About Heritage House

Stephen Mayo Photography

Lead Photographer

I started my business to provide a different experience. This is your wedding, your day, your story. I document couples by getting to know them, providing value based on my experience, and capturing authentic moments throughout their wedding. By understanding each couple, learning about their story and listening to what their dreams are about their wedding, I want to give them an exceptional wedding photography experience. I want you to enjoy every moment of your wedding, and I want to provide you with honest, compelling, emotional, and romantic imagery that will bring you joy every time you look at the images.

We provide a fully customized, boutique level service. By understanding your vision, we are able to deliver images that exceed expectations while you enjoy your day. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, and often, couples don't know where to begin. We work to provide stunning imagery, and in addition, we provide an amazing resource throughout the months we work with couples. Our experience has helped us become an incredible resource, and we share our experiences. We are here for you throughout the entire process.

    Stephen is wonderful as a person, and as a photographer. We really did not have any concerns when booking with him. We did our engagement shoot with him and our photos came out so beautifully, so we knew our wedding photos would be exceptional. From the time that we booked with Stephen to the wedding day, he was always in contact with us, whether it was to answer our questions or to send little tips, suggestions, and reminders about the wedding day, he was always so easy to get in contact with. On the wedding day, he let me know when he was on his way to the venue, and he arrived early to scout out the best places for us to have our first look and to take family photos. He always confirmed with us before taking pictures or choosing a background for our photos. He’d give us options of where we wanted to take pictures and he’d ask us if we wanted more photos of just us. It was obvious that he wanted us to have exactly what we wanted and that he cared about us getting as many photos as we could. He does a great job at posing you or telling you to make minor adjustments, so that you can look as natural as possible, while also looking your best. He was truly a pleasure to work with and his photos really do come out beautifully. We hope to work with him again in the future!

    Stephen is an incredible photographer and we are so glad we chose him to capture our wedding day! From the moment I contacted him he made it clear that he was there for us and would do what he can to make our day perfect, and he absolutely delivered on that! From start to finish he provided great support, reassurance, and constant communication. The previews I've seen of our photos so far are amazing and we can't wait to see them all! We highly recommend Heritage House Photography to anyone looking for a photographer for the special moments in their lives.

    There are not enough words to describe how amazing the work of Stephen is. We had an unmatched experience with Heritage House Wedding Photography. Look no further if you are looking for highly professional, competent and skillful wedding photography services. The whole team went above and beyond to make every minute of the process unforgettable, including the smallest details. Guests are still commenting on the seamless way that the wedding day (and previous celebratory events) went through thanks to Stephen's impeccable work ethics and his personalized dedication. Our family is overjoyed with the outcome of our most cherished celebration, and Stephen's role in it was key.

    Stephen Mayo is hands down the BEST. From being incredibly responsive, attentive, and genuinely caring about each moment, he went above and beyond from the moment we chose him for our wedding. He sent over tips that helped us with the planning process, was open to our visions for additional creative projects, and was always eager to help us out. He frequently checked in with us, ensuring we felt comfortable and supported. We really valued his energy and overall vibe. He’s not pushy or demanding; he’s incredibly calm, yet confident in what will achieve the best shot. He always asked if we were okay with things, and even thanked us after every request, making sure everyone felt at ease with the next step. Our friends and family were equally impressed by his demeanor, talent, and organization. He would do anything to get the best shot—whether it meant lying in wet grass, getting on the floor, standing on top of a high chair, or even getting very close to a pond. Stephen is unbelievably talented, knows how to execute, and clearly cares deeply about his work and his brides and grooms. We’re so grateful that he captured the magic of our day. We will definitely continue to be in touch with him to photograph other special moments in our life!
