About

I am an extremely upbeat, happy, and fun-loving person, and I bring all of this energy and flow to your wedding photography experience. From the beginning we work closely together to make sure your vision and my vision are synced up, and I'm happy to say that nearly all of my wedding couples become real friends down the road. Nothing makes me happier than getting to know the two of you in the months leading up to your wedding and then celebrating the big day in such a special, important way.

My work is color-focused and real: I don't force you into awkward poses, and I'm not about to take over your wedding day with my own ideas about what it should look like. My process is very organic, and while I make sure to capture the details of the day and all of your family snaps, the photos that tend to be favorites are the ones that were taken when you didn't even realize I was there. I'm a pro at helping you be at ease during your photos and also a little Harry Potter-esque in my ability to seemingly disappear at a reception but still get all the shots you wanted — and I don't even have an Invisibility Cloak.

Weddings in and near Portland are $1300, Oregon and Washington shindigs are $1550, and weddings in the rest of the US begin at $2000. All packages include full day coverage, an engagement session, photo rights, and a second photographer OR 8×10 hardcover wedding album — you pick! After paying your 25% deposit, you can pay in installments or in full, check or credit card.

While I'm based in Portland, I will travel pretty much anywhere. Seriously.

Stephanie was the perfect photographer for us! Planning a wedding in a state that neither we or our families lived in was pretty stressful, but finding Stephanie early on in the process was a life saver. She was extremely flexible and worked with us on a package that fit our situation since we had a shorter timeline than a traditional wedding and wouldn't be able to take advantage of engagement photos which are normally included in her packages. Her pricing was extremely affordable and you get a lot more than you pay for! Our photos came out beautifully and were ready just a few weeks after our wedding. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

We Loved Stephanie and had the best time with her for our Elopment/guerrilla pop up wedding! She really made the day better just by being there and making us feel so at ease.

Stephanie is amazing! She was completely flexible doing our engagement shoot since we had to come in from BC after Christmas. Stephanie did a great job capturing "us" during the wedding. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

WE LOVE STEPHANIE!!

My husband and I were in search of a wedding photographer that had a unique, off-beat vibe just like we do. We wanted photos that were us as we are, not us over-Photoshopped or awkwardly posed. Through a couple of lucky coincidences we found Stephanie shortly after she moved here and we are SO glad we did. She captured each moment of our wedding so beautifully and honestly. She never pushed us into poses or gave us orders, she just let the moments unfold and was there to capture every gorgeous one.

Not only are her photos beautiful, but she is so laid back and easy to get along with. We felt totally comfortable with Stephanie from the moment we met her. Plus she was cool as a cucumber at the wedding - which helped us relax a little too. Her easy going attitude kept us calm amidst all the craziness!

She sent us the link to our photos the day after we returned from our honeymoon (so quick!) and we were blown away by how wonderful they are! We've received so many compliments about how unique and beautiful our wedding photos are and we couldn't agree more.

Stephanie did an amazing job, is a genuinely fantastic and talented person and we would recommend her to anyone!!

Hiring Stephanie was one of the best things I did for my wedding. Not only are her photos incredible, she's an amazing person. You spend a lot of time with your wedding photographer, and it makes the experience 100 times better if you enjoy hanging out with them as much as we did with Stephanie.

When I was looking around at photographers, I noticed many have their specialities. Some are good at taking stunning artistic shots. Some are more journalistic, and others are great at the detail shots. When you hire Stephanie, you don't have to choose. She captured gorgeous artistic black and white shots as well as the most tender moment during our first dance.

Also, her rates were incredibly reasonable. Seriously, email her and find out. If you don't think you can afford wedding photography, you might be able to after all if you hire Stephanie.

She is a genuinely kind person who loves what she does. Working with her was a real pleasure, and I now consider her a friend.

Not only are our photos totally gorgeous, but we had a great time working with Stephanie! My husband and I aren't even the only ones who love her--as soon as we posted a link to a selection of photos, guests who were at our wedding, and some who didn't make it couldn't stop commenting on the pictures for like a week! Everyone is so happy!

We all loved working with Stephanie so much that we're definitely planning on bringing her up to Seattle whenever we need a photographer! She was a complete joy to work with!

Crimson and Clover were absolutely fantastic! Not only were her photos wonderful (as you can see from her portfolio easily), but Stephanie herself is a bright, intelligent, competent personality that was a joy to work with. I was organising my wedding from across the country and yet I never worried for a moment, as she earned my trust immediately and never disappointed. She's just lovely, and I feel lucky that I could have such talent photographing my wedding.

I have known Stephanie since the very beginning of her photography journey & it has been such a joy to watch her grow into the artist that she is today! Her eye for the small, usually overlooked, details are wonderful & her passion for capturing a couple's lovestory is something to be admired!

Stephanie worked with my fiance (now husband) and I for our engagement and wedding phots. She was so easy to work with! Our photos were great! I would highly recommend Stephanie to others! She is a photographer who truly loves what she does and you can see that in her photos.
