Amazing Photographer!
Stacie at Awake Photo Co is an amazing, professional, well rounded, sweet, and talented photographer. Anyone can snap a photo but not everyone has the eye to capture a moment in time the way she does. She truly is a master of her craft and knows how to capture the essence and feeling while keeping it natural and not overly posed. I’ve hired her for my wedding photos as well as product photos for my company and she’s provided beautiful high quality images to me for multiple uses in a timely matter every time! They’re all eye catching and living room wall worthy. She edits in a vibrant and elegant style that I love! 10/10 recommend! You won’t be disappointed. -

Stacie did an awesome job shooting our wedding. She was very organized throughout the planning process and made everything easy for us. Her work is unmatched. Have received so many compliments already. The photos are vibrant and all our different skin tones really show up beautifully. I am so happy with the decision to book her and am grateful she was willing to fly to Texas for this job. -

My fiance and I got our engagement photos taken by Stacie at sunset on Mt. Rainier a couple summers ago and it was one of the most fun days I've ever had. I feel terrible for not writing this review sooner, because honestly she is completely amazing, and exceeded every expectation I had.
Stacie actually went up the mountain a day BEFORE our shoot to scout out good locations (and a private place for us to change outfits), and she was so creative in choosing our poses and incorporating the beautiful scenery. She made it really fun and easy for us, as we'd never done a photoshoot. She also braided my hair at one point!
The photos completely blew me away. The pictures were not at all cheesy, boring, nor overly artistic. They were dynamic, colorful, and unique. And in every pic, we look like the two most beautiful and happy people on earth.
She also had a friend along who was doing some paintings, and later mailed us one of the little paintings her friend made. Needless to say this is now one of my favorite possessions.
I can hardly emphasize enough how above & beyond she went for us, and how comfortable she made us feel in the process. Stacie, you're amazing!! -

0% awkward posing, 100% amazing vibrant photos
If you're looking for amazing photos with beautiful vibrant colors, Stacie is your girl. If you're awkward in front of a camera and never know what to do with your hands, Stacie is your girl. If you want photos that look amazing but not overly posed, Stacie is your girl. if you want someone that goes the extra mile and bends her body in funny shapes to get "the perfect" shot, Stacie is your girl.
She has many talents but the greatest of them all is her ability to make you feel comfortable. I was really worried about posing prior to our shoot but she had easy commands (my personal favorite: "whisper in her ear in your best cookie monster voice") that elicits genuine laughs and smiles. You'll never feel awkward and your photos will look incredible.
10/10 recommend. She was so incredibly flexible with last minute rescheduling and location. Genuinely kind. She will be my family's photographer of choice going forward. Give her a try, you won't regret it. Worth every penny.
BONUS: she got our photos earlier than expected. Best unexpected email notification ever!! -

One of the biggest challenges we faced with finding a photographer was finding someone who was able to communicate with us vision, understand who we were as a couple and be patient with use because we were very uncomfortable in front of the camera. Stacie came recommended to us from a friend who was obsessed with her work! As soon as I had messaged her it just felt like she was a friend. Stacie worked on our engagement photos and with us on the day of our wedding. I had spent weeks going back and forth with Stacie on outfits and colors and options for locations. She has this amazing handbook on how to set up the shoot for success and i have not seen any photographer do as comprehensive of a job as she did! Stacie is thorough! She is the perfect balance of friend and professional. We were both gushing over the venue choice and shared the same excitement over the day. She feels genuine joy for you ! She is a gem and truly one of a kind. We spent the most time with her and her team on the day of the wedding to capture as much of the day as possible and I attribute a significant portion of the day going as well as it did because of her! She listened to my concerns especially with sensitive family dynamics. Everyone at the wedding LOVED her! And the images she delivered! I was in TEARS! not only are the absolutely beautiful but they captured the essence and the spirit of the day!
If you want an incredible talented, charismatic, brilliant creative mind AND friend, do yourself a favor and book Stacie ASAP! -

Rachel S. Sent on 08/29/2019Made our simply beautiful photoshoot come true
You don't find many photographers as unique and special as Stacie. She not only worked with our crazy schedule and last minute changes but also made our dream location come true. She had the perfect vision for our shoot and gave us just the right cues to capture us a couple in our element. She made us feel comfortable, playful, romantic and beautiful.
Stacie was even able to keep up with us riding electric bikes (when she was on a regular one) and match us pizza slice for pizza slice after the session. We truly couldn't have picked a better photographer to capture our love story.

