The biggest piece of wedding advice I received from my sisters was to hire a good photographer. We met with several choices from the Columbus area but really felt we clicked best ...
with Steve. He made us feel very at ease and was very flexible with the changes we requested throughout the process. Steve is very dedicated to producing the best quality photos, even if it means taking his time to do so. It rained during our ceremony, but you wouldn't know that looking at the pictures! Steve was simultaneously great at fading into the background and being out of the way when needed and also directing people for our portraits. Multiple family members complimented him to me as we looked through our photos online. He has a great positive attitude and frankly a good sense of humor. We will cherish our album for years to come.
Steve has a raw talent that you don’t typically see in wedding photography. He did our engagement and wedding photos- he was on time, professional, patient, kind, and his photos ,...
of course, were breath-taking.
When my husband and I sat down to look through our wedding album, he both laughed and cried, as we were able to relive the day through his photography. He not only captured the raw emotion of myself and my husband, but our guests as well. This is really what we loved about Steve and his art work; he got a mix of the beautifully posed photos and photos of the ‘actual’ moments in the wedding (people laughing, dancing, crying happy tears). When looking through the photos, my husband and I actually stopped and said, “Wait, how did Steve get from here to there so fast? I know he was there, but I didn’t even see him! “ We’re convinced he might be part ninja, haha!
Thank you again, Steve, for capturing our wedding beautifully. We are so impressed with you and your work.
Kindly, The Nichols Family
We absolutely are obsessed with our wedding photos from Shoot 2 Studios. The picture quality is amazing! The detail photos are so great and they put you right back in the moment! I...
loved working with Steve, he was very accommodating and made sure we got every image we wanted. I know I will be looking at these photos forever, and I am so happy we went with Shoot 2 Studios. Their packages and pricing are great and you will not be disappointed! I highly recommend this photographer!
Steve was great! Our photos are absolutely stunning. He was very flexible; we'd originally planned to do a package with engagement photos but ultimately decided not to, and he allo...
wed us to swap that for an additional photographer. We lost the light after the ceremony and were shooting portraits in the dark. I thought they'd come out terrible with the floodlight he was using, but they are absolutely perfect!

d family come in from out of town and there were so many special little surprises throughout the event.
Steve captured every emotion impeccably from surprise, to joy, to sad remembrance of a lost loved one whom we were all missing that day. He gave my mom & dad the "wedding" photos, they've never had and they are just lovely.
Steve is incredibly professional, responsive, careful, and has a keen attention to detail. Every special request was over fulfilled and he was a friendly, easy going person the whole way. We have a weird family, so that says more than you know!
I would absolutely recommend Steve & Shoot 2 Studios for upcoming events and will absolutely retain his services the next time we are in need of an area photographer!
Thanks Steve!
We chose Steve to capture our morning wedding and we couldn't be happier with the photos!! He did an AMAZING job capturing the true emotion through-out the day. When looking at our...
portrait shots you can just feel the happy emotion coming out of the photos and they don't look stiff or staged. Steve really knows his trade! He showed up at 7am for our morning wedding and didn't stop taking photos until the very end. We had so much fun shooting with Steve that we didn't even notice the unbearable 90 degree heat (although it probably helped we fed him donuts ;))
When I first started the wedding photographer hunt, I had no idea what I was doing. I highly recommend checking out the FAQ page on the Shoot2Studio website.
If I could do it all over again, I would hire Shoot2Studios no questions asked. We love our photos, and they were worth every penny! At the end of your wedding day, one of the only things you have to remember the day is your wedding photos. Steve captured the magic and I can't wait to see our professional album :) All of my friends are so impressed with our photos and my unmarried friends have already asked for his contact info!!
