Ever wonder about the people behind the pictures?  Well here you go!  Beckman Photography is the joint effort of Stephen and Stepheni Beckman, a husband and wife team!  We were married in 2010 and have two beautiful boys.  We have been doing photography together for years, and love the opportunities it gives us to preserve memories.  We have come a long way since we first started together in Rexburg, Idaho, but that goal has remained the same.  Over the years photography has given us many opportunities for service and making friends!  We are now based in Anthem near Phoenix Arizona.

 

Stephen Beckman

Stephen Beckman is the man behind the camera.  He has been practicing photography since 2008.  He graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho, with a major in Applied Mathematics, having studied computer science, Spanish, photography, and theater arts.  Stephen specializes in portrait and event photography. He especially enjoys photographing weddings and events because they are such special memories and moments.

I believe that there is always beauty around us and in those who surround us, we just have to know what to look for. I'm of the spiritual persuasion and I believe we are all children of God and that finding and seeing that innate and inherent beauty is part of recognizing that nature and potential.

"Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses." -C.S. Lewis

With camera in hand, that eternal nature of each individual is just a bit easier for me to see. Every person is a treasure when you are looking for those things that make them unique and special. Photography has opened up my eyes to those very qualities that I am trying to capture in a picture, and the absolute truth that each person in this world is worth the time for a picture, and many more. I'm interested in capturing these things for families and individuals who are interested in recording those things but may not know the best way to do so. My goal will always be to help those around me to see and preserve wonderful memories.
