I cannot even begin to describe how incredible of a job Stacie did for our engagement & wedding photos! Not only is she extremely talented and professional when it comes to photography, she is also an incredible person inside and out. My husband and I are somewhat shy when it comes to having our pictures taken but Stacie made us feel comfortable and confident. Your wedding photos are something you’ll cherish forever, so it was important to me and my husband that we prioritized a good photographer and Stacie far exceeded that expectation. We have so many amazing photos of not only just ourselves but everyone at our wedding which is special to us. We highly recommend Stacie with Vitae Weddings!!
David and I were so lucky to get to work with Stacie McChesney as our wedding photographer. She is PHENOMENAL - incredibly talented, kind, and fun to work with. Neither of us is a particularly rabid planner or knew exactly what we wanted in our photographs. I had looked and looked for a photographer portfolio to catch my eye -- and Stacie's did just that. Her photographs are beautiful, artistic, and capture emotion with simplicity and authenticity that we really appreciated. We never felt awkward or 'forced'. Everything felt natural and true to ourselves. She was somehow everywhere at once, but so unintrusive. We adore our preview photos, and are so excited to see the rest of the photos. Stacie is also just a really kind, normal person - we met with her by zoom since we do not live locally right now, and immediately knew she'd be a joy to work with. Thanks so much, Stacie! You were such a special part of our wedding.
Oh my gosh, we have no words. Stacie McChesney (Vitae Weddings) was the perfect photographer for our special day and we are overjoyed with our experience. Do yourselves a favor and book her immediately.
From the moment Stacie stepped in the room, she put both of us at ease. Her energy immediately put us in a relaxed mindset, and that allowed us to just be together, have fun, and be present with each other and our loved ones. She had a clear plan of what/where to shoot but also reacted whenever inspiration unexpectedly struck. Stacie was equal parts guide, cheerleader, and secret agent. We're so grateful to have had our dedicated time for portraits with her. She even snuck us away at one point to get golden hour sunset pictures! The extra care she took with us was outstanding. During the reception, she was unobtrusive while capturing amazing moments. Not only was she amazing to us, but also our guests.
An unexpected surprise was she gave us a fully edited sneak peek within two days of the event! The small sample alone is incredible. Her style is unlike any other wedding photographs we've seen--it's like they could be in a magazine editorial! We cannot wait to see the rest of the images she captured.
Stacie was fantastic to work with leading up to, during, and after the big event. We're thrilled that she was our wedding photographer.
Any questions?
Stacie was amazing! My main hope out of our engagement pictures was to get at least one epic (and romantic) photo of us to have as beautiful wall art in our home, and “holy cow” did she deliver!! I can’t even pick a favorite, it was an album full of stunning moments that I’m so excited to share with our families. She has such a calming presence that made us feel comfortable and confident in front of a camera. The entire experience with Stacie was an absolute dream for us!
Stacie was genuinely invested in capturing the highest-quality photos of our ceremony. What we loved most about our time with Stacie was the attention to detail and the ability to capture the perfect blend of posed and candid photos. We enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend Vitae Weddings for any event.
Photos are my love language and as photo editor IRL, having a great wedding photographer capture my day was incredibly important to me! Everything about Stacie at Vitae Weddings, from the initial phone call to any email communications, to delivery of photos was extraordinary and worry-free!
She not only has this calming energy, but she replied promptly, was punctual the day of and worked well with the videographer! She reached out to the venues before the wedding to scout locations, so I never had to worry on the day of. She was dressed low-key and professional. Her contract is concise and easy to read. She had a vendor meal which she ate quickly, and she blended right in!
I provided an extensive shot list of family portraits I wanted to accomplish, and she was incredibly sensitive to all tricky family dynamics. My mother thanked me several times afterwards. Stacie was everywhere and still invisible when it mattered! She had a great smile and demeanor and several guests commented how wonderful she was! But that is nothing compared to the breath-taking photography she captured!
Overall, I received about 1K final, processed high-res files (on time within her 8-week turnaround) with about 40 sneak peek of photos two days following our wedding. It was enough to hold me over (for social media and texting) until I received the remaining photos! My goodness. She is an artist! My visceral reaction to seeing my gallery (which by the way is marvelous and easy to use--even for the most tech-phobe guests) was absolute awe! My husband's only word WOW!!
She covered detail shots of the venue, both parties getting ready, ceremony, venue details, arrival to reception, grand entrance, all the dances and speeches, a performance of our daughters, fun table portraits with us running table to table within 2 minutes, late night dancing, cake-cutting and over-all ambience, and details.
No babysitting. No chasing. No worries. No stress! Which is EXACTLY what you want in a photographer! She was the first and by far the best vendor I hired, and I would hire her again in a heartbeat! She truly has a gift, and her photography is absolutely STUNNING, and her imagery will last a lifetime!