Photography and music were iurntwo priorities for our wedding; Steve whole-heartedly nailed the photography. He had shot a friend's wedding, so my amateur-photographer husband was ...
obsessed with his work. Steve was so professional and did an excellent job at capturing all of the moments, big and small, without being in the way. Because of that, we felt that our guests could still really enjoy the day. I loved that he captured so many intimate moments, and ones I didn't even know he was there for. Steve later shot my sister's wedding, so he feels like a family friend and there is no one else I would recommend.
Steve was wonderful to work with! We knew we wanted to book him for our wedding as soon as we read his FAQ on his website (go read it, its insightful and hysterical)! In person he ...
was easy to talk with and we knew his personality would fit in well with our wedding. During our engagement session and wedding day he was creative and made us feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera! He was timely in responding to emails and flexible with our requests. We got a link to our images exactly when he said we would and they were perfect! A great mix of the candid moments we didn't know we wanted captured and the posed portraits. We couldn't be happier we chose Shoot 2 Studios as our wedding photographer!
We loved working with Shoot 2 Studios/Steve! He came highly recommended to us and after meeting with him it was a no brainer! Engagement pictures and wedding pictures all turned ou...
t AMAZING. He was fun to work with, super laid back and let us just enjoy the moment. We love all of the photos from the day, but one set was incredibly special to us. During toasts, he captured a photo of both the moms (mother of the bride/mother of the groom) that are just perfect.
We cannot thank him enough for making the day special and capturing our day so well! I highly recommend Shoot 2 Studios.
Just received our photos, and they are awesome! Steve did a great job. He was a pro day of, my husband and I were worried about feeling awkward with all of the picture taking, but...
Steve was great. He made us feel comfortable, and outside of the portraits, we barely noticed he was there. Turn around time was quick for the photos, and we love the results!
We loved working with Steve. After needing to terminate our contract with our original photographer, he was recommended and we couldn't be happier. His prices were very reasonabl...
e and he able to work with the budget and timeline that we had worked out with our original photographer. He and his 2nd shooter were professional and were able to direct our loud and distractible families during the chaos of group photos. Our first look was magical and we got several wonderful photos. My gift from my husband was a snow machine to create snowy pictures for our 60 degree and sunny February wedding, and Steve was super accommodating in making this work and got some awesome shots! He was prompt in getting us our photos after the wedding. Thanks again!
Shoot 2 Studios is fantastic. Steve is incredibly professional and goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot. Steve had done my sisters wedding and there was no question afte...
r seeing her beautiful photos that I would also choose him to do my photos.
Steve was an absolute wonder to work with. I met with a handful of photographers when looking for my wedding and they all had impressive work to show me, but when it came down to ...
it, Steve was a no brainer. I first met him at a wedding show and I think he was one of the only vendors that didn't bombard us, or try to shove his pamphlet at us or give us a long sale speech. He really didn't need to sell- his work speaks for itself. He is fun and relaxed, and someone you would want as a guest at your wedding, not just working it. He was never imposing, but knew when to step up if need be. It is easy to tell he is passionate about capturing great photographs because he truly loves it, not just because he has been paid to do so. But speaking of payment, his prices are extremely reasonable in a field where costs can be sky high. He was punctual and responsive and helped give suggestions for other vendors he had worked with in the wedding industry. Choosing a wedding photographer may be the most important thing to many couples who are planning their wedding. It's can be stressful and you will meet a lot of great photographers who all have different styles that fit different personalities. Just do yourself a favor and at least meet with Steve. If he's not the right fit, you'll be out a few minutes of your time and probably a good cup of coffee, but you won't have to worry about him filling up your voicemail or inbox with follow ups on why you haven't chosen him or stuff like that.
Steve was one of the highlights of our wedding. He made the planning process so much easier (we organized the wedding from 3 states away with no wedding planner or day-of-coordina...
tor), and the photos are fantastic. He was also not phased by the rainy weather, unexpected construction at our venue, or lack of A/C in the church. Even better, Steve was 100% in favor of our one crazy photo request - we (the couple) met at an archery club, and wanted photos with our archery gear in our wedding clothes (the photos are to-die-for!!). We didn't even notice Steve during the ceremony - and that's a compliment, as we have wonderful and close-up photos, but didn't notice any distractions during the wedding itself.
