Hey there!

I’m Stephanie - married to my best friend and mom to three little loves that keep me on my toes. Based in the Portland, Oregon area, I am constantly in awe of the beautiful Oregon landscape and feel so blessed to live here. I love Sunday morning church with my family, pilates, movie nights on the couch with my babies (they will always be babies to me), exploring the outdoors with my family & a great bottle of Oregon Pinot Noir (I live in wine country, what can I say?!). I love chasing the light and searching out new photo shoot locations, usually with my kids tagging along as my inspiration.

I became a photographer so I could tell a story. Your story.

 About the photographer

I see you, mama. You are always the one taking the photos, and I know you long to be in those photos. You want to have those moments with your littles and significant other captured and preserved for years to come. I know you want to remember each and every stage of life with the ones you love.

Kids change so fast and before you know it they are grown. This is why I became a photographer, because I too am a mom and I feel the same way you do.

“Would definitely recommend!! Stephanie has a great eye and captured so many sweet moments during our family photo session. She really listened to what I was after and nailed it!! Her editing and attention to detail left me with so many photos I will forever cherish”

One day, all your children will have left is pictures of you. Make sure you are in as many pictures as you possibly can be. It doesn’t matter what your hair looks like, how your makeup is done, or what your body looks like. They won’t care about any of that. They will just want to see YOU. Their mom, their comfort, their everything.