FYI—I'm based in Los Angeles, CA.
Our wedding photos came out better than I could have even imagined. Stacie was able to capture us and our day perfectly. Her attention to detail, consistent communication, easy going attitude and overall photography knowledge truly make her something special. We are so thrilled to have the most perfect keepsakes from our wedding and are beyond grateful that we got the chance to work with such an incredible vendor! Thank you so so much Stacie!
With how many decisions there are to make when planning a wedding, let me help you make your life a little bit simpler- just choose Stacie.
I had a few photographers that I had planned to interview, but after meeting Stacie I canceled the rest of my interviews. After feeling her energy I knew she was who I wanted around me on my wedding day. She’s so sweet and easy to connect with, and her energy is calm and grounded. It was a no-brainer to follow my intuition and book with her and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
She went above and beyond in helping us logistically and her photos are literally stunning. It’s actually a problem because I can’t figure out which photos to print because there are too many gems to choose from. I can’t emphasize enough just how beautiful her photos are- they have an ethereal quality to them, they make you feel like you’re really there in the moment rather than just being a photograph.
She’s the best of the best, you’ll make your life so much easier by choosing her. Stacie, I love you and thank you for everything!!!!
We are still marveling over the incredible photos we received from our wedding day 3 months ago. Our friends and family continue making comments about how impressive our entire gallery is. Stacie has the most amazing way to capture the emotions and feelings throughout the entire event. When we have shared the photos with others we never have a dry eye. She captured the hilarious moments where you think "How did she know that was about to happen?" And she was there at every tender exchange - from guests arriving and the sweet greetings, to the lasts guests sharing their memorable wishes for our future together - she captured all the emotions. I don't know how she managed to be everywhere at once but she was and every important or meaningful exchange was chronicled in the most breathtaking keepsake fashion. She arrived early and stayed late and was so creative with all the suggestions she made to enhance each pose. Stacie has an ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relax in order to capture the authentic moments of what is really happening on that momentous day. There is no way our photos could have been improved or enhanced. We absolutely received an a perfect package capturing our magical day! Thank you Stacie, you are absolutely the most professional best - and a supreme individual all around.
Vitae Weddings/Stacie is one of the most genuine humans I have met! She is an amazing photographer and took the most beautiful engagement photos of my fiancé and I. She caught us both so naturally in our photos, every time I look at them I find new favorites to add. I am so in love with my photos. I cannot wait to have Vitae Weddings photograph my wedding. I cannot recommend Stacie/Vitae Weddings enough!

Cheyenne, thank you so much! I had such a great time with you both and can't wait for your wedding day!
Vitae Weddings (Stacie) photographed our engagements (X2), rehearsal, wedding, and my bridals and I will never get over how incredibly beautiful they turned out. Her ability to capture a love story in such a stunning and timeless way is admirable and simply… UNMATCHED. I can sit here and fumble for the right words in an attempt to describe her talent but words wouldn’t do it justice, her photos speak for themselves. I have used her photos for our save the dates, thank you cards, Christmas cards, portraits at the wedding, and even managed to create a black & white gallery wall in our house and I still have people asking me who took these incredible shots. I’ve even been told that “these photos look like they are straight out of VOGUE” and I can’t make that up. But Stacie is so accommodating and makes you feel comfortable being yourself which translates in your photos. The day of rehearsal and wedding she was an absolute ROCKSTAR. Stacie took on more than the typical role of a photographer, she was the heart beat of the show and kept us on track and calm, while capturing it all!! She never skipped a beat. Family members and other vendors even noticed her expertise and dedication to making sure our day was captured in the way she promised. I wouldn’t have wanted to do it without her. Her turn around time is also something to be noted. After each session she always sent a sneak peek in what seemed like just a few days and then you would receive the whole album of the session shortly after. Stacie also makes the whole process of accessing/downloading your photos sooo simple. But I could go on and on and on… just do yourself a favor and book Vitae Weddings. We’re forever grateful we did!

Carly!!! You are so incredible. Thank you for such an kind review! I was so grateful to be a part of so many great moments leading up to your wedding. Both of your engagement sessions were so fun and your bridal session was a stunner! I'm still...
so impressed by you with all those mosquitoes around! Your wedding day, the culmination of it all, was magical. Thank you for trusting me to photograph so many precious moments. Congratulations again to you and Bradley!
We feel so lucky we had the opportunity to work with Stacie for a photo session with our new baby boy! From the minute she came over that morning, Stacie made us all feel at ease with her kindness and warmth; including our 4 month old and our dog! She did such a wonderful job capturing our little family together at home. The session felt easy and natural instead of overly posed or planned, and the final photos were so beautiful and professional looking! I am amazed at how many great photos she captured (including a great range of baby expressions!) in such a reasonable amount of time that morning, as well as how quickly we received the final photos! We will always treasure these photo memories of such an intense, sleep-deprived, and joyful time in our lives, and wholeheartedly recommend Stacie for all your family photo needs.
