    A Dream Come True

    Stacey blew us away with her eye, image quality, timing and presence... we could go on. We did an engagement photo shoot and wedding package with her, and will not use another photographer unless somehow forced to. Even our guests loved Stacey and continued talking about her weeks after our wedding - not to mention, they plan to frame her photos of them! If we could leave 6 stars we would!

    Stacey is so hands on and down-to-earth she makes working with her seem like you're working with a long lost friend. She captures amazing photos and goes above and beyond in customer service. I'd recommend her to everyone and will be using her again!

    Thanks Yasmine! It has been so great to work with you as well!

    Stacey was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was 100% committed to making the process as easy as possible, and was genuinely attentive to our needs and wants. I am not great at having my picture taken, and as a bride my anxiety was already through the roof. Stacey presented herself as a friend and made the whole process completely seamless and easy. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone who asked.

    Stacey was WONDERFUL!! She is fast on her feet, has an amazing eye, and is able to get great shots from everyone!! She has an almost intuitive sense of how she can be helpful, and a fantastic ability to herd cats; she got all of our family/party posed pictures done in under half an hour, and was shooting all night! We just got the first preview pictures yesterday (a little over three weeks), and MY GOD THEY LOOK AMAZING!! We couldn't be happier with the work she did!!

    Stacey did an outstanding job photographing our daughters wedding! We really wanted a photographer that approached photography as art, and we are not disappointed! She captured the bride and groom and the entire event without it feeling staged. Her attention to detail with lighting and background added to exceptional shots. We now have over 1000 pictures to choose from with very few we want to eliminate! I would hire her again with out a second thought. Both Stacey and her assistant were professional, on time and blended well into the group. They added to the event and we could not be more pleased with the final results!

    My husband and I used stacey for both our engagement photos and for our wedding. She was a joy to work with and her photography is incredible. I was looking for a photographer who would use the world around me to capture the perfect shots and that was exactly what she did. I have had numerous comliments on my wedding's photography. Stacey was a joy to work with her and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer.

    Stacey Vaeth Photography was a dream come true of a vendor for our wedding. She was affordable (compared to other local photographers), tailored a package to our needs, spent time getting to know us to provide customized service, and handled our massive families with ease and professionalism. She was great at finding the perfect posed and natural shots, and managed to capture moments we didn't even realize were happening at our wedding. She even delivered her final product early!

    She is simply amazing and we would not hesitate to recommend her. She has such as keen eye for photography and her attention to detail is second to none.

    You will not be disappointed selecting her as your vendor of choice.

    Stacey is the consumate professional. She was truly a pleasure to work with, and made our wedding run as smoothly as possible. She has a great presence about her, making sure that our requests were executed. She was especially impressive with the kids. My wife and I made it a priority to work with the best photographer out there, and Stacey is second to none.

    Stacey is the best! Not only is she a great person, but she is truly a professional artist. Her photos are so amazing and vibrant. Stacey was so flexible with my ideas, and even tolerated some extra driving because of specific shots I wanted. She even made an extra trip for a walk-through with me at my venue before my wedding day. Stacey made me feel so comfortable the day of my wedding, and I felt that I just had another friend at my wedding. I am on cloud nine about the sneak preview photos I got from her. I am so excited that I will have fantastic photos to look at for the rest of my life. Many thanks to Stacey and her wonderful assistant, Christine.

    Stacey was amazing to work with! She completely understood what we wanted out of our photos and delivered on it. She also was fantastic to be around on the wedding day. As a bride, you actually end up spending a lot of your time with the photographer, so you want to choose someone who puts you at ease. Stacey does a great job of this. I would recommend her to anyone!

    Working with Stacey Vaeth was one of the best experiences my fiance and I have had with any of the vendors we've had the pleasure to work with. She was fun and made all the photo shoots we've done with her, comfortable. She photographed the proposal and we did an engagement session with her so far. We booked her for our wedding as well. We were more than pleased with all the photos Stacey shot. She has a great personality that makes you feel at ease and open up. You will be more than pleased with her style of photography. She keeps you active so you don't get stuck in the same pose for very long and you don't feel staged. She tries to get to know you and is open to suggestions in regard to what theme you want your photos to have. You will love her work!

