Steve Rouch Photography

Steve Rouch Photography was wonderful to work with. The whole staff is friendly and very helpful. We had Steve himself photograph our wedding reception. Steve and his assistant were great and patient with all the people we wanted photographed. He really captured our reception with all the romance and fun we had that night. The staff at the office did a wonderful job with our wedding album. They were great with keeping in touch with us and available to answer any questions. Steve Rouch Photography comes highly recommended from my husband and I.

We couldn't have been more pleased with Steve and his staff. With his light-hearted demeaner he really made the whole experience very effortless and relaxing. His attention to detail really made for some great shots that we will cherish for years to come. We would recommend to anyone looking for a quality photographer.

My husband and I were married last spring and we chose Steve Rouch Photography to be our wedding photographer. We had done a lot of comparison shopping before we made our decision and we chose Steve Rouch Photography because the staff was so welcoming and made us feel at ease, they also had a lot to offer for the price they were charging. When it came to planning the wedding they answered all the questions we had and were very open to suggestions. On our wedding day Steve was the photographer and he did an AMAZING job. We got to see our pictures online the week after our wedding when we were on our honeymoon. When we got back we were able to order our album. Unlike most of our recently married friends who had to wait at least 6 months for there wedding album, we had ours finished and in our hands 3 weeks after our wedding. Not only were we impressed but our family and friends were as well and they are hard to please. My husband and I definitely recommend Steve Rouch Photography to anyone searching for someone to capture the special moments of their wedding day.

We were recommended to Steve Rouch Photography by a friend of mine who used them for their wedding. We checked out other photographers before deciding to go with Steve and it was the best choice we could have made! From the first meeting to the engagement session then the wedding and afterwards we have felt at home and very happy with the quality of images/product we received. I highly recommend Steve/ Steve Rouch Photography, you will not be disappointed.

Steve Rouch Photography made our wedding day unforgettable. Our photographer was great! He was so easy to work with made taking pictures fun for the kids and adults! I am very pleased with all the pictures taken and the special care the photographer put into taking them. Thank you so much to Steve Rouch Photography for all of your hard work and the beautiful pictures!!

Amazing and awesome to work with for everything! We have found our official family photographer for the rest of our lives! For the wedding, Steve was great with being able to work with us and set up a payment plan that was realistic and worked within our budget!

I chose Steve after vewing many photographers. Steve's cost are right up front and you know what your paying for, and what you will get. I waited until very last minutes to find a photographer, but am glade I waited so long. Steve's ability to keep the kids happy was amazing, my daughter still talks about it. I LOVE that they give you many FREE things. I went to see about 10 photographers total, and Steve was the only one who gives you a free engagement session. All others, charged over 500.00 just to go in and a couple photos taken. Some of the pictures with the glasses were bad, but honestly, I think we all loved every one. I love some of the "last minute" shots steve thought of. My all time favorite is the one he took of me and my husband standing with the picture window behind us and we look like were shadowed out. Steve also did everything I asked, his "your every wish is my command" was awesome! I know he stayed WAY longer then what I paid for, but honestly, because of that and the awesome photos, he has a customer for life.. Not just weddings, senior pictures for my daughter, family photos, reunions, pets, anything I need a photographer for, I will be calling Steve.

Steve and Joel were fantastic to us. Steve helped us to design a custom wedding photo package where we could pick the types of photos and the services we wanted and complete it within our budget. Joel took the photos and did a fantastic job. He was great in dealing with a large wedding party, large families, and the kids. Our prints were available on time as promised, all 1,000 of them! We will be using Steve Rouch Photography in the future as our family grows! Thank-you!

Steve Rouch has been my family photographer since 1983, the year my wife and I got married. I take a lot of pictures of my family but Steve Rouch shoots the photos I cherish the most. The portraits of my wife and I are valuable reminders of how blessed we are. Steve has captured the excitement of our wedding, and the life and characters of our children in their portraits. Steve Rouch is professional and timely on the delivery of his services. I am fortunate to have the services of Steve Rouch Photography.

I went to Steve Rouch Photography because of the exceptional work he does. Steve and his staff surpassed my wildest expectations! They were with us every step of the way making sure they understood what we wanted and suggesting ideas that I had never thought of! Your wedding day is the most important and special day of your life, and Steve and Joel captured this moment in such a beautiful, amazing way. When the proofs were ready, (all 600 of them) I cried as they were so beautiful and captured our day so perfectly!The quality, professionalism, price and love for what this team does is what made us select Steve and his team. The way they make you apart of their family is what will make them apart of your family for years!We will be returning customers for years to come!

We went to Steve for our wedding because he did our family photo's as we were growing up. He went on to do all 3 of my sisters weddings. He has an amazing personality that always made each time he photographed us make everyone relax and feel fantastic. He is organized and that helped me on my wedding day just let things happen. His eye is amazing. I have never seen such creative work. I especially love his lighting. His staff is helpful and really made the plan of your day work. I would recommend Steve to anyone!

