I would give Steven 20 stars because he is simply the best! We booked him to shoot our wedding at South Park Center in DTLA, and it was easily one of the best decisions we've ever made.
As far as photography skills, Steven is a master of his t...rade. His artistic style is light, airy, and sophisticated, which matched really well with our modern/minimalist theme. We loved that he employs a balance of candid and posed shots, and that he has a sharp eye for detail and knows exactly how to position your hair strands for portraits or where you should stand to minimize harsh shadows based on the angle of the sun. Not to mention, Steven is a man of impeccable work ethics who is constantly & quickly learning new ways of improving his photography & editing process - so by the day of your event, he might've improved drastically from the day you booked him!
Not only is Steven a talented photographer, but he is also one of the best guys you'll ever meet. When we had to eventually postpone our wedding from 2020 to 2022, he changed our date without any hesitation and even gifted us a mini engagement shoot. And despite how busy he is, he always finds time to respond quickly and patiently to our countless questions. He is also very accommodating, often going to the extra mile (or 1000 miles) to make sure not only the pictures come out great, but the couple's big day goes as smoothly as possible.
Aside from the obvious quality in his work, we were especially impressed with Steven's incredible turnaround time. He gave us over 200 edited sneak peek shots literally the next day! And when we mentioned that we'd like to send out thank you cards soon, he sent us all the edited guest photos within 2 weeks. Many guests were very surprised how quickly we received the professional pictures.
Of course, we can't wrap up on Steven without acknowledging his lovely partner and assistant, Connie. She is hilarious yet professional, and an absolute joy to be around. The pair of them make a wonderful team that will surely bring a smile to your face! Finally, a huge thank you to Steven and Connie for not only capturing our dream wedding, but also being some of the best vendors to work with!
