AWARD WINNER (7X)
Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Marilyn and I run a full service photography and videography company serving the whole midwest and destination wedding couples. We are based in Branson, MO near the famous Big Cedar Lodge. We have worked with hundreds of couples over the past decade and seek to be fun, professional, and deliver the absolute best images possible. We are always looking for this little candid moments of your wedding day that can never be repeated or staged.
I, Steve Jones, work with my wife Marilyn on wedding galleries. Marilyn was my second shooter until we started having babies. Now she helps me with editing and making your photos look absolutely perfect. Our online galleries are gorgeous and we have endless options to get you a perfect package that hopefully will not blow your budget if you have one.
As professionals, we totally respect your wedding day and take absolute rigorous care of your photos backing up everything during the capturing of your wedding and in the office making sure nothing gets lost or damaged. Thankfully, we have had only five-star customer reviews and people have only been super happy with our efforts, we are super thankful to work with our couples. Our couples are absolutely the best part of our business.
We can do bookings over the internet or meet on video chat or in person meetings to get to know you before booking. We really love getting to do this business because we know the regret of not having professional wedding photos to look back on and we now get to deliver the most gorgeous, professional images imaginable to couples, which we know is incredibly special to them. Voted "Best in Weddings" every year with the Knot is definitely a honor, but it is really because our clients were willing to come on here and tell their experience with working with us.
Even though Marilyn doesn't shoot weddings with me, I love the second shooters I hire and am so happy I have some of the best photographer friends in the world whom all have mad skills helping me deliver stellar images. I wouldn't want to hire anything but the best for my couples.
Not sure if you have time today or not, but please reach out to me, ask me any questions or call me if you need a wedding photographer. I am always quick to reply and I'd love to work with you on finding a perfect package. We can do super high-end packages for those with Big-papa budgets offering some high-end books, video etc.. or we also can offer more modest packages that still get you gorgeous, amazing online galleries and full download and printing rights etc..
If you made it this far, let me know how you guys met, let me know what a perfect photography or videography company would look like to you and I can tell you if we are a good fit or not a good fit. If we are not a good fit, I totally understand, but I just want to serve all couples the best way I know how and be as up front as possible. Have a blessed day!!!

My background is in architectural design, but my passion for photography turned into a successful career several years ago. I found Marilyn, my bride, on Kauai, HI who shares my passion for photography; We married in 2010 and moved to Southern Missouri in 2011. We have an awesome little boy named Levi and another little boy named Gideon. We both love celebrating with couples and work hard to make your day stress-free, beautiful, and fun!! We are easy going and love what we do!! We also have a little cat named Tozer who is an amazing friend, kinda like a dog. I love cross-fit and coffee.

I was absolutely amazed by SWJones Photo! His photos were beautiful - we did both engagement and wedding photos and are so happy with the results. Steve makes you feel very comfortable, is attentive to your needs and makes sure he has all photos desired to be captured on his list. His communication was excellent. Anyone who has seen my photos, asks who we used and is amazed at the quality and style. We will be using Steve for all future photos. The best!!!!

Steve and Marilyn went above and beyond to make sure they captured our special day perfectly! They were so personable and easy to work with before the wedding and on the day of. They're genuine, funny, patient, diligent, and SUCH a breath of fresh air in all the chaotic details of the wedding. They worked their butts off to capture every moment of the wedding, and we couldn't be more happy with the results. If you're browsing for a wedding photographer/videographer, stop right here and just hire them. You will not regret it. Steve and Marilyn are the real deal.

SWJones Photography was wonderful to work with. Steve and his wife Marilyn were very responsive through the whole process. Marilyn was our photographer for the wedding, she did an absolutely wonderful job. She was very organized and open to hear my ideas and thoughts. It was a pleasure to work with them and I would gladly recommend them to a friend. I could not be happy with the photos we received. Thank you so much!

We are so happy we went with SWJones Photo for our December wedding at Top of the Rock! We picked him out for the style & consistent quality of his photography.
Steve made the planning process easy & his communication was fantastic. He listened to what we wanted to see & focus on in the photos, and he did a great job picking out spectacular locations that included bridges, waterfalls, greenery and rocks, and Table Rock Lake for our couple photos, and got lots of great shots of people having fun during the wedding. We loved all the fun poses we did and cool angles that Steve & Marilyn got in their shots. His wife Marilyn joined as his assistant photographer on our wedding day and I was so happy she did! They make a great team. We stopped for some impromptu photos in the wine cellar at Top of the Rock after the ceremony and we got some very unique, artsy photos out of that, too, which was cool.
We loved having Steve & Marilyn as our photographers, and we would definitely choose them again! Fun to work with, and awesome photos. We look forward to looking at these photos for many years.

