Human Graphics

dding in OBX 1 1/2 years in advance. I come from a family of professional photographers so this aspect of our wedding was the top of the list and I wanted to ensure my family wasn't working on my wedding day. When it came time for the wedding (which was only accessible by 4-wheel drive) Stephen ensured a great day by arriving over an hour ahead of schedule as he did not want to risk being late due to the terrain. Even though he was only one person, it never seemed that way as he effortlessly bounced around to capture all moments before, during and after the ceremony. Whenever Stephen had an idea for a great shot he would give us ample time as to not take away from enjoying the night, and he would practice the shot before we were in it. He was flexible with the amount of shots we wanted with a variety of people and in separate locations, always up for a new challenge and always with a smile on his face. I would recommend Stephen Cannoy over and over again.

local photographers for our western NC wedding, and we stopped looking as soon as we came across Stephen's portfolio on his website. As a non-photographer, I was stunned by the unique characteristic of his work. My then-fiance and I got in touch with him, and from the start Stephen was warm, friendly, prompt, and professional. On the day of the wedding the team arrived early to look around the grounds, and working with them for all stages of our day was easy. My husband and I felt so comfortable working with them- they were fun, easygoing, and hardworking all at the same time. They caught all of our highlights from the whole day. Please consider taking a look at their website and reaching out to Stephen- we were so happy with our experience and now have amazing photos capturing our special day!

style wedding and Stephen was just like a member of our family. Not only is he a creative genius, he is really easy to work with and a super cool dude. He captured the magic of the day so beautifully that I tear up every time I look at our wedding photos. Hire Stephen-- I promise you will be absolutely delighted!

do just about anything to make sure we were happy. He captured my ideas and made them his own throughout my bridal portrait session and wedding. It's like he read my mind! The hardest thing you'll have to do is pick our your favorites to be printed. They are all perfect! Thank you Stephen for going above and beyond to make my day special!

love with his photos! They are amazing and the quality is so much better than anyone else I had looked at! He has even already started editing and posting previews! Everyone is very pleased :) I would definitely recommend him to anyone 100%!

en I found Human Graphics and what a blessing it was! Stephen was amazing, he and his partner were on the ground on tables in the action and never missed one moment!! (Without being in the way and in every photo as well.) They were very professional and fun and very affordable. And one of the best things is they stay in contact with you and answer every call text or email even at midnight when I was sleeping and woke up with a crazy question. After reviewing all my photos he captured beauty I hadn't even noticed the day of the wedding. And words can't describe how ecstatic I am with my photots! If I could do it again I would choose Stephen Human Graphics every time. Thank you guys a million times!!

with. The quality of the product was amazing and we've received so many compliments on both our engagement and wedding photos. I have absolutely no complaints about this vendor.

ately thought his work was fabulous. The more I saw his wedding photos, the more I fell in love! I decided that I HAD to have him for my wedding one day, no matter what else I ended up with. Sure enough, he did not disappoint. I feel like my husband and I both became fairly close to Stephen because we had to stay in such close contact. We had a short engagement (5 months) in a very busy season, so we were constantly chatting about when & where to meet for everything. I chose the package that included engagement photos, bridal session, and 8 hours of wedding day photography. I cannot be any happier that I will have these photos for the rest of our lives. Again- If you want to focus on QUALITY of your photos, don't look anymore!

me a lifetime. If you are lucky enough to stumble across Human Graphic's website or ad, do yourself a favor and take it as a sign from above, there is not a single reason to search any farther for your photographer!!! The first time I spoke with Stephen I was blown away by his friendly personality and passion that he had while speaking about wedding photography. The guy's passion literally revolves around capturing beautiful moments between you, your family, and your new husband/wife at the most (or at least, very close) important day of your life. Considering his extreme talent, I expected him to be much more arrogant and assuming... however, he is extremely humble and kind, which makes the day of the wedding an absolute breeze. Come our wedding day, Stephen went above and beyond to capture all of the special moments that occur throughout the day. His demeanor makes it so easy to be yourself and comfortable around him, allowing him to get the most breathtaking shots. Literally, the first time I saw the wedding album I started to cry, because the images were truly that touching. On a personal note, my dad passed away two months after our wedding. Having an amazing photographer like Human Graphics has allowed me to look back on that day and almost feel like he is still around, because the pictures are that animated and truly that touching. My only regret regarding hiring Human Graphics was not hiring them for our engagement pictures, our rehearsal, and every other aspect of the wedding. Do yourself and your spouse a favor- make a lifetime of memories with Stephen, that you will have to look back on through everything that life throws at you. You will absolutely not be sorry!

our shoots were as well. He made me and my husband feel so relaxed. I felt we were with a friend on our engagement shoot the entire time. For our wedding, he did an another incredible job and the best thing was that you didn't even notice he was there. When I saw my pics after the wedding I couldn't believe how much he captured. You know he loves what he does and he does it so well. I am so happy to have had him as my photographer - We couldn't have picked a better one!! Thanks again!

getting the preview photos, and communicating about the pictures. For two people not used to being in front of the camera, it means a lot to say that we had a good time. He really made us feel comfortable, was a gentle and kind presence, and gave really simple tips that made a huge difference in how our photos came out! It was really a pleasure. We highly HIGHLY recommend Human Graphics.

unning from a church to a state park, and he still found time to get many artistic photos of the bouquet. He also let us purchase our photos on a DVD, I hope he still offers this option! Make a list of must have photos (which I advise with every photographer).

"our guy". I called and set up an appointment. We felt like he was our neighbor, he was so easy to talk to, broke down the logistics of photography so we could understand what we would actually be purchasing. When we had any follow up questions, he was quick to respond, a super important trait when you're in the middle of the madness of wedding planning. I warned him that I absolutely hated being in front of the camera. I'm shy. I knew I'd be a wreck on my wedding day, with all eyes on me. He put me at ease, saying I wouldn't even know he was there. When our big day arrived, Stephen arrived early, catching all the important shots with our family and friends. He was right, he was like a ghost. The first time we saw our photos, I could not believe some of the pictures and the things he captured. Every time we look at our wedding photos, we are able to relive the best day of our lives, shot by gorgeous shot. Stephen Cannoy certainly has a God given gift capturing the smallest and most precious memories. My husband and I could not be more thrilled. Scott and Scarlett Stapleton

sed pictures during the wedding day. Everything is candid and shot in the moment. His use of lighting and ways of editing photos is superb and better than any other professional we could have asked for. Stephen is also wonderful at shooting bridal portraits. His equipment is top notch and he makes perfect use of every backdrop. He tells you exactly what to do and makes the whole process super easy and laid back. For what we paid for, everything was definitely worth it. Stephen stayed with us from the time the bridal party started getting ready at 11 in the morning all the way until around 10 at night; that is more time than any single photographer I had ever researched. My husband and I would recommend Stephen to anyone as their wedding photographer, whether you are having a super fancy expensive wedding or something small and simple. He has a way of transforming any event into an elegant affair with his work.

calls and emails quickly, was very laid back, and was fun to work with. Neither my husband or I love to be in front of the camera, so Stephen's style was perfect for us because we never felt like we had a camera in our face. Very professional and talented photographer!

ited what we needed and even stayed at the beach and met with us to take some honeymoon pictures on our sailboat trip. He brings along a lot of great tools like extra lights to make sure you get the best pictures. He did an amazing job capturing our special day from the pictures we've seen. He fit right in with our family and guests and was very accommodating to our style and our requests. We were not disappointed at all, you won't be either.

than impressed!
