I can't rave enough about this photographer and his staff. I hired them for my wedding and kept them in my phone for the day I would need him again. The day came, I'm pregnant and had him take my maternity photos. I'm so in love with my photos, that I can barely put it into words. Â He had so many awesome ideas, gave me plenty of options and was a total professional. I totally recommend this business for any and all of your photography needs. Can't wait to work with them again! Â Thank you Marcel!!! More...

Marcel is a gifted individual. He has the ability to capture genuine and priceless moments in a photograph. As I browsed through my pictures to upload a few samples, I was overwhelmed with joy by the beauty and significance of each image. I felt as it was reliving my wedding day all over again. Fortunately, I've had the honor to work with him twice, and both experiences were phenomenal. He has also worked with my sister and delivered equally amazing results. I intend to work with Marcel on future projects together, and highly recommend him if you are looking to hire a great photographer with an impeccable track record. More...

CelsPhotography is truly exceptional. I chose them for engagement photos, and loved the shots so much I used one of them in the wedding invitations. I was so impressed that I hired him to shoot my wedding because of their value and great portfolio, I was blown away by the photos I received. I am in love with my wedding photos. Marcel and his staff are so professional and so fun to work with. So I will have them shoot my upcoming maternity photos too. My best friend chose them for her daughter’s communion photos and loved every photo. I highly recommend him and his staff. Truly the best choice!! Five stars and beyond. More...

Marcel and I shared photography as a hobby, but over the years I've watch Marcel grow into a true professional. His abilities rival the best in the business, as the personal touch he provides each client eminates from his personal passion for the art, dedication to learning and perfecting his craft, and ability to dig into the client's needs.

My family and I have used Cel's photography numerous times for such important events such my son's 1st birthday, my daughter's 1st birthday, my mother-in-law's 60th birthday, and family christmas pictures and Cel's photography NEVER DISAPPOINTS. Not only is the owner professional and punctual, but super personable and makes all of your guests and family members feel important and are alway well represented in all of the prints. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CEL'S PHOTOGRAPHY! More...

Wow. I wanted a semi-candid (not in a studio) photo shoot, so I hired Marcel based on a web search. (Me: MBA, Corporate America, etc.
so I know what is good and what is just so-so.) Wow is all I can say. The high quality of his work, the incredible portraits and photographs, his flexible schedule and *extremely* reasonable rates are absolutely the best thing since sliced bread.
We did some semi-candids in one location, and then Marcel offered to do some more in another location so I had a nice selection to choose from (he sends you a link to download all the photos, as well as a link to print some if you want). He is incredibly professional and, for those in the know, he is like a young Annie Leibovitz! He has incredible talent. If I could give him 10 stars I would.
I was not paid to write this review, nor did I know Marcel before I met him today. The whole photo session was completed in 30 minutes, though he offered more time I need to go to a meeting.
HIGHLY recommend, with the highest level of professionalism you can get... (and frankly, he is inexpensive... sooner or later, he should raise prices).

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Proper lighting, artistic imagery, understanding your clients wants not yours..
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is your desired image? How do you see this image looking at its completion. Would you like a mood board created to display this imagery your trying to achieve. Are there any challenges or concerns you have in having your image taken?
What do you love most about your job?
I love meeting new people and accompanying them from start to finish in achieving their desired imagery. I love it when it all comes together and seeing their reaction at the end of the project.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Photography has been a passion of mine for over 20 years! I have several family members and friends that have taken interests as hobbies as well as professionals. In 2009, I purchased my first professional camera and later started my own company in hopes to make photography a full time career!
Why should our clients choose you?

Event Photography
Event photography captures the essence of unforgettable moments, transforming them into timeless memories. It's an art form where every click freezes laughter, joy, and heartfelt connections. Through the lens, we beautifully document the atmosphere, emotions, and unique details of special occasions. From glamorous weddings to lively concerts, event photography encapsulates the magic of life's celebrations, allowing you to relive those cherished experiences again and again. With each frame, we paint a vivid story, ensuring that the treasured moments of your event become eternal treasures.
Portraits
Portraits are an exquisite art form that captures the essence of an individual, freezing their unique story in time. With every click of the shutter, a photographer unveils the hidden beauty and emotions that reside within their subjects. Portraits are a breathtaking interplay of light and shadow, showcasing the interwoven tapestry of human expression and personality.
Through meticulous composition and skilled use of lenses, a photographer can create a mesmerizing connection between the subject and the viewer. Each portrait becomes a window into the soul, revealing the depth of a person's character, their dreams, and their vulnerabilities. It is a delicate dance, where the photographer becomes a silent observer, capturing the raw and genuine moments that define a person's individuality.
Portraits are an invitation to unravel stories. With every glance, the viewer is drawn into a world where emotions speak louder than words. The subtle nuances of a smile, the twinkle in the eyes, or the gentle curve of a cheek—all become poetic brushstrokes in the photographer's masterpiece.
Through their lens, a photographer has the power to immortalize moments of joy, resilience, and introspection. The artistry lies in the ability to create a visual symphony that resonates deeply within the hearts of those who behold it. Portraits are not merely photographs; they are gateways to memories, evoking nostalgia and touching the very core of our humanity.
So, step into the world of portraits, where a photographer's vision takes flight, transcending the ordinary and revealing the extraordinary. It is a journey where the beauty of the human spirit unfurls, leaving an indelible mark on the canvas of our souls.
Wedding Photography
Wedding photography is an artful and rewarding experience. It involves capturing the joyful moments, emotions, and details of a couple's special day. As a wedding photographer, I strive to document the love, beauty, and unique story of each couple. This means anticipating precious moments, finding the perfect angles, and using lighting techniques to create stunning images. It's a balance of candid shots and carefully posed portraits, ensuring that every photo reflects the couple's personality and the atmosphere of the event. Wedding photography requires skill, creativity, and the ability to work under pressure, all while delivering timeless images that will be cherished for a lifetime.