I went to Steve Rouch Photography because of the exceptional work he does and the fact that he was voted photographer of the year. I don't regret working with him at all, he surpassed my expectations on every level. I was handled with great respect and was treated very well by himself and his staff. Our families could not stop ranting and raving about how exceptional Steve was at our wedding and did not act superior to us like other photographers our families have worked with. Mr. Rouch showed up early, calmed everyone on our hectic day, made sure we got every shot we asked for, and even did more shots than we asked for. He even stayed longer than he was required to, he definitely proved to us he is an exceptional professional and is completely passionate about his craft. I never realized how his lighting can really make the difference in wedding pictures that last a lifetime. Our pictures took a little while but thats because we got a large package, and i've heard horror stories from friends about how their photographers didn't ever give them their photos! Absolutely terrifying, which working with Steve you can feel rest assured everything will go incredibly great! I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Steve's professionalism and expertise made the day fun for us. He got to know us well and that showed in the final work. We were overwhelmed by the personal involvement with us. We are thrilled with his gorgeous work and wonderful experience.

My husband and I chose Steve Rouch as our wedding photographer initially because of the quality of his photography. Steve was very much the professional during our wedding - pre-ceremony, ceremony, reception. We had specific requests, i.e. photos we knew we wanted and those we didn't. Steve listened carefully and accommodated all our requests. He also made good suggestions and fully respected our wishes. We were pleased with the quality and value of our experience.

They were very easy to get work with. The only thing is that you sometimes need to call back in order to get ahold of them. Their pictures were out of this world though, they were worth every penny!

We had Joel as our photographer. He was awesome. Very personable, kind and knew how to work with everyone in our wedding party, including the kids! He went above and beyond our expectations and our photos are amazing! We will definitely use him again for more photos in our future!

We hired Steve for our wedding and he did a fantastic job. Steve was referred to us by our babysitters sister. Steve was well worth checking out. He was ready and willing to do anything I asked of him. My wedding photo's turn out wonderfull. Also Steve's staff is incredibly nice and friendly.

I have worked wiht Steve Rouch before. I helped him with my friends wedding and was very impressed with him and I knew I wanted to use him for our big day. We first used him for our engagement shoot, that was a lot of fun, we did it outside, and I was sooo impressed with the pictures I bought all of the proofs and a cd so I could make copies of them. Then when it came to the big day, his staff called a montha head to get all the details, very nice. Then Steve himself called to verify what time he would be at the site. When he started taking pictures it was soo much fun and I felt like he really loved his job. There were so many neat angles he used, it was amazing. If you are willing to pay a higher price he is well worth it. The prices are my only complaint, but I would refer this photographer to anyone!!!

Worked perfectly with wedding party. Very professional. Pictures exceeded our expectations. Shots looked very natural almost candid.

Steve Rouch was very professional. He was on time which we appreciated. We were very impressed with his creativity. Our photos are very unique. We would definitely refer him to our friends and family. Great work Steve!

Steve and his staff really took the time to go over all the details before the big day and did a great job during the busy day. Love our lasting memories of the event.

Our photos were fantastic. The service was great. It was definitely on the upper end of pricing.

We hired this photographer for our wedding in February 2010. The images are amazing! Steve worked very hard and was very patient with our large groups. He really knew how to get people to relax and have fun instead of being nervous in front of the camera. I'm hoping to use Steve in the future for some family portraits as well! Thanks, Steve!

We first met Steve at the Twin Cities Bridal Show this past January. I had just recently picked up his business card at my doctor's office and wanted to talk to him about our wedding, so it was perfect to run into him at the show. He was a blast to talk to and we got a lot of great information on what/how to do to make our wedding turn out great. We had a ton of kids to work with at our wedding and a limited amount of time to get the photos in, but Steve and his team had a plan and we were able to get everything we wanted. He works really well with kids of all ages :) too. We were SO excited to be able to see the pictures online in less than a week after the wedding. We finally got to meet back up with him at the studio to review our pics. We had a great time viewing the slideshow that they had put together for us and the photobook too. I think with their experience you cannot go wrong with working with Steve and his team.

Me and my husband just got married over christmas. Steve and his staff were amazing. The pictures turned out beautiful. I love the fact that while you took the pictures you got to see how they would look. He made the day go by so smoothly. Every element of our wedding was captured!

The photography of the pictures are some that I have never seen. The quality and clarity is exquiste. Our photographer was fun and we never felt rushed to get our pictures completed on time. We were given free engagement pictures just by booking them for the wedding. The price was about average, yet the number of pictures you get plus the copyright of your photos was well worth it.

Steve and Marsha both were wonderful and very helpful through the entire process.

We felt like he spent more time with the rest of the families than us. Would have liked him to understand that there were some set backs that were not his fault earlier in the day. More expensive also.

I LOVED my results with Rouch. They provided several photographers for the day and they were great at getting both posed and photo journalistic photos. We also loved the final product. My one complaint is the price. It was very pricey! So if you want great service and quality and are willing to pay, Rouch is great.

Overall Steve did a great job. He was great at getting everyone to smile for the photos, and my photos were beautiful.Some of his business practices are a little corny, like signing all these "waivers", etc. But, it was worth all the paperwork.Going back to review my photos was a little like a used car shop - high pressure, gotta make that sale kind of feel. Yet, at the end of the day my photos turned out great and I love them, so I think it was worth it.

