Cin Sent on 01/29/2010At first, we were hesitant of using TK photography for our October 4, 2009 wedding. We had read some poor reviews and interviewed several different photographers. We decided to meet with Steven, owner of TK Photography, and were impressed with his work. Looking at our photos we are so glad we did not listen to the reviews and went to talk with him. We feel he worked with us to help get the exact photos that we wanted. He met us at an off-site location the day of the wedding and shot for over an hour. He then met us at Rainbow Gardens and worked until after the ceremony. He had a 2nd photographer shoot the reception. The pictures are amazing! TK photography is reasonably priced and does an amazing job! Thanks for the wonderful memories we now have forever! -

Crisandra Sent on 08/24/2010Steven Shofner photographed us July 31, 2010 and our pictures are Beautiful! He knows exactly what kind of shots suit the bride best and he's so encouraging and fun to work with. Our pictures were retouched and enhanced to create a new look. His studio was conveniently located next to the venue and if I had to do it all over again I would definitely choose TK Photography. -

Robin Sent on 06/03/2012Steve was the photographer for the ceremony. He took many pictures before the wedding and listened to the photos I wanted. I had a very long veil and wanted to make sure it was captured. When I walked in to walk down the aisle the veil was not flowed out and Steve asked someone to make sure it was completely shown which I loved that he did that. His assistance took pictures at the reception and was wondeful I looked in his direction and he was there. The picture were ready in a week and all came out very nice. -

Kendal Sent on 10/11/2011We loved Steven! He had both of us smiling from ear to ear. And his assistant that took over for the second half of our wedding, Michael Caristo, was just as good. We got our photos within a week from returning from our honeymoom, so two weeks after our wedding. We got all 500 AND with the touchups! I (the bride) can't stop looking at them! They are amazing. Such a great job! You won't regret using them! -

Danielle Sent on 06/13/2011Great photos, but photographer was on edge and did not handle stressful picture situations very well. We are happy with our pictures overall, but wish the photographer was nicer and more personable with family, friends, and most of all us (the bride and groom). -

Samantha D. Sent on 11/07/2015Good photos, not great. Did some weird editing. Was a little unprofessional during the wedding. Customer service after the wedding was not the best. Was provided with the venue, otherwise would have chosen someone else. -

Steven Shofner Photography did our wedding on February 3, 2019 and we used him because he was included with the venue that we chose but had he not been, we would have gone with someone else. Originally we tried to hire him to do our engagement photos but getting him to call us back was a hassle and he kept pushing us to do the session at a golf course that he likes to use but we were having a themed wedding and we really didn't want 'just another outdoor photo shoot in las vegas'. We finally gave up on trying to pin him down and chose someone else.
We still used this vendor for the wedding, though, and we're honestly not thrilled. Right off the bat the photographer gave off serious creepy vibes when he told my maid of honor and I to 'touch each other' in a very oily voice. He made several members of my family uncomfortable and more than one of my bridesmaids asked if he was a pornography photographer. He took a grand total of 3 pictures of the groom by himself and all three were taken in the same pose. For the rest of the groom's pictures he had him shaking hands with his best man and his dad. He kept pushing us to "show teeth" even though both the groom and I prefer to smile without teeth. He's clearly been at this for a long time because his photography screams 1980's from posing to editing - everything looks extremely outdated and many of the pictures look like they were taken with a disposable camera. There are some good shots but there are more shots that we won't use than there are shots that we love. He also missed a lot of the details that made our wedding different from every other wedding like the health and mana potions, the fact that both my bouquet and the throwing bouquet contained LED lights etc. He left early so we didn't get any pictures of the last dance or the grand exit to the limo with our guests holding LED swords in an arc. He did, however, manage to get lots of pictures of cleavage. He seemed to really enjoy taking pictures of my sister whenever she was bending over (to sign the guest book or while in the process of sitting down) and there were more pictures of the belly dancer that performed at the wedding than there were of the groom and all of the groomsmen combined. He didn't take a single picture of the ring, he only took two pictures of the pre-ceremony quest and both of them are just of people's backs so it's impossible to tell what's going on in them.
One upside is that we retain all rights to the photos which is great and a really hard thing to find these days. They were sent to us on a CD Rom with a handwritten rights release on the envelope. Some of the photos were edited but much of the editing is dated. Most of the editing work consisted of putting an antique filter on the pictures which makes my dress look black. The most advanced editing was to cut a standing photo of us from it's original background and super impose it atop a close-up silhouette of us kissing complete with a Photoshop CS1 Halo effect that I haven't seen anyone use since 2003. We received over 300 pictures but if we remove the duplicates with antique filters on them, the bizarrely edited throwbacks, and the pictures of me sneaking a post hair/makeup cigarette before the ceremony there are less than 100 that can be used and most of them are duplicates of the same shot/pose. I really wish we'd chosen a different photographer and I'm relieved we hired a videographer who stayed for the whole reception! -