I was also a huge fan of the fact that Steve's website is extremely thorough, with all prices presented up front. Our initial meeting with him felt like hanging out with a friend.
We recently book Shoot 2 Studios for our wedding. Steve was awesome and very professional. He has a great eye for the perfect shots. We cannot wait to see his final product!!!!
Steve is AWESOME! Very professional while keeping things fun, light and comfortable. He made scheduling easy, was perfectly prompt and came up with great ideas for photos.
I found Steve on The Knot, after meeting with 3 other photographers that just didn't really understand what I was looking for. Steve and I met for coffee and within 5 minutes, I kn...
ew I wanted to work with him. He's quirky, and isn't afraid to try something different. He shot our engagement session and did some amazing things with lighting that solidified my confidence in his creative eye. He isn't afraid to get dirty and quite literally was rolling on the ground to get the best shots on the wedding day - that's dedication! He found cool spots for us to do our first look and made the entire bridal party feel comfortable during formal photos. He was incredibly calm and professional when we decided to take giant family photos and had to wrangle family members. I have seen 2 preview shots (our wedding was only 2 weeks ago!), and cannot wait to see more!!!!
We had the pleasure of having Steve shoot our wedding. Steve was nice and professional during our first meet and an overall fun guy! One of my
favorite things was that my husband s...
urprised me
by bringing my dog to my hotel room and Steve was ok with that! He got some amazing shots of her, I'm sure! He also had everything under control. The first look was awesome and he worked outside in the super hot weather just to capture some awesome photos of us. Some of the people from my bridal party had suggested some poses and Steve was more then willing to do what we wanted. Initially I told Steve that we wouldn't have family photos, only bridal, however, he ended up letting us shoot a few with the family.
Also, Steve is pretty creative and knows what he is doing. There are a lot of photographers out there who are so expensive but you won't get that creative touch. Steve has a lot of options for packages and al la carte which worked well for us!
We haven't received our pictures but I know they will be amazing. My party has even told me how great Steve was. Thank you!
Choosing our photographer was one of the decisions I struggled with because I wanted the pictures to be perfect. After my initial meeting with Steve, I knew that he was our guy. ...
He was so professional and easy to work with. He did our engagement pictures and the wedding and did a phenomenal job!!! I really cannot say enough. His turn around time is incredible. I had both sets of pictures back to me in less than three weeks. We got married on a 95 degree day with crazy humidity and he was still able to get all of the pictures, keep everyone else calm and happy, and smile throughout the process. I highly recommend him and will definitely be using his services in the future. Not for a wedding, of course. Hire him!
Steve was absolutely wonderful to work with. As my wife and I are both decidedly non-bridezilla, and know nothing about photography, we really threw everything into his hands and ...
trusted him to make amazing photos out of the day. He completely delivered! All of our photographs are beautiful, and true to our personalities. Our outdoor wedding looked gorgeous and lush (and magic!) through his lens.
Steve did a great job directing us when needed, and dropping to the background instinctively to catch the impromptu moments that are truly memorable. We would gladly recommend him to anyone!
My groom and I knew that there was no way we could settle for anything less than the best for our wedding day photography. Steve and his team brilliantly captured our traditional ...
Indian wedding which was colorful, hectic, and sometimes went off schedule, and he never missed a beat. When we look at our photos, we feel like we've been transported back in time to enjoy our day over and over. Steve is punctual, a breeze to work with and very concerned about helping to make this the best day of your life. Thank you, Steve, for making us so happy with our choice. You are among the best of them!
