The Studio

For more than a decade, I’ve photographed the moments people return to, and finished them as the artwork their homes are built around.

Michael Anthony Photography is an international award-winning portrait and wedding studio. A portrait practice built across private studios in McKinney, Texas and Los Angeles, with select weddings documented across nine countries.

The Artwork · On the Wall

Made for the Walls of Your Home

A photograph in a folder is a file. Ours are commissioned like paintings, designed for a wall in your home, hand-finished, and installed under a picture light.

In Their Words

Our wedding was perfection thanks to MAP. The quality is out of this world, and the service is incredible.

The Finishes

Made to Be Held

Not everything belongs on a wall. The rest of the reveal leaves in your hands, bound, matted, and boxed by hand.
