About this vendor
My goal is to document love authentically and elegantly. I always cry at weddings (usually it’s the father/daughter dance that gets me) and my favorite part of a wedding is when the couple sees each other for the first time as they’re about to embark on their journey of marriage. A wedding day is so much more than just a one-day celebration, but the first day in a shared lifetime of friendship, love, and commitment. I’m so honored to preserve love stories for generations to come. Although I’m very passionate about wedding photography, I love capturing all stages of life. I would love tell your story and am available for travel anywhere!

If you’re looking for a photographer who genuinely cares and goes the extra mile, Stacy is your girl! We literally had Stacy sign our marriage license as one of our witnesses because she played such a huge role in making our day incredible.
Stacy went above and beyond—she was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we started working with her, she was considerate, helpful, and ready to do whatever it took to keep everything on track. The photos she took? Absolutely STUNNING. I’m not really comfortable being in front of the camera, but Stacy made me feel completely at ease and confident throughout our entire wedding day.
She remembered all the little details about us from our engagement shoot and posed us in ways that felt natural for us. She listened to our preferences and was careful not to highlight the things I felt self-conscious about. She showed us the best ways to hold a pose when our planning-addled brains couldn’t figure it out, and she made us laugh when we were feeling a bit stiff. It felt like we were hanging out with a friend rather than taking wedding portraits - which was exactly what we needed to feel relaxed and camera-ready. She was on top of things, going through our shot list as well as her own to make sure that nothing was missed. She was comfortable telling people to get out of a shot, and stood up for us in a way that I really struggle with.
Stacy’s expertise really shone on our wedding day, and allowed us to enjoy ourselves more so than any of my other vendors. I genuinely couldn’t be more grateful to her.
Throughout the day, it became obvious that our coordinator wasn’t really pulling her weight. But Stacy jumped in to help wherever she could, even though that wasn’t her job AT ALL. Before the wedding, I thought that the coordinator was going to be fine, but Stacy has so much experience with weddings that she knew from the get-go that our coordinator wasn’t great. I wish I had listened to her to begin with.
I got so many compliments on our sneak peek photos—everyone raved about how warm and beautiful they were. The perfectly captured the love and joy of our wedding day. I’m so excited to see the rest of the photos! Honestly, I’ll never use another photographer again. Stacy is an absolute gem, and I can’t recommend her enough!
I can not possibly recommend Stacy enough. From making us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera at our engagement session, to delivering the most stunning wedding pictures EVER, my husband and I could not be more thrilled with having booked Stacy for our wedding. The pictures are gorgeous, she genuinely feels like someone you've known for years after like 5 minutes, she makes sure the everything runs so smoothly, she literally took off my shoes for me so I didn't have to struggle unhooking them, and we got back well over 1,000 pictures of which I love all of them. We will never stop recommending Stacy to everyone getting married, and plan to hire her for any future photography needs we may have!
If you are looking for a photographer/friend/therapist on your wedding day, please please please book Stacy because she is all of that and more. I’m someone that feels very awkward in front of the camera and I was afraid that I would ruin my pictures if I didn’t know how to pose or smile, but that was the complete opposite of what happened. Stacy walked us through everything, starting with the engagement session, and I could truly be myself in front of her and that is what was conveyed through her work because the photos are absolutely stunning. She captured mine and my husband’s personalities perfectly and I could not be more thrilled with how everything turned out! I wanted a dark and moody vibe and that is exactly what we got! Stacy and Jonathan were so fun to work with on our wedding day and I could not stop laughing the entire night which is really all I could’ve asked for the day of. If you are able to work with her, you will not be disappointed and you will gain a friend in the process :)
I truly don’t even know where to start. Stacy exceeded both mine and my husbands expectations. We got married last September and I find myself looking at my pictures at least once a week and they somehow get better every time. I literally feel like I’m brought back to the day and relive it all over again. Not only is Stacy an amazing photographer but she makes you feel SO at ease. I tend to be a little awkward when a camera is pointed at me and during our engagement shoot, Stacy made the process so fun and laidback which then took any nerves away from the big day. To top it off, Stacy is always available to answer questions and truly just wants everything to be perfect for you and goes above and beyond to make that happen. I couldn’t recommend Stacy more for your big day. My husband and I agree, it was the best decision we made out of all the details that goes into a wedding. So grateful for everything she’s done for us and now I’ve not only gained amazing memories through pictures but someone I’m lucky to call a friend. ♥️
Stacy is hands down unbelievable. We started working with her a year and a half ago and I am glad we did. We used her for our engagement photos and wedding day. Stacy was on top of her game, she had a check list of who we needed shots with. Stacy and I got along great from the beginning and I knew she was going to do an amazing job. I would recommend Stacy 10 out of 10!
Where do I even start! I found Stacy by luck after admiring other couples' wedding photos taken at my venue, I realized all my favorite pictures had something in common and that was that they were photographed by Stacy. When my then-fiance and I met Stacy for our engagement session we were very nervous and did not consider ourselves to be photogenic. Stacy made us feel at ease and had us smiling the entire time our photos turned out better than I could have imagined! Stacy was nothing short of spectacular at our wedding as well, she helped ease my nerves and even helped me put on my veil. She was willing to run around with us to get the perfect picture when we asked, but also respected our time and let us enjoy our day. Looking back at our wedding photos I am blown away and each time I look at them I have a new favorite. Do not think twice about hiring Stacy she is the best of the best. I cannot imagine our wedding day without her!!
I honestly cannot say enough good things about Stacy. She immediately picked up the style we wanted with all of our photos, was responsive and beyond helpful when planning everything out. The engagement shoot was the best way to help us open up about being photographed and she made it effortless to be in front of the camera.