To me, a wedding photographer is one of the most important vendors to select as the photos are the only lasting reminder of the day once it is over. I interviewed about 7 or 8 diff...
erent photographers before deciding that Steve was our guy for photos and I am thrilled about the decision. His talent and photojournalistic style is evident in his work and he is easy-going yet hard-working which made for excellent photos while maintaining a stress-free atmosphere on the wedding day. He is great about staying on schedule and listening to any shots that you want as well as integrating his creative eye and going above and beyond what you ask for. We love our getting ready, first look, ceremony, and reception photos and feel Steve’s talent is very evident in the photos which are a great mix of candid and posed portraits. Most of the shots that are our favorites are ones we didn't even realize he took.
We loved Kate (his second photographer) who was so friendly and also had a great creative eye. We are very glad of his flexibility to customize a package for a second photographer and extra hours the day of which were definitely worth it. Any time we asked for additional detail shots or shots with friends, he was very accommodating as well. During the course of the day and night, he gave great direction on poses as well as let us do our own thing and let our personalities shine, so it was the best of both worlds. The details of the day that were carefully planned were also perfectly captured in an artistic way that captured the essence of our wedding. I would recommend Steve and Kate to anyone for wedding photos and we are so happy to have wonderful photos to look back on from our wedding day thanks to him!
Simply put, Steve is a genius. There is no other way to describe the incredible way he captured every unique detail of our wedding. He has a truly creative eye, is an expert with l...
ighting, and overall he's professional yet extremely fun and easy to work with. Hire Steve, trust him completely and he will blow you away with his photographs. You will not be disappointed!
My husband and I are beyond impressed with the work Steve did. Our wedding photos are beautiful and something to be cherished for a lifetime. Photography is the most important thin...
g about the wedding! I am proud to have these photos to look back on forever. Steve was like a ninja, getting all the good shots without disturbing a thing. He made it look very natural. When we got our pictures we were so surprised of all the shots he got because we didn't see him take most of them! 10/10, amazing job.
To say the least, me and my husband are usually very awkward in pictures and we were thinking about not hiring a professional photographer, but I am so glad we did. Steve did a won...
derful job and was a delight to work with. I appreciated that he didn't make us take a lot of super posed shots, which allowed for our pictures to look more natural and truly show the real feelings and atmosphere of the day.
I am more than happy with how our pictures turned out. Steve is very creative and talented and is a fantastic photographer.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Steve and Shoot 2 Studios. One of our first decisions as an engaged couple was to see if he would be available & willing to travel for o...
ur wedding. We encountered Steve at our close friends’ wedding & I was impressed by how attentive yet relaxed he was; when their photos were available for ordering there wasn’t a bad one in the bunch.
Working with Steve was one of the easiest relationships we had during the wedding process. He was flexible in creating the best package for us & in helping us with constructing the photos we wanted/needed, & also our general timeline for the day. He is professional & knowledgeable, but also super friendly & easy to be around.
The day of our wedding was perfect. Steve showed up to the location where the ladies were getting ready & steadily guided us through photos, without any apparent rush or urgency. He took care to get shots that were important to me & some that I threw in at the time, but also had flexibility to stop in the lobby & get some extra, last minute photos. His second photographer, Katie, did the same with the guys. My husband is not the most comfortable in front of a camera, but we ended up with some stunning, very natural shots from them getting ready. Steve & Katie were both perfect throughout the ceremony—I was surprised by some of the photos they managed to get, because I didn’t once see a photographer anywhere! They got every picture I wanted, but without being intrusive or obvious. We had very limited time after the ceremony to take photos in the church, but Steve made sure that we got every photo we wanted, without anyone feeling pressured or in a rush. Outside, he took some impromptu photos of us on the streetcar line that ended up being some of the best of the evening.
During the reception, it was like no photographers existed because of their stealth & unobtrusiveness, yet they were easy to grab if we wanted a special shot. Steve had warned us that it would be difficult to wrangle people for some larger group photos, but was extremely helpful & patient while making those happen. He and Katie took the time & care to get some special photos of us as a couple, & to make that as comfortable and easy process as possible—resulting in some amazing photos of the camera shy groom.