    Working with Stacey was awesome. She was exceedingly professional, but down-to-earth. Making her very easy to work with.

    Our wedding was held at a non-traditional venue (we rented out a restaurant). Stacey's input was critical in helping make the venue work for a wedding. Other vendors we interviewed seemed unsure/intimidated by our venue, but Stacey (and all the vendors we ultimately worked with) jumped right in, completely undaunted (check out her website and you'll see that a restaurant is far from the most "non-traditional" venues she's photographed).

    We also wanted to take pictures around DC before our wedding. Stacey was completely up for the challenge and scouted locations ahead of time. The timing went off without a hitch. Stacey got some amazing shots during the ceremony and reception, but I don't remember seeing her, which speaks to her ability to get the photos without being intrusive.

    The photos we've seen so far are absolutely lovely. Neither me nor my family had much idea what we were paying for (we have some atrocious family portraits hanging on our walls), but all of us are absolutely thrilled with the way this day was captured. I hope to work with Stacey in the future.

    Hiring Stacey was the absolute, #1 best decision that I made for my wedding and engagement pictures. She is a dream to work with, just lovely to be around and she has a way of making everyone in the pictures feel comfortable - and this SHOWS in the final products. I love her eye for color and lighting and felt from the moment I spoke to her on the phone like she knew me and would represent me and my now husband well. Our engagement pictures are some of the most beautiful pictures ever taken of either of us and I am already impressed with the early proofs from our wedding. Put it this way - when our wedding was cancelled in November a week before the date because of Hurricane Sandy, I refused to commit to a new date until I knew Stacey would be available because in my head, she was the one I knew I wanted capturing the memories.

    On the actual day, she was amazing - herding our large bridal party and the families through the pictures with complete calmness and ease. Her personality kept smiles on everyones' faces - even through the hour long marathon that were our formal shots.

    My family and bridal party were all so, so happy with her and I had numerous people come up to me to tell me how happy they were that I brought her from DC to NY (our wedding location). I not only have already recommended her to other brides, but I have sent her information to my friends with kids. On a day when emotions are running high, Stacey was a calm breeze and I think that the beauty of the pictures comes from her talent at taking the pictures and really making the people she is working with feel happy! Thank you Stacey!

    Stacey is an amazing photographer! We used her for our engagement photos, which turned out so beautifully. The most surprising thing about our session? We actually had FUN taking these photos! We can't wait to use Stacey as our wedding photographer in June.

    A true professional. We had a great experience. Stacey knew what shots to take and took what we had mentioned into account, then delivered. She was on time and thankfully didn't worry about her shot when all our friends pulled out their phones for their money shots. Photographers can be expensive but Stacey was very in line with and you have to remember you pay for what you get. The day of our wedding we had a storm move thru and after the the storm the sky was so amazing. Stacey quickly grabbed us and knew what shots to take, they were absolutely amazing. We have already recommend her to our friends and family.

    Stacey was AMAZING. She was able to keep things moving on such a special day while still finding time to capture special moments. When my husband and I reviewed the pictures we were completely overwhelmed - there were so many favorites! We were looking for one or two "iconic" pictures for the day, but we ended up with shot after shot of pure joy. Stacey has a way of finding not only specific moments in time that are special, but the personality of each subject really came through. Her work is honest, beautiful, and sincere. Just like her.

    Stacey was fantastic - she was able to capture all the highlights beautifully. There are so many pictures she took that we are stunned that she got - we don't know how she got into position, but she did without interrupting or interfering. We had a small venue, which makes that even more impressive. Additionally, there were some unique elements to our wedding that required effort on her part around to be involved in and she was willing and enthusiastic. I definitely recommend using her for your events and portraits.

    Stacey Vaeth is amazing. I decided to use Stacey after seeing how beautifully she captured my sister's wedding in Washington, D.C. She was so professional but very easy to work with. You can tell her creative mind is working the whole time, but you really don't get a feel for her true genius until you see the pictures.

    She is also very flexible, as I live in New York and my wedding was in NY. She did such a great job, and my bridal party and family love working with her.

    I can't wait for other family members to get married, have children, and/or have another special occasion just so that she can be our photographer again.
