The best decision I made in the entire wedding planning process was booking Studio41. I am beyond speechless with the photos I received from both our engagement session and wedding day and will cherish them forever. Steve and Waddie’s attention to detail and creativity in each shot made our photos absolutely stunning. Steve’s skill with the camera speaks for itself, but what you don’t see is that he makes you feel comfortable, special, and is so much fun to work with!
We received sneak peaks the next day and had the entire photo album sent to us in less than a week. The final gallery exceeded our expectations, and we’ve received countless compliments from family and friends on the quality of the photos and professionalism of the photographers.
I would highly recommend Studio41 to everyone I know!

Steve is a miracle and a God sent! Him and his team made our wedding experience like no other. We had the best time with them all day and our engagement photo shoot was priceless and so much fun. You did not feel like you had to take photos, he made them so enjoyable. The photos are one of a kind and he makes you look like you are an art piece to be hung in a museum with how good he makes you pose and knowing all the right angles. I highly recommend!!! He truly became a part of our family during this process and he is truly the best

Steve understands the assignment! I booked Steve practically the moment I got engaged. He was the photographer for my brother's wedding in 2016, and to this day I am still obsessed with their wedding photos and knew that I wanted Steve to work with me when my wedding time came.
From the beginning, Steve brings nothing but professionalism and great communication skills to the table. He takes the time to understand your image and your style and works to meet your needs. Our engagement photoshoot was so much fun, he made us feel relaxed, it made us so excited for our wedding. Now for the big day, Steve brought the heat! From the second he walked in the door it was game time. He has such an artistic eye and will work endlessly to get you the perfect shot. For 12 straight hours, him and his crew worked like mad men to never miss capturing a special moment or a fantastic image. He helped keep the day organized with time.
Steve returned ALL of our wedding photos in record time. No other photographer can match his work ethic. I just got home from our reception and I was already getting beautifully edited teaser photos that night. He means business and has the greatest passion for what he does.
Just do it, book Studio 41 photography. Trust me, you will NOT be disappointed! Thank you Steve!

If you're looking for a photographer / videographer team - look no farther. Steve and his team are the people to choose to help make your most important day, the most beautiful one. We found Steve through our friends, as he did their wedding. We were immediately impressed with his energy and talent for photography and booked him for our wedding. When you reach out to him, he answers immediately - whereas other photographers take days / weeks to respond. Steve is very open and transparent when it comes to what he provides and what you want. There is no blurred lines and you 1000% get what you pay for - and he was worth every cent.
At our engagement pictures, I knew we made the right choice. He made us laugh and ultimately, made us feel super comfortable (which is so important when you're getting pictures taken of yourself).
Leading up to our wedding day, he checked on us frequently and had a great sit down meeting to confirm all the details. He was so organized and on top of things, I knew we had nothing to worry about - that he was going to take care of everything.
From the start of the wedding - Steve and his team were beyond amazing. He brought 4 other photographers with him, along with a team of videographers and they were with us for 12+ hours. It is very rare you find a team that is willing to stay with you, on your wedding day, for the entire time - but Steve and his team did, no questions asked. He made us laugh, gave us high energy, and captured every single precious and important moment of our day.
1 week after our wedding day, Steve sent us all of our wedding photos ready to go (yes 1 week) and there were over 10,000 pictures. I was beyond blown away and in tears.
I look back at our wedding day and can't thank Steve and his team enough. They made our day absolutely perfect and captured it in every possible way - creating memories for us forever!

Hands down the best and most professional group of photographers and videographers in the industry! Not only did we absolutely love the pictures but the team was awesome. Whether it was the itinerary, the details, the last minute adds, etc. anything we needed Steve and his team were able to make it happen. Steve and studio 41, we thank you for making our day special and let’s just say for any future function, we know who trust with any photography/videography needs!

