    Incredible Experience with Steve!

    Steve Stanton is such an incredible photographer. All throughout my wedding day, I had my friends and family complimenting how nice he was and how easy he was to work with. My husband and I don't love taking a ton of pictures, and he made all of the photo shoots efficient and painless. And the pictures we got at the end of the process were so incredible!! I can't recommend him highly enough. We will be using his services for all of our milestones in the future!

    The most incredible photographer!

    Steve is a true professional. He created a relaxed fun vibe, and took some of the most incredible wedding pictures I've ever seen. He has an artsy touch and does a lot with focus, angles, and spacing that makes these truly unique- not just any photographer can capture the emotion, feelings, and "in between" moments like he can. He's also an incredible listener and will capture the moments you'll cherish forever!

    Steve is the best!

    Steve was such a pleasure to work with leading up to our wedding and on the actual day. He made us feel so comfortable and we ended up with the most beautiful photos. We opted to get a book as well which is so well made and beautifully curated. Would highly recommend working with Steve to anyone!

    Steve is the Absolute Best!

    We met Steve at a friends wedding a few years before our own. After we got engaged and were looking for a wedding photographer, we kept comparing everyone to Steve and no one could compare! Steve traveled to the East Coast to do both an engagement shoot and our wedding. Not only are Steve's photographs incredible (those speak for themselves), he is an absolute pleasure to spend time with. Steve made us feel incredibly comfortable and we had a blast working with him! He feels like an old friend from the second you meet him and does a wonderful job of getting to know family and friends throughout the day. We can't say enough nice things about Steve and his work!

    Worlds Best Photographer hands down

    I discovered Steve's work 15 years ago-before I even met my husband. The moment I laid eyes on his photos I decided he would be photographing my wedding day. I followed his work on Facebook and instagram and 15 years later he photographed my wedding. I don't have enough words to express my thanks to Steve for his magnificent art. In addition to being a wonderful photographer he is one of the nicest most genuine people you will ever meet. He is excellent at providing direction to those of us who don't know how to model :) and providing exquisite candid and posed photos with that classic epic background that we all know and love Steve for. He is amazing to work with when planning your day. Hire Steve. You will cherish the art he creates for you for the rest of your life. BRB going to wallpaper my entire house in photos now. Thanks Steve!!!!!

    Steve is phenomenal!

    Steve is absolutely PHENOMENAL! We hired Steve to photograph our wedding in Vail, CO and engagement pictures in Boulder, CO and both events were INCREDIBLE. In both events we had our dog join for a few minutes of pictures and Steve was patient while our dog got adjusted and calmed down to ensure everything was very natural looking. Steve is so attentive and listens to your needs to ensure that all pictures that you want are taken and then he incorporates his own creativity to better the shot or to take additional shots. On our wedding day, he made everyone feel comfortable with being themselves and you can really see that in everyone's faces. Several of my bridesmaids, before we even got our pictures back said, "wow! Steve was so awesome! If I ever get married I might have to get his contact information". Now that we have received our pictures back, and my bridesmaids have seen the pictures, they have said "I am DEFINITELY going to have Steve photograph my wedding!" His work is incredible and his personality is infectious. 10/10 and beyond! My parents loved Steve and all of our guests are blown away by his work.

    Captured everything and more!

    I don't know how my brother found Steve, but I thank God he did! Steve did a stunning job photographing my brother's wedding! The photos were beautifully done and I was so pleased with how much love and emotion was captured in all the photos. Steve truly has a talent for capturing special moments and candid shots! He has such a calm presence that makes every photo feel natural and relaxed. I would Steve recommend for any couple in any setting! He made everybody laugh and was very open and kind-hearted. He was so attentive, observant, and professional. You should have no worries because he will capture the entire experience and more! I felt like I was reliving the wedding while looking through the photos!

    Best Creative & Professional Wedding Photographer

    Steve Stanton is an incredibly talented photographer and is super personable in his craft. We hit it off with Steve right away for our engagement session. He picked a great local spot in Evergreen and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera, as we have never had professional pictures done together as a couple and it can be a bit intimidating. Steve coaches you along the way and is your hype man! We worked around some crazy weather, but regardless he captured some beautiful shots. Steve brings a laid back, attentive, fun and creative energy to each session leaving you on the edge of your seat to see the end results. And they are absolutely unbelievable. His turnaround time is remarkable with how many photos he takes after editing and delivery. And he sends you a sneak peek the following day, which really builds the excitement! Leading up to the wedding we had a phone call before to go over moments we really wanted him to capture so he understood our vision; planning is key and Steve makes you feel like a priority while encouraging, support and cheering you on in your new marriage. On the wedding day Steve brought a fresh and chill vibe and provided a hands-on experience unlike any other. We are incredibly happy we found Steve and we couldn’t be happier with the end result and a new friend. Thank you again Steve!