Response from the Vendor on 04/01/2023
Thank you for such a nice review, Elizabeth! It was so special to spend that morning with your family and meet your son for the first time. I'm sure he's grown so much since our session. We'll have to make plans to meet up soon! I am grateful t...
hat you will treasure the photos and always remember that sleep-deprived, yet joyful time. Hugs to you all!
I spent a lot of time researching wedding photographers in the Austin area and I can tell you right now I would chose Vitae Weddings over and over again. Stacie's ability to capture a love story and freeze frame time, is simply unmatched. I had a couple different visions for our engagement pictures and she made it come to life. We got our pictures back and I remember thinking that Stacie was a magician because there was no way my fiancé and I were that cute!! Let's be honest no one wants those dreadful prom looking poses as your engagement pictures and shooting with Stacie was far from that. She really just makes you feel as comfortable as possible and captures the true essence of your relationship. I know one thing I won't be stressing about on our wedding day and thats photos because Stacie has it on lock!!
Response from the Vendor on 04/01/2023
Thank you again, Carly! I'm still in awe of you both being in the middle of the Austin Rodeo carnival and making it seem like no one else was around. You made it seem effortless! Your love is a beautiful thing and it was a pleasure to photograp...

I cannot express how pleased I am with Stacie’s work. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she is such a sweetheart & made our wedding day so enjoyable. Our pictures left us speechless. Our engagement pictures & wedding pictures were everything we could have asked for. Her style is so romantic & natural, it captured the day perfectly. I’m so happy we found her & I 100% recommend!!!!
Response from the Vendor on 04/01/2023
Thank you, Cali! Your engagement session was one I will always remember. The light that night and the ease that you have with each other was just incredible. And your wedding! Crazy hot day, but you were so calm, cool, and beautiful the entire ...
time. Also, best dance floor party of the year! Thank you for having me be a part of such an incredible time of your life.
We loved working with Vitae Weddings for both our engagement photos and wedding. Stacie is an absolute rock star when it comes to photography. It is awesome to see her get inspired by a shot. She truly loves what she does. At our wedding, Bret came to hang out and photograph the groomsmen. We couldn’t have asked for a better fit. He took some great shots, let the boys be boys, and was enjoyable to hang out with. They both worked their tails off all night. Multiple guests told us, “Y’all are so lucky. Your photographers took so many pictures the entire time. You will have so many awesome pictures from your wedding.” We can’t agree more. We look forward to shooting with Stacie and Bret as our lives progress and our family grows! Love, Jillian & Steven

Thank you, Steven! Bret and I had such a great time with you both on your wedding day. And your engagement was really fun too! Thank you for trusting me to be inspired and creative and capture photographs that tell your story. I look forward to...
the next time we meet!
We absolutely loved working with Stacie. She was extremely professional, fun, and very chill. We’re not the picture taking kinda people and she just made us feel so comfortable. She helped us break out of our shells and the end results were breathtaking. She captured the most magical moments from our engagements to bridals, to the wedding night. By the end of it all, she felt like family!! I would recommend her to any one!

Thank you so much for such a kind review, Reagan! From engagement to bridal portraits, to your wedding, it was such a joy to be around you and Ben (and your mom!). I knew from the moment I met you both that you were something special. We had su...
ch a great time at your engagement session. And your wedding...AH! What a magical place, filled with the nicest people ever, all celebrating you both and the incredible bond you share. It was my greatest pleasure being a part of the festivities and being able to photograph the memories for you to treasure. Lots of love to you both and your families!
I am absolutely blown away by this company. Staci shot our engagement and wedding photos, and I was amazed by all the beautiful moments she was able to capture! Everything was so genuine and authentic about her work! I couldn’t be more happy with this company.
Response from the Vendor on 04/01/2023
Thank you, Mollee! The portraits on your wedding day still remind me of a painting. All the elements were absolutely perfect - you two looking so gorgeous and the incredible sunset light - I will never forget that! And the engagement photos on ...
your family's ranch were amazing. It's such a spectacular place. Thank you for having me photograph such special times in your life. xx
Stacie is not only an absolutely amazing photographer, but a genuinely kind and caring human being. She went above and beyond to help make our day perfect and even helped keep things running smoothly when we lost track of our coordinator.
The results of her and her partner, Callie’s work is incredible. It’s obvious how passionate this team is about their work and they were just an absolute pleasure to work with!
We get so many compliments and several people ask who our photographers were. Highly recommend!! 💕

Michelle! A long overdue response to your review... Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a nice review! Your wedding was so sweet and so much fun. Thank you to both you and Rob for inviting me in so warmly and making me feel like...
more than just your photographer. It was such an honor to photograph your wedding day. Hugs to you both!
