Absolutely recommend

Our experience with Jenn was excellent. She was super helpful from the first meeting - giving helpful guidance in creating our timelines for the day. On the day of, she created a relaxed vibe and photos felt easy and not posed. We also had some minor delays at start and she easily made adjustments and helped to make me feel less stressed about the delays. She delivered our sneak peaks and final photos right on time (and far sooner than most other photographers guaranteed). I rarely am happy with how I look in photos, so wasn't expecting to find a ton of photos I loved. I can't express enough how amazing the photos they took are - they really captured the love and joy of the day. Whenever I look at the photos, it brings back just how happy we were that day. I'm so glad that we chose Stella Grace Studios for our photographer and would highly recommend her.

Versatile and Easy to Work with

Jenn is by far the easiest vendor we worked with for our wedding. She truly wants to make the occasion special and custom for every bride and groom and takes the time to get to know you both. She really understands how to read people and capture the style of photos they want for their special day. She is incredibly talented and versatile too. We were so happy with our experience working with Jenn that we also hired her to take some family portraits in addition to our wedding photos. Look no further, this is your person for weddings, engagement photos, family or baby pics - she can do it all. Bets of all she has the most positive attitude and it shines through that she loves photography.

Every moment enjoyable.

We were lucky enough to have found Jennifer 8 years ago for our engagement photos. Since then she has been capturing everything from our wedding to our growing family. We are so grateful for every moment she has captured, and will continue to capture.

Stella Grace Studios provided photography services for me wedding last September. They value of their service is amazing. I received 1000's of photos that are mine to keep; and they helped me and my fiancé feel incredibly comfortable. Jenn and her sister took beautiful photos of our friends and family, and seeing all of the cameo photos they took was one of my favorite parts because it helped me feel like I actually saw things that were going on when I wasn't around!

Thanks Jenn!

Stella Grace was a dream come true for wedding photography!! We were on a "budget" but I didn't want to scrimp on my photography as most don't. So, I was searching for a photographer that fit our style and budget. I received three completely separate referrals for Stella Grace - and seriously I could not be happier that we went with them!! Jen and her sister are amazing...our entire wedding party commented on how well they interacted with us. Our other guest who saw our pictures were in awe at how perfect they turned out and really captured our day. I am not a crier and I get teary every time I look at our pictures because they really are that good. Out of all my vendors - Stella Grace is the one who I would say "YOU HAVE TO USE" - even my husband always tells people how great our photos turned out and the relationship that we created with Jen was just perfection!!! I could go on and on about Stella Grace...I wish I could have another event just so I could see them again - maybe a boudoir session for an anniversary??

The first time I met with Jenn I knew she was going to be our photographer. We hit it off immediately and I had complete confidence in her. Within in months she drove all the way out to Eatonville to shoot our engagement photos-at our property- she knew it meant a lot to us to shoot it out there. The photos turned out amazing- it was hard to just pick one for our save the date, so we picked several. Day of the wedding Jenn was so great, she was on time ready to go! We had a huge wedding party and family and managed to make time for all of us. Our wedding party loved Jenn, she was being fun and personable with them. She was there from start to finish- and energized the whole night. (I hope you at least got to eat something!) she captured the first look to the send off with glo-balloons. It was a fairytale ending and when I look back at the photos that's what I see. The photos turned out magical, beautiful, stunning. My favorite are all the detailed shots- they though of everything! When I go back and look at the photos I re-live my most important day of my life. That is a good photographer! Thankyou Jenn for everything!

Jennifer was recommended to us as a photographer. I am more than satisfied with her work. She was very easy to work with! She and her sister blended right in and took photos of everything, including all the decor that I worked so hard to plan. The photos are a blend of formal and relaxed to really catch the mood of our special day. We were given enough prints to fill an entire album as well as a dvd with all the photos taken. I would love to have Jennifer photograph my next big event!

I can't say enough good things about Stella Grace Studios! Jenn and Julie did fabulous work to capture our wedding day!

The day was perfect and we were so grateful for their hard work, energy, humor and sass. Jenn and Julie both were an absolute pleasure to work with and we will be recommending you to everyone who will listen :) We got rave reviews from our bridal party, family members and wedding guests about how great you both were and how much fun people had during pictures. Jenn and Julie have a great working dynamic and were genuinely funny. They had a knack for getting real smiles and laughter and this has definitely come through in the pictures (which we received only 6 weeks after the wedding!)

They were prepared, they took advantage of our venue's setting, and they were flexible when the rare Seattle sun was disappearing and reappearing behind clouds. They kept our smiles from being fake and our eyes from being squinty. They were open to our ideas about ideas for pictures, and flexible with changes we made to their timeline for shooting that day!

Our day was perfect, and if we were going to do it again, we'd call Stella Grace! I've already recommended them to a friend planning her wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
