"I was lucky enough to work with Stephen twice during my tour to Australia - a duo shoot with poetic minx and a solo shoot. Stephen really contributed to making my trip a success and making it a wonderful experience! Firstly, his pre comms were fantastic. Straight to the point and professional. Though he was kind enough to recommend photographers he knew as well as giving me tips on things to do in the area. He also sent me his fantastic e-book which really showed me how he liked to work! Working with Stephen is not like work at all! He is one of my new favourite people to shoot with ever!!! We had 2 amazing shoots together and both were so fun and relaxed! Stephen is respectful, professional and has a really great attitude! His passion and enthusiasm just beans out which I love! During both shoots Stephen was so kind - and made sure I was fed and watered etc. He took me to some lovely cafes which just added to the experience! The locations he took me too were just incredible!!! So beautiful! We went to bombo quarry and the blue maintains so it was so great to get such a wonderful range of shots with him! I will also say that Stephen is the BEST PREPARED/EQUIPT photographer I've ever worked with!! He thought if everything!! Towels, first aid kit (which was needed due to cuts on feet), spare t-shirt, coats, water, emergency food. The list goes on! Oh....a brush! To brush away leaves etc which we used! Just so well prepared it was fabulous! A very considerate person which extended to during the shoot also - he was patient with me when I was warming up in between shots in the colder location. As well as assisting me when I was climbing rocks etc in way of warning me when waves were coming etc. As photographer Stephen is great!! He experimented with angles/ compositions etc ! He has a really great eye! And gets really creative! His ability to light locations in a way which looks like natural light is brilliant! So technically and artistically fabulous! I really enjoyed my time with Stephen and I can't wait to see the shots! He really inspired me and I feel I did some of my best work with him! I really hope we can shoot again when I next visit!! Highly recommended by me" Read less

"It doesn't get better than this! Stephen is one of my favorite photographers to work with, hands down. We had a lovely shoot in a pleasant pace, great conversations, and I felt totally safe and very respected as a model the whole time. And on top of that - the images afterwards look STUNNING and several of them have ended up on my website in my portfolio. THANK YOU Stephen! I really hope to work with you next time!" Read less

"Swong is a wonderful soul to meet and work with! He was a professional, respectful, reliable, hospitable, and personable photographer. Swong went above and beyond expectations. I cannot say enough words to express my gratitude for his help during my trip to Sydney. I should say that it is not even possible to sum up the amount of words needed to explain Swong’s kindness, as he is truly a great person. I highly recommend him! :)" Read less

"Stephen is a very talented photographer with a good commend of light. We shot at night in the city, on location in Foundation park. I couldn’t be happier with how the pictures turned out. Stephen is professional and very creative. We shot for two hours in the ruins, Stephen gave me good directions and made me feel comfortable at all times. Communication before the photo was clear and meeting point was easy to find. I highly recommend working with him." Read less

"My very first shoot Down Under! Totally worth the early wake up to catch the sunrise at Bombo/Kiama in NSW. Well I shouldn’t even be mentioning this! I was staying fifteen minutes away from the shoot location, it was Stephen who had to wake up at 3am and drive South from Sydney ;) but that just shows how passionate about photography Stephen is. Super friendly, focused, skilled photographer. Fantastic experience that set me on the right track for the whole month I spent roadtripping Oz. Thrilled to see where we could go and shoot next time! XOXO and my best recommendations :*" Read less
