I chose Steve after vewing many photographers. Steve's cost are right up front and you know what your paying for, and what you will get. I waited until very last minutes to find a photographer, but am glade I waited so long. Steve's ability to keep the kids happy was amazing, my daughter still talks about it. I LOVE that they give you many FREE things. I went to see about 10 photographers total, and Steve was the only one who gives you a free engagement session. All others, charged over 500.00 just to go in and a couple photos taken. Some of the pictures with the glasses were bad, but honestly, I think we all loved every one. I love some of the "last minute" shots steve thought of. My all time favorite is the one he took of me and my husband standing with the picture window behind us and we look like were shadowed out. Steve also did everything I asked, his "your every wish is my command" was awesome! I know he stayed WAY longer then what I paid for, but honestly, because of that and the awesome photos, he has a customer for life.. Not just weddings, senior pictures for my daughter, family photos, reunions, pets, anything I need a photographer for, I will be calling Steve.
