Stacy Smith Studios

y your wedding photos. More details below. My wife and I are not particularly comfortable in front of the camera so we were nervous about selecting our photographer for our wedding. Any of our hesitations were immediately put aside the moment we met with Stacy. Right away there was an excellent connection between us and we knew we'd be in great hands. In that first meeting Stacy knew exactly what kind of style we were looking for in our photos and she was extremely thorough with her overview of the whole process. Stacy is an incredibly skilled photographer. With technology nowadays most people with a nice camera, or phone, can take “good” photos. Stacy has the technical skills and experience (and equipment) to take AMAZING photos. She goes beyond just being an excellent photographer though. She has an amazing personality that helps make it feel like it’s just you and your partner; you even forget at times that there’s someone there taking pictures of you. She blends the right amount of professionalism with fun to make sure the entire experience is an enjoyable one. Never in my life have I enjoyed getting my picture taken as much as I did with Stacy and Shawn. Stacy and her team know more than just photography though. They really know weddings. They know how stressful the day can be, and they know how important it is to the bride and groom. Stacy goes above and beyond to help manage the stress, manage the overall timeline, and make sure that the bride and groom (and everyone else) is where they need to be (and when) to make sure you have exactly the photos you want to memorialize your day. It’s only been 3 weeks since our wedding and we’re already trying to think of other opportunities to work with Stacy and her team again.

gement session which carried through to the day of our wedding. Her and Shawn have such a great dynamic, they kept us, our family, and our bridal party laughing when we were supposed to be stressed. What we loved most about Stacy is that she’s not afraid to try something new, no matter how crazy it may be, to get THE shot. The photos she and Shawn took for us on our wedding day are absolutely beautiful and are the most wonderful way to help us remember that day forever. So so so many of our friends have told us how beautiful our pictures are. The quality of her work really speaks for itself! Overall, 10/10 recommend Stacy Smith Studios for your photography needs. We will be in touch with Stacy for all of our future photo needs!

n proceeded to leave it in our court to have the shoot or not. Feeling up for it, she literally helped us crank it out while we waited for AAA and even offered to drive us home! She's an angel! She had us laughing and it definitely put me at ease for our wedding day. She knows all the shots, angels, and poses and totally knows what she is doing. She is as good as they come and I cannot recommend her enough!

n with us. They were part of the party and we loved it! Highly recommend!!

person and doesn’t always feel comfortable in social situations. He said that Stacy made him feel so comfortable! Stacy did our engagement pictures- we had so much fun during the shoot and the pictures are perfect!!! The day of our wedding was a whirlwind but Stacy and her team captured it all- Even better than what we could have hoped for!! Everyone that I’ve shown my pictures too so far is amazed and I’ve even had some other recent bride friends say they were jealous as our pictures came out so beautiful!

ach photograph we wanted. Every important aspect of our day was captured, and we will treasure these photos for a lifetime.

make the day perfect and stress free. She let me drop off stuff ahead of time and gave the option of picking up stuff the next day if needed. The studio was also fully stocked with any little things you can think of so there wasn't any need to bring a million things like you would with a hotel. The space is huge which is awesome when you have hair and makeup happening and I was able to have other people stop by to say hi that morning without it feeling crowded. The bedroom for pictures is so beautiful in person, I can't wait to get our professional pictures back! BOOK IT, you wont regret it!

session and she was able to capture some amazing photos with them and then just the two of us. When it came to our wedding day she was excited, full of energy, and very professional. She took her time and captured every little detail. She was able to take things I mentioned were special to me and capture them in ways I would’ve never dreamed. We also had Shawn as our second photographer and he complimented Stacy so well. It was so fun looking at our photos from each perspective that they had. Stacy really knows what she’s doing and is able to direct a bridal party and family effortless fo make sure that all photos are done one time. She also knows how to take away stress and make it fun!! I highly recommend Stacy for your wedding. She is worth it and cares about her clients. Before we even got our photos back I was confident with how they would turn out and booked her for a family photo shoot for Christmas. She is amazing and you won’t regret hiring her!

and makeup stylists couldn't stop raving about the space. There is plenty of parking available and more than enough room for people to get ready. The set up for the bedroom is UNBELIEVABLY BEAUTIFUL for taking pictures!! The best part of this is that no one felt like they were hosting or worried about cleaning up prior to leaving. Stacy handles a lot of that. We were able to get the key to the studio beforehand so were able to bring a lot of our stuff prior and you are also able to leave things there overnight, including cars, to make it easier on you. She made it so easy for us to just enjoy the day. I would recommend using this space to anyone!

