  • Welcome to my Blog!

    Why?  Why do I do it?  It's my passion....my calling.  

    You should know this about me...people describe me as intense...passionate...focused.  And they’re right.  I am.

    Things in my life that I’m passionate about?

    Red Zinfandels and Dark Chocolate...love them both, and they’re even better together!

    My husband....my biggest supporter and fan...he makes my heart sing...how did I get so lucky?

    My kids...they’re each so amazing & talented...yep, a total blessing.

    My Camera...I love being behind the lens...capturing beautiful moments as they happen...creating beautiful memories for my clients, family, and friends.

    My clients...I love my clients.  I think this is what I’m even more passionate about.  I love the relationship I build with each one.  Each relationship feels like a little present of happiness.  I love getting to know my clients...learning their expressions, and then capturing those expressions with my camera...those tiny captured moments that make me so passionate about my photography.  It’s a magical moment. The experience of sharing that moment, that joy with my clients is an awesome feeling.  Sharing the laughter, the memories of the day, and a few tears of joy, are what it’s all about for me.  

    Passionate Photography...


     

Troup Family Photo Session in New Orleans

I was thrilled when Jodee asked me to fly to New Orleans to photograph her family.   City Park was the perfect setting for the start of our session.  Ava loved playing with her bubbles and checking out the flowers.  As the afternoon wore on, we headed downtown to grab a bite and check out the local scenery.  THe next morning before I left town, Jodee had her very own portrait session…she looked totally glam!  Can’t wait to go back to visit again.

Yolanda & Jon get Married!

Yolanda and Jon had a beautiful romantic wedding ceremony and reception cruising around the Ft. Lauderdale intercoastal aboard the Catalina.  The weather initially called for rain, and the sky started out cloudy that morning.  With some strong winds and a little luck, the clouds blew away and the day was brilliantly sunny…a perfect match for the personalities of these two very special people.  Take notice of the cell phone in one of the ceremony photos.  Due to travel logistics, Jon’s parents couldn’t make the trip over from England…instead, they shared in the ceremony via cell phone! Both the ceremony and reception were full of laughter and tears.  Yolanda and Jon make such a wonderful couple…I was thrilled to share in their special day!  Enjoy their sneak peek photos!

Love the cell phone shot and the kiss by the row of white flowers. Totally awesome!!!!

Jessalyn & Robert’s Wedding

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to spend a few hours photographing the wedding of  some very special reservists right before their deployment.  Jessalyn and Robert had a beautiful service at St. Peter’s Methodist Church in Wellington, FL.  They made such a cute couple!   The Binks Forest Golf Club made the perfect site for their reception.  Let’s all keep them in our thoughts and prayers as they start their year long deployment in Afghanistan.

Cathy - April 24, 2010 - 11:21 AM

These are lovely! What a beautiful dress the bride was wearing. Congrats to the newlyweds.

Melissa - April 22, 2010 - 9:56 AM

Thanks so much, Stephanie. The pics are great. :) Beautiful!
Young Love!

They came out beautiful.

Johana & Vince’s Wedding

I loved photographing Johana and Vince’s wedding.  As firefighters and part of the 9/11 responders crew, they had an amazing wedding, and the reception was well attended by many fellow firefighters and 9/11 responders.  It was wonderful to share in the celebration of their wedding with such an amazing bunch of people.  Johana made a beautiful blushing bride, and Vince was quite the handsome groom.  I’m so happy to share this sneak peek of their wedding with everyone!

Cathy Deschamps - April 13, 2010 - 1:35 PM

Gorgeous work Steph. What a lovely couple!

Nicole & Neil!

It’s been such a pleasure getting to know Nicole and Neil throughout their engagement.  We loved the backdrop for their wedding…the Palm Beach Zoo!  Nicole literally took Neil’s breath away when he saw her during their “First Look” photos…I actually heard it!  They both looked the perfect dream of romance, and you could feel the romance and love in the air…what a beautiful couple!  I was able to work with Michael LaFrance of LaFrance Films…he was awesome! Enjoy this sneak peek of their evening at the zoo.FLY_8617STF_8989bSTF_8823FLY_8715DSC_1598FLY_8696STF_8807STF_9000STF_8971daSTF_8880STF_8934