Then we got the photos back. Wow. We picked Steve because we didn’t want any kind of stylized shenanigans with our wedding photos, & it was the best choice. Every photo is a clear, honest portrayal of what was happening in the moment. In looking at them I can recall every second of the day. That said, Steve did a stunning job finding the smaller moments in the day and capturing them perfectly. One of my favorite photos of the entire day is of the three flower girls leaning over the pew, captivated, as my husband & I say our vows—a moment no one else would have seen, but there it is captured forever.
Steve & Shoot 2 Studios was one of the best out of the excellent choices we made for our wedding. He is comfortable, genuine, and stress free, while also producing insanely excellent work, which we will treasure. I’m certain that no one else would have been able to do the job as kindly, professionally, and with as warm a sense of humor as Steve. We will be able not only to remember our day with the photos he captured, but also to remember that it was a fabulous experience to have worked with him as the photographer. We can’t recommend him enough!
I really want to make sure I take my time with this review. Brace yourselves; it's long.
My now husband and I were in a pickle of sorts. For reasons I won't go into detail about i...
n this review, we had to fire our out of state photographer 2 and a half weeks before the wedding. Things were so bad that we would rather have risked not having a photographer at all than having that one.
Anyways, about 5 minutes after that was done I logged onto the knot and searched for photographers. Shoot 2 Studios came up immediately. I sent a message and not 5 minutes later Steve messaged me back. By some miracle he happened to be available on our date! Within 20 minutes we had set up a meeting for the very next day. We got to see some of Steve's work online and we knew we loved his style and approach but seeing the pictures in person really just solidified everything for us. We had a meeting with another photographer afterwards but it was really a no-brainer. We called Steve later that night and had him send over the contract.
As for the day of, Steve was great. Not only does he take amazing photographs but he's also just a genuinely GOOD person and made our experience that much more special.
After the big day is over and everything is said and done; these pictures are all that's left and we couldn't be more thrilled with them. They turned out to be everything we could have wanted and more.
Steve, from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU! You saved our wedding day.
To those of you reading this review, I hope it has helped you make the decision to hire Shoot 2 Studios. You will never regret it.
Love,
Sarah + Trevor
I cannot say enough good things about this photographer. Steve was so nice to work with, and you can tell the photos are of extremely high quality. He did a great job of capturing ...
the feel of the evening, the formal shots were perfect, and I was happy and surprised to see the creative ways he photographed the details of my wedding. There are zero cheesy pictures. I know my fear about booking a professional was that we would pay a bunch of money and have corny pictures. That definitely did not happen!!
Another huge plus is that he got my wedding photos back to me really quickly. Also, my husband's family kept commenting on how professional and nice the photographer was! What a nice added bonus!
To summarize: book with Shoot 2 Studios - I had a great experience and I'm sure you will too! Now I'm off to start making a million photo albums :)
This guy... he's an amazing photographer at a great price! We hired Steve for our July church wedding. We were on a tight budget but knew we didn't want to skimp too much on some d...
ecent photos, and Steve's prices are great for his quality of work. Ours wasn't the 'fanciest' of venues out there, but his photos make it look magazine quality. He captured both the big and little moments, details that couples probably won't notice themselves the day of amidst all the rush. He was even so nice as to instruct us how to cut the cake when neither me or my new hubby knew how (newbs under pressure, haha). He's sensitive to the desires of the couple and isn't overbearing. Sometimes, you barely notice he's there. Great guy to work with, professional yet fun, very creative and artistic. Being an artist myself, I'm pretty picky with photo quality, but Steve has gone above the bar. He knows his stuff and we're happy to have had him shoot our big day. Would recommend him in an instant!
Photography was a big priority for my husband and I. We wanted someone with a journalistic, candid, and authentic style and from the moment we found Shoot 2 Studios from their web...
site, we knew we found a match! Steve was easy to communicate and work with from the beginning.
