About
My name is Steve Fanning and I've been a professional photographer video producer for over 45 years. I treated every client as though they're are my family. You pay a fixed rate for the on location session. You own all of the images which, I edit and touch up, and delivered them to you within 24 to 48 hours See more of my work at www.statefanning.com
My wife Cecily and I are from San Antonio. From 2014 through 2021 we moved to Hawaii. It was incredible. We've moved back to San Antonio now and I am continuing my career here. So many of my photography examples you will see on my website and those I send to you are from Hawaii but we're back home again here in SA Texas. (We kept our Hawaii 808 phone #s to remind us of our great times we had there.) 🤟👍
I enjoy creating tangible photographic memories that become priceless over time. I know it's difficult at times to get families all together to have photographs taken but it's worth it. Regret for things done can be tempered by time is the regret for things not done that is inconsolable. I look forward to hearing from you. www. [email protected]

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My goal is to first meet their needs and add additional creative options and above all have fun creating memories. I'm never in a hurry and cut corners on quality but I work fast especially with young kids.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated in 1981 from Baylor University with a degree in media and religion. It was helpful but the most of the equipment and acquisition of photography was not even invented back then. My main training and experience come from over 40 years as a full-time professional photographer and video producer. You can have a fancy camera but you still have to know where and how to point it.
How did you get started in this business?
Real estate photography, family photography and publication photography at age 16.
What types of customers have you worked with?
Every one.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
We moved to Hawaii in 2014 and started and created a business there and moved back to San Antonio Texas in July of 2021. Or Hawaii experience was the best of our lives.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
I best advice is to find someone with experience and that cares about your needs. Just spending more money on a project does not necessarily mean you will get the photographs, etc you want.