Steven Jones did such an amazing job with both the wedding and the engagement pictures! For the engagement pictures, he was able to make it fun and make us feel comfortable, and we absolutely love the final pictures! We'll be able to cherish them forever. During the wedding he did a fantastic job working with the windy day and alongside our guests to get amazing shots. He got everything on our shot list easily and organically. He sent a few already we absolutely love and we cannot wait for the full portfolio of our lovely day. We could not recommend him enough!

We are SO happy with the overall experience. From booking to the final product everything was so smooth and easy! Photographer showed up to the wedding and captured all the wonderful memories so effortlessly and we barely even noticed she was there. She did an amazing job coordinating all the family photos we were wanting! Could not recommend them enough, final gallery was perfection.

Steven did a fantastic job of capturing such a special moment for us! We now have beautiful pictures that perfectly represent our big day. Not only is he talented at taking pictures with great editing but he also helped BTS. He helped make a stressful day much more leisurely as he organized the crowd and assisted the guests with a rather strict schedule due to having limited time at our venue. I would 100% recommend Steven to anyone in the area searching for a quality photographer at a great price!

My husband and I could not have asked for a better photographer and videographer. They were so flexible and easy to work with. They made our wedding day even more perfect. My husband and I are both from MS. We got married in eureka springs, ar. It was very hard selecting the perfect photographer and videographer, but we found the best!!! we booked over a year in advance and they were constantly in contact making sure all details were perfect. We highly recommend SWJones!!

Marilyn shot our wedding on July 21, 2023 and did an amazing job! We planned our wedding from Georgia to get married in Missouri, found SW Jones Photography on The Knot. We were very pleased with their correspondence, attention to detail and process to flow through the pictures without hiccups even when I was stressed. We had our wedding during a family reunion so I requested additional photos to document the reunion and Marilyn made that happen too. I cannot wait to see the final prints

Steve was an absolute dream to work with! Finding a wedding photographer is so stressful and we must of talked to 20 different ones before we found SWJones Photography. Steve was so easy going and was able to wrangle my huge family for photos. Our photos turned out so good and we couldn’t be more happy with our experience with Steve. I would give him 10 stars if I could! Highly recommend!

Steve, Marilyn and their team are very friendly and very accommodating to all our wedding photo needs. We have a rescue dog "Harley" that my bride really wanted included in all the wedding pics. They went out of their way to help us capture a very special day that included Harley as well.

Highly recommend Steve and Marilyn for your photography needs. Past clients had been friends in college, and put me at ease knowing they came highly recommended, and I was not disappointed. Steve was timely with the contract and communication. Marilyn and Steve arrived earlier than scheduled, were ready to start shooting, and captured every aspect of our perfect day. They were knowledgeable about poses and photos, did an amazing job getting family pictures (because honestly getting everyone to stand where they need to be is a huge task), and suggested different ideas I did not think of myself. We decided to to photo and video package, and we absolutely cannot wait to receive and watch the video for years to come. Set up a meeting with Steve and see for yourself why this company would be a good choice. Steve and Marilyn, thank you for being kind, funny, and just enjoyable to be around while capturing our day.

My husband and I are not comfortable in front of the camera and actually avoid paying for photography to avoid "awkward moments." We're so glad we were talked into booking with SWJones to capture our wedding because we didn't feel awkward at all throughout the entire event. Steve was great at making us feel comfortable all day. We were able to enjoy every minute of our day while Steve directed us based on how we wanted our day to be captured. He is very receptive, flexible to change and travel, positive, and helpful. We feel like our picture portray our day in still life as we wanted it to. Cannot thank him enough!

SWJones Photo is absolutely amazing! Steve is very professional and knowledgeable while at the same time laid back and super easy to get along with. He and his wife are basically family friends now because they’ve photographed so many of our weddings (my best friends, my brother in laws, and now mine). Everyone who sees our wedding album comments on how beautiful our photos are. I cannot recommend them enough! Seriously, everyone I encounter who is even remotely looking for a photographer (for any occasion) I tell them about SWJones! We love these people, and their work!

Steve and his team were FANTASTIC - truly knocked it out of the park! If I could give 10 stars I would because they are so wonderful to work with - from planning to the final photos! We got married at Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs and he captured the venue beautifully! Without a doubt, hiring Steve was money BEST spent for our wedding, he helped with so much more than just photography!! He captured all of the special moments, he captured all the genuine big-cheesy, eye-squinty smiles that perfectly represented the happiness and emotions of the day! We will look back on these photos with smiles, all the years to come! Steve also took video of our wedding and reception and created the most beautiful video memory of our day!

There are a lot of great things that I could say about Steve but mostly I am so grateful for all the work that he put into making sure all my photos were perfect! My wedding day was so cold, but that did not stop Steve from having such an positive attitude, remaining upbeat and professional to get us plus our family and friends through standing in the cold weather. And, all his hard work paid off because I am in LOVE every single photo!! I HIGHLY recommend Steve to everyone! You will not be disappointed!