I don’t even know where to begin. If you found the page for Studio 41, consider your search for a photographer over. Hiring Steve for our wedding was easily the best decision we made. From the beginning, his promptness, responsiveness, and attention to detail were apparent. Our first time meeting Steve was for the engagement shoot and he made us feel like old friends. We felt an instant sense of familiarity and comfort with him. He was personable and humorous during our photoshoot session while still managing to tell us exactly what to do and how to pose to get incredible photos. He notices everything- if your necklace is not adjusted properly, he’ll tell you to adjust it. Everyone was complimenting our engagement photos! On the wedding day, Steve and his team did exceptional work and their experience was clear as day. For starters, Steve put together our day-of itinerary almost exclusively. And when the day came, he and his team performed to a very high standard. We got our photos back in less than two weeks and they are magnificent. We are so impressed and excited to post our photos and hang them up around the house. We will be using and recommending Studio 41 for all future photography needs. Huge thank you to Steve and Wadie! You guys deserve all the recognition you get - love you so much! You’re truly the best.

His attention to detail is unmatched!! The pictures for our wedding turned out magazine worthy!! We are so excited to have these pictures to look back on forever. He works so efficiently! We got our photos back within a week!! We honestly can’t say enough good things about this team! We love them all and definitely recommend!!

Steve was absolutely incredible! Our engagement and wedding photos came out amazing, with little to no work from our side. He is so super detailed with every movement, every piece of hair, and every detail in all of the pictures. He brought props that made the shoots exciting, comments that made us genuinely laugh, and was a pleasure to work with all around. We had so many compliments from everybody in our bridal party that he did great work and had good ideas throughout the entirety of the day. During the planning process, he made everything super easy. Our entire timeline for the day was built solely by Steve, and we had every other vendor work around it because his ideas were perfect. When it came to the photos, he knew all about every good photos spot in the metro Detroit area, and made it so easy to book shoots. We really didn’t have to do anything other than show up, and we still had such great photos of our wedding day. We could not recommend him more!!!

Steve and his team are one of a kind. He has photographed multiple of our friends weddings and we knew immediately we wanted him for our special day. Steve is easy going, creative, and so much fun to work with! He also is very quick to respond and punctual. Our pictures for our engagement, henna party, and wedding are beyond incredible. He truly captured all the love in the room and we are so blessed to have these memories forever, thanks to him. We HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who asks. Steve truly treated us like family, and after him being such an important part of all our special occasions, we see him as family as well. We look forward to our next big moments in life and having him there to capture it all!

I don't even know where to start. We saw Steve do my cousin's wedding and the pictures he did for them and we instantly fell in love. From the second we had our engagement shoot with Steve it was incredible. The way he would guide us and make us laugh to get the best pictures was awesome. Steve and his team are simply the best in the business. The way they can capture anything and turn any scenery into an epic picture is insane. They make you feel like the star of the show. Steve is an unbelievable person inside and out. We made the best decision in the world by hiring Steve. You deserve every single thing in the world for how incredible you are. Emily and I could not have had anyone better and we love you and feel like you're a part of our family. We will always be booking Steve for any future photo shoots we need! We cannot thank you enough.

Wow, where do I even start!?! Steve was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. From the moment I called to talk to him about being our photographer to the end of our wedding day Steve was one of the most friendly and professional people I have ever worked with. My husband and I were looking for a photographer for a while and talked to a few of them. We mainly wanted one who was comfortable with a same sex couple because some people are not, which I can respect. Steve is fully supportive and treated us like any other couple which was all we could ask for!
Once we had our engagement photo session where we got to meet Steve and get to know each other I knew I made the right choice going with him. He is EXCELLENT at his job and takes it very seriously. He is particular and meticulous when it comes to getting the photos just right and BOY do the results show just that. Once we got the photos back we were blown away by the quality and creativity of the photos, things I would not even think of doing! He made sure we were always smiling and keeping busy and even made sure nothing was in our pockets! Anything that could take away from the photos he thought of and made sure we were smiling the whole time. He even offered a few little alcoholic shooters to help loosen us up and have more fun with the photos! This man thought of everything!
When it came to wedding day both Steve and his partner Waddie ( I hope I spelled his name right!) were both punctual and on time to everything. They helped guide us through the day and again, all the photos were unique and excellent quality. He made use of the environment perfectly in all situations! His turnaround time to get the photos back to us was extremely fast as well!
During the Ceremony and Reception they were extremely attentive and made sure to take as many excellent photos as possible. They always jumped in when they saw people gathering for their own photos to make sure he got one as well. They both made sure to keep us as the center of attention while also giving plenty of love to all of our guests with photos as well, he did not miss a single opportunity! They both got every single combination possible of us and our families! He communicated with me the whole evening to make sure we were happy and to coordinate the next set of photos. He even kept an eye out for a late family member showing up so we could get them in for family photos. He knew they arrived before I even did! The lighting they had was excellent and made for the highest quality photos when we got them back, the detail is amazing!
The package he offers is excellent and well worth the price, you get so much for the price, I would do it again in a heartbeat! If you are looking for a photographer do not hesitate to contact Steve at Studio 41 Photography! He has been rated top of the knot since 2012 for a reason after all.! He and Waddie will make sure your photos are something to remember and cherish for the rest of your life.
I can not say enough good things about Steve and his team, he is a great person to get to know and will have your back throughout your entire wedding event. So what are you waiting for!?!?! Pick up the phone and call Steve to book your wedding now, you will not regret it!
Thank you Steve and Waddie, you made sure our wedding was perfect and that we have all these wonderful photos to remember it by. We can not thank you enough.
Love Tyler and Dominic Allor

