Stephen is an amazing communicator and he initiated meetups in the area before we even hired him just to introduce himself and show his work. He was definitely one of our favorite vendors from the get-go; the guy is super friendly and makes you feel really comfortable, along with being confident in his ability. Throughout the planning process he was on top of everything and made sure all expectations were set.

Then comes the wedding day and my goodness, the guy probably worked harder than anyone, running everywhere, making sure we’re on time, using every moment to capture good shots, and even during his break, always being on the lookout for us. I think our guests loved him and his energy, and even though we’re very shy when it comes to people taking pictures of us, he made us feel really comfortable and didn’t push for anything. Not that I’ve hired many photographers, but I feel he pretty much did a perfect job that night. We are so grateful to him and would recommend him to pretty much anyone looking for a good photographer.
I hear from other couples how long it can take for a photographer to send back photos, but Stephen must have worked on them immediately since we got them within 2 weeks, and the photos are absolutely incredible! It's not just nice shots, there's definitely an artistry and intentionality behind every photo. We couldn't be happier with his work and he is definitely one of our favorite vendors and recommend him to anybody needing a photographer. Forever grateful Stephen, thank you!

Stephen was such a wonderful photographer we had the pleasure to have for our wedding. He was very talented and easy going; he made taking photos go very smoothly throughout the whole ceremony and reception. He blended in with everyone and had seamlessly flowed with our timeline capturing all of our special moments. I would recommend Stephen to anyone who is looking for a wonderful photographer.

We had originally booked a different photographer, but then we realized we needed someone with more experience with larger weddings and photographing tea ceremonies and Wester weddings which is why we ended up booking Stephen! He scheduled a FaceTime call with us to get to know us better as well as ask us what were our priorities in terms of what we wanted photographed for our wedding. We had continued to stay in touch over the next few months before our wedding.

On the day of our wedding, Stephen showed up earlier before his arrival time to scope out our venue and find locations for us to take our photos. Throughout the day, Stephen was so incredibly patient with us, our wedding party and our families and friends. He took so many gorgeous photos of our wedding day which were all available about two weeks after our wedding! He perfectly captured the energy and excitement of our big day and I'm so glad we went with him as our wedding photographer.

We highly recommend Stephen! He made us feel so comfortable to take photos. My husband especially feels awkward doing photoshoots, but Stephen’s humor and charisma made both of us loosen up, which made me and my husband look more natural in photos.

Stephen also came up with photo ideas so quickly on the fly! We would just be walking around and find sceneries with pose ideas so quickly! Best part is that he’s extremely fast to take photos, so we didn’t get tired out during our shoots. Highly recommend Stephen!

We are so happy that we had Stephen for our engagement and wedding. He is very easy to work with and the photos were amazing!! We are looking forward to see his again at our Family photo session.

Stephen’s photos for our wedding are incredible. We love how his photos tells story about our wedding, Thank you so much for capturing these special moments for us! . Highly recommend!!!

It’s is a long overdue review! My husband and I hired Stephen Cheng as our wedding photographer 10 months ago. We could not have made a better decision! Before we decided to work with Stephen, I looked at and contacted quite a number of wedding photographers. Stephen stood out as a photographer who is authentic, down to earth, genuinely loves what he does, and truly desires to bring out the best wedding experience for the couple. Due to weather we made changes in engagement photo session location and time a few times. He gave us suggestions when we need ideas and accommodated us as much as he could. On the wedding day, Stephen did more than what is required of his job - he coordinated with the videographers to make sure the wedding was best covered and was on his feet working the entire wedding. We had a long wedding (Asian tradition) and provided light lunch after the tea ceremony in the morning (in addition to the evening banquet), but Stephen chose to skip the lunch and went to the wedding site early to get better prepared. I was very touched by his deep care for our wedding. As the bride, I am very grateful to have someone I can trust like Stephen to take care of such an important aspect of the wedding. And did I forget to mention, we all love the photos!

We would recommend Stephen without reservation to any couple who are looking for a trustworthy, hardworking, professional, and talented photographer for their wedding!

Stephen is the best! He was so easy to work with and easy to communicate with for our wedding. He is so sweet was always easy to communicate with before and after the wedding. She made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and captured so many great candid moments. He finalize the timeline with us before the wedding and made us enjoyed our wedding moment. Thank you Stephen for capturing all our wedding and making us feel like family that day.

My mom first found Stephen and we both knew immediately we found the photographer for my wedding. His attention detail made for some beautiful photos and we look through our wedding album almost daily. Even my husband, who hates taking photos, had fun with Stephen's sessions. I am absolutely going to refer to friends and hope to see him again for future events!

Stephen was our wedding photographer for our fall wedding in Beaverton, OR. We couldn't recommend him enough! From our first meeting, he was so personable and knowledgeable. He is very professional as well. The day of, he arrived early to the venue and was ready to rock-n-roll when we arrived. He played a big part in maintaining the overall flow of the day. We had a couple big group family shots, and he was able to handle the large crowds and keep us organized. Stephen also has a very artistic eye. The photos we received turned out great. You'll be able to download your photos from his electronic website, but Stephen will also mail you a copy of all your photos on a USB drive. Stephen also made us a slideshow of highlights from the wedding day that we were able to share with family. He was able to capture so many special moments! We are very happy with his work. You won't go wrong if you hire Stephen to be your photographer for your special day. Thanks Stephen!