Stacie really got to know us as a couple and made us feel comfortable during our shoot. She was flexible to accommodate some location changes, and we got so many pictures we love!! Everyone we've shown them to comments that they're some of the best engagement pics they've seen. Can't wait to have her around on our wedding day :)
Response from the Vendor on 01/19/2022
Awe, thanks Maggie! I can't wait for your wedding!
Stacie with Vitae Weddings is the absolute best! She is a very talented photographer with an excellent vision and is as kind as can be. Stacie was wonderful to work with and provided a much-needed calming presence during a high stress time right before the ceremony. And the pictures came out beautifully!
Before I met Stacie, I was a little worried that our venue did not provide the same amazing landscape opportunities like those featured in some of my favorite pieces by her online (note: our venue was small with more of a backyard wedding feel), but she quickly identified the best spots and angles in the house and captured the light in the most creative ways. We are obsessed with the results! Highly highly recommend!
Response from the Vendor on 01/19/2022
Thank you so much, Kim! The two of you and your connection is what made your photographs so special. You venue with all it's charm just made for a really great backdrop.
Stacey takes amazing photos and works incredibly hard to capture your special day! I LOVE our wedding pictures!
Response from the Vendor on 12/28/2021
Thanks, Wendy! It was incredibly special to be part of such an intimate celebration. Love you guys!
Stacie has such an amazing talent and captured every important moment on camera of our wedding. I envy your skills and would like to thank you for doing such a great job for us! The pictures blew our mind and I would recommend her services to anyone looking for above and beyond photography!
Response from the Vendor on 12/14/2021
Thank you, Joel! I was so honored to be a part of your day. Your family and friends made me feel so welcomed and special - I truly appreciate you all!
Choosing Vitae Weddings to shoot our wedding was hands down the best decision that I made in the entire process of wedding planning. Stacie (and Bret) were both so laid-back and genuine and made me feel at ease and comfortable on what can otherwise be an extremely stressful day. Their photos are just absolutely beautiful and manage to capture everyone's real personality, even the wallflowers in our family who tend to stick on the sidelines. Their photos (and they themselves) are so authentic; I can't recommend them enough.
Response from the Vendor on 12/14/2021
Colby! Your wedding day was so magical and dreamy. You and Jack are like warm rays of sunshine and it was incredibly special for us to be a part of your wedding day. So much love to you both!
WOW WOW WOW! We were totally shocked by the amount of photos we got back from our wedding. Vitae captured every moment of our big day perfectly and there are so many amazing pictures to choose from. We couldn't be happier with the quality and quantity! Stacie and her husband are extremely professional, friendly, and a joy to work with. We would absolutely work with them again and we highly recommend.
Response from the Vendor on 12/14/2021
Thank you, Erika! So many great memories - and laughs - from your wedding day! You and Austen are so kind and thoughtful with the best sense of humor together! We loved being a part of your day.
We just received our preview and I am absolutely speechless. I can't even believe it's us in those photos. Even more than that though - Stacie was incredible. My now husband is a man of few words and on our wedding night as we were talking about the day he just said "Stacie was great. There was so much going on & she had such a calming energy." We didn't feel rushed AND we were able to get all the shots while still having enough time to join the cocktail hour for a bit, which was important to us. The whole day was a blur, but I remember the photo session because it felt so relaxed. It was probably one of, if not, my favorite part of the day.

ahoe!
Vitae Weddings were amazing to work with!!! Stacie is so nice and genuine. She made us all feel very comfortable and excited and the pictures turned out amazing. Not only is the quality phenomenal, they also don't look like a boring photostock wedding photo, they're truly unique. Vitae Weddings is so amazing to work with. Stacie even helped with our timeline and did a great job at wrangling everyone. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Response from the Vendor on 10/14/2021
Thank you, Alex! Your families and friends were so generous with their compliments to me on your wedding day. I am so grateful. You have an incredible group of people in your lives! Thank you again for having me be a part of your day!
We absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Stacie and Callie’s work! They did our engagement session, along with my boudoir photos. Everything turned out better than we imagined! Beyond beautiful, and all of our family and friends still compliment our engagement photos. Stacie helped me feel so comfortable during the boudoir shoot. She really knows the right angles, lighting, etc. and it was like working with a friend. Incredibly helpful, professional and knowledgeable. We can’t recommend Vitae enough! We will cherish our photos forever, and can’t wait to work with them again.
