bio:

stephanie sees the world for all its beauty and humor and strives to make the world a little more pretty, fun, & inviting. she is attracted to the bright side and the colorful, and over the years has built a great base of clients who hire her because she has a knack for making people she photographs feel at ease.

she began shooting in high school as a way to record a life that was ephemeral and needed more connection after having gone to 5 elementary schools and 4 high schools. moving a lot while growing up made her both a great observer and hyper aware of behavior, two traits that make for an amazing photographer.

stephanie is always devising ways to see how animated and athletic her subjects can be in order to get shots that are out of the ordinary.

she loves photographing all walks of life, including pets but she is especially inspired by kids who have a magical, funny and refreshing way of seeing the world.

in an ideal world stephanie would photograph everyone as if they were still their 6 or 7 year old self.