got our photos back to us very quickly and they were spectacular! 3 weeks later it was our wedding day and she and her second photographer Shawn were so great! They made us feel so comfortable and helped us get all our photos done before the ceremony so we could enjoy the whole night. 2 weeks later we received our sneak peeks and they were stunning! Waiting now for the rest of our photos to be edited and I can not wait to see them! Best out come for a bad situation that could have ever happened!

o the wedding. This was game changer because by the time the wedding happened, Stacy knew who was who and was able to get those who normally would not photograph to open up. We highly recommend Stacy because she not only listened to all of our concerns and request,s but she followed through. She also made us feel very comfortable and had great suggestions for us. Finally, our wedding was a same sex wedding and Stacy made the whole process go smoothly. She helped with suggestions and most importantly made us feel special and comfortable.

ictures were gorgeous and we just couldn’t have done it without her!

an outline and idea of what our day would look like. She had examples of albums and her work on the table for us to review and answered every question we had thoroughly. Having our engagement pictures taken by Stacy was a great trial run and helped us to better connect with her, which lead to a seamless wedding day! On our wedding day, Stacy and Shawn arrived early and made taking pictures so easy and comfortable. They were never in the way and offered a helping hand with things that weren’t even photography related! They completed every picture on our list and completely understood the vision we had for some of our pictures! They worked cooperatively with our other vendors and helped us to have an amazing wedding day. You can truly tell Stacy and Shawn love what they do as it reflects in their attitudes, professionalism, and final product. We are THRILLED with our wedding photos and can’t wait to share them with all of our family and friends. If you are looking for a wedding photographer- or any type of photographer- Stacy Smith Studio’s is the way to go! We will hire them again in a heartbeat as our future unfolds!

and Shawn were professional, flexible, fun and stayed on top of everything. She made sure to get photos based on my Pinterest board and all the must haves from our shot list. She also had a lot of cool ideas that made beautiful photos. Our engagement and wedding photos came out amazing! We absolutely love them! We wish her and Shawn all the success in their work and will definitely book them in the future!

s they definitely wasn't expecting that with the mill look on the outside they couldn't wait to start shooting. Stacy provides so many little extras microwave, fridge, bluetooth speaker, utensils, plates and even cups and glasses which was great having less stuff to remember to bring on an already hectic day. Stacy and Jake were very responsive,friendly, and accommodating for my group even when we ran out of time and just had to go and leave some stuff behind. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience and I highly recommend them to everyone. Everyone has been raving about the pictures!!!!

met with Stacy and she takes the time to get to know you as a couple, your family dynamic and bridal party. After meeting with her and leaving, we looked at each other and said “She’s the one!” What we had decided for a budget didn’t matter anymore... we knew we had to hire Stacy. We also had engagement photos done and due to vacation time and traveling Stacy agreed to work around our schedule and did them a week before the wedding. She’s very responsive, flexible and most of all easy to work with! I would recommend her and her team to anyone who asks! She has definitely gained a life long customer with us!

an overwhelming process to say the least! Where do you even begin!?!? I searched and searched for photographers and then I heard about Stacy through a friend who hired her to photograph her wedding and raved about her photography work. I then heard about Stacy again from a friend who is a small business owner who met Stacy at a small business event and had nothing but wonderful things to say about her as a person. This girls name just kept coming up with such good reviews, so I decided I would give her a go for our engagement photos. I knew it would only be for the engagement photos because we were having a destination wedding and I automatically assumed that we could not budget in to house another person besides ourselves while in Mexico. So we went to the engagement shoot not having a clue what to expect, and let me tell you, we had an absolute blast with Stacy! She is fun and outgoing and is willing to do whatever it takes to get a good shot! She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed while in front of the camera. We laughed so much, I swear we almost forgot she was even shooting pictures! We had only just met her, but felt like we'd known her for years! We maybe spent an hour to 90 minutes with her and on our way back to the cars asked her what it would take to get her to accompany us to Mexico to shoot our wedding! Before the big day, I decided to have Stacy shoot a boudoir session with me as a gift for my husband. What an amazing experience that was. Stacy made me feel sexy and confident while in front of the camera. She gave me tips ahead of time on how to get a good shot as well as provided me with the option to have my hair and makeup done by a professional at her studio before the shoot. She went above and beyond in helping me prepare and in the end provided me with a gorgeous leather bound book filled with photos for my husband to enjoy. ( He LOVES it BTW!) Fast forward to our big day, in Mexico. We decided that we did not want to hire the photographer that the resort provided. We felt that not getting to know them ahead of time would never allow us to feel comfortable in front of the camera and we would never have the opportunity to connect with them on a personal level. For those reasons, I felt our photos would suffer and I decided against hiring anyone but Stacy! And to be honest, the price to bring her was compareable to the photographers prices there at the venue! Needless to say...Stacy came! Stacy spent a few days in sunny Mexico with us and we were given the opportunity to work with a unique photographer that we've gotten to know on a personal level. She knew what we liked and didn't like in photos, she knew how we interacted with one another as well as how we interacted with her and the camera. We felt 100% comfortable while she photographed us because by the time our destination wedding rolled around, we felt close enough to Stacy to be able to call her our friend. The day of our wedding was much like the day of the previous photo sessions we had. Lots of laughing, fun, and being ourselves! Stacy had scoped out the resort to find a perfect spot for our "first look" photos, she laid in the White sands of Mexico to get the perfect shot of our group toast, and even participated in a push up challenge with our best man! We had an absolute blast! The day after our wedding we went out for a sunset trash the dress session. We trekked through some rocky beach water to make our way to a secluded area that provided indescribable scenary for our shots. Stacy showed no hesitation in bringing all of her equipment out there with us. She was willing to do what she had to do to get the most amazing shots imaginable. What I love most about Stacy, is how passionate she is about her job. She LOVES what she does and it shows in her work. She gets so giddy and excited when reviewing photos scanning for blinking eyes and imperfections. It is a joy to watch her master what she truely loves to do. We feel truely blessed to have found Stacy, grateful that she was able and willing to travel outside the country to shoot our wedding, and privileged to have her artwork showcase some of the greatest moments in our lives. Our wedding will NOT be our last photography session with Stacy Smith Studios! We have zero regrets in our decision to bring Stacy to shoot our destination wedding! And you won't either!

