Amazing Photos - tons of options!

Stephanie really does create the most amazing and magical photos! What I love most is that she ensures there are a TON to choose from - different poses, with different family members and in different lighting. No filters needed, let me tell you!

She was also willing to travel and was flexible as we were dealing with Covid madness and we are forever grateful!

Wedding Saver

Stephanie was the saving grace for my makeshift Covid backyard wedding. My husband and couldn't hold the event that we planned, but Stephanie made that day memorable for us.

She was responsive and easy to work with! Her and her assistant/ second camera were so sweet and kind; we almost lost our first dance photos if it weren't for them (the problem with a last minute makeshiftwedding 😅).

The photos came out incredible, and despite the trauma involved with a wedding during Covid, I can look back and still smile because of her and her work.