    I highly recommend Steve!

    Steve Stanton was an amazing photographer to work with. The minute we spoke with him, we could feel his positive energy and enthusiasm. It is apparent that Steve loves what he does. Throughout the process, Steve continued to stay in touch, which was such a reassurance for us. On the day of the wedding, Steve had such a calm, yet professional, demeanor. Overall, we are very pleased with our final photos. Steve truly captured the raw emotions we all experienced that day. What a talent Steve has. I would highly recommend him!

    Steve is incredible - couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

    Steve was incredible! From our initial phone call with him all the way through our wedding, he was amazing to work with! We had an adventurous photo shoot for our engagement pictures up in the Colorado mountains and they were absolutely stunning. On our wedding day, he captured every single moment and it has been so amazing to relive our special day through his pictures! I would definitely recommend Steve to anyone - best photographer my wife and I could have asked for!

    Awesome Photographer

    Steve is an awesome photographer. He knows how to capture the moments that create the great memories. He takes pictures that I have never seen captured before. He uses his surrounding to make awesome pictures. He is great to work with. During the entire day I could say I saw Steve taking the pictures but never felt awkward or that he was invading our space. He is great capturing those raw moments and he LOVES taking pictures of little ones who try to hide from him. Thanks Steve

    Amazing Photographer You’ll be SO Happy You Hired!!

    Steve is amazing! We both really connected with him and felt like we made a good friend through the wedding process. What we liked most about Steve is he doesn’t force photos to happen, he works off your natural chemistry together as a couple. Steve was very accommodating for both our engagement session and wedding. We were from Califirnia so he worked hard to find the best photo spot that showed Colorado’s true beauty for our engagements. He even faced some rainy weather since we were unable to reschedule! Steve is also so personable. He makes it easy to be yourself and have a good time while taking pictures. We really enjoyed his calming and humorous company for the engagement shoot and the day of our wedding! Steve ensures all photos that are important to you are captured! I really appreciated this as I had several key photos I wanted the day of! Steve is also great at managing chaos with large wedding parties! We had 17 people total! We would give Steve 10 stars if we could! He’s the best at what he does!

    Remarkable!

    The memories that Steve captured from our engagement and wedding day are jaw dropping! We have had so many compliments on our photographs. Not only is he crazy talented but he is one of the kindest people I’ve met. He was able to calm my nerves during the engagement shoot and the wedding, and that’s a feat in itself! Even our wedding guests mentioned how kind Steve was. He loves his job and you can tell. He continued taking photographs beyond the 8 hours that we had paid for! We will definitely be driving to Colorado every couple of years for him to take our family photos. He was more than our photographer, he became our friend. Thank you Steve! You are worth all the money in the world!!

    Every good and praiseworthy thing you read or hear about Steve is absolutely true! I reached out to Steve after seeing his portfolio online and seeing he had previously shot weddings at our location. I told our wedding planner we had booked him and she knew then we wouldn't be let down! We live out of town and Steve was so flexible with his pricing and packages that since we were unable to do a free engagement shoot he put that towards the wedding album for us! On the day of- oh my gosh I think every single one of the bridal party members and our family members said how impressed they were with how easy and stress-less the pictures were and how smooth Steve makes everything go. We just got our photos back (only a month after the wedding too!) and we love them dearly. We can't wait for the album! Thanks for your passion in every shot Steve- it is truly seen and appreciated!

    True artist

    We hired Steve for our destination wedding in Colorado. We had been following his work for years before and fell in love with his style and artistic approach. We knew 100% he would be the photographer we chose when we eventually got married.

    Once we were engaged he was the first one we contacted! The whole process in dealing with him was very smooth, accommodating and professional. He made the experience in booking someone half way across the country very easy and we totally trusted him.

    On the wedding day he was absolutely crucial in helping us maintain a schedule, our sanity and an all around good mood! He was so laid back and reminded us about the schedule and totally made things so much easier.

    When we received the photos back we were (not surprisingly) blown away. They are amazing and completely what we expected.

    We would 100% recommend Steve. Total professional and true artist.