Due to the pandemic, we had to move our wedding to April 2021 (the original date was May 2020). Fortunately, the Vitae team was able to accommodate our new date and a new location! As our wedding approached, Stacie was excellent at communicating with us and even asked if she and her husband (and our second photographer), Brett, could meet us at our rehearsal the day before the wedding. On the day of the wedding, Stacie and Brett were wonderful! Not only did they make us feel comfortable, we genuinely had so much fun with them throughout the day. They were both so kind, helpful, and a complete joy to be around. We truly felt like we hit the jackpot with the Vitae team and are so gracious they were a part of our long-awaited special day! We received our sneak peek pictures within two weeks, and we received all of our photos within 3-months. To say we love our pictures is an understatement. They are stunning! The Vitae team is Professional, warm, creative, and immensely talented! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Stacie, Brett, and Callie!
My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Stacie and Bret for our wedding photo shoot, and we couldn't be more happier with the outcome. We had a very quick turn around on our photos, and we are so happy with the results! Thanks again for capturing our special moment in the best way possible! It was extremely personable from the moment we started working with them.
Stacie and Bret were amazing! They were so much fun to work with and are just genuinely fantastic people. They were super prepared and knew all of the different shots they wanted to get even though it was their first time at the venue (you would have never known that). They gave us useful feedback throughout and guided us just enough while also giving us space to bring ourselves to the photos. And importantly, the photos turned out INCREDIBLE! We truly cannot recommend Vitae Photography enough!!
First let me begin by saying I CANNOT say enough about the AMAZING team that is Stacie and Callie. Working with them was truly a dream. We used them for both an engagement photoshoot and for our wedding and are SO HAPPY we did!! They were worth every last penny. Seriously, the best investment we made for our wedding. Their body of work is absolutely stunning and professionally they complement one another so beautifully. Having two equally talented and artistic photographers really makes this team stand out. With many other photographers we looked into hiring there was a head photographer and an assistant. We loved that Stacie and Callie were equally skilled and also had different strengths that played off of each other. The result was a series of photos that were absolute magic!
Something else we loved about Vitae was the beautiful candid portraits they produced of not just us as a couple but also of our guests. We thought this was so sweet and such a beautiful way to remember all the amazing people who made our day so special. They are also masters of lighting and captured so many moments with perfect rays of sun streaking through at just the right angles. Again, pure magic!
Stacie and Callie were incredibly responsive, on-time, and flexible/accommodating. They were supportive of our vision and helpful when it came to troubleshooting. They are both very calm, which really helped us on our big day to stay relaxed and enjoy the moment. They also genuinely love weddings, which shows in their work and made them so pleasant to work with. Their photographs truly speak for themselves (they are true artists), but I will gladly say I feel they offer something unique to the wedding industry. We would hire them over and over again!! Thank you Stacie and Callie for such a wonderful experience! We will cherish the beautiful moments you captured so thoughtfully for the rest of our lives!!
Stacie and Callie at Vitae were wonderful. Period. We've both worked with professional photographers through work and were consistently impressed with their quality, creativity, professionalism, and just how great it was to have them as part of our wedding. As someone who's usually not comfortable with posing for photos and always self-conscious when someone's in the room taking them, I cannot stress enough how great Stacie and Callie are at putting you at ease.
You're placing a lot of trust in anyone to photograph your wedding. From the first time we talked with them, through our engagement session, that trust was 100% there with Vitae. By the big day, we had zero doubt that they would capture those big moments perfectly. And, of course, they were.
Callie and Stacie were amazing to work with and we couldn’t have been happier with how our photos turned out from our special day. They were so friendly and pleasant to work with. When we got the photos back we were blown away, as was our families. They captured the special day so well and the joy in everyone’s faces. We loved that they not only did the planned photos - family photos, couple photos, etc. but they took some awesome candid ones that just captured the moment so well. They really are amazing photographers and we recommend them 100%.
Stacie and Callie are amazing! Callie was unable to be there for our wedding, but Stacie's husband Bret stepped in and they were both superb! They arrived the day before to scope out all of the best photo locations on the property and after meeting with them for the first time in person, we knew they were truly wonderful, professional, and phenomenal photographers.
Stacie and Callie were a dream come true! They were wonderful and communicative throughout the entire process, and they had such a presence on our wedding day. They were up for traveling to our little corner of Upper Michigan, and I'm so glad they did! The photos are GORGEOUS and full of joy and love. We feel so lucky to have had them capture our special day.
My husband and I cannot say enough nice things about Vitae Weddings. Beginning to end, Callie & Stacie were so wonderful to work with. From helping us plan the entire schedule and then helping guide us through on the actual day, we could not have had a better experience. We felt so comfortable having both of them with us throughout our wedding day, capturing all of our beautiful moments. Our photos are so incredible and when we look at them, we feel transported back to the most special day of our lives. Thank you Callie & Stacie!!
Vitae weddings is made up of two of the most amazing photographers! They are an amazing team. Stacie and Callie were always professional and so much fun to work with! Not only did we enjoy our time with Vitae, they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and the photographs of our engagement session and our wedding are beautiful! Hiring Vitae was the best decision we made! Capturing the memory and feel of your wedding is so important. Stacie and Callie have a gift of telling the story and capturing the essence of your wedding through their lenses and making the photographs STUNNING. We will be forever grateful to them for the most gorgeous memories that we get to cherish forever!
