The best decision

We cannot thank Stephen enough for capturing our wedding day!! His work is beautiful and we are so lucky to have found him. Everyone in our bridal party and our parents kept raving about how amazing he was and how he brought such a great vibe to the day. Everything felt natural and me and my husband had so much fun. I was nervous we wouldn't be the best "models" but he made us feel comfortable and be in the moment with one another. We'll treasure these pictures and memories forever, and I know they will always make me smile. Stephen is SO talented, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Wedding Photos

Stephen took our wedding pictures and he truly captured our day in the most beautiful way. When describing what my vision was for photography he went above and beyond and used all my ideas and added his special touch to them. The weather was awful but he used it to his benefit and was able to capture unique pictures. Before the day ever came I told him I wanted a lot of pictures of just us throughout the day not posed, these pictures could say 1,000 words he truly went above and beyond in making sure we had not just photos but that each photo had a memory.

The best of the best!

If I could give Stephen a million stars I would. By far the best choice of my wedding was hiring Stephen. As you know pictures are what last forever and he captured my wedding perfectly. I so blessed and grateful I found Stephen and that he was available for my wedding! Thank you Stephen for everything!

My wife and I couldn't be happier! We hired Stephen Atohi for both our wedding and engagement shoot, and the results were incredible. Not only were the photos stunning, but we were impressed by Stephen's professionalism on the day of our wedding. He was able to adapt flawlessly to unpredictable weather (and an equally unpredictable DJ). He made the most of a rainy day, and some of our favorite pictures are the ones he took indoors while it was raining. We recommend him without hesitation, and we'd advise any newly engaged couple to give him a call.

Stephen is an amazing photographer! My wife and I look at his photos even a year after the event and are still in awe. Him and his fellow photographer were very professional and knew exactly how to stay behind the scenes but still be right in the middle of the action. We highly recommend using him for your engagement shots as well as wedding. We had zero stress going into the wedding (as far as photography goes...) because we knew what a great job he was going to do ahead of time. No more searching necessary, Stephen is your guy!

You will not be disappointed with Stephen Atohi Our photos came out amazing - even on an off and on rainy wedding day! He made sure we got out to the beach for more photos when it was clear, and no photo we wanted was missed! They just captured everything beautifully and were so great to work with. Stephen even jumped in to show me the wobble when it came on and I had no idea how to do it! Also - he went above and beyond with some special editing to one of my favorite photos of the day. He was able to remove something from it that just really helped to make it a more special and perfect photo. I wish I could do our wedding day again and again and I would definitely choose Stephen Atohi every time :)

Stephen and his team were simply AMAZING!!! They captured exactly what I wanted and even things I didn't know I wanted until after we got our pictures back. He was also very fun and easy going and helped keep me calm knowing he had things under control on his end. We used Two Young for our engagement pictures and my bridal portraits, and for our wedding. We were not disappointed in any way with any of our pictures!! I'm so thankful we have these beautiful photos to cherish forever. The packaging of our USB drive was also unique and beautiful in every way! We love Two Young Photography and can't wait to be able to use them again in the future!

Two Young Photography is probably the wisest "vendor" choice I made regarding my wedding day (aside from my venue). I am so glad I asked questions and got to know Stephen via email and even met up with him while in town for another wedding. He made planning a wedding from Atlanta so much less stressful than it could have been. Stephen and Michelle (and their assistant) were specular the day of. They were on point yet relaxed and have such a great energy that it was easy to just be in the moment. I had no doubt they would do an awesome job, but they exceeded expectations. Two Young Photography interpreted and understood exactly our "couple style" and was nothing short of elated and in love with our photos when we received the preview within two weeks! You cannot and will not be disappointed with this team!