Steve is absolutely amazing!! When my husband and I were looking at photographers, as soon as we talked to Steve we knew he was the perfect person to work with on our big day. He was in constant contact with us when planning our engagement photos and making a timeline for our wedding. He goes above and beyond acting like your personal planner all day. He keeps you on time, diffuse any stressful situations, and makes you laugh constantly all while taking the most breathtaking photos! His energy and love of photography is unmatched. He truly has a gift and an ability to make pure magic! His attention to detail creates perfection! He will make your day feel so special! I couldn’t imagine our wedding without him. I have received endless comments about how amazing my photos are and I feel truly blessed to have worked with Studio 41! He also was amazing with our other vendors as they relied on his expertise and advice as well. Steve and Waddie made my day so fantastic and I have the photos to cherish forever! I can’t wait to work with Studio 41 on future projects as well!!

Steve is absolutely incredible. If you are looking for a photographer whose pictures are out of this world, someone with a great personality, makes your day special, and has the greatest sense of humor, then Steve is the one! His second photographer Waddie is also just as great! We had so much fun with them. All of our guests, including our family members were boasting about how great they were and how personable they are! I was super happy with our engagement shoot, and could not wait for our wedding photos. First off, Steve sent my entire album a week after our wedding!! I thought he was sending a sneak peak and it was our entire album .. truly incredible !! To note, this was over 4,000 pictures! I have no idea how to pick some of my favorites for the photo album because I truly love all of them! I highly highly recommend Studio 41 Photography to all that are looking for great photography including engagement sessions and weddings! Steve’s attention to detail is very apparent in his work. Always remember that your wedding photos are the most important piece to have memories of your special day. We are so thankful to have booked with Studio 41 and will continue to book any of our future photo shoots with Steve! Steve has truly become a part of our family and we are forever thankful!

Finding the right words to express our gratitude is a challenge because your role in our lives has been truly exceptional. From that evening in April 2021 when you answered the call to capturing our precious moments, you’ve not only been a photographer but also family.
Your professionalism, dedication, and passion for your craft shine through in every shot. You’re undoubtedly one of the hardest-working individuals we’ve ever met.

Working with him was such a wonderful experience!
He is so kind, professional and detail oriented.
Steve goes the extra mile for his clients and it shows!
I had him take my engagement pictures and wedding pictures (including wedding day videographer).
He is extremely knowledgeable at his job and knows metro Detroit inside and out!
Steve doesn’t miss an angle and is so creative when shooting.
He was so easy to work with, he would always answer my emails or texts so quickly which was very helpful.
I would absolutely recommend working with him!

My husband and I recently had our wedding and had Steve as our photographer. We met Steve through our friends wedding and we loved their photos. We can confidently say he was our best vendor in our wedding.
From the first time we reached out to Steve to the last second of the process he was nothing but professional. He is incredibly kind and goes above and beyond to work with you, your vision and your schedule. His customer service is top notch. The turn around on images is insane, we got all our wedding pics within 1 week. He was so so kind with our families and guests and they loved him too.
Now the photos. AMAZING. He is a brilliant artist and you can see his passion for his craft. He is an expert in lighting and can see potential for beautiful images anywhere. Our engagement pictures are so special and beautiful and our wedding pictures are the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. We love every single picture and our families are blown away.
We 100% recommend Steve and his group without reservation. He was the best part of our wedding planning process and we are already thinking of future events and such to use Steve!! Thank you!

