Steve Holmes Photography
I am a professional photographer living in Keene, New Hampshire. I specialize in personal brand photography and portraits of families, children, and high school seniors. Most of my work is in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, New York and Maine, but I am able to travel anywhere for destination photography.
Services
We all see the world in a unique way, and my own photographic vision has been shaped by the interesting people and places that have been a part of my life.

Before becoming a full time professional photographer, I worked as an educator in a variety of different contexts including training outdoor educators in Alaska, working with East African rangers and guides in Kenya, instructing graduate students in the art of science education, and teaching high school filmmaking & photography students.These experiences were great preparation for the life of a photographer.
In the fall of 2013, we built a barn-style studio on our property in Keene, NH. I played an integral role in the design process to ensure the space provided my clients with a great photography experience: from the greeting room for discussing your future session, to the projection screen for displaying your beautiful portraits, to the bathroom and dressing room for getting ready for your studio session.
As your Senior Portrait photographer, I am devoted to creating a memorable experience that's all about you. It's about being able to express yourself and remember this moment in time. Check out the images below to get a sense of some of the possibilities. Then head on to the next page to learn more about planning & pricing for your session.
As a husband and father myself, I understand how important family photographs are. Whether it is an intimate family portrait, an annual portrait of your children, or a large family reunion, they are all special moments in your life. These images are irreplaceable representations of those moments, and I am reminded of their value with each portrait I create.

We would highly recommended Steve and his team! They are very professional, diligent, kind and super easy to work with!
When we saw the photos that they took for our wedding, we were deeply impressed with how amazing they turned out! Steve and Chris have this vision to take the most epic photos, and they have the professional gear and skills to make it happen!
Apart from photos themselves, the whole process of working and communicating with them was so smooth and a great experience in itself. Steve had this list of questions for us to answer before the wedding so that he could better understand

Steve was great to work with for my daughter's senior pictures. He put her at ease, and devoted a lot of time, between in-studio and off -site photo sessions, to put together a package that reflects my daughter's personality. He was professional, timely, and personable.

Steve photographed my wedding. I didn't believe the magic of that day could be captured, but when I saw the first selection of photos come back my mind was blown. Steve did it! The light, the laughter and the love- it's all there in his incredible collection from our day. I can't thank him enough for his contribution.

We would absolutely recommend Steve to anyone who is looking to hire a photographer. He was very professional, friendly, helpful and flexible right from the beginning of our interactions when we contacted him about photographing our intimate wedding. He blended seamlessly into the event, somehow managing alternatively to capture wonderful little moments as they were happening, suggest beautiful spots to take additional pictures, and help everyone feel at ease by chatting and laughing with our families while taking portraits (while also gently coaching us to arrive at really great pictures that

This past October Steve shot a wedding at Mount Sunapee Resort where I am the in-house wedding coordinator. It was an absolute pleasure working with him and his assistant the day of the wedding. Not only was he very professional but also friendly and great to work with. The images he captured were simply amazing and breathtaking.
Certainly consider him for your photography needs!

I took my 4 year old, energetic toddler into have some portraits done with Steve. I had avoided getting them done because my son is not the sit still type and at 4, I don't want him to be. Steve engaged my son the moment we came in and the sparkle in my son's eye (as well as his dimple that only shows up with REAL smiles) came out. Steve worked with my son while directing him to get some truly amazing shots. Steve's willingness to embrace the energy and style of his subject results in stunning photos that have depth.
Do I plan on using Steve again? YES! Absolutely.
And I really must say the Studio

Steve went above and beyond for our wedding. We initially hired him to do our engagement session to try him out to see if we liked working with him. Very shortly into the engagement session we knew we were very comfortable with him. The pictures were amazing and we were thrilled to hire him for the wedding. Steve approached our wedding with a very personal touch and he went over every detail to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. It rained all weekend and we had to move the location of the ceremony, which Steve dealt with in stride. The pictures were incredible and it made it that much better

I hired Steve to capture the actual moment that I asked my then girlfriend to be my bride. We planned the moment out a head of time and Steve was right on the money. He captured a perfect photo of the proposal.
My wife and I really enjoyed working with Steve and the excellent quality of his photos so we asked him to come down to Long Island and photograph our wedding. He did and as we had expected the pictures were fantastic.
Steve has warm and calm manor, he understands how to work with people and really gets the best from them. As the years pass my wife and I plan to return to Steve to capture

Hiring Steve to photograph our wedding was such a great decision. At first, he did our engagement session and we knew right away that we wanted him for our wedding. He was so easy to work with and makes you feel extremely comfortable. He is extremely talented and loves to take chances with his photography. Our wedding was in an area that he had never photographed before which inspired him and made for amazing pictures. He captured all of the wonderful moments of our wedding that we will cherish forever. I would HIGHLY recommend him!!