The day of Stacy and her team kept us on track, made us feel comfortable and open and every photo is breathtaking. She captured every moment and worked with us on the creative photos to really encase the feeling we wanted to look back on for that day. Even with the stress of everything happening at the time she was professional, prepared and just a joy to work with!
Stacy was a happy accident that made my wedding day perfect! Due to Covid I had to change my date and my original photographer wasn't available. Stacy was referred to me by my sister in law and from the minute we spoke on the phone I knew I was in the best hands. She brought my vision to life and was such a joy to work with, I truly consider her a friend now! Her talent is unmatched and I am so happy to have the best memories of my wedding day.
I highly recommend Stacy for your photography needs, especially for engagement sessions and weddings! She takes beautiful pictures! We had so much fun taking our engagement photos with her - and it shows in the photos! For our wedding, she got all the pictures we wanted in addition to lovely in-the-moment photos and creative ones! For example, she does great work with lighting and reflections. Capturing great photos is just one of Stacy’s many talents. Throughout the entire planning process for our wedding she was responsive and detail-oriented, and made it clear she wanted to support us however she could. Best of all, on the day of our wedding, Stacy worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly and on time. She truly went above and beyond! Because she was so on top of it, my husband and I were able to really relax and enjoy our wedding. I cannot recommend Stacy enough!
Stacy is THE BEST. She was the photographer at my brothers wedding and just recently did my wedding as well and she did such an amazing job. Her pictures are gorgeous but she’s also such a great person to have on your big day to not only calm you down but also make sure you capture each moment perfectly! Highly recommend.
I can't say enough about Stacy! What an amazing photographer! She is so down to earth. She guided me in the direction of what to do and helped with all the stuff I didn't think of on my wedding day. An absolute sweetheart who goes above and beyond!
Stacy is awesome! She did our proposal and engagement shoots, and we were totally blown away. Her quality of work and professionalism were top notch. I'm extremely picky in who I hire to photograph things for me because I'm a professional photographer, and I couldn't be happier.
Stacy fully understands what's needed when capturing a special moment via photography. She is kind, courteous, and clearly extremely passionate about her work. I loved working with her, and loved her post work even more. She gets the highest recommendation from me.
Stacy has done our proposal and engagement photos and they are just downright stunning. She is always able to capture the pure emotion and love in my fiance and my expressions. She makes you feel so comfortable when she is shooting that it just puts you at ease. We love our photos and our family cannot stop asking for copies for their homes! Thanks for everything Stacy, your ability to capture lifes most beautiful moments is something to behold.
Having Stacy as my wedding photographer was a truly wonderful experience. After just one meeting with her I knew without a doubt that she was the one to help capture the memories of my special day. She was warm, confident, supportive, and real. Working with someone who treated me like a friend and who truly cared about making sure I had the best day possible was invaluable. On my wedding day she was confident and poised, she is a true master in her field. The photos she delivered were breathtaking and everyone I’ve shared them with has raved about them. I am so pleased with my experience and would recomend this wonderful women to anyone!
I just can’t rave enough about Stacy. We hired her for our wedding and from the day I met her, she put me at such ease and just had this calming presence with a wonderful sense of humor. I hired her on the spot and knew instantly that I made the perfect decision. She was not just a photographer, but an actual friend throughout this entire process. I won’t ever forget how amazing she was that afternoon. I was the most nervous that I had ever been my entire life. She held my hands, looked me straight in my eyes several times, and reassured me that I could do this. I honestly did not want her to leave my side. For the actual event, she was everywhere without us even noticing. She made sure to capture every important moment that day to give us memories that will last a lifetime. My family and friends kept saying how amazing she was because she was just all over the venue snapping photo after photo! It is so obvious that she does this because she has a genuine passion for what she does. I would highly recommend Stacy to anyone, you will not be disappointed!
Stacy is an amazing photographer! Our wedding isn't until next year, however we just had our Engagement photos done and they are absolutely perfect!!! Stacy makes working with a photographer like working with a best friend, she makes you feel relaxed and can be yourself !! I would recommend Stacy to everyone!
Stacy is a great photographer! So far, we've had her take our engagement photos, and we absolutely love them! The quality of the pictures were amazing. She helped make the engagement photo session comfortable and fun; it was like a best friend was taking our photos. She was very helpful every step of the way. She helped us pick out our outfits for the photos, and is more than willing to help us out with any wedding related questions that we have. She always responds in a timely manner to any questions that we've had. I would recommend Stacy to anyone!
Best photographer ever. She is absolutely wonderful. Couldnt asked for a more patient and understanding person especially when kids are involved in the photo session.
Stacy was really great to work with and a lot of fun. She made me and my fiance feel really comfortable when we took our engagement photos. We just recently got our photos back and the quality of them is excellent. I highly recommend Stacy! Can't wait for our big day!
I cannot say enough about how great Stacy was to work with! Throughout the entire experience she was organized and professional. She went above and beyond the duties of a photographer when our coordinator at the venue proved to be not so helpful. Stacy helped make a timeline of the whole day for us and on the day of the wedding kept us all organized and communicated with our other vendors. Most importantly, she was genuinely interested in getting to know my husband and I which led us to be so comfortable with her. Stacy's main goal is to make her clients happy while providing excellent quality photos. Thank you Stacy!
Stacy did an incredible job photographing our wedding. She went above and beyond to accommodate us and gave us exactly what we wanted. She presented us with a variety of package options to choose from and ultimately gave us a fair price for what we wanted. We highly recommend her!