I first met Steve as a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding, he did such a great job of keeping us on task while being professional and having a great sense of humor along the way. I could tell his creative eye was going to result in unique and beautiful photos. With all of that being said I knew I need Steve and his team for my wedding. I hired Steve and from day one he was professional, and easy to get in contact with, always responded in a timely manner. Steve and his team EXCEEDED EVERY EXPECTATION!! He blew us away with his photos. It rained most of our outdoor photos and you would never know it. I highly recommend Steve and trusting him with your day you won’t be sorry! He was also one of the only photographers we looked into who included canvas and an album! And he had all of our digital photos back to us in TWO WEEKS!! So many of our friends and family have also complimented us on how awesome he was and we couldn’t agree more.

Your wedding Photographer is arguable the most important vendor you will choose. After your big day, the best thing you have to look back on are your photos. I truly don't believe the magic of our day would've been captured as beautifully if it wasn't for Steve and his team.
I have received SO many compliments about how my photos belong in a bride magazine. Steve is truly passionate about his work and will ensure your day runs smoothly, you enjoy yourself and that your love and personality will shine through your photos. Even my husband didn't mind taking photos, and he normally HATES even taking one. We can't thank Steve enough for taking the time and working with us. We are really BLESSED. Thank you, Steve!!! :)

I don’t normally give 5 star ratings, but Steve has earned every single star. His professionalism, creativity, attention to detail and kind heart are 2nd to none. Steve commands the room to ensure everything goes as perfectly as possible, but he does so in the best way possible. We had Steve for our wedding day, and obviously we were excited and happy, but naturally, there are also nerves and anxiety that come along with the day - Steve single handedly put that at ease. He was more than just a photographer to us that day - whenever we needed a reminder that our day was fun and happy, or if we weren’t sure what to do, Steve was always there, popping in at the perfect time with a joke, or a nice comment, or an instruction to get us back on track. Steve’s photo quality is absolutely mind boggling, he truly thinks outside of the box for every single shot he takes...the photos he took of our wedding rings together were quite possibly the coolest pictures I’ve ever seen in my life. I could not recommend a service provider any more than I recommend Steve…the amount of guests at our wedding that came up and commented to us about how incredible “our photographer was” were too many to count. Choose Steve for your photos and I GUARANTEE, you don’t regret it.

If I could give more than 5 stars here, I would in a heartbeat. Steve was our photographer for our wedding, and he is the most talented photographer I have ever come across. His attention to detail is unlike anything I've ever seen, his creativity is jaw dropping, and he's cognizant of everything going on during the wedding and makes sure to capture those moments you didn't even notice. Added bonus - he has a heart of gold and will do anything to make sure your event runs smoothly. He will be my photographer for years to come. I cannot express in words how amazing Steve is not only in his profession but also as a person. Without a doubt, book with Steve for your upcoming event.

Our wedding was in the morning. Steve arrived the day before to make sure everything would be on time. His team was able to capture every moment beautifully. He had a great eye for creative shots and was able to make even the most camera-shy guests feel at ease. Another thing I would like to mention is Steve also helped us to replan the timeline of the day of the wedding so we had eoungh time for the photo.
When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away! Steve managed to capture the emotions and joy of the day perfectly. The photos were of the highest quality and beautifully edited. It was evident that Steve had put in a lot of time and effort to ensure that each photo was perfect.
Throughout the entire process, Steve was responsive and communicative. He made sure to keep us updated on the progress of the photos and was always available to answer any questions we had. Overall, we had an amazing experience working with Steve and his team and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a talented and professional wedding photographer. Thank you, Steve, for capturing our special day so beautifully!

