There were so many times that Stephen went out of his way to make our night the best it could be. 

This was hands down our best experience we've had with a vendor! My husband and I cannot stop raving about how great Stephen was! Not only are his photos absolutely gorgeous, creative, and fun; but Stephen was so organized and helpful during the entire planning process and actual wedding! At one point he saw my grandma never got her dinner and he went and got someone to bring it to her. If we could've given all our tips to Stephen we would've. We honestly feel like we couldn't pay him enough. Stephen acted as our wedding planner, maître D, and the best photographer ever! We are so lucky he was able to work with us!
