Its your girl Stephanie

 

My heart is so full that you are here, looking into hiring some girl from the Suffolk area of Virgnia. Quick backstory on me. I am orginially from California but decided to move to Virginia for college (also for a boy, lol sorry mom).

I fell in love with photography around my Junior year of high school. It was an on and off passion of mine, didn’t really think it would take off so I quit it for a while. My freshman year of college, I decided to pick back up the camera and go for it. I was in my own way and I finally realized it. Now I can create some magic for you and OH, the excitement is too real.

That’s just the beginning, click away to find out more. BUT I can’t wait to hear about you and what your story is. Lets get this party started.

Tim and Debbie. Got a quick message one night for an engagement session which was super last minute because your girl had a flight out to California in three days but we made it happen! Off to Virginia Beach we went and found this adorable little spot tucked away in a random neighborhood and I’d say it definately did the trick.

Complete DREAMBOATS. These two are good cute to be true, I mean seriously look at them! A day out in the dunes with these two was an absolute dream like c’mon it can’t get that much better than this. So many wonderful souls worked together to make this magic a reality and I am thrilled with the outcome.

This evening at Jockey’s Ridge State Park in North Carolina was so worth every minute of the drive. Ty and Olivia are such sweet people and a even sweeter pair. Running around the dunes in North Carolina was nothing short of perfect and I would like to re live this day 10 times over. All the Virginia vendors that helped put this day together were so amazing and all of this magic was created.

WOW. WOWOWOOW JUST WOW.

Those are the words that are going to go through your head when you start getting your pictures taken by Stephanie. She's quick to get your shots so you're not stuck in the same pose forever, she's efficient with letting you move but still being able to get her shots, and is such fun to be around, you'll want to still hang out with her after your shoot!

DANG. DAAAAAANG! D.A.N.G.

Those are the words that are going to go through your head when you get your pictures back because 1. You were looking fine that day, and 2. STEPHANIE ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT WITH YOUR PHOTOS! No, it's not an exaggeration - it's the truth. And just so you know how unbiased I am - I was found on instagram through a hashtag and asked to come in to shoot with a couple photographers who I have never met, heard of, or even knew existed. I know, kinda sketch. BUT LOOK AT THE BEAUTY THAT CAME OUT OF THIS *semi* SKETCHY SITUATION.

DOOOOOOO IT. BOOK THE SHOOT.

Those are the words coming from me shouting through this screen because I want you to know how amazing Stephanie and her photography is. So just ask her to be your photographer already! And y'all go have a fun time and know I'm jealous cause I wish she could just photojournal my life!

We had so much fun, and when Stephanie took our pictures as well as seeing the finished product was just another reminder to us of how much we love being together. Thank you so much!!

Where do I begin?! Stephanie was SO SO SO genuine and down to earth. She’s caring and sweet and made Jake and I feel like we were in a romance movie or a dreamy love novel! She was ecstatic about our love for each other and extremely kind hearted. The photos were jaw dropping, she went above and beyond! J and I loved every second of our session and would drive 8 hours round trip to hang out with her any day!

I had the incredible opportunity to have Stephanie take pictures of me and my love, Trevor. She captured our story perfectly, and gifted us photographs that we will cherish for ever. These photos will be things we can look back on years from now and show our children and remember our life together as wee teens. Stephanie made our shoot fun, candid, and exciting by making it easy for us to be intimate and in love in front of the camera. She is nothing short of a sweetheart, and establishes more than just a photographer/client relationship. You will walk away from your shoot with a friendship to last a lifetime, and memories that will never be replaced. Trevor and I are so thankful to Stephanie for capturing our love story. She is an incredible human and has so much promise in her future photography endeavors. Book your sessions folks! You won’t regret it!

Here’s how my shoot with Stephanie went! I had never met her before even though we follow each other on social Media from her dating my cousins cousin, but you would never have been able to tell that! She makes you feel comfortable and completely at home! She is a fun, sweet, funny, exciting lively person that I have the treasure of knowing and calling a friend!

And on top of everything about the energy she provides for the Shoot her pictures are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!!! I can’t thank you enough for capturing the moments of love and pure happiness in the pictures!