Where do I even begin Steve!?
It all started with standing up in many weddings, doing hair and makeup for wedding parties that Steve literally blew me away. His presence , his passion and his friendship is what drew me in. I told Steve many many years ago “one day you’re going to be my wedding photographer.” And that decision never changed. Every time we’ve bumped into each other he has a smile ear to ear.
Fast forward to my wedding day..
he was everything I hoped for and more. Let me just say he’s BETTER than any photographer !! He not only captures the best photos, but he’s your biggest fan, your bestest friend, and honestly part of your family. I never once questioned anything or worried at all cause I knew Steve was there to reassure me he had everything and I mean EVERYTHING under control. He really took care of us, made sure I was eating , checked in on me, etc!. My wedding day was PERFECT because of Steve and the photos he shot… you guys I’m not kidding I look like the queen of Michigan!!!
I can’t thank you and your partner enough Steve! I will always refer you till the day you put that camera down. He truly was blessed with the greatest talent -and gift. Every bride deserves to feel the way I felt on my wedding day.
Thank you so much my friend , again for everything. We adore you so much !! ❤️
P.s- if you haven’t booked Steve , what are you waiting for??

Steve is absolutely AMAZING! I do not know where to start. He went above and beyond for my husband and I not only on our wedding day, but throughout the whole wedding process. He always responded immediately with any questions or concerns I had. His communication was the best. He would respond no matter what time of the day it was. He got my engagement and weddings photos to me super fast. He had already texted me some wedding proofs before I went to bed on the night of our wedding!! He always had my best interests and dream wedding photo goals in mind. I wanted to take photos at Cranbrook, but their website did not show any availability for my wedding date. Steve called ME several weeks before my wedding to tell me there was an opening on my date, so I should get on their website and book it ASAP. He really kept checking Cranbrook’s website for me months after I had given up on the idea of going there. I’m so so grateful for that because I got the beautiful fall outdoor pics at Cranbrook that I always wanted. He makes you feel like family and is more than just a photographer vendor. I cannot recommend him enough!!

Look no further, Steve IS the best photographer you can find!
We have never hired a professional photographer before & were clueless about how the photoshoot will be, yet alone how to pose. Then I came upon Studio41's Instagram while looking for a photographer who is familiar the Meadowbrook Brook Hall venue and was blown away by the photos. Having Steve at our reception was the best decision made. Steve is not only the most gifted photographer but a wonderful, funny, down to earth person we've met. He was super responsive, attentive and caring thoughout the process. We and our guests had so much fun interacting with Steve throughout our celebration, and through his detailed-and-entertaining guidance during a photoshoot. The reality of the photos is beyond expectations. Simply put, let Steve's photos do the talking. Superb and absolute best memories captured! Highly highly recommended for any photoshoot!

I don’t even know where to start. From the second Steve walked in, I knew this was going to be an amazing start to my morning. His energy was so unique and he made all my nerves go away instantly. I have always wanted to model so this was a dream of mine to be behind the camera. Additionally, being a graphic designer and have knowledge in the photography space, we clicked immediately and really fed off each others ideas. My wedding was a Peaky Blinders / 20s era vibe and he really captured all the vintage ideas and concepts that I was envisioning. Throughout the whole morning we had so many great laughs and Steve was really my hype man, letting me know how great I was doing. The highlight of my day was going down to the vault at The Treasury and taking INSANE shots with him and his partner. That’s when the vision truly came to life and I couldn’t be more thankful for how unreal these photos came out. The photos truly look like they belong in a movie sequel or the cover of a magazine. I can’t express to you how many phone calls and texts I’ve received from my family members over these pictures. Steve you were an absolute AMAZING photographer and I would model for you ANYTIME. Our special day couldn’t have been captured as well as you did. Thank you catching even the smallest details. Again, I would do this day a million times over because of you. Vito and I absolutely adore you and we have been recommending you to literally EVERYONE. THANK YOU STEVE!!! ❤️

