Stephanie is a wonderful photographer; her work is beautiful and speaks for itself. She makes photoshoots easy and has great vision and attention to detail. I've done multiple shoots with her and would love to do more!

My husband and I took engagement photos with Stephanie. We are both camera-shy, but she was very professional and made us so comfortable during the session that we got some very great shots! Stephanie really brought out our individual personalities in the photos, and her prices are so reasonable. I would recommend her to everyone I know!

I was looking for someone who could take pictures at my proposal and found Stephanie through a friend that recommended her. I messaged her three weeks prior to the actual proposal and it was no problem getting in touch with her and scheduling a meeting in advance to talk through the details. We met at the actual location and she had many ideas herself, but was also open towrds my own ideas and encouraged me to research online if there are certain kinds of pictures I want. In general her flexibility in the style of pictures was very delightful and she would recreate the pictures and ideas I had as close as possible in the situation. This way we were able to take some beautiful pictures with lights! It seems like the creative process with her clients really mattered to her and she had many great ideas herself but listened to every one of our wishes as well. She was ten minutes earlier than she said she would onsite which was awesome and was able to blend in with the background as I proposed to my fiancée, so we still were able to have a 1 on 1 moment without distractions. As soon as we were ready for the photo shoot she was there and we got some great pictures done. Stephanie is driven to take the best pictures possible rather than just doing her time, so even though originally we agreed on 30 minutes we ended up doing one hour due to the many ideas we had. After the shoot she send us three pictures within four hours so we could show them to our friends and family already and delivered all the other pictures within two weeks after the shoot. The whole process was very easy with her and she was available to questions via text prior to and after the event. She was flexible towards our needs time and pricing wise. She did an amazing job for me and my fiancée!

Stephanie was AMAZING! She took our engagement photos at Cedar Ridge Preserve. My fiancé and I were a little nervous going into the photo shoot because we are kind of goofy and awkward, but Stephanie was super sweet and made us feel super comfortable and made it a lot of fun! Stephanie listened to my opinion of what I was looking for and followed through with them perfectly. She also had some awesome ideas for different photo shots that I would have never thought of and they didn't feel awkward and looked amazing. We also brought our 2 dogs for the photoshoot and Stephanie was extremely prepared to work with them, she even brought a squeaky toy to help them pay attention. I definitely recommend Stephanie for any type of photography you might be looking for!

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    With any new customer, I would want to meet in person or talk over the phone about what the client is looking for through the photos. I would then schedule the photoshoot with the client, or check my availability for their specific event. The next part of the process is signing the contract and capturing the photos! Only step after this is to edit and send the photos to you through Pass Gallery.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Photography classes throughout high school and college
