Reviews of Harvard Studio Photography (Photo Studio)

Matthew Griffiths

I've had the huge good fortune to be photographed by Steve Hockstein. The photoshoot was part of an incentive trip through my workplace and, as I'd never done anything like this before, I could not be more impressed by how Steve looked after us, kept us at ease, made us feel comfortable and, probably most importantly, made me look anywhere near presentable - a tough job very, very well done, my friend!

Harvard Studio came to our medical school to take headshots and capture "match day", a special event where senior medical students find out where they will go for residency. For the headshots: The photographer and his assistant were incredibly professional and courteous. They guided you through different poses and made you feel very comfortable during the process. They have wonderful attention to detail and are clearly experienced with taking polished professional photos. The photographer was very prompt with email communication and the photos turned out great! Would definitely recommend for special events or headshots to anyone!

Steve is the best! We have used him for family photos in the past- he is fun, professional, responsive - and most importantly delivers a stellar product! Cannot recommend highly enough! (Also great with dogs!)

Harvard Studio Photography and Steve are great! My family used Harvard Studio for wonderful family portraits 20 years ago, and then had Steve recreate some of the same shots now that the girls are adults. My law firm has since used Harvard Studio for all of the attorney photos that now appear on our website. Very professional and patient!

Steve was awesome to work with for my work event as a part of Rutgers Day! He took photos of us participating in Event activities, including a flag football tournament. He got some really great action shots and photos of our staff participation.

Fantastic experience! Steve was able to fit me in at the last minute for a session for a headshot. Results were phenomenal! He took well over 100 pics with different angles, lightings, etc and in the end sat down with me to narrow down my favorites! Never felt rushed, and he was very patient (I’m a terrible picture taker)!! He even got my final edited photo back to me even faster than anticipated! 10/10 Highly recommend!

Excellent experience w/ corporate photo shoot - highly recommend!

Grace Lee

I had a wonderful experience with Harvard Studio when they came to our university hospital to take professional headshots. The photographer and his assistant were organized, efficient, professional, and made all those who had their pictures taken feel very comfortable. Both of them were greatly detail-oriented and experienced, as the assistant helped polishing and the photographer gave great guidance cues for 6-8 different poses/pictures. After the photos were taken, I was very satisfied with the communication with Steve. He responded promptly with regards to sending the photos, and they came out great. Would highly recommend Harvard Studio to anyone!

I've had the pleasure of working with Steve and his team on several occasions since 2012. Service and quality are consistently first rate. Having worked with other photographers and studios in the past for corporate work, I can confidently report that Harvard Studio Photography stands head and shoulders over the competition.

I came across Harvard Studio Photography in a simple search on Google. I needed headshots for our management team for a new website we are launching. Working with Steve was so easy, to work with a real professional: patient, friendly and with a great eye. He came to our office and was very efficient with our time which helped us to get the shots we wanted within our budget. We received all the photos within 24 hours in separate easily manageable online albums. I was very pleased with the end result -highly recommended!

Steve is our go-to New Jersey and New York photographer. We have worked with him for several years to capture images for our publications. Whether it’s an extended shoot with multiple setups or a simple headshot, Steve delivers and is the utmost professional. Highly recommended.

I could not have been happier with the professional shots Steve took of/for me. I wanted a natural, updated look. He delivered. I am so proud to share my new business cards and marketing materials. I highly recommend Steve.

Steve was fantastic! He truly knows what he is doing. I walked in there not knowing what I wanted except that I needed business headshots. Steve knew exactly which backdrop and what type of lighting to use to enhance my photos. I am beyond thrilled with the outcome!!
