“Photograph the world as it is. Nothing’s more interesting than reality.”
“Steph's photography is masterful, classic and timeless. She made us feel so comfortable and natural. Thank you Steph!!”
“Steph is an incredibly talented photographer as well as a wonderful person and was amazing to work with. She has a way of being kind, friendly, and fun while being extremely professional at the same time. My husband and I were thrilled with the photos she took on our wedding day and would highly recommend Steph to anyone looking for a photographer!”
“Steph is a dream to work with! She shot our engagement photos, our wedding photos and photos for my husbands album release and she never fails to blow us away with the final result. Steph is the exact kind of calming presence you want on a day like your wedding. Thank you Steph!”
“Steph is the best. I have seen her working in a number of different wedding shoots, and I have consistently been impressed with the level of responsibility and reliability she effortlessly has. She has the valuable ability to match the tone/mood/direction of what the wedding and party are working towards creating, and the impact that she makes with her warmth of character and cheerful disposition should not be underestimated. I have never seen her be "in the way" or taking attention, despite her ability to step in and lead events if needed, and I have only been delighted when I took the chance to interact more with her. When I did my own small shoot with Steph, she was knowledgeable and kind, bringing her own ideas that fit within my vision of the project. Most importantly, she happily made me feel cheerful and comfortable, which was no small feat - it would have been a disaster with anyone else. Hire her for your wedding!”
“Absolutely 10/10 would recommend Steph as a photographer. Not only does she take amazing photographs but she's so so incredible with everyone. She pays attention to the little details and she so fun and outgoing to work with. All our guests at our wedding just RAVED afterwards about how amazing she was to have around. During the quieter moments of our wedding she did nothing but hang out with the kids, photograph fun photos of them and showed them how to use her camera. Overall great person!”
“Steph was a joy to work with and delivered the most outstanding photo shoot of my young career so far! I'll be calling Steph every time.”
“Working with Steph was beyond amazing. It was the first time my partner and I had a photo-shoot. She made us feel at ease the whole time - we even forgot she was there a few times! All the pictures were beautiful. Thank you, Steph, you're one heck of a photographer!”
“Steph is an amazing photographer. She did our wedding photos. She made us comfortable in front of the camera then had all the photos to us within the time we agreed on. And they were edited to perfection! I wish she was around to capture all those special life moments!”
“We hired Stephanie to photograph our wedding and both of us were stunned by the quality of her photos. She has a good instinct for capturing candid shots as well as making us feel relaxed during our photoshoot. We also love the timeless look of the shots she took. Aside from that she also managed to deliver a next day collection of finished photos, (and it wasn’t just a few). And as a wedding videographer myself, I know how long it can take to deliver a product, so I couldn’t wrap my head around how she managed to cull and process them so quick. It was a very pleasant surprise to be able to see them so soon after our wedding.
With no hesitation we would recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.”
