About Birchfields

Photographer + Videographer + Musician + Father + Husband

Steven Berkenkemper is Birchfields

Photographed here in 2001, playing a punk show at a skate park when I was 11.

My journey with film photography began in 2003, and I filmed my first wedding in 2009. After completing a Bachelor's Degree in Audio Engineering, I pursued photo/video work full time. In 2014 I began composing and recording original music to accompany my films. I'm one of only 2 or 3 filmmakers that uses original music in much of my work. I'm thankful to have found wonderful clients over many years who appreciate this endeavor, share a love of fine art, and trust me to capture their stories.

I try to see my clients with fresh eyes from our first conversations to the final edit, and I hope to keep telling beautiful stories for beautiful people. I’ve had the honor of capturing weddings and events across Europe, New Zealand, Alaska, South America and much of the United States.
