Our Mission

“In portrait photography I have one job, to make you, my client, look your absolute best. For this, I need you to be relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. Through a mixture of direct and indirect coaching, a sense of humor, and sometimes just being plain silly, I help you become more comfortable so your true self shines through. I never leave you wondering what to do next because I will teach you the poses and looks that work best. It’s by working together, as a team, that we will create portraits that show your confidence and personality. And in the process, we’ll have an enjoyable, fun photo shoot that you will remember forever.” ~Steven

5 Star Testomonials

  • Colleen S.Colleen S.High school senior portrait photography

    I wish I could give Steven more stars than 5. My daughter needed her senior pictures taken. We thought we had someone lined up, but it fell through. Steven was able to schedule an appointment very quickly, as we were under time pressure. Then the bad weather hit. We had to reschedule. My daughter has problems with anxiety. Steven had her laughing and smiling within a few minutes. The pictures turned out great and we had a great time.

  • Angie TAngie TProfessional Headshots

    Bourelle Photography is a joy to partner with! Steven is friendly, proficient in his craft, and makes the process of taking professional headshots fun and easy. He gave clear and simple to follow directions for posing and took our input into consideration for what made each of us comfortable to take a successful picture. He showed us the images after capturing them to get our insights, and the final products were beautiful! Our organization is pleased to recommend Bourelle Photography and would love to work with Steven again in the future.

    Steve was personal, prompt, and responsive. He was willing to take feedback and make adjustments quickly. I highly recommend him and am highly pleased with his work.

  • Lorna GLorna GPet Portrait Photography

    I saw some of the wonderful dog photos taken by Bourelle Photography on FB. I heard about a fundraiser for HOPE Safehouse, which involved getting a photo of my puppy, Jackpot, and made time for this. To be honest, I wasn't sure if my energetic puppy could be sit enough for a photo. Steven and crew were so good, and the photo of Jackpot is terrific! Very impressive.

  • Zach P.Zach P.Solo portrait photography

    Steven did a nice job and fit the needs of my project well.

  • Laura U.Laura U.High school senior portrait photography

    We were scheduled on a Saturday and Mr. Bourelle was unable to make the appt, he called me as soon as he could and rescheduled the next day. Turned out to be a nicer day for outdoor pictures and the shots that he showed me were very good. He climbed around trees and logs to get the best shots. He took shots that I wanted as well as ones he thought would look best. I was very happy with the way our appointment went. I would recommend him to anyone needing pictures taken.

  • John S.John S.Professional Headshots

  • Chris R.Chris R.Professional Headshots

    Steve was amazing! I would recommend Steve for anyone looking to get a professional headshot. Once I put my headshot on my social media pages, I received so many compliments from friends and business professionals. What I loved about working with Steve is how personable and comfortable he made me feel throughout the entire process. He was committed to getting the right shot but was open to any ideas that I had.
