I have a modern, nontraditional approach to wedding photography. Your wedding day is like a story, filled with powerful, vibrant memories. I believe that your photography should reflect that. My journalistic style captures the laughs, tears, and emotions from the day, preserving them for you to treasure for years and years.

We have nothing but incredible things to say about our experience working with Steve. From our first conversation with him, it was clear how passionate and talented he is. My now husband and I are far from comfortable in front of the camera, but Steve made the whole process feel natural and fun. On our wedding day, he calmly kept things incredibly organized, directing and keeping things moving. When we got our pictures, we were amazed by how much it felt like we were right back in the day - certainly cause for some happy tears. The pure joy and emotion you can truly feel when looking at the photos, and all without looking posed or inauthentic. We would without question recommend Steve to anyone in need of a rockstar wedding photographer!

Perfect Photographer for a Destination Wedding
Steve is the best! He travelled from Chicago to South Carolina for our destination wedding in May 2022 (after rescheduling with us after our original date in July 2020), and I can't imagine having a better photographer. We knew from way back when we did our pre-COVID engagement shoot that he would put us at ease and get some really fun shots, and I'm sure the wedding photos will be gorgeous too. He and his assistant were such a pleasure to work with, I can't recommend them enough.

Incredible!
Steve Koo is one of the most amazing photographers. His photos are not only stunning, but he has a unique talent of capturing the emotions of everyone in the photos he takes. On top of that, Steve is a wonderful person. He genuinely wanted to get to know us so that he could tailor our wedding photos just for us. From our first consultation to the day of the wedding, he made the process comfortable and seamless. He makes it a point up front that he is the type of photographer that blends into the background, rather than trying to set up the moments he captures. And he wasn’t wrong! We heard from many of our guests that he was so stealthy throughout the whole night. The end results are unbelievably candid photos that truly capture the events of the day brilliantly. His artistry is just outstanding and we would recommend him to anyone with the greatest enthusiasm.

Thank you, Steve!
Steve photographed both my Sister and her husband's micro-wedding in 2020 (when they had to postpone their actual wedding), as well as their recent vow-renewal and celebration in 2021.
As a wedding planner, I referred my Sister and brother-in-law to Steve and I'm so glad I did. He is such a talented photographer and his calming, yet fun, and professional nature is the perfect personality to have on wedding day.
He made everyone feel so comfortable and managed the schedule so well. I simply cannot wait to see the magic that he produced from last weekend's celebration! You will be in beyond wonderful hands with Steve behind his camera on your wedding day!
Thank you, Steve!!

Highly recommended
Steve was exactly the kind of photographer we were looking for! We wanted someone who is good at turning unscripted moments into beautiful memories, and someone who could capture the intimate yet stunning, traditional yet unconventional nature of our small pandemic ceremony at our church.
I love the way Steve uses movement, natural lighting and colors to bring life to each photo—when viewing the entire album, it feels like you’re reading a unique story book. Even moments that are usually frowned upon (such as my husband’s dad having his phone out to record the entire ceremony) ended up being a hilarious endearing part of the photo album. :)
Steve was also very helpful and accommodating throughout the process. He handled multiple group portraits so smoothly, and found amazing hidden photo spots at our venue, although it was his first time being there!
While listening to what we wanted, he also leaned in with his professional experience, giving us plenty of guidance and suggestions to make the day much easier.

Candid & Professional Photographer - A Must Hire!
I can't say enough great things about Steve Koo Photography! My wife and I were lucky enough to land Steve as our photographer, and we couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome of both our engagement and wedding photos. Steve does an incredible job of capturing the moment in the most candid way possible. Outside of a few formal shots, I loved that nothing felt too staged. In addition, Steve was able to capture our personalities with his approach. While posing for a ton of photos can be awkward at times, he made us feel comfortable, and kept the mood light and fun. Professionally, he is incredibly buttoned up! He is punctual, an effective communicator (this is critical!), incredibly thorough, and quite frankly, a delightful person to work with. I can't wait to recommend him to EVERYONE I know!

Nice, Genuine, and Incredibly Talented = Best Wedding Photographer!
Steve Koo Photography is the best!! I couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer and overall photography experience! Not only is Steve one of the nicest and most genuine people ever, his photography is absolutely stunning. I found Steve through a friend who used him for her wedding - I was obsessed with her photos. From the moment I had my first call with Steve I knew I wanted to work with him. Steve was super accommodating to travel to a destination of our choice for our engagement shoot. We got to know him a little bit and learn to feel comfortable being photographed. Our engagement photos are some of my favorite from the whole package. On my wedding day he was such a welcome addition to the bridal suite and after that, I mean this in the best way possible, I didn't even really notice that he was there, yet he somehow captured every moment perfectly. When all is said and done, you have your own memories and your photos...I am grateful to have such beautiful photos that I look at regularly to remind me of the best day of my life. I would highly recommend Steve Koo Photography!!

Incredible!
Steve is the best! We hired him and an assistant of his for our wedding a couple of weeks ago and he was so fun and professional and made sure we got all of the photos we wanted. The entire process was seamless and simple from booking all the way up to the actual day of. They spent the entire day and evening with us. He even sent us a sneak peak video slideshow of some images and it was such a tease because they were so awesome we cannot wait to see the entire album. Our experience was so wonderful and Steve and his assistant photographer were such a pleasure to be with all day! I cannot say enough great things-- hire Steve, you will NOT be disappointed!
