Stephanie's work product, turnaround time, and production value is phenomenal
"Let's say the important part up front - Stephanie's work product, turnaround time, and production value is phenomenal. She's personable, honest, warm, and excellent with her clients and subject matters.She makes sure to work with the client to identify what you want, what you expect, and what she offers and then you decide on the relationship from there. That's exactly what you should want - she's not running a fast food restaurant where you look at a menu and say "I want this." The end-product is exactly what you want.I'd recommend Stephanie in a heartbeat."

how it works
The Process
Pre-Consultation
Getting to know each other is a huge part of what makes a great session. It puts everyone at ease and sets us up for success! We will go over your goals for your session, wardrobe and location ideas to help design the perfect session for you. It’s also a great time for you to get all of your questions answered.
01
Styling Consultation
Once you're booked, we'll set up a styling consultation (in-studio or virtual). Choose from flattering options in your own closet or from my client wardrobe for an effortless, stress-free experience. Then, I'll help coordinate looks for your family to ensure a beautiful and cohesive gallery.
02
Hair & Makeup Services
Getting your hair and makeup done will make you feel beautiful and more confident on your session day. I will make the scheduling arrangements for you, so you can enjoy being pampered on the day of your session!
03
The Session
All of the planning is done, and it’s time for a joy-filled and relaxed session with me! The time is yours to love on your family, snuggle up, play, and laugh…but most of all, be yourselves!
04
The Big Reveal
Approximately 1-2 weeks after your session, join me in-studio or on Zoom for your gallery reveal. You’ll enjoy seeing your gorgeous family photos for the first time, and I'll assist with artwork design and answer any questions you may have.
05
Delivery
Your custom portrait heirlooms are ready for you! Approximately 2-4 weeks after your gallery reveal appointment, I will arrange pick up or delivery for you.

Her talent is obvious...She captures our hearts and souls!
"I started with Stephanie more than 2 years ago for my first pregnancy shoot. I knew from that day she was the perfect photographer for our growing family. She put us all at ease and came equipped with props, gowns and a sense of calmness. Her talent is obvious when you see the pictures. She captures our hearts and souls!"
