About

I’m a traveling photographer based in San Francisco - originally from Los Angeles. While California has always been my home, the world has been my playground. I grew up traveling often, as my mother took me back to her hometown in Brazil every summer to visit with friends and family. The experience of travel has cultivated a passion for understanding different cultures, learning about traditions, and sharing memories with those I love.

These passions and experiences have deeply impacted my work as a photographer. With every new client I am eager to learn about the stories that have led up to this moment. The world and this work have come to fulfill me in ways I never imagined possible!

Beautiful wedding photos!

Stephanie knocked it out of the park with the digital and film photos for our wedding and rehearsal dinner! Stephanie was very easy to communicate with and her artistic style as a photographer is awesome - our photos felt light and effortless (unlike some styles that can feel super rigid and inorganic!). Stephanie is flexible, professional, and incredibly talented! We are obsessed with the photos from our wedding and are so grateful she was a part of our day!

Wonderful person, amazing photos!!!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Stephanie. We loved her so much we hired her for our engagement, rehearsal, day of wedding, and after party photos! We met Stephanie in California for our engagement session and then she traveled all the way to South Carolina for our wedding weekend. So needless to say, her commitment to her clients has no bounds.
Our engagement photos in Yosemite made my photo dreams come true. And for our wedding day, it poured rain the entire day plus South Carolina humidity, and yet Stephanie still captured so many beautiful moments that we will cherish forever.
Not only are Stephanie's photos amazing, but her professionalism and organization is so awesome, she helped keep the days and schedule on track so we could get the best photos at the right times.
AND her turn around time with photos is impeccable (and super important)! I had friends who didn't get their wedding photos back for more than 5 months after their wedding- Stephanie not only gave us 'preview' photos a day after our wedding but then got us entire albums within a month.
Endless thank yous to Stephanie!!!

Our Forever Photographer

My husband and I have thus far worked with Stephanie Klotz for our engagement shoot, our (COVID-forced) elopement, and we will be working with her for our larger wedding celebration next spring, when things are hopefully better. We could not have asked for better experiences with her. In the process of inquiring about her services, she called us to introduce herself and to explain her approach, expectations, style, and philosophy. She was simultaneously warm and professional. Once we agreed to work together, she was prompt with all documents and responsive to all our questions.

For our engagement shoot, having never worked with a professional photographer before, we were nervous, but Stephanie had a clear set of goals and shots, as well as a natural way of "coaxing" them from us. As our wedding ceremony and reception approached, all planning was put on pause because of the emergence of COVID. Despite our delayed reactions in postponing our event, Stephanie was again responsive and flexible, and we were fortunately able to reschedule to our new date. Meanwhile, we had a small "elopement" at home with close family, which Stephanie was able to generously photograph. We are impressed with her promptness with which she produced her work, and thrilled with the variation of photos and the gorgeous way in which she was able to capture so many joyful moments.

In the age of COVID and so much collective anxiety, continuing to work with her has been anything but. Stephanie is confident in a way that evokes trust in her as an integral part of our milestone, as well as in her craft. It takes someone who realizes what it means to be human to be able to capture the complexity of emotions and relationships in photographs, and Stephanie’s focus on her clients in their humanness translates beautifully through her work. My husband and I can't recommend her enough, and you should absolutely consider her for your photographing needs. We are willing to promise, in writing, that she will deliver memories that will vividly and dynamically remain with you.

Wonderful Photographer!

Such an amazing photographer! Stephanie was so wonderful to work with, and was so patient with us when it came to posing for photos. She made us feel so comfortable and kept us laughing with her spontaneous posing suggestions. We had such a blast with her and would book her again for any other event! Her work is very professional and beautifully done. There was not a single photo we didn’t love. I can’t stress enough how grateful we are to have booked her and if you need a photographer then you should book her too! You won’t be disappointed!

Stephanie was the glue!

I would strongly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for beautiful engagement or wedding photos, and especially anyone who might be eloping. Stephanie is so flexible but mindful--she was really the one who kept me on task throughout the day and helped me stay on schedule. She is easygoing and friendly, so it feels like you have a friend in all the chaos, and her calm demeanor really helps. She's creative, thoughtful, and is a dream to work with. It can be hard finding someone to capture such personal moments--I was worried about feeling awkward--but Stephanie is amazing, supportive, and made my husband and I feel comfortable.

So happy I found her!

We originally only booked Stephanie for our engagement photos but were SO pleased with how they turned out we knew we had to have her for our wedding as well. She's a fun, calming presence that made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She has a way of getting real emotions without feeling invasive or insincere. She sent us a huge "first look" very quickly and we had our entire album not long after. We LOVE our photos and have dozens of favorites!

Amazing photos, affordable rates, just hire her team already!

I'm an LA-based video and media producer so I work with photographers and content creators every day and there is no one else I'd recommend for your wedding than Stephanie and her team. My (now) wife and I wanted to find a modern photographer who could capture a balance of our wedding's formal and candid moments with a unique eye and great service - and Stephanie exceeded our sky-high expectations. She was communicative throughout the process, knew when to step-in to set up a shot versus stepping back to get the larger context framed out, she had a quick turn-around with a very fair rate and was a joy to work with from start to finish. Stop reading this and start contacting her - you won't regret it!

Easy to work with, affordable, and beautiful photos

Stephanie was a dream to work with, she was flexible on starting an hour earlier than we'd talked about and she delivered on her promise of beautiful candids (we're not great at posing). If you want photos that truly capture the feel of your wedding, go for Stephanie, you'll get memories forever.

Stephanie was amazing. Responsive and helpful during our planning process. On time of the day of, she even stayed later than planned to catch shots of the speeches. Her style is classic and unique, Im so happy I chose her to capture my wedding day!

This review is so long overdue that it pains me...nevertheless, without a doubt; one of the BEST investment my husband and I made on our wedding was booking Stephanie as our photographer. From planning the on how we wanted our wedding pictures and post nuptial to be taken, to the actual day.

On the wedding day, every mishap you could imagine happened and everything was behind schedule but Stephanie was so patient with us and she helped us calmed down. She also worked well with our videographers that she only met on that day. She was proactive and efficient, and ensured no time was wasted in capturing our moments.

On our post-nuptial session, She really knew how to navigate through Joshua Tree National Park, and get a ton of great shots. My husband and I tend be a bit camera shy, and her calm and fun attitude helped put us at ease. She told us that " WE ARE JUST FRIENDS HANGING OUT, IT JUST HAPPENED THAT I HAVE A CAMERA". Added bonus, she knew exactly what locations we needed to get in and the timing of all that. Her knowledge, and making sure we were in the right spots at the right time, really took the stress off! Which meant more time to enjoy the moment!

Our pictures speaks how we were having fun and how genuine everything is. Her work was absolutely stunning and we received overwhelming compliments for the photos she had taken for us. Thank you for helping us immortalize these moments. I could never asked for a better photographer.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