Steve came recommended to me by our floral vendor Bellisario, and let me tell you, there is literally no reason NOT to book him for your wedding photography! Steve shot our engagement shoot in 2021 and our wedding on 9/17/22, and everything was absolutely incredible. His work speaks for itself - you will not find more beautiful photos for your big day! But not only is he an amazing photographer, he's also a wonderful person to work with, and makes sure to manage timelines, locations, people, etc. so you don't have to. When our engagement shoot was expected to be a total rain-out and our location didn't have any other dates available, Steve immediately helped us find a new location and new date and reached out to his contact to book it for us. He's an amazing person and had us laughing every time we worked with him. His direction is easy to follow and makes you feel very comfortable. For the wedding day, he helps put together a very detailed timeline and makes sure everyone sticks to it - which is helpful to know that as the bride, I don't have to keep my eye on the time all day to make sure we make it to the reception on time. He adjusts hair, veils, anything else he sees to make sure everything looks perfect in photos. Even when our venue forgot to set out the cake serving set for us, Steve quickly found someone to bring it to us when it was time to cut the cake so we didn't have to. The second photographer he had with him was fantastic as well, and my husband and his guys had a great time working with him in the morning. Everyone is RAVING about our photos and we literally could not be happier with them. Steve even sent us a handful of photos at 3am the night of our wedding night, and we had the rest of them in-hands within 2 weeks. Our only problem now is that we have thousands of photos to try to pick from! Book Steve IMMEDIATELY!

We booked Steve for our wedding this past weekend (9.24.2022), and just have to say it was the best decision we made! From our engagement photos, to the big day itself- everything was PERFECT! Shoot I haven’t even gotten out wedding photos back and STILL leaving this review lol because of course he has an awesome eye, but he was so much more than a photographer. He made us comfortable, crack up (which is huge), and was on top of EVERYTHING on our wedding day- not just pictures! For our engagement session we had only met with Steve, but on the wedding day we met his partner Waddie and he was equally as amazing. Every detail was thoroughly thought through. From the placement of my foot to the direction I was looking to my necklace being straight He is a huge reason why our wedding day went so smoothly. He isn’t afraid to tell you what needs to be done and we love that. Just an all-around genuine guy. Not to mention his eye for photography is amazing- the obvious reason we chose him! But everything else was an added bonus. We cannot thank you enough Steve and Waddie !

We had an outstanding experience with Studio 41! Through impeccable timing, the utmost professionalism, and meticulous organization, Steve and his team (Waddie) skillfully led us through some of our most fond memories. These included both the engagement shoot at Meadowbrook Mansion and wedding day at Waterview Loft. If we could do our wedding over a thousand times, and we would, we would choose Studio 41 every time. Please consider them for your photography vendor! We are thrilled with the results of our wedding photos and think everyone ought to feel this great about their engagement/wedding experience.

Where to begin! I was 6 weeks out from my wedding when I fired my previous wedding photographer and booked with Studio 41 Photography. That was the best choice I could have made, I'm not even upset that I lost my deposit with my other photographer I would do it all over again. Steve and Waddie are two of the best photographers at what they do. Steve even carried around my lip-gloss in his pocket for whenever I needed to reapply, who does that?! The attention they have for detail shots is amazing, and these two felt like they were apart of our family throughout the day. I hope that every bride and groom feels as happy as we were on our wedding day with our photographers, and if you book with Studio 41 it'll be the best vendor you book for your wedding this I promise you! Thank you Steve, thank you Waddie. Shadi and I loved working with you, thank you for everything!

Where do I begin? Steve, you are absolutely incredible! There are not enough words to express how truly grateful we are for you. I knew from the moment I saw some of your previous work I had to have you as Michael and my wedding photographer. From some of our very first conversations, to our engagement session, to sitting in your office simply chatting about life, if I did one thing right during my wedding planning process, it was selecting you as our photographer.
There is no one like you Steve. I’ve never met someone so kind, caring, compassionate, patient, encouraging, (I could go on and on) toward his clients. You and your team drove Michael and I separately to capture our first look! That’s unheard of! No one does it like you!
Steve arrived early, stayed late, took us to secluded locations I never even knew existed, and captured the most beautiful photos I’ve ever seen! Our jaws keep dropping to the floor at every sneak peak you send us. We truly felt like you were a member of our bridal party, and we hope you felt that too. You were there for every special moment. Whether we were laughing, crying, venting, etc., you were there right by our sides every step of the way. Our family, friends, and even our other vendors cannot get over how incredible our photos have turned out. I can’t believe these are only a few sneak peaks. The angles you shot, the black and white frames, the close ups, I’m blown away. I’ve been in my fair share of weddings, and I’ve never seen a photographer do what you do.
I fully believe you and your team are the best, most professional photographers based in the state of Michigan, and I would tell that to anyone that asks me. Your work is unmatched. As much as it’s a sigh of relieve having your wedding planning process come to an end, I keep telling Michael I’m sad that we won’t be chatting as often as we used to. It’s rare when you feel like your vendors become like friends and family to you, and that’s exactly how you made us feel.
Thank you for everything Steve. We can’t wait to work with you in the future.