I could not be happier with the photos that were taken on our wedding day. Stacie and Callie did a fantastic job! They made sure to get photos in all kinds of lighting at our event, we had wonderful first look photos, great photos during the ceremony, fantastic photos on the forest after the ceremony, and stunning photos by the lake at sunset...not to mention all of the photos taken in between those events. They make taking photos fun, professional, but also fun to be around. They had my bride and I laughing and smiling the entire time they were taking pictures. It was a spectacular day captured forever, thanks to Vitae Weddings!
Vitae weddings did a phenomenal job photographing our wedding!! They captured all the candid emotion and natural beauty in the venue. Their goal was to capture us in the most natural way and our pictures truly reflect that! The sunset photos and sunlight beaming through the trees is stunning! They are amazing photographers and the sweetest down-to-earth women! Thank you a Stacie & Callie for capturing all the beautiful moments from our special day!
We worked with Callie of Vitae Weddings for our photos on our wedding day and they turned out fantastic!!! She was really easy going, professional and enjoyable to work with. She is also very sweet and was able to hustle to get the job done in the short amount of time we had at the chapel. She really made the most of capturing beautiful moments in a natural yet creative, journalistic style. We are so happy with the quality and style of these photos and are so grateful they turned out so beautiful. A huge THANK YOU to Callie of Vitae Weddings!!!
Vitae is the absolute best!!! They are true artists who have clearly honed their craft over the years. Stacie guided us through the process and made us feel comfortable through our engagement session and wedding day. I absolutely hate having my photo taken but I barely even noticed her during the day and even when we did portraits, to my surprise, they were actually fun and I enjoyed having a quiet break with my new wife:). I credit Stacie for knowing how to put us at ease. I would highly recommend Vitae to anyone!
Stacie and Callie were an absolute dream to work with. We had a tiny, family-only destination wedding so we really wanted to make sure we had photographers that were able to both perfectly capture candid moments in an intimate setting as well as just hang with our small party! Needless to say, we were ecstatic when we got our pics and can rave on and on about our experience. My husband and I are not a huge fan of the camera, but even without having an engagement shoot before, they put us at total ease and were so kind and professional. Stacie and Callie also shot my sister’s wedding several years ago so goes to show how much my family loves their photographs! They are very experienced and I even leaned on their input when organizing our itinerary. Hands down recommend! They are incredible.
Stacie & Callie are amazing! They did such a fantastic job on our wedding day taking all of the photos we could've imagined (and beyond), all while making the whole experience very comfortable and stress-free for us! Every photo looks so magical and beautiful, perfectly capturing how we felt that day. So grateful to have had them as our photographers, and to have photos that we can truly cherish for the rest of our lives. Wouldn't have had it any other way!
Stacie and Callie were so amazing at our wedding. They were quick and organized to get all of the posed family photos and then got really beautiful photos of us during and after the ceremony. Would book them again in a heartbeat!
Stacie was incredible. Pleasure to work with, made the experience so special and she captured amazing photos. We give her our strongest endorsement!!!
I wish there was more stars to give! Vitae Weddings was so great from the first contact I had with them all the way through to now! Starting with a pre-wedding video call, emails in between and follow ups right after the wedding. Stacie was there to answer any and all questions (even with Callie getting married right before our date-she was with us the whole way). Stacie and Becca shot the wedding and they were both absolutely AMAZING. Their professionalism, sweet personalities and ability to get all the shots we asked for as well as all the great ones we didn't know we wanted was beyond what could ever have wanted! From what we seen so far-the photos are absolutely DREAMY! Can't wait to get the rest back. We will be sure to hire them again for any big event we have in the future. 100% RECOMMEND!!!!
I found Vitae Weddings while searching for photographers on various wedding websites. I went to their website and looked at their photos and fell in love with them. They didn't look like every other wedding photos that I had seen a million times and that's what I was looking for! They capture a lot of candid, in the moment shots that really make you re-experience the feelings of your special day.
We loved having Stacie and Callie at our wedding. They were great at directing all of us for the group and posed photos but also amazing at stealthy capturing all of the special moments in between.
When we received our photos, we were beyond happy with how they turned out! They were exactly what I hoped for and am so happy that I found them. Everyone who we showed the photos to were in awe and loved them.
Thank you Stacie and Callie for capturing our day!!! Xo
When we met Stacie and Callie, we instantly loved them and felt super comfortable.. which is a huge thing given how much craziness is happening on the day of the wedding. They managed to get SO many beautiful photos, and they were so easy going and made us feel very relaxed, and we didn't feel stressed about having to take photos throughout the day. Highly recommend these ladies :)
Vitae Weddings was amazing! They have the best eye and made us feel so comfortable. I can't recommend them enough!!
