Stephanie was very generous with her time and made sure that we got a great variety of photos and helped bring our vision of an engagement shoot to life!

Stephanie has been so amazing to work with from the very first email! She is fast at replying and worked with us in every part of the decision-making process from location choices to outfit ideas! Since this year has been so crazy, we had a last minute couples turned engagement photoshoot and we LOVE our photos.

During this crazy time, Stephanie made sure we were comfortable and safe during our photo session, wore a mask, and also were able to keep us distant to others when in public places (ie Balboa park). She did an amazing job at getting the right angles and lighting. She was able to make both of us laugh, feel relaxed, and even took the time to fix hair flyaways when it gets too windy. If you want someone that is super detailed, professional, flexible, loves to capture candid, natural smiles, and overall fantastic to work with - she is your girl! From all the laughter to becoming fast friends, I would recommend Stephanie to anyone I know. Her cost is very affordable and very worth the investment for a snapshot of your best memories. We both still can't get over how beautiful the pictures are and how happy we were to work with Stephanie!

Stephanie was our photographer in August 2023 at Birch and she was amazing in so many ways. She was professional, efficient, flexible, and patient amongst many other things. We booked her 9 months before the wedding and couldn't decide what kind of package we wanted so we actually didn't even decide until about a month before the wedding (like I said, she is VERY patient). She offered a lot of different options for packages for us and we ended up going with a custom package that she was kind enough to put together for us. Working with her was such a breeze leading up to the event + the day-of the event + the following weeks after :)

On the day-of the event, she showed up early and was completely prepared for all the curve balls ahead of us. The hotel we booked ended up being way dimmer than expected but she totally ran with it and got creative to ensure we got some wonderfully lit getting ready shots. She knew we were pretty short on time for the wedding party photos, so she found some great options nearby at a Eucalyptus Grove and over the water as well. The pictures turned out to be absolutely gorgeous and I am SO happy we went with her. She was incredibly patient while we wrangled up family members for photos...even when we had to try wrangling up my 90-person family photo. She handled everything like a complete champ and did not sweat anything. We even ended up having a medical emergency that pushed things back so there wasn't enough time for friend photos that we wanted but she was so kind and offered to stay to get the photos we wanted before she left. She ended up staying an extra hour and was so understanding. We are extremely grateful for her.

It usually takes photographers a few months to provide photos because it takes so much time to edit but she sent us some of our favorites within a week of the wedding and we were so surprised. We love her style and are so happy with the sneak peek she sent us.

She's so talented and easy to work with. We got along so well from the get-go. You won't regret choosing her as your photographer.
