“Steve Wagner was excellent! He completely understands what our needs were with regard to product photos that we needed for our website. Before we hired Wagner, we had hired two other photographers that could not get our pictures to look the way we wanted, but Steve was able to make them look perfect and took the time and effort to make sure we were happy. He is a perfectionist and goes out of his way to provide very high-quality photographs for his clients. Steve was also very easy to work with and communicated well with us. I would highly recommend Wagner Photo-Grafx!”
