    "Kyle is one of those photographers, that when you see their work you feel a need to catch up to their level. I fell in love with his photography the moment I laid eyes on it. Every picture is a different story and it is all vividly written. I hope he keeps up the good work because I see big things coming from him."

    "Kyle Michaels messaged me via flickr a couple months ago and said "Holy shit man you live in Akron!? Let's shoot" I said to myself, I think i've seen this dudes photos before... I looked and sure enough I did, there were two photos that I remember specifically seeing, both photos really showing intense emotion and really giving you a feel for his true photo skill. One of Jera and the other of Josh. It was beyond impressive to see the emotion and detail captured in the photos. I instantly showed my friend Josh Lovullo his photos and he was in awe too. Kyle is a great dude who I can go to for advice any day and knows exactly what he's talking about. Great dude. My suggestions: get to know the guy, you will not regret it!"