ace is so magical and breathtaking. We also rented the photo booth, all of our guests absolutely loved it! She put together a scrap book at the end of the night of all the photo strips and our guests could write us all a special message. I can not put into words what an AMAZING job she did. Stacy will do anything to get the most perfect shot......she was in the marsh! Our ceremony was very emotional and every shot she captured was beautiful. Every time I look at the photos I get emotional, I feel as though I am in that moment again. I couldn't be more grateful for her and the wonderful works she does!!

we were so grateful to have professional photographs from that event as well as the wedding. She was extremely professional (and so was her colleague) and fun to work with. Most importantly, she had a really calm demeanor the day of the wedding, so I didn't feel like I had to worry about anything. She's fantastic. I highly recommend her!

ing and everywhere in between she has been there for us. We first met Stacy at a friend's wedding and we were blown away by the engagement and wedding pictures she took for them. Stacy is one of the sweetest women we've ever met, offering to be there if we needed anything at all throughout the whole wedding process. On our wedding day her and Shawn were there excited as ever with huge smiles on their faces. Also, it had rained the whole morning before the wedding, so the ground was pretty wet, but during our photos at cocktail hour, Shawn wouldn't even let me move unless he was behind me holding my dress off the ground. He was so funny, kind and easy-going. They had both memorized a majority of the pictures that I had pinned on Pinterest and made sure they made most of them happen. Stacy even brought a giant picture frame as a prop for one of the pictures that I wanted. We received more compliments about the photographers than anything else on our wedding day. We also had a Photo Booth through the studio in which Taryn spent the whole night dealing with the little kids that wanted to take photos every 5 minutes (and help put the book together) with a smile on her face. It was so much fun going through the photobook the next day! Everyone was so impressed that they stayed as long as they did, that they reached out to our family and friends asking if they would pose for pictures, and because they were such nice people. They all truly made sure they captured every second of the day and it meant so much to us. We are so excited to see all of our photos and share them with everyone. We have no doubt in our minds that they are going to be AMAZING! If you are trying to decide whether or not to go with Stacy Smith Studios, let me decide for you. DO IT!

emely at ease and comfortable. Stacy and her team are so professional and welcoming. They know exactly how to get the perfect shots and are always willing to go above and beyond. I will NEVER use another photographer again. Stacy and her team have a customer for life with us. We can’t say enough good things about them and the service they provide. On our wedding day the one thing I was not worried about was Stacy & her team. She made sure I was stress free and kept us all on schedule. With all of the chaos going on the day of the wedding it was such a relief to have Stacy and her team there.

zing pictures! It was a stressful morning to say the least. Stacy stayed behind while I got ready with the bridesmaids to help get me dressed. Stacy and Moe worked with us and the weather. They were able to take some amazing pictures of us and we couldn't have been happier with how they turned out!

out 2 months before our wedding to book Stacy. She was extremely friendly and professional and she was there for us at any time throughout our wedding day. Her pictures are breathtaking!! You will not regret booking with her!
