About

My name is Stefanie Marie and I love shooting love. If you haven't already booked a photographer, I'd love to be considered for your special day! I don't like to put my photography style in one specific category where instead I'd describe it as being centered around each unique couple's wants and needs and doing everything in my power to capture their day. My bride and groom are my priority and with my own husband working as my second shooter, we team together to ensure that the couple really enjoys and experiences their wedding day.

Couples photos are very intimate and personal and I want to ensure you’re comfortable with me and know your happiness and experience is the most important thing for me during the shoot. We’ll ease you into the shoot and ensure you’re both comfortable in front of the camera! Before the wedding we'll hop on a call and discuss everything there is to know from family dinamics to special moments you don't want to miss! I also curate a Pinterest board with each bride and groom to pinpoint their ideal vision.

In addition to weddings, I also shoot engagement photos, boudior sessions, bachelorette/bachelor parties, rehearsal dinners and everything in between. Most of my clients become lifelong friends and I happily have been a part of many of their special life moments from weddings to child birth to family pictures and more.

I typically shoot on four or five different cameras during each session including film, digital, Super 8 Video, VHS and Polaroid. I also include behind the scenes content of the days to relive on your phones and for your social platforms. Happy to create Tiktoks and Reels any chance we get! Please feel free to reach out, let's chat!

We love Stefanie!!!

We absolutely loved working with Stefanie! When my friend who was meant to shoot our wedding got pregnant and was no longer available, we were referred to Stefanie by a client of mine. We only met over the phone before the wedding day but immediately we had a good feeling because she had such a sweet and calm demeanor. The wedding day came and we finally met in person and we just immediately felt comfortable with her. She is so sweet and so intuitive and really just has a great eye! I thought I would feel sad to miss out on our cocktail hour but my we actually had so much fun taking our photos and never felt like we were missing anything!
Another amazing perk is that her husband was able to shoot some super 8 video for us!
It felt meant to be that our original plan didn’t work out and we for to work with Stefanie!

Adore stefanie!

Stefanie is incredibly talented and a pleasure to work with. She took our engagement photos in Santa Barbara, and they turned out amazing. Her eye for detail and ability to work with natural light made the photos feel effortless. I was running late and feeling frantic, but she was so kind and patient throughout the process. Her calm demeanor helped me relax, and it really showed in the final images. If you’re looking for a skilled photographer who’s also easy to work with, I highly recommend Stefanie.

Exceeded All Expectations

Stefanie photographed our intimate backyard elopement and she exceeded all of our expectations. Stefanie was calm and easy to work with throughout the day and provided valuable insight and clear communication as we were planning. Not only was Stefanie a pleasure to work with, but we also are in love with how Stefanie captured the celebrations and love of the day. We now have beautiful photographs to remember the day and share with our family and friends forever and will be forever thankful for Stefanie and her talented work. Thank you!

Highly reccommend!

We had an amazing experience with Stefanie! She was incredibly patient and made both of us feel at ease, especially since we were both a bit camera shy. Her guidance throughout the day helped everything flow smoothly, and she captured every special moment beautifully. We love our pictures! Highly recommend!

The best photographer!

I hired Stefanie to shoot my rehearsal dinner and wedding and I could not recommend her enough! She focused solely on my husband and I but also befriended all our family and friends. If I could have 100 weddings with husband, I would hire her for every single one! Thank you so much Stefanie!!

The best in the biz

Stef was the best part of m wedding day! It was about 109 degrees on our wedding day which is not ideal but Stef worked around it and made sure my husband and I were comfortable and happy the whole day. Despite wanting to spend limited time outside she made sure to capture the BEST photos of us in a not ideal setting (dripping sweat). She ran the whole show and I am so grateful to her and her expertise. I could not be happier to have had her by my side the whole day and with how the pictures came out.

Would recommend!!

I hired Stefanie to photograph my wedding in October, she made the process super easy and was really efficient. As a type A bride I really wanted to book my photographer asap and I was able to book Stefanie within a couple days. My photos came out better than I could even imagine and I would recommend booking with her to everyone I know!