On our wedding day, Steve was so much fun to work with. While we still did some of the posed portraits with the wedding party, I felt the magic was in the candid moments throughout the day that captured that raw emotion of it all. Both Steve and our second photographer Brian have such an eye for great photos with an attention for little details that made a blur of a day into something way more memorable. Each one of our (hundreds of) photos are simply amazing and we were blown away when we received them. From capturing every detail of our wedding day in a unique style, to mastering tricky lighting, editing, and everything in between, Steve is a top-notch photographer. We would book him over and over (and over) again. Thank you.
We had the pleasure of working with Steve for both our engagement session in New Orleans and our wedding in Suttons Bay, Michigan. Steve was not only easy to work with, but captur...
ed all of the unique qualities of the two very different venues we had chosen. He did a great job of capturing moments in time that we wanted to remember forever. He is very personable and easy to work with, he did a great job of making us feel comfortable for the photographs. We will definitely be using Steve for future events in our lives.
Steve took wonderful, high-quality photos at our intimate wedding that really captured the emotion of the day. He made us feel comfortable, was extremely reliable, and got our pict...
ures back to us quickly. We were very impressed by not only the quality of his work but his willingness to cater to the unique nature of our small wedding.
We searched a long time for a wedding photographer. I was being very picky about the style and quality. I met Steve at a bridal show in Columbus. He seemed like a cool dude and his...
photos had the aesthetic I was going for. He was easy to work with and very accommodating. When it came time for the big day I had no worries. He was very easy going and patient with my ever crazy siblings. He even added a bit of humor. My family and friends mentioned how nice he was. He and my husband even got to speak a little Russian together.
We got to view our pictures very quickly. They turned out so well! Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Steve did a fantastic job of capturing our nontraditional wedding and family. He was a pleasure to work with and shot some amazing photos despite the cold, unusual circumstances, ...
and relatively short amount of time. He also has a great website. I definitely recommend Shoot 2 Studios and would use him again.
Photography was the most important thing to me when it came to our wedding. We were planning our wedding from out town which meant we had to rely on online portfolios and little t...
o no face-to-face communication with our vendors. I must have looked at 50 or so portfolios and talked to several photographers, but none were as talented and down-to-earth as Steve. The decision to pick Steve was easy and he captured our wedding perfectly. He was everywhere and nowhere at the same time -- meaning when we needed him to snatch a photo - he was right there, but other times he blended in so perfectly and captured some really amazing candid photos. I would recommend him to anyone, and I know if I ever moved back to Columbus, there is only one photographer I would use. He does an amazing job for a value that cannot be beat. To top it all off -- we got our photos back in 2 weeks!!! Thanks Steve!
Here’s a little bit of our story. About three years ago…
What can I say besides we were so blessed to have Steve as our photographer! He helped our “one of kind” wedding/elopeme...
nt come to life. My husband and I wanted our wedding to be our own. We are what some would call “eclectic.”
After coming to the conclusion that we were going to have a weddingmoon in New Orleans, we searched for a few weeks and landed on Steve’s gallery. We loved his work! His photography captured life in a beautiful, artistic, and creative way. As we scrolled through his work, we noticed one thing we really admired, no super-generic “posey” pictures. Yes!!! We found what we wanted to capture the beginning of our next chapter.
I called Steve and we talked about our plans for our wedding. He was so easy to talk to and collaborate with. A few weeks later, we talked to Steve on Skype so that we could get to know each other better, for we could not meet face to face because my husband and I live in Kansas. We talked about things we really wanted in our photos and let Steve do what he is so gifted at doing. He has an amazing eye!
On our wedding day, we were a bit late because I left the rings in the hotel and my soon-to-be husband jumped off the streetcar to run back to the hotel to get them. I thought I ruined the whole day. Steve contacted me to see if everything was all right. Luckily, we had two friends (and marriage witnesses) with us. They kept us calm and prevented my from having a panic attack.