There aren’t enough words in the english dictionary to even begin describing what an incredible, outstanding, and unbelievable person not only Steve is, but his entire team is. How do you even train your team to be just as amazing as you are? I met Steve when I hired him for my wedding and I KNEW I had made the best decision I could’ve ever made in my life hiring him when I saw how great he was while I was a bridesmaid for a friends wedding that he was also photographing. Listen… Steve is not only a photographer, he’s like a director, leader, a therapist, a soother, a wedding coordinator and best of all, your FRIEND all in one. I promise you’ll never find that in any other photographer these days. He made things run SO SMOOTHLY. Any incident or issue that took place, I wasn’t even aware of it until after because Steve was already on top of it. Don’t even get me started on the PHOTOS!!! I literally have never seen more STUNNING photos in my entire existence of life. I’m not kidding… STEVE I HOPE I MAKE YOUR HEAD HUGE when you read this! You deserve every ounce of credit, you’re UNREAL and you’re so subtle about how GREAT you even are like I don’t even understand it just comes so naturally to you. I can 100% say that without a doubt, Steve is the best photographer i’ve ever seen/known/met in my life and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with a special moment in my life to take my photos other than Steve and his wonderful team. My husband and I made such great friends out of him and his beautiful family. I just want to thank you for everything you’ve done, Steve & I can’t wait to see what lies ahead in your success. You deserve every. single. bit. of all the success in the world. I want to see you go even further than you already are now in your success. I know you can move mountains with it. Reach for the stars, the galaxies are waiting for you!

From the first time we met for the engagement session I knew I made the right choice, he made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. He kept us on track for our wedding day, showed up early and stayed late, and picked some amazing locations for photos! We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos and I owe it all to Steve! Truly knows what he is doing and his passion for photography shows every minute of the day! Also a huge bonus, our wedding photos came back within a week!! Never seen anyone work faster in my life. I say this all the time but Steve was my best decision I made for my wedding! His work speaks for itself and I am so thankful to have the most incredible photos to look back on for the rest of my life! Will 100% be hiring him for future events, nobody better!!

No amount of words will express how wonderful Steve and his crew were to work with on our wedding day. They took away every stressor and made us laugh so much along the way. We have used Studio 41 for our engagement pictures, our henna event, and our wedding. Steve ALWAYS went above and beyond to make sure we were happy! Whether it was giving us round-the-clock weather forecasts for our outdoor shoot, to making sure family members felt comfortable, and most importantly--to capture our love with his black and white camera. We would recommend this team a million times over. Our wedding photos turned out so beautiful that we cannot even choose top 20. Steve finished all of our photos in 5 days. We are still speechless. Thank you to such an amazing crew, and thank you to Steve. We are so thankful to have gained a new friend along the way. The next morning everyone asked who the photo crew was because they loved them so much! We cannot wait to book you for future events.

Wow, wow and WOW! I don’t believe there are enough words in my vocabulary to describe how amazing Steve and Studio 41 is! He is one of the best photographers I’ve ever worked with and his artistry is simply superb. You can truly see his love and passion for his art through his work. Steve has done my engagement shoot, bridal shower and our wedding and we were blown away every time! Everyone that’s seen our pictures has absolutely loved them and want to work with him now too. Lol! His commitment to making sure we were happy with our photos goes above and beyond anything that I could have expected. This man stood in 4 ft piles of snow on the coldest day of Michigan winter just to get good shots and with a smile! If that doesn’t scream dedication, I don’t know what does! Even people who didn’t attend our event but looked at the photos said they felt like they were there just from looking through them. He captured every special moment and his pictures perfectly reflected the story of that day. Steve is not only now our favorite photographer but he is an honorary family member and we will refer him to any and everyone that we know. Steve, thank you so much for sharing your talents with us and making every single event special! We are so grateful to know you and be able to call you more than a friend, but a brother! You have helped us capture our forever memories with the most beauty and elegance and for that we will forever be thankful! If you want to guarantee beautiful photos, great laughs, comfortability, and amazing customer experience please choose Studio 41 photography. It is truly an experience that you will never forget or regret!

