Stephanie Parshall Photography

planning process, including sending blogs and tips she has posted on her amazing website. She was more than a photographer the day of and I was so grateful for how efficient she made everything on my wedding day! Her photos are so beautiful and she truly is amazing at what she does. I cannot recommend her enough!

gift on the day of - something I completely forgot about. She also got some pictures/sneak peaks out for us literally the next day after our wedding! And a whole blog post of more than 50 images only 2 business days after our wedding. They are all stunning and I can't wait to see our full gallery. I seriously cannot recommend her enough! She is very professional, organized, and calm which is what we needed on our day.

at helped capture our love on camera better than we could have ever hoped. More than that, though, she made us feel so comfortable and really helped us have so much fun taking our pictures which I believe is also reflected in our photos. Our pictures show us laughing and captured our natural smiles because we really were laughing and having a great time. Stephanie also was exceptionally professional and organized throughout the planning process. She made it so easy for us and took so much off of our plate by helping to develop a thorough timeline on the big day. In addition, she went out of her way to coordinate with our wedding planner and videographer to make sure everyone was on the same page. I would recommend Stephanie to absolutely anyone looking for an incredibly talented, kind, and FUN photographer. We absolutely LOVED working with her, and feel like we gained a friend at the end of all of this. Please hire Steph! You won't regret it.

happy feel. I LOVE our wedding photos! we got a sneak peek the day after our wedding and a blog post by Stephanie 3 days after the wedding with about 100 edited pictures! I LOVED this because I was so excited to look back at the day and I didn't want to wait! Also, it rained the WHOLE wedding day. Stephanie came prepared for the rain with places planned for pictures and with clear umbrellas for us to take pictures in. Everyone of our family and friends told me how kind she was and how great she was at getting our LARGE family photos. She was the perfect fit for us and I would recommend her 100000000X. Thank you Stephanie for helping to capture our amazing and rainy day

on calls and was super communicative and prompt with ourselves, our wedding coordinator and anyone else we asked her to speak to. Once Stephanie got to California she was so helpful in photographing our welcome event the day before our wedding. On the wedding day she was early, ready to go and did not miss a beat, or a special moment. We got married in over 100 degree weather in direct sunlight, and she moved us so quickly and got everyone through the day with ease. Once we received our gallery we could not have been happier with how our photos turned out. I cannot rave enough about her skill set, photographs, professionalism, communication and overall amazement of all the things she captured leading up and on our wedding day. Thank you Stephanie for the incredible job you did.

f her style is tremendous, and she was always super flexible when it came to scheduling or shooting. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in the area.

grapher, she is being incredibly humble because she provides SO much more than just standing behind a camera and capturing images of your big day. She singlehandedly created our day-of timeline which was immensely helpful in planning/navigating every detail of the day. Stephanie also has a fanny pack that she totes around with her and whenever anyone needed something, she somehow had it at the ready. I think it may have been bottomless and fueled by magic. We first met Stephanie on Zoom for a coffee date to get to know one another and to discuss our engagement, love story, and rapidly approaching wedding date. During this meeting I discretely wrote a note to my fiancé that read, “LOVE her. OK to hire?” and he immediately agreed. Stephanie encouraged us to take our time considering her as an option and we did not need to take a second longer. We knew Stephanie was the perfect fit for our wedding photographer. She also agreed to an engagement session on lake Michigan in single-digit temperatures, which we so appreciated considering she publicly dislikes freezing temperatures. Now that you know how amazing Stephanie is as a human, let’s discuss her craft: photography. Our wedding day was the greatest day of our lives for so many reasons. The day went by in the blink of an eye, which was really sad for us. Luckily Stephanie was not around to shoot me actively sobbing in the bridal suite once the reception was over. We did not want the day to end. Three days after the wedding Stephanie sent us our blog post. THREE. DAYS. We were both so sucked into the photos and the day all over again. So much so that we forgot we were on our honeymoon. Fast forward to less than three weeks after the wedding and our full gallery was ready to go. We are beyond obsessed with the photographs and have so enjoyed reliving our big day through them. No one prepared me for how sad I would be when our photography time ended. When Stephanie came up to say goodbye, I reminder thinking, “that’s it?”. My husband and I are trying to figure out ways to keep her around moving forward. Open to suggestions of what we can have photographed. Thank you SO much, Stephanie! For your time, art, skill, attention to detail, advice, humor, guidance, and the epic pep talk for the groom while he was really not keeping it together before the first look! You made our big day run so smoothly and we appreciate you very much! <3

al dinner, and wedding photos it’s hard to even choose a few favorites. Beyond that she is an absolute delight to work with. She has so much knowledge about weddings and so many great tips, and went above and beyond in so many ways (including fixing my dress strap when I got overwhelmed with trying to fix it myself). She was fantastic with all communication beforehand, including timeline planning, and after. We had a very small guest list, and she was able to fit in with everyone so well. The only way you would guess she wasn’t just part of the family/ close friends invited (aside from incredible photography skills) is that she could actually coordinate everyone (and everything!) perfectly, especially as we had some hiccups in the day. All of our guests cannot stop talking about how awesome she was as a person and how great the photos are. I would 100% recommend Stephanie for your wedding, and can’t wait to book her again myself next time I need any photos taken.

