Michelle Buscemi Photography, catholic wedding photographer - about me.

Hi!

I'm Michelle.


I married my teenage crush and now live my best life in northeastern Oklahoma.


Marriage is beautiful, blessed, and beyond all expectations. In it you will find true sacrifice, immense love, outstanding joy, and a few burned meals. Nothing beats it.

Michelle Buscemi Photography, catholic wedding photographer - about me.

That's why I love weddings


It has nothing to do with the party or the food menu.


It has everything to do with the reality of what is truly happening. Man and woman becoming one and creating something blessed and beyond our understanding.

Michelle Buscemi Photography, catholic wedding photographer - about me.

The Party and food doesn't hurt, though!


You can't keep me off the dance floor. I might have a camera in hand, but that won't stop me from dancing the night away. You got married!! If that isn't reason to eat cake, what is?


This is a night that calls for JOY and overflowing celebration. We're going to make sure your photos reflect that.

WHAT EVERY COUPLE OUGHT TO KNOW


You are in a season of decision making! From the date of the big day to guest lists, flowers to centerpieces, from spiritual preparation to where to live, everything in front of you is in some sort of state of needing to be figured out.


And that, my friend, is hard work!


But trust me! It is so worth the hard work because all of it will culminate to a beautiful life worth living. Don't let the decision making getting the best of you. When the to-do list becomes too much, put it all aside. Take a break. Get outside. Go on a date and hold hands. Remember what this all about and who you are choosing to do it all with.


Then, when you're refreshed and filled with joy, come back to the decisions. They'll wait for you.


That being said, choose your photographer with care because your day is worthy of beauty and the photographs should reflect that. Choose without pressure or haste.

STEP FOUR:

Let the planning begin


Closer to the wedding, we will create a custom wedding timeline, taking into consideration lighting and non-moveable start times, and schedule in the rest so everyone knows where they need to be, when the makeup needs to be done, and who actually needs to stay behind after the ceremony for family pictures.