If you are considering Studio 41 Photography for your photography stop right this second and book them immediately! Steve is absolutley phenomenal! The amount of photos we had and the quality of them was simply spectacular. I got married 5 months ago and people are STILL coming up to me saying how phenomenal my photos are. My husband and I felt a little awkward at first with engagement pictures and Steve broke the tension immediately and had us laughing the entire time. He set the timeline for our wedding and kept everything running without a hitch! He also remembered all the personal details and important people in our lives and made sure to capture the intimate candid moments. If I could give 10 stars I would! Everyone deserves their big day to be documented as perfectly as Studio 41 does it! Love love love!

I could write a novel about how amazing Steve is and how incredible our experience was with Studio 41. The first time my husband and I met him was when he took our engagement photos. He has the best personality and made us feel so comfortable during our session. He was patient, kind, and so much fun! We were always laughing and it felt so easy working with him. Our wedding was absolutely perfect because of him. Every photo was beautiful and flawless. He captured such precious moments throughout the whole day. There were about 4,000 photos and I love every single one! He is so passionate about his work and is so great with keeping everything on schedule. Our family and wedding party loved him and told us that he is the best photographer they have ever worked with, and we couldn’t agree more. He is a photographer everyone needs in their life! Steve, you are absolutely wonderful. Your work is beautiful and we have received so many compliments on our photos. I have already recommended Studio41 to several people and will continue to do so. Thank you for everything you have done for us!

Steve and his team were absolutely phenomenal on my wedding day! Every single person I talked to at the wedding said how his demeanor was amazing and how fun he was. Especially with the bridesmaids and groomsmen, we had so much fun all day and it never felt like we were taking wedding photos. I honestly could not recommend this studio enough, even more so that we found them at the last minute before our wedding. Thank you Steve and team for every single beautiful photo that we received today! Also, they had photos and a video ready the night of the wedding as a preview. It was so cool to be able to show people at the wedding the amazing work they did all day.

I cannot say enough good things about Steve, so I'll tell you a story. I found Studio 41 on the knot when planning my September 2020 wedding, and after meeting with a few photographers prior to him, there was no question he was the perfect fit. I recall walking out to my car after our meeting, calling my now husband who was not with me to meet him, and saying "he's the one let's send him the money" lol. Then, the pandemic struck, and our large September wedding was cancelled. At that, I contacted Steve to let him know we had decided on a destination wedding in Jamaica, which he was fully supportive of, without knowing that I was about to ask him if he would be willing to come along and be our photographer in Jamaica. When I say that I could not imagine this man not photographing all big events in our life, I mean it. Fast forward to planning a destination wedding, Steve truly was there whenever I needed info from him or had a question, his ability to respond quickly if not instantly is second to none. We jumped through hoops planning this, and Steve was there with us basically taking care of whatever obstacle I threw his way. Now for our wedding day. Weddings can be stressful, and sometimes you don't feel 100% with yourself. I was uncomfortable having my photo taken all of my life, but I promise you, you will be completely at ease with Steve. The level of comfort both my husband and myself felt with him from the very first meeting through the wedding day was outstanding. He is just a wholesome, wonderful man, which is hard to find nowadays.
Onto his work. His attention to detail and level of creativity are out of this world. We took photos for hours (because hello it's Jamaica gotta soak up those photo-ops) and he made the entire process fun for both me and my husband. Steve is so incredibly talented at what he does, we've received our photos and there is not one that we don't love. In fact, we have over 800 favorited currently for an album, and this is after six "cut downs." Our wedding was nothing short of a fairytale, and Steve was able to capture that fairytale beyond our expectations and blew not only us, but our family and friends away.
So please, do yourself a favor and invest in Steve and your wedding. If you are looking for the absolute BEST wedding photographer in Michigan, and I'd even go as far to say one of if not the best in the country, book with Studio 41. You will NOT be disappointed in his work or him as a person.
Thank you Steve from the bottom of our hearts for not only being the most amazing photographer, but also for being a confidence booster, personal dress fluffer, and such a joy to work with from start to finish, through all of the bumps in the road. We are so happy to have had you not only as the photographer for our important day, but also to have gained you and your family as friends for life.
