Outstanding photographer

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.

Awesome 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.

Set your worries aside and hire this guy!

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!