Working with Stacie has been absolutely incredible! She is so kind, talented and truly a professional in what she does. She went above and beyond for my husband and I in so many ways through both our engagement and wedding photos. She talked us through every step of the process and was incredibly responsive and flexible through weather and COVID setbacks. Every photo received has been absolutely breathtaking! She knows how to capture a moment and make it really shine. I look forward to continuing to work with Stacie in the future, and will recommend her to everyone I know! -

Stacie was amazing! We had never had professional photos taken before but we gave her some ideas of what we were looking for and she went over and beyond our expectations! She was so helpful on our wedding day. She coached us on how to pose, where to look, gave us funny cues to help take the anxiety and awkwardness that naturally occurs on a wedding day! We kept our wedding really low key and on a tight budget, Stacie and her work was and is worth every penny!! -

Janae Sent on 06/05/2018Stacie made our dream engagement photoshoot on Mt. Rainier come true! We had a lot of fun taking photos and never once felt awkward or forced into a pose. Stacie is very playful in her guidance which made us feel comfortable being ourselves (I actually had tears from crying from laughter at one point). She went above and beyond to get the best shots! Also, we did the shoot on my birthday and Stacie surprised me with a beautiful bouquet as a gift and to make the photos extra special. I am very impressed with Stacie's thoughtfulness, excellent communication, and professionalism. I can not recommend Stacie highly enough!Awake Photo Co's reply:
Hi Janae,
Thank you so much for your kind review! I am so glad we were able to make your dream engagement shoot a reality! You two were just so much fun and so relaxing to be around. I'm excited for what Im sure will be a very beautiful wedding! -

From the first contact, working with Stacie has been a pleasure. She was very responsive to emails, informative about the process of booking and day-of information, and made planning the wedding day timeline a breeze. We did a video chat maybe a month or so before the wedding day which was super laid back and let us get to virtually meet each other so it wasn't just "nice to meet you" before walking up the aisle, when you're already thinking about so many other things. She and the assistant photographer, Daven, were both so attentive and organized, and they were all over the place taking candid shots of the reception as well as the posed portraits my fiance and I wanted. And then, oh my god - it sounds cheesy, but I never expected my wedding photos to look so beautiful. The sneak-previews we've gotten back perfectly encapsulate the vibe we were going for and are seriously gorgeous. I am excited to see the rest, and I definitely recommend Stacie for weddings. Her skill definitely shows through her photography. -

Stacie was wonderful and fun to work with for our March wedding. She came with us to walk through our location beforehand to find good spots to shoot. She balanced our photos out well with elegant/fancy shots and goofy/candid shots. Overall she was so kind and professional, we were lucky to have her. -

Melinda Sent on 03/26/2018Stacie Struble is one of the most incredible photographers in the PNW. I have never loved getting my photo taken so I was nervous about the idea of taking engagement photos. Stacie was so supportive throughout the process and even helped me with outfit ideas. The day of the shoot was amazing! She made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable so it was definitely a session filled with joy, laughter, and love. Stacie was able to bring out the best in my fiancé and I’s personalities and compatibility in our photos. Stacie not only has an artistic eye for what looks good in a photo (subject placement, lighting, visualization, etc.) but she also has a genuine love for the people she photographs and a gift of capturing their authentic selves. I would recommend her to everyone in a heartbeat and have even hired her for our wedding!!

Nicholas Sent on 03/29/2018Stacie's unbelievably talented. We couldn't be more satisfied with the quality of these amazing photos. I find myself sharing the photos with my friends and getting wonderful responses to how amazing the shots are. My fiancé and I are so overjoyed with the quality of her photos and how we looked in them, we couldn't go with anyone else for our wedding photos. Stacie will make you look good and it will be a ton of fun while she's helping you! Thanks again Stacie, you're the best!

Kariann Sent on 12/12/2018An Amazing Experience!
Stacie made the entire wedding photography experience stress free from start to end! She was quick to respond to emails and flexible when I wanted to add a second photographer and an additional hour closer to the wedding day! I was nervous about taking photos with a larger wedding party, but she knew how to get people where they needed to go and even made us all look amazing!! She was professional and thorough (took all of the photos I wanted and more!) throughout the entire day! I highly recommend Stacie for any event you may be planning!Awake Photo Co's reply:
Thank you so much Kariann! I had such a great time at your wedding! I hope you two are enjoying the first year together! :) -
Katelyn Sent on 06/05/2018I hired Stacie to take photos for our wedding and she was a dream! Hands down best photographer ever!! From the moment you meet Stacie you can clearly tell she is a professional, she is quick to respond, friendly, funny and once you meet her it is obvious that she loves taking photos. Her positive energy radiates and spreads to everyone around her, and she did a great job instructing my guests how to pose while also keeping everyone at ease. She is lighthearted, quick with a smile, and makes even the awkward process of posing for photos seem natural to all involved. She also made sure to take many candid shots to capture all the real emotions even when given a checklist of group shots to follow! You really can't go wrong hiring Stacie. She does amazing work and I am truly grateful to have had the experience of working with such a wonderful and thoughtful photographer!
Awake Photo Co's reply:
Katelyn! Thanks so much for the lovely review! I couldn't have been happier with the day, or how the photos turned out! I can't wait to deliver them to you very soon. -

Family Photo Shoot in Estes Park, CO
We had an amazing experience working with Stacie in Estes Park, CO. To start, the photos that she took were absolutely amazing. We truly couldn't ask for better pictures and we will cherish these forever.
Stacie was extremely personable, professional, and easy going. We met her for the first time about 5 minutes before taking our pictures and hit it off right away. We genuinely had a great time during our photo shoot and it shows in our pictures. She was so down to earth, easy to communicate with, and is very talented.
I would highly recommend Stacie and if she ever visits Colorado again, I will be giving her a call! -