SW Jones captured our wedding day so perfectly. Steve is the kindest soul and a darn good photographer. Our package included so much and the price was very fair. When I started planning our wedding I said from the very beginning that the photos were the most important part to me. SWJones completely blew my expectations and dreams out of the water. If you are having a wedding near the Branson area you will not be disappointed going with Steve. He made sure my husband and I were comfortable so that our photos turned out natural. He captured all the photos on my list and then came up with such cool shots that I didn't even realize I needed. I cannot give enough praise for my experience with SW Jones.

My husband hates taking pictures and said multiple times how how Steve made all the pictures bearable. We will definitely be looking to use him again in the future!

To put it simply, SWJones Photo is wonderful! Steve and Marilyn captured our wedding day from start to finish and were so easy to work with/down to Earth. They were very willing to capture the shots that I wanted, and also used their expertise to get some I hadn't even thought of. Their experience and professionalism shone through during the entire day. My groom and I felt so comfortable with them. Leading up to the wedding, Steve was quick to respond to any of my questions or concerns. He was willing to meet up with us to talk over even the littlest of details. I also felt his prices were very reasonable which was appreciated. I am grateful that I could get everything included in my photography package that I wanted without having to make sacrifices to lessen the price (like I would have had to do with some other photographers). Steve and Marilyn are both so talented and you cannot go wrong with SWJones!!

Not only did he take fabulous pictures, but he was so great to work with. His friendly personality, and efforts to learn everyone’s name and be as connected as possible throughout the day was appreciated. He also was willing to share his knowledge and experience and give great advice on how best to accomplish some of the challenges of the day.
I told my daughter, The Bride, that I felt like she had done a great job of choosing the best photographer for her day. Her Groom chimed in and said, “ I hate taking pictures and somehow she found the one guy who made it ok”.

AMAZING. amazing amazing amazing and perfect. Steve and Marilyn worked with us to accommodate our specific budget. They had a great planning tool they sent us ahead of time so that they knew what was important for us to capture and remember from our wedding day. The photos were OUTSTANDING and we received 25 photos the day right after our wedding which was awesome. They have a very calming presence as well. My husband and I are kind of awkward especially being lovey-dovey in front of a camera but they made us feel relaxed and captured us authentically. Highly highly recommend working with these folks!! Thanks again, Steve and Marilyn!

Steve and his team did a fantastic job with our wedding. I spent hours looking for the quality of pictures we wanted for our wedding and from the first time I saw their pictures to when we booked SWJones Photo to going through COVID to the wedding day and beyond I was very impressed with how Steve handled everything. My family, my wife’s family, the guests at the wedding all had good things to say about how professional and laid back they were. Really very professional and easy to work with and I couldn’t have been happier with the professionalism and final product! I recommend him and his team and I have no doubt you will be as pleased as my wife and I are.

Steven and Marilyn Jones are a total wedding photography powerhouse couple! When my husband and I found them we were so excited to meet with them. Not only are they professional but they are genuine, they made us feel so comfortable through our engagement session and made it easy on us. They love to travel so I was excited to book them for our wedding that was about 3 hours away. Steven and Marilyn were so incredibly flexible, since we were on a budget they worked with us on the package so we got the most out of it! When they say they will be there from start to finish on your wedding day they truly mean it! Our wedding pictures are something we will treasure forever and we are beyond blessed that they delivered amazing pictures!

One thing we were super pleased with was how many of our close friends and family members they captured pictures of. They were intentional at finding out who we would want pictures of and did a great job documenting not just us but the people we care about that supported us on our special day!
It is clear that they are professionals at what they do by how prepared and thorough they were at everything they did!

Their organization and professionalism is amazing. They are also just really relational and fun to work with! They thoroughly covered our wedding from beginning (when we were starting to get ready) to the end (the sendoff)! Finally, their pictures are beautiful! Amazing action shots and stills. They blew our expectations out of the water with how well they captured our wedding. They captured the beauty of the day very well!

We were so, so blessed to have Steve and Marilyn capture our special day! Their intentionality in being prepared before the big day and knowing exactly what pictures we wanted and who we wanted them with put my mind at ease so I didn't have to worry about it the day of the wedding. They had it covered and didn't disappoint! We had 9 groomsmen and 9 bride-maids and Steve knew all of them by name! They were flexible and I couldn't be more pleased with the pictures I have to remember this amazing day! I would use SWJones Photography in a heartbeat!

