Highly recommend!

Late review from my wedding 7 months ago, hired Stephanie for both engagement and wedding photography. Throughout everything she was amazing. She guided us through our awkwardness and was such a calming presence on our wedding day. She was incredibly organized and on top of the day. The photos we received are absolutely perfect. She captured the day without intruding while getting all the shots you know you want to have (including the wrangling of large families) and those tiny/intimate moments you didn’t even know happened. I would 100% recommend her for anyone looking for wedding, engagement or family photos.

This is a well overdue review. We booked Ahava Studios (Stephanie), for our October Wedding in San Francisco. From the beginning, Stephanie was a joy to work with. So responsive to e-mails and once the date got closer she became more of a wedding planner to me. She asked what we wanted, and offered her professional advice and opinions which was greatly appreciated. She knew the best places for pictures in SF and kept us on track the whole day. She had the best attitude all day, rocked and swayed on our boat cruise reception and we heard nothing but amazing things from our guests. They kept asking how we got so lucky with such an amazing and down to earth photographer. She captured the entire day perfectly and it makes me so happy they we chose Ahava Studios. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Not only have I recommended Stephanie Haller Photography to many of my clients, I also chose her to shoot my own wedding last August. Stephanie is fun, laid back and easy to work with. Her style is non-invasive. She is able to capture incredible moments without making the camera the center of attention. We were beyond thrilled with the images we received of our wedding day. I have heard the same from my clients who have worked with her. Recently, I booked Stephanie Haller Photography again to shoot an engagement session for some dear friends of mine. The results were fabulous. I would highly recommend her to any bride for both wedding and engagement photography.

Stephanie is an amazing photographer! I love the way that she captures the emotion in a moment so perfectly, that years later you can look at the picture and feel like you were there again. Thank you for the beautiful pictures you took of my bride and groom.