Steve walked my friend and I to the café. I got changed and Steve started documenting the day. He captured great moments like my husband climbing trees and being a great role model for the kids at the park. Steve then guided us around the French Quarter, River Market, and Frenchmen Street. What an awesome tour guide! What an awesome day! He let us be ourselves and documented our first day as husband and wife.
We received our pictures very quickly. Our families and friends were so excited to see the photos. “Amazing! Artistic! These are so you!” they exclaimed. Now, when my husband and I look through the photos, we relive the day. What an amazing day!
Of all the countless expenses in a wedding hiring the right photographer is probably the most important. After all... The photos, memories, and some paperwork are all that's left ...
after a year of planning.
For our engagement shoot he had scouted out a few really cool spots close by, was very flexible with our schedule, very easy to work with, and (most importantly) the photos turned out great!
As far as the big day goes he did not disappoint. Looking back at the photos, and our very nice wedding album, it's pretty amazing all the shots he managed to get while being transparent in the crowd the entire time. He also did a great job of rounding up shots of all of our friends and family during the event. He literally has at least one or more GREAT pictures of everyone that was at our wedding.
And as far as the wedding album itself... It is extremely well made and will probably last through 1,000 years of people leafing through it.
Thanks again Shoot 2 Studios!
Steve did such an unbelievable job capturing every aspect of our wedding!! I learned very and I mean VERY early on that a happy wife leads to a happy life!! My wife loved every p...
hoto!! We had a hard time choosing the photos for our album! I highly recommend. You won't regret it.
There are no words for how in LOVE I am with my wedding photos!
If you are looking for a professional photographer who you can trust with the biggest moment of your life, STEVE...
is the guy for you!
There was not a moment he didn't capture. He was everywhere even documenting things that I had no idea were even going on!
I look back at our pictures and can not even believe that day happened! We loved Steve and everything he did for us!
Being a hair designer I wanted a little something more for my wedding photos. This was one thing I was not going to go cheep on. You do have them forever. I wanted something a litt...
le more out of the box but still classy. While visiting the Columbus bridal show I came across his booth. His pictures were stunning!! His attention to detail and creative eye had just what I was looking for in a photographer. Leading up to the big day he was very organized and on top of everything. He is also easy to work with which can be hard to find in an artist. The day of the wedding went smoothly and was a blast! My stomach hurt by the time I got to the ceremony from laughing. Durning the ceremony and reception he was like a ninja, taking tons of photos but not all up in your face about it. When the time came to pick out the picture for the album it was pleasantly difficult. There were so many amazing photos it was hard to just pick some. If your in the market for a photographer Steve is your guy!!
Steve shot our engagement photos down in New Orleans. The photos all came out great. Steve had scouted out some locations beforehand which was helpful. He is very professional, ...
patient, and dedicated to his work.
I also recently attended a wedding that Shoot 2 Studios photographed, and Steve did a fantastic job of making sure he captured everything. Definitely a hard-working, skilled photographer.
We love our wedding photos!
Ladies (and gentlemen),
As one who normally doesn't get excited about weddings, I fall into the "tough-to-impress" category when it comes to all things wedding. I mention this ...
only because Steve's photography of my wedding left me stunned: I've never seen wedding pictures this good! Steve captured all the amazing moments of our wedding, including those casual moments that really illustrated the fun that everyone had, moments which run-of-the-mill photographers could never dream of documenting. Not a single photograph feels staged or unnatural as most wedding photos always seem to be. Months after the event, our wedding photos still remain the talk (and envy) of everyone we know!
I cannot recommend Steve enough. In addition to his professionalism behind the lens, he's a hardworking, reliable, and honest guy. Don't let this one get away!
I chose Shoot2Studios because from looking at the website, it was obvious the photographer knew how to work with lighting. My venue had lots of hanging globe lights and string ligh...
ting so I knew S2S was the right choice! And he did not disappoint. All of the photos turned out great!
