Absolutely Perfect

My wedding was almost a year ago, and I still cannot get over how great Stephen and his second shooter did for our wedding. I'm the groom and I knew I wanted a few specific shots and every one of them came out great. I am still sharing the pictures a year later I am so happy!

Easy breezy

Stephen and his assistant were great. Easy to work with, organized, and friendly. Stephen is a fantastic photographer with a lovely creative eye. They definitely helped make the day go by without any hiccups.

The photos were finished in a reasonable amount of time and we loved how everything turned out! I would definitely recommend getting the Polaroid package added on too!

Beautiful video and easy to work with!

Stephen was great to work with! Absolutely amazing value. Stephen took our direction on what we wanted to have on our video and gave us a perfect video to remember our wedding day. Also a super quick turnaround. Would highly recommend him for your videographer.

We had the absolute BEST experience with Stephen! We met a few months before our wedding and told him our vision, and he went above and beyond our expectations. He was personable and didn't make us feel awkward at all like some videographers can do. Half the time we didn't even notice he was there! He was great with our bridal party and with our guests. He captured every moment. I will hold this video close to my heart forever. I still watch it all the time and cry every time! He's the BEST!

Stephen was our photographer for our October Wedding, and he did such an incredible job. I wanted very natural and "non-posey" photographs and he definitely delivered. Our wedding day was full of rain, and his creativity still gave us amazing photographs regardless, making the day and memories of the day even more perfect! Absolutely love him, and his style, definitely worth the money as he is a very reasonably priced wedding photographer for the ATL area as well! A++ in my book.

Stephen Payne Photography did such an outstanding job! They exceeded our expectations with our wedding video. They were so patient, thoughtful, quick to get back to you with answers or the finished product. Very friendly as well. I’d suggest Stephen Payne Photography to anyone! It’s well worth it!

Stephen Payne was one of our best vendors when planning the wedding. The video he provided to us was excellent quality and we really appreciated how he edited our highlight video. The video was about 4-5 minutes long but he chose the perfect scenes to best highlight our 4 hour wedding. Stephen was very professional and super accommodating! He even allowed us to do a wishing well for our guest which was no additional cost. If you’re looking for a videographer who can film your wedding while also being super inconspicuous and not sacrificing quality or killing your budget, then Stephen fits the mold. I would recommend him to anyone.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
