Thank you for taking us to that beautiful secret beach in L.A. County for our recent engagement photo shoots.
Right before our photo shoot, my fiance and I both were kind nerves and couldn't loosen up (specially my fiance), he doesn't like taking photos even though I made him to do so and we always end up with his "funny looking face" in all the photos. But you really made our photo taking experience to a different level and we end up with had tons of fun at the beach and when we got our photo shoot done, I had doubt on you and I wondered if you really took any shots? Also I'm worried about if we will get my fiancé "funny looking face" photos again. The next day when I got our pre-view photos - wow, we looks magnificent in every single photo that you took, that made me believes your amazing and unbelievable shooting skills. I couldn't even find other better words to describe those engagement photos that you took for us!!! Thank you so much and you made our memorable moment unforgettable!!!
We love you!!!

I'm so fortunate to have had the opportunity to be photographed by Mike. My family and I feed off of his passion. Every photo captured our feelings and the very essence of what drives us. I was totally confident in Mike's experience as a photographer. I needed my photos to tell a story of confidence, loyalty, and determination; consequently, the mission was accomplished! Thanks, E.

Once I found out that I was pregnant, I immediately knew that I was going to have Michael take pictures of my baby. When she arrived, we took her in for her first pictures. They came out amazing and everyone complimented us on their beauty.
My daughter loves taking photos with Michael and he has a keen eye of taking amazing portraits and action photos. I have no doubt that he will be the photographer of choice for all occasions.
Thanks for the amazing work and we love forward to working with you in the future.

Micheal Chevas has a keen eye of photography. He knows exactly what his clients want and is able to bring the truth and natural beauty through the lens. As one of his clients, I received an amazing headshot that truly showcased personality. When I saw the process of Micheal's work, he carefully presented the facets of the photo which made me feel so fortunate in working with a gifted professional. Because of his unique style and quality of his work Micheal is set apart from others in gaining the trust of his clients. And having a talent of bringing one's true beauty through the lens, I would give me him two thumbs up.

When we arrived at michael's studio, I was impressed with the setting. My daughter Jeann-Yvette is 5 years old and has had her photo taken before, but never to the exact detail and lighting michael uses. He constantly looks for the right pose and angle for his shots. 5 year olds can sometimes be difficult to manage, but michael was able to put her at ease, with his professionalism and patience. once the shoot started he kept the momentum going, shot after shot, it was fluid. My wife and I were very happy with end results of the photos taken; oh, and so was Jeanne-Yvette. We highly recommend Michael Chevas and wish him great success. Thanks Michael, Samuel Garcia, Porterville Ca.

I first met Michael on a fashion shoot down town Los Angeles. I loved his energy that he brought to the set and made the other models including myself very comfortable. His style is remarkable and fresh. I signed with a huge acting agency and needed head shots. There was only one person that could meet my standard and then some. His passion for photography makes you the client excited to be in his presents. He's a true artist and the his just simply the best in the business period!

Michael is extremely easy to work with and he makes you feel comfortable right away in front of the camera. I also liked that even when someone else came in for their headshot appointment, he didn't rush our shoot and took the time to get all the shots as necessary. I notice everything and was very appreciative of this. I'm so incredibly thankful for the chance to work with him and hope that we'll get the chance to work again.

Working with Mike was a wonderful experience. He gives great direction and really brings out the best in you, which translates in every image. In addition, he's able to tailor his knowledge and experience to the individual, and this yields amazing results. He's a personable guy, easy to work with, very professional, and prompt with his follow up; I had my DVD of high-res images just two days after our shoot! I'd love to work with Mike again.

Michael is an amazing photographer! Not only is he professional, knowledgeable and an expert in his field, he is also warm and caring which made the whole session magical! He photographed my teen daughter who is initially very shy and reserved, and was able to relax her enough to bring out her personality and spark, do amazing things with light, and make her feel like a professional model. The pictures look as if they were done for vogue! She loved the experience! Michael was generous with his time and knowledge. He was simply incredible in all aspects. We feel honored to have met him and had him do my daughter's portraits.

I had an incredible session with Michael. He is truly an artist and knows how to bring out the best in his subjects. His attention to detail goes beyond trying to just capture an image. He delves into the depths of your persona and brings up the things you love in playful conversation during the shoot which puts you at a state of mind that yields the most natural and beautiful results possible.

I just have to say that Michael is just GREAT! His work just flows naturally and the result is the best possible.
I had so much fun in my photo shoot and I couldn't believe when I saw the results.
Thanks Michael!

I needed new headshots and Michael Chevas came highly recommended. MIchael was a one man show that delivered. Within a couple of hours, I had so many killer shots, it was almost annoying trying to pick the best ones. We had shots and looks with such variety, it really gave me a ton to work with. Michael has a great eye and is quickly able to shoot you in a way that you look your best. You still look like you, but your best you!

I was referred to Michael by a well known makeup artist/stylist, I was on the hunt for a new agent and needed some new photos as well as headshots. Wow, I am so happy I decided to go with Michael, he is so laid back and such a cool guy to work with! He brought out the best in me and took his time,
I've submitted my photos to agents and received great feedback! I highly recommend Michael for anyone who wants great pictures!
Thank You Michael Chevas!

I met Micheal Chevas at a sake bar off the side of a highway to everywhere and after a five minute conversation recognized an honesty in him that's hard to find these days. Soon after we set out on that same highway for a photo shoot in the desert with his fantastic hand-picked crew.
The result: nothing less than some of THE best shots anyone has EVER taken of me and a bill so paltry simply because Michael liked my music and really wanted to support a fellow artist he believed in.
From that one day shoot I have used his photos for my latest Hope Nation album cover, press, web-site representation and would hire him again, only this time overpay him if possible...

This is real talk...I had multiple photographers that I was considering from past shoots, from suggestions from my agent/manager and other friends in the entertainment industry. However, when I went to Michael's site and saw how smooth the site, pics and ironically music was playing there. I thought "this dude has style". I was right and the shoot was great. Not only did he have style but he also was a patient and nice guy. I plan on working with him again 100%. Peace and Love RJR

Michael Chevas is a very distinguished fashion photographer and an innovative portraiture. To me, he is the wonderful visual artist.

I've been modeling for 24 years and acting for 15. I have shot with A LOT of photographers and completely LOVE Michael. He not only took amazing pictures but he has a way of working with you, during the shoot, that makes you feel comfortable and open. If you're not open your pictures will not turn out. That's the secret to great photos.
Thank you so much Michael:)

He constantly is up on the in style fashion trends and stands solid on his own style of shooting.