We talked to quite a few photographers before Vitae and they all seemed ok. But when we had the call with Stacie, we spoke for an hour and felt like we were catching up with family. There was a level of comfort that we didn’t have with anyone else, and that’s important. It brought my wife and I out of our shells. Vitae shot both our engagement and wedding photos and we could not be happier with them. Stacie and Callie took the time to get to know us to make sure our photos really felt like us. They are always working together and they have a connection that really allows them to know what the other is doing. And they really do work. We got our photos back and realized they were really hustling. We didn’t have a small venue, but they really seemed to cover it all. The photo turnaround is quick and the results were amazing. Thank you Stacie and Callie!
Could not be more happy with our engagement and wedding photos. Callie and Stacie really captured the day perfectly, as well as amazing smiles and moments with our family and friends, and overall where so easy to work with! I was really nervous about hiring photographers because I work with photographers for my work, and when I was pointed to their website I knew instantly they were the photographers for us, and never felt stress about the photos after that point. The end results are truly stunning, we are so happy!
My husband and I were thrilled with how our photos turned out. They were so stunning! I love Vitae's style of photography and how all of their photos collectively tell a story of our wedding day!

Stacie and Callie shot our wedding last year and we absolutely loved working with them! They captured so many special moments. We love their aesthetic and all the photos from our wedding are beautiful. They were the best and would highly recommend them to any of our friends or family!
We get so many compliments on our wedding photos! Stacie and Callie made us feel so comfortable and special. Couldn’t ask for more.
What a great team!
They took the time to meet with us months before to fully listen to and grasp our vision for our wedding... and when the day finally arrived, they could not be more professional.
They rolled with ease through everyone’s high emotions and the unexpected weather on wedding day.
And when we finally saw our photos a few weeks later, we were absolutely blown away! They captured all the special moments and then some.
Can’t wait to see our photo book!!
Stacie and Callie did both our engagement photos and our wedding. They were wonderful, extremely prepared and excellent to work with. Our pictures came out wonderful and we and our family love them. We found them because they shot the weddings of other photographers that we were looking at. They're the wedding photographer's photographers.
VITAE weddings is EVERYTHING!!!! Callie and Stacie are unbelievably amazing -- they were both extremely friendly and professional. They made us feel so comfortable and documented our day perfectly. Our photos tell the story of our day so well, I can't praise them enough!
Stacie and Callie are wonderful to work with. We are very pleased with the photos, and they were calming presence during our wedding weekend. They were organized so the posed pictures did not last a long time, and the rest of the time they did a great job capturing same very special candid moments of my husband and me and our guests. Overall, they were a joy to have around and helped out in other ways, like travel advice and pinning on boutonnieres. They are two down to earth, fun, professional woman, and I highly recommend them.
My Husband and I wanted our wedding pictures to look and feel different than what you typically see in wedding photography. Stacie and Callie are true creatives and capture the day much different than any other of their kind. They find the best light, the color in their images is warm and vibrant and our most favorite aspect of their style is their eye for the most amazing candid shots. They beautifully capture the love, the tears and the laughter expressed throughout the day. They are lovely ladies and it was lovely having them a part of our day.
If you’ve found or been referred to these lovely ladies, consider yourself lucky!! I can’t say enough about what talented story tellers Stacie and Callie are. I researched and spoke to nearly a dozen photographers, many of whom I was referred to by friends and family, but found Vitae Weddings online. Many might think this was risky, not having a personal referral, but after speaking with Stacie and seeing their incredible work, we knew they would be the perfect fit. We look back on our photos and not only love the beauty of the images but are grateful for the real and authentic moments they were able to capture. We had beautiful outdoor wedding at a vineyard and I was also extremely concerned when finding a photographer, about their ability to shoot at night. Stacie and Callie got the most stunning photos of the venue, the lights and our guests on the dance floor!! We couldn’t be happier or more grateful they were part of our day.
Vitae Weddings are the absolute best! Wedding photos are such a huge part of the special day. They were complete pros and delivered tons of beautiful and unique photos. Not your typical wedding photos. We had such a hard time picking for our album. There were so many to choose from. I would not look anywhere else for your photography needs.
We HIGHLY recommend Vitae for wedding photography. We chose them for their candid aesthetic as it matched our style and would best capture our very adventurous wedding - 110 people in a solar powered eco town two hours north of Cabo. Tough conditions and a not so traditional wedding couldn't stop Stacie and Callie. The moments they captured not only left us with beautiful memories but even gave us deep insight into the emotions and interactions that unfolded over the long weekend. We could not be happier with what Stacie and Callie produced and how wonderful they are as people. 5 stars all the way!
