Michael was like a magician! I felt well taken care of, he was perfect at giving me direction and I am truly in love with my photos! I highly recommend them and will be back for more photos.
I have so many wonderful things to share about working with Michael and Elite Headshots. I'm launching a new website for my business and knew I needed some professional photographs. I'm an introverted person who loves to focus on other people. The idea of being in front of a camera was so nerve-wracking! Michael met with me in advance to help me feel comfortable and give me the pep talk I needed. We mapped out a vision of my website and online marketing strategy in collaboration with my website team. Michael consistently pitched various ideas for future marketing during my sessions. He was clearly thinking about my business as if he was a consultant AND a photographer. Best of all, my photographs express exactly what I want them to. As Michael put it, they are my "digital handshake." He made an uncomfortable-for-me situation breezy and safe. If you're in the market for a photographer to help you build online collateral for your business, Elite Headshots is IT.
When choosing a photographer, comfort and guidance are key, and Michael excels at both. He has an incredible ability to put you at ease, making you feel like you’re working with an old friend from the very start. His talent goes beyond capturing moments—he creates magic with his photos, ensuring that the entire experience is enjoyable. If you’re looking to elevate your LinkedIn profile or need the perfect headshot, Michael is the photographer to trust!
I cannot recommend Michael enough! From start to finish he went above and beyond to ensure the photo shoot was a success. His attention to detail is unmatched, and he truly knows how to catch the best angles for each person. Michael is incredibly easy to work with, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Let’s be real— he knows exactly how to make get the perfect shot! Whether it’s head shots or lifestyle photos, his work is excellent. I would absolutely recommend Michael to anyone looking for top-notch photography. You won’t be disappointed!
I've hired and worked with Michael many times in a variety of projects. He has always delivered photos that exceed my expectations - some of his pictures taken for me have been seen millions of times and I love how he has a style that adapts to the talent and moment. I keep coming back to Elite Headshots Austin because I know their pictures mean we're going to the next level.
I have been photographed hundreds of times over my long career and I have rarely experienced a photographer as kind, funny and relaxing as Michael Samaripa — and the pictures showed the result! My entire team felt comfortable and attractive! Thank you, Michael, for making us all feel welcomed in what is always a stressful time: Picture Day!!