Steven and his wife Marilyn did an amazing job with our wedding photos. I was the groom. They met with us months prior to the wedding date and walked us through everything so there were no surprises or things to stress about the day of our wedding. They were great at making everything go smooth. We even used the schedule they made us for the photography timeline to help us during the wedding planning. They both were very professional and communicated everything very clearly for us. Working as a team they got multiple angles of shots that really put our pictures on another level. They captured the joy and happiness of the day and really did a phenomenal job capturing the emotion on our faces. The pictures should go on the cover of a wedding magazine. My wife and I are very pleased with SW Jones Photography. They exceeded all our expectations! Thank you Steve and Marilyn!

Steve and Marilyn were the most professional photographers we could have ever asked for! We so appreciated how they sent us a detailed questionnaire (which ended up playing a very important role in planning our wedding!) about which poses we wanted, and how they could make our day memorable. All of our wedding party loved them! We kept hearing comments like: ‘You know your photographers, they are so chill!’ Steve and Marilyn made taking pictures a lot of fun! They were so calm and efficient, our wedding was low stress, and my husband and I were able to enjoy one another so much more because of our photographers! We highly recommended them to anyone in need of a photographer. If you’ve found SWJones Photo, look no further, you’ve found what you need, and more!!!

Steve and his wife Marilyn were very professional, personable, and exceptionally thorough. He and his wife made the photo sessions flow in a timely manner and put everyone at ease. They amazed us with their efficiency. They make a great team and were enjoyable to work with.
The photography was truly amazing and they captured just the right moments of the special day. They were prompt in getting the final photos to us and even sent us sneak peek photos the evening of the wedding!! Truly amazing!! We could not be happier!!

We were blessed to meet Steve and Marilyn at a Bridal Expo. We booked our wedding package as well as a photo booth. First: great communication. There’s a pretty detailed questionnaire, Steve and Marilyn do a great job of keeping in touch during the whole process. Day of: Steve and Marilyn arrived on time, were patient with us (not a great morning person paired with little sleep). It took no time for them to get all of us feeling like we were just hanging out with two great friends. They kept us on schedule even when we incorporated an unexpected addition. It was super cold and my niece was grumpy, Steve went above and beyond to get her to smile for the pictures. Our priest, friends, and family really loved them and loved how fun and friendly they were. Steve convinced us to brave the cold and wet for some amazing photos — we still can’t believe we got a sneak peak of our photos that same night and can’t wait to see the rest. The photo booth was a big hit and we are both so glad we added that to our package, our guests loved it! The guy who ran it was super cool and awesome (the kids kept him busy). All in all— Steve and Marilyn by far exceeded all expectations. We had a wonderful fun-filled day and Marilyn and Steve contributed to that. — thank you so much guys for capturing our perfect day — Steve we will most definitely be in touch for all our future family photos

Our wedding photographers were top notch! Steve & Marilyn Jones were professional, attentive & concerned with capturing our "desired moments". They made a punctual & professional appearance, had great communication prior to our wedding. They worked as a dynamic duo, truly exceeding our expectations in capturing priceless moments. They were efficient with the photo timeline from the detail shots, to bridal party, romantics & family portraits. The quality of the photos & creative visual eye produced photos we'll cherish for a lifetime!

Couldn't have asked for anything more!!
Steve and Marilyn went above and beyond to ensure all of our wedding/engagement photography wishes were fulfilled.
Our wedding was far from conventional. The dog was the ring bearer, the bridal party danced into the ceremony, our flower girl ran down the aisle in a F-150 walker, and SW Jones managed to capture it all.
We had a ton of incredibly specific requests and massive amounts of family photos and groupings that they were willing to work through with us.
The key to all of this was there communication and feedback. They gave us questionnaires to complete and send back to them. They reviewed the questionnaires with us, to ensure we were all on the same page. And they called the week prior to the wedding to go over the schedule and last minute alterations.
Professionals thru and thru , I mean they wear Secret Service style earpieces to communicate during the event! What more could you ask for?
The photos came out beautiful and were sent to us within 3 weeks. Their experience shows through their posing guidance and background selection. Their equipment is top tier, and more importantly they know how to use it. If you're looking for a photographer, you can stop here because you've found them.

The list goes on and on why this photography couple gets a five star! I would give a six if possible.
From the very beginning there is great communication. They listen to everything you want (even if they are goofy and out there) and make sure they are equipped to handle the tasks. They beyond are professional and respectful of the significance of your big day.
We wanted to capture the joy and laughter of everyone who attended. They captured all of our decorations, multiple candid photos, our families, and every special moment that happened that day. I didn’t worry once about there being “missed” photos. When we got out photos and in a very timely manner, as I looked through them I felt like I was reliving the day. They captured EVERYTHING! The photos were so beautiful also. I have seen other photographers way over edit photos - making them look edited. But these were just so gorgeous... you felt like you could just right into the photos. I highly recommend this couple as wedding photographers!