Stacie & Callie were fantastic. We were looking for natural, candid shots of our wedding, and they delivered beautifully. They spent time getting to know us and what we wanted out of our photos, and they created a beautiful, vibrant record of an amazing day. Highly, highly recommended.
Callie and Stacie did a fantastic job on our wedding photos. Some friends remarked they were the best wedding photos they'd ever seen. I'm biased of course... but I just love the photos. We had an intimate wedding, so I wanted a team that felt like family. They are not only talented, but are both lovely people to have present on your special day. Hire them! You'll be glad you did! Their work truly captures that wonderful day.
You. Are. Amazing. These photos—your work—are gorgeous and fun and full of life. You captured it. Thank you.
The pictures were AMAZING!!!! Stacie and Callie were incredibly professional- we had them around all day from the getting ready to the last call. They became a part of the wedding party by the end of the day :) There is so much variety in the filters and composition. Phenomenal work. Thank you again!
These ladies are no joke. They have some serious talent. Extremely genuine and down to earth photographers who are multifaceted with their work. Did an incredible job shooting our wedding, did another shoot when our son was born and can't wait for the next. These thousands of photos will forever take us back in time and remind us of how good life can be.
And the albums we got made from them are works of art. THANK YOU STACIE AND CALLIE!! We can't wait to work with you again!!

Our photos are amazing and yours will be amazing too. These two are professionals of the highest degree and will take the time to find the perfect space, perfect light, perfect moments. Your portraits will be stunning, and the candid shots will show all the joy of your day that you may not have seen. Book them now. (and now for some advice from me having already done the wedding: Spend money on your photographers, your venue, band, and booze. Everything else is just fluff.)
We were more interested in action shots than portraits. We picked Vitae based on the great pics in their portfolio of people enjoying themselves. Wow, did we make the right choice. We have so many great shots of the fantastic moments: my new husband making me laugh, my father-in-law dancing, a few friends having a quiet hug. The photos really capture how the day felt--and what more can you want?
We are beyond thrilled with how our wedding and engagement photos turned out. Stacie and Callie at VITAE were unbelievably amazing to work with and created MAGIC with every photo. They were able to capture perfect moments throughout the entire day and went out of their way to find perfect lighting and backgrounds to take advantage of . We immediately felt so comfortable with them from the minute we met them at our engagement shoot and can not wait to continue to work with them for future life events :) Extremely happy that we chose them as our wedding photographers!!
These girls made our day! I love the amazing photos they took and felt so at ease with them when they were taking them. It was such a blessing to know this important part of our wedding was completely under control. The girls have a wonderful, positive energy that is just what you want to be around on your wedding day. We are constantly told how stunning our photos are and we couldn't agree more. Thank you Callie and Stacie!
Vitae Weddings did such a fantastic job of capturing all of the amazing moments of our wedding day. As we just celebrated our 5-year anniversary this week, we were looking through our photos reminiscing about what an awesome day it was-we both had to comment on how they were always at the right place at the right time and as true professionals- you didn’t even know they were there! Which is why I returned to The Knot to leave this review.
From getting ready, to the wedding and the reception after- the artistic eye they have just captured the mood, the lighting and the ambiance I had envisioned for that day. They truly did a fantastic job
Greg and I are obsessed with our wedding photos. They are simply gorgeous, and truly caught every moment of our big day. We are so blessed to have had such incredible photographers for our engagement and wedding. Here's to many more occasions to photograph!! Lots of Love!

"We just wanted to write and say "thank you" for the other day. We have been very stressed out because of the wedding planning, but it was so nice to be out shooting with the two of you. Your professionalism made it so easy and comfortable for us. The pictures are well received!! They look absolutely stunning. Once again, we had so much fun with the two of you and enjoyed every part of the experience."
We couldn't have been happier with our Vitae Weddings experience. It was like they were a part of our wedding party. They were positive and supportive throughout the entire process and the photos were AMAZING! So much better than we could have ever imagined. They are so great at what they do. We couldn't recommend them more.
What can we say about our buds Callie and Stacie? They're the best, most cheerful, professional, reliable, talented wedding photographers we could have asked for. The photos speak for the themselves – we're always getting complements on them, even five years later!
Stacie and Callie are a dream to work with. They were so wonderful during our engagement shoot and during our entire wedding day. They have this calming quality about them that made us feel comfortable so we could simply be ourselves. The photos they produce are overwhelming - they're vibrant, dreamy and full of joy. Everything we wanted. I was particularly impressed with how much they captured on our actual wedding day. The ceremony and reception went by so fast, my husband and I weren't even able to look around and take in a lot of the details we spent so much time planning for- Stacie and Callie captured so many sweet little details for us that we never would have seen otherwise. It's amazing how many beautiful shots they got, and they were never ever in anyone's way. They move around like two very cute, pret
