We don’t take photos, we craft legacies.

Meet the team behind the lens at Michael Anthony Photography

Our Story


Michael Anthony Photography began with a camera, a dream, and a relentless drive to create art that matters. From our early days in Los Angeles to the heart of Texas in McKinney, we’ve grown into a studio known for telling stories—your stories—through compelling imagery.

Founded by husband-and-wife duo Michael and Jennifer Loizzi, our journey started with weddings and evolved into a full-service luxury portrait studio crafting renaissance-era style portraits for families. Michael and Jennifer have traveled the world capturing luxury weddings and portraits for athletes, celebrities, and politicians and have taught other photographers the foundations of posing, lighting and business for over a decade.

Today, MAP stands at the intersection of fine art and emotion—delivering museum-worthy wedding & portrait photography that reflects the most important chapters of your life.

We built this studio to preserve emotion, not just memories
— Jennifer Loizzi // Co-Founder

what drives us

  • Emotion First

    We want your images to help you feel the emotion that was happening at the moment they were captured

  • Legacy Matters

    What should we know about the services you provide? Better descriptions result in more sales.

  • Commitment to craft

    Every image is created with precision and intention. From posing, to lighting, to post-production

Your story is our art

There’s something different about what we do at MAP. This isn’t just about a camera—it’s about connection, trust, and creating something that will outlive us. Watch to learn who we are, how we work, and why we believe your story deserves nothing less than art

Locations

  • Dallas / Fort Worth

    Our brand new location located at the corner of Frisco, McKinney, & Prosper. This is our new headquarters and operates. Nestled on the border of Frisco and Prosper, our McKinney studio is the heart of our Texas operations. Designed from the ground up in 2025, this nearly 2,000-square-foot creative space was built with intention: two dedicated camera stations, a state-of-the-art projector reveal room, and an in-house production headquarters. Here, our clients experience more than a session—they walk into a cinematic environment where lighting, music, and storytelling converge to bring their portraits to life. Every detail, from the handcrafted backdrops to the curated artwork displays, reflects our passion for timeless imagery and elevated service.

  • Los Angeles

    Our California roots run deep, and the Valencia studio is where it all began. Located just north of Los Angeles, this space has shaped our signature style for over a decade. With its refined natural light, high-end Profoto lighting equipment, and carefully curated sets, this studio is where emotion meets editorial. Clients love the hand-painted backdrops and the relaxed elegance that defines the West Coast MAP experience. While our brand has grown nationwide, Valencia remains our creative anchor—a space born from passion, refined by experience, and fueled by the stories of every client who walks through its doors.
