Talented & Kind

Stephanie is truly exceptional at what she does and she captured the emotions of our wedding day beautifully! Not only is she exceptionally talented, she is one of the kindest people I have ever met. If I could give her a million stars, I would. Dream come true.

Stunning Photos & Exceptional Experience!

Where to begin! We first met Stephanie for our engagement shoot and she immediately made us feel comfortable. It was 98 degrees that day, and the photos still came out spectacularly–you couldn’t tell how warm it was! The way she captured the light near sunset resulted in absolutely stunning photos.

Stephanie was a breeze to work with leading up to the wedding, and on our wedding day, I was so excited to see her again! Her second photographer, Josie, was also fantastic. Stephanie guided us to different spots with a gentle ease that made us feel relaxed and comfortable but also confident that she was in control and would find the best locations on the property.

And the resulting photos were beautiful beyond words! Looking back through our wedding photos, I still get teary-eyed remembering how happy we were and seeing genuine moments of joy throughout the day. I’ve shown my wedding photos to countless friends and family members who have noted how uniquely natural and elegant the photos are.

Stephanie is warm, kind, and relaxes everyone around her. She makes you feel at home and forget she’s there while capturing the most genuine moments from your wedding day (many that we didn’t even realize were happening!). Any photographer can take a professional picture, but it takes a true pro to capture all the intimate, special, and funny parts of the day that you’ll remember forever. It was absolutely wonderful to spend our wedding day with Stephanie and we are eternally grateful to her for capturing our once-in-a-lifetime pictures. We can’t recommend her highly enough!!

Artistic, emotional, beautiful photos

Stephanie is a spectacular artist who will pour her soul into capturing the emotions of your wedding day. She has a refreshing and calm demeanor that will put everyone at ease and make you feel comfortable on a day that tends to be highly stressful. The photos that Stephanie took on our wedding day look like they belong in a high fashion magazine and the way she worked with different lighting, landscapes, and textures turned out really beautiful and unique. We will be able to relive the emotions of our wedding day for the rest of our lives because of these photos! Cannot recommend Stephanie Brauer for wedding photography enough.

Stunning photos, so lovely to work with!

Stephanie is truly an incredible photographer -- her work is gorgeous, with every photo you hope for and want, but so many surprise moments captured and artistic shots as well. We can't say enough about how much we love our photos, and loved working with Stephanie!! She's not just incredibly talented, she's also so very kind, and makes you feel at ease in front of the lens. I know you'll love her as much as we do -- hire her!

Stephanie was a pleasure to work with from the first email I sent to her more than a year before my wedding. Stephanie answered all of my questions, and did such an amazing job of making me feel at ease with the whole process. She was so patient and really helped me create the perfect wedding timeline. On the day of the wedding, she really did such a great job. She captured every little detail of the day in the most beautiful way. She made both my husband and I feel so comfortable when we were taking pictures. I just got my pictures yesterday and I can't stop looking at them! All of my family and friends are raving about them. Stephanie is truly an artist and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is looking for amazing and beautiful wedding pictures to cherish forever.

To begin, Stephanie is an absolutely lovely person who makes you feel warm and welcomed the second you meet her. My fiance (at the time) and I had he pleasure of doing our engagement pictures with Stephanie about 10 months before our big day. We were both a little nervous, but Stephanie made us feel SUPER comfortable right away. Fast forward to our wedding day, Stephanie arrived early and got right to work. Throughout the day, Stephanie captured the raw emotion of the day without being intrusive. She also worked wonderfully with our videographer. At the end of the night, we were sad to see Stephanie leave because she had become more of a friend and guest at the wedding. I would recommend Stephanie Brauer Wedding Photographer to 10/10 engaged couples looking for an unforgettable experience!

We are extremely glad that Stephanie Brauer did the photography for our wedding! We opted for her after looking at dozens upon dozens of wedding photography websites, and we are so glad we did! We are so happy with the photos from our wedding -- Stephanie Brauer has a wonderful way with natural light and her photos brought back all the emotions of our wedding day for us. She was also a calm, kind, and professional presence throughout our wedding!

Having a solid wedding photographer with a style of photography I enjoyed was the most important thing to me aside from having my husband show and committing our lives to each other. I literally looked at hundreds of wedding photography sites hunting for the perfect person. Finally, I reached out to my friends and Stephanie was suggested to me by a friend who just hired her. Shortly after meeting Stephanie I knew she was the one.
We are in love with Stephanie and the amazing photos she created. Stephanie went above and beyond the call of duty. She put both of us at ease immediately with her warm inviting personality. She covered our rehearsal dinner and rolled with every punch when nothing seemed to go right and still got beautiful moments that we will treasure forever.
On our wedding day she was ever present capturing moments we didn't even realize she was there for and capturing the roller coaster of emotions. We will forever treasure the photos she captured. All of our friends and family keep telling us how amazing they are and we may have even create some photo envy. I seriously can not stop looking at our wedding photos.

Choosing Stephanie to help capture our big day was one of the best choices we made surrounding our wedding. She was incredibly professional, meeting first with us through Skype, and then answering countless questions and helping me plan out my big day through email. She was a key player in helping our day unfold smoothly, and her confidence and experience really helped put myself and my family at ease. She captured beautiful candid shots, as well as led the groups through family formals. I am absolutely obsessed with my wedding photos, and couldn't be happier with the investment made in them and Stephanie. She is a truly talented individual that I would not hesitate to work with in the future or recommend to any of my friends or family.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