    Steve did such an amazing job. His personality helped to make our wedding day stress free and that much more enjoyable for my wife and I. We spoke with Steve via FaceTime and phone calls before our wedding and could tell from the beginning he would do and amazing job, and he did. His photojournalistic style mixed with classical photography was just the right mix for us. Our winter wedding was set in the snowy mountains of Colorado and we lucked out and got a beautiful sunny day. His use of light and contrast was just awesome and the photos speak for themselves. We would highly recommend Steve to everyone. Thank you again Steve! We couldn't be happier!

    I wish I could give Steve even more stars. He was so much fun to work with and made the day and the process a complete pleasure. We also couldn't love our photos any more than we do. We've gotten so many compliments on them, and had a friend tell us that she showed her wedding photos to her photographer because she wants hers to look like ours!

    Seriously, Steve is the best.

    The moment we saw Steve’s work on his website and Instagram, we were blown away. It wasn’t just the stunning beauty of his photographs, but his unique yet-still-classic style – more photojournalism than conventional wedding photography – which was exactly what we had always wanted but assumed didn’t exist in today’s wedding industry. Until we discovered Steve. We couldn’t be happier with the photographs he produced for our wedding, and every time we look through them we find something new to admire. Steve didn’t just produce gorgeous photographs – he brought to life the story of our wedding weekend, chronicling the most meaningful moments and capturing all of the love and emotion of everyone involved.

    But Steve is more than just a brilliant photographer – he’s an exceptional human being. He is kind and genuine, charming and witty, joyful and full of life. For him, photography isn’t a job, it’s a passion. He loves it because he loves people. We learned all this during a phone call before we had even asked him to photograph our wedding. We figured that we would ask the questions and he would provide the answers (about his pricing, availability, style, etc.), but we were surprised and impressed when he started asking questions of us – about our relationship history and families, our jobs and interests. It was clear that he didn’t think of us as just potential clients, but as two human beings who he wanted to get to know on a personal level.

    Whenever we think about our wedding weekend, we think of Steve – his calming presence that put everyone at ease and his exuberant personality that put a smile on everyone’s face, his uncanny ability to seemingly be everywhere and nowhere all at once, and the ease with which he adapted to the sometimes unpredictable flow of the ceremony and reception, always managing to be at the right place at the right time. Steve is a true master of his craft. We feel incredibly blessed that he chose to share his prodigious talents with us.

    Steve was absolutely one of the highlights of the people we worked with to make our wedding happen. He is so personable and professional, he put us truly at ease during our engagement shoot and wedding which is saying a lot for two people who don't typically feel the most comfortable getting our picture taken. He has a truly rare skill of being able to wrangle so many people (we had 11 in our bridal party not even considering family pics etc), and keep them on point throughout all the photographs and really gave us such a gift in having ourselves and our closest friends all looking like babes at once!
    He has such a talented and creative eye, he photographed so many moments in our wedding in such a way that really captured the feeling of the people we love and the details of the day while still being so candid and beautiful.
    Not only was he so awesome before and during the event - he also had our photos completed, edited and uploaded to in LESS THAN A WEEK
    We feel super lucky to have had him photograph us on our wedding day, you should get on it ASAP if you want the best of the best.

    Steve Stanton is one of a kind. He added so much to our wedding day. I had face timed with him, as we live out of state, about 5 months before and his energy was so positive and he really took the time to get a feel about what I was expecting and ensured questions were answered. I say "I" because my groom didn't have any expectations for photos and was honestly dreading them! Steve and his second shooter helped to put my groom at ease and made the experience of photos with my camera shy groom much smoother than I thought possible :)
    I always thought I needed to give a "list" to make sure all the shots I wanted were captured. In the end, that became too overwhelming and I just left it in Steve's hands and I'm so thankful I did. He captured moments I knew I wanted, and many I didn't know I did; ideas I would have never thought of. His photography is really a bunch of works of art and our families and friends are just as impressed and excited by them as we are.
    Steve was there from the time we were getting ready with our separate wedding parties, which is a pretty personal time. He just fit so well and added to the vibe. He even hand delivered my notes to my groom and my dad. He arrived and got right to work but it was so fun to have him there too. So many of our guests have said to us how personable he is.... I mean he was treasured wedding guest in the end. He even helped to guide guests to the right place of the venue when I could see they were not where they needed to be... Not in his contract to do that! But he did and was so kind about doing so. Our timeline was thrown off by me not being ready and the rain, but Steve handled it and made the photography process smooth the whole day. So many parts of our wonderful day are a blur, but we have incredible photos to cherish forever! I could write a book but it doesn't allow.