The photos turned out very well. I would say it's definitely pricey, since he doesn't include any engagement photos or bridal portraits with his wedding package, so when you're spending a couple grand on the wedding package, be ready to spend at least one more on the other sessions.We didn't have Steve, but Joel. However, we knew about this ahead of time and cannot complain. Joel was great! He worked with what we wanted and took many nice photos. It would of been nice if more creativity was involved at that price, but it's something I can live with.Overall, I am satisfied with their services. I would recommend them, however, do shop around and make sure you have the budget to hire Steve.

This is a very popular photographer around the twin cities, and came highly recommended. For all the hype that he got we were a little disapointed with the ourcome of our pictures. They were nice, but not great. There were only a few that were "Christmas card" worthy. And even fewer that were good enough to hang in our home. He was also over priced compared to other photographers in the area, and we would have probably picked someone else if we had spent more time looking for a photographer.

I thought that we would be getting the actual Steve Rouch but we didn't, we got his partner. My expectations were high since they were spendy and from the examples that I saw...I expected him to be great. The guy we had did very simple, traditional pictures. Nothing fancy or original which is what I was looking for. We were very disappointed with the lack of creativity. We do have a few shots that we love but again, for the money, to us, not worth it. Plus, our photographer hit on my sister-im-law...not very professional.

This photographer was just ok. I expected more for the money I spent. The photographer did have some nice pictures but some that I really wanted didn't turn out as well. They were not very responsive once the wedding was done. I tried to get my pictures and it took forever! And when I did get my pictures I didn't get all of them so I had to go back. If you are in a crunch and need a photographer I would recommend this one, but if you have time I would try to find another.

We have ok pictures and it isn't what I expected from a master photographer. Our photos in the beginning don't have my husband smiling and my husband didn't know he wasn't smiling. Steve didn't seem to relax us too well. He missed things in photos like socks showing (people needing to pull their pants down more), people smiling or needing to relax. He picked a bad area in the basement with an awful background for a photo.

Great pictures. Some issues with communication and flexibility. They have a way of handling brides and don't react well with changes.

He was very dishonest with us. He has not provided us with anything that we purchased. We viewed the pictures online, they are terrible. The pictures look like they were taken by a random guest at the wedding. They lack any style or creativety and were an absolute waste of money. I would not recommend him. Not only was his work terrible but he was also very rude and dishonest with us. Be careful!!

Putting it bluntly...the photographer was a joke!! I would not recommend him to anyone seeking a "Professional" Photographer for any wedding!! He came to the wedding with a stupid head bandana, dressed like a slob which was totally embarrassing for a grand occassion such as a wedding!! He took way to many duplicate photos and most of, very standard quality...nothing special. He took many photos that should NOT have been taken through the viewer of a talented photograhers eye!!! He took a photo of my daughters pearl and diamond wrist braclet she was wearing and went ahead and took the shot of the one and only area of the braclet that was missing a pearl!! He took a picture of the outside church sign and wedding program at an angle instead of centered, chopping off a good part of the wording which is inexcusable!! (he took no pic of the church it self!) If you wear glasses...for get it!! He botched up so bad on it, telling the victim (brides dad) to angle his head down which caused him to look over the top of the rim on all the pics looking totally stupid!! He took a beautiful pic of my mom but didn't adjust her necklace which was way off center! Every photo of the bride sitting down after the wedding at the alter in the group shots revealed a good portion of her white netting underslip!!! She also had the most beautiful trane inwhich was not adjusted, just crumpled up like crap and the so called photographer viewing these matters and not mentioning or doing anything about it!!!! The pic of the union candle shots (3) was not taken close view but rather a very lazy long range shot which included the maid of honor stooping down trying to rearrange the brides beautiful long trane!! He took a wasted picture of all the groomsmen when, it was later discovered at least one was not present until someone pointed this out to him!! Dah! He also took way to many pictures using wide angle instead of vertical so, if you want any 8X10's good luck!! Alot of the pictures where also missing the left frame oddly?? They were not squared off on the left side also leaving a brownish faded area!! So disappointing!! The grooms mother is the one who contracted this photograher to do the wedding because of the wonderful reviews/awards...what ever but, aside from a very few pics that I thought was amazing and creative...over all it was very shotty! Never even captured the garter tosses and, the 1st dance had to be done mock (ahead of time) because he demanded and extra $150 to stay on a little bit longer at the reception to take a couple more pics!! He didn't even take a pic after the wedding of the bride and groom at the alter with the minister! Soooo sad! But its over with now and can't turn back the hands of time!! Not even sure if the photographer was, "The Steven Rouch!!" Didn't know until after reading all the reviews that it may have been possible that a, different photograher other then, Steven Rouch would be taking the wedding photos that day!!?? Makes me wonder what clown they had sent?? If it was Mr Rouch...shame on you!!! Make sure on who the actual photograher coming is!!!!!!!!!!! Or, play it safe and, just go elsewhere to a more repetable company!
