Absolutely Loved

Absolutely couldn't recommend a better wedding photographer. Steve was BEYOND AMAZING!!!! Everything from the initial messages to the engagement photoshoot to the communication in-between that and the entire wedding day. He's insanely funny and witty which worked great for our wedding setting and style. He's insanely responsive. Gets shots that we didn't even realize he was getting from the entire day and even with the random switch up of rain the entire day on and off he still managed to get us killer shots indoors and outdoors thru the whole day. We loved his work for both the engagement shoot and the wedding, we loved his personality and flexibility. Mostly we love how insanely quick he got us our entire gallery after the wedding. Coming from someone who also does photography I know this man has his camera skills dialed and I absolutely LOVED seeing that. Can't say enough nice things about him. If you're considering using him for your event..... all I can say is DO IT, YOU WONT REGRET IT.

An amazing photographer!

Steve was recommended to us through our close friends who also used him as their photographer. Upon viewing his portfolio and website, I immediately knew that he was the perfect fit as our photographer! Steve took both our engagement and wedding pictures. They turned out absolutely stunning! He truly made the engagement photoshoot and big day an amazing experience. We love his sense of humor and ability to make us feel entirely comfortable. We received many, many compliments about Steve after the wedding. We even got our sneak peak the night of our wedding, which was icing on the cake. I highly recommend choosing Steve as your photographer for your special day!

Fantastic, A++, 10/10 Would Hire Again

Steve and his assistant Katie did a great job covering our special day! Steve is very easy to communicate with and very direct which is something I really appreciated. We were fortunate to book him for our wedding and we're so glad we did. The quality of the photos are incredible and beautiful and we will cherish them for years to come. Steve and Katie were professional, effective and efficient. The turn around on the photos was amazingly fast, my husband and I were married on a Saturday and we had the link to the gallery Sunday night. On top of that, the sneak peaks and social media posts were made Saturday night after Steve and his assistant departed our event! We had an engagement photo shoot that was included with the package we selected and the engagement photo shoot session was a great way for my husband and I to get comfortable with shooting with Steve prior to the big day. I'm still in awe of how beautiful all the photos look and how wonderful and natural everyone looks in them. I appreciated how quickly I was able to share photos with people who were not able to attend the wedding. They all remarked that the pictures were wonderful and they really got a sense of what it felt like to be there.

Absolutely worth every penny, a pleasure and joy to work with, I cannot recommend Steve Bowman Photography enough! Thank you again Steve for helping us document such a special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