so accommodating responding to my hundreds of emails, and even helped find a second location when the first one was no longer there. Fast forward to amazing engagement photos in Chicago, and several zoom conversations regarding timeline (hello planning and organizing queen Stephanie !!)and it was finally our wedding day. Well actually rehearsal. She helped choreograph how our bridal party should enter and made sure we ran it enough times to get it perfect. The day of the wedding, she showed up so early, took thousands of beautiful photographs and made sure the whole day ran smoothly. Stephanie even helped kylie and I fix a minor seating chart issue. She went above and beyond in every way, and our families could not stop commenting about how great of a photographer she was! We will always be so thankful that we found Stephanie and cannot wait for the next time we need photos taken!

I was convinced I wouldn't remember them). She makes being in front of the camera so comfortable even for someone who usually isn't. Our wedding party could not stop telling us how much they enjoyed her as well! From the moment she arrived on our wedding day she was on point with the timeline but was also so helpful when needed - like sending my entire wedding party to get on the bus while we secretly did our first look because I didn't want anyone to watch. Her work speaks for itself but I will say that her photos are absolutely incredible. She has such an eye for photos and her bright and airy style is everything I could have dreamed of. She knew what my husband and I liked and made sure to keep that in mind the entire time we were taking photos. In addition to her photography skills, she goes above and beyond to make sure you are well prepared for your wedding day, and also became my go to person during the entire weekend when I needed advice on little details. I am seriously so thankful for Stephanie and I hope I get the chance to work with her again in the future!

g and never even knew what time it was because Stephanie made sure I was where I needed to be according to our itinerary (that she made!) All of this on top of beautiful photos that we'll cherish forever! We've gotten so many compliments on Stephanie. From bridesmaids who picked up on her ability to take charge of the schedule still while making things light and fun. And from family and friends, who were stunned by how our photos turned out and loved the ability to look through our shared album. We're forever grateful for you Stephanie! Thank you again :)

ricing is very affordable and the pictures all turned out wonderful! We loved working with her and would defiantly work with her in the future on any photograph needs we may have. Thank you Stephanie for making our photo dreams come true!

hotos. I love how she shared some of our photos on social media and posted to her blog with even more sneak peek photos just 4 days after the wedding. The second shooter she brought with her was amazing as well. I am OBSESSED with how the photos turned out and I can't wait to see the rest of them. Stephanie also did a great job directing family members on where to go in photos, how to stand, who needed to be where, and keeping everyone wrangled up so we could breeze through photos. She also did a great job keeping the rowdy groomsmen under control to get some awesome pictures of them. Thank you so much Stephanie!!!

ay of. Stephanie got us our photos back in a timely manner. She was great to work with from the beginning. She was quick to respond to emails and any questions I had. She is always looking for feedback too which is awesome to understand what every bride and groom want. She is always improving and adjusting to each individual. I love how approachable Stephanie is and how much stress relief she gave me on my big day!

ed to chat. The free engagement session was incredible and allowed my very shy hubby to open up and feel comfortable in front of the camera in preparation for our wedding day! Stephanie not only is so talented at taking and editing photos, she makes the overall experience so much more relaxed and enjoyable. When COVID caused us to move our wedding date, we were horrified for many reasons, but Stephanie provided many resources, guides, and the reassurance that we needed to continue to enjoy the process leading up to our wedding. On our wedding day, Stephanie was early to take pictures of our details and already had spots planned out for all of our different photo combinations. As a very anxious bride, there was no one better to have there moving the day along so well. Our bridal party was in awe of how easy posing for pictures was because Stephanie directed them so well. The posing for everyone seemed effortless and smooth with Stephanie’s guidance. Our wedding day wouldn’t have been the same or have been as relaxed as it was without Stephanie. There truly is no one better and your photos will turn out AMAZING. Also, it is pretty amazing to see our photos from our wedding on her Instagram and Facebook pages, as well as all of the other couples she has photographed! She creates a fun, bright, and exciting community on all of her social media for anyone to be apart of (who wouldn’t love that?) Simply put, we 110% recommend Stephanie Parshall Photography to anyone!

nd I. Not only were the photos absolutely beautiful, but Stephanie's kindness, thoughtfulness, and attention to detail made the entire experience even more wonderful. The session is a memory I will not forget, and her photos encapsulate us perfectly. Thank you, Stephanie, for the gift of gorgeous photos and beautiful memories that we can look back on our entire lives. If you're looking for a photographer for your session, engagement, or wedding, look no further! Stephanie is incredible!!

back with our wedding. Our originally date was in July but my sister died on our wedding day so we had to move it and due to scheduling conflicts, had to find another photographer in a pinch. Through connections my Aunt found Stephanie and I could not have been happier with our experience. She was so kind and understanding. She made us laugh and just brought joy to the entire day. We were supposed to have an outdoor wedding but it downpoured all day so we had to move it inside. Which I did not want to do obviously, but Stephanie made the best of it and the pictures she took were better then I ever could have imagined. They were so bright and happy and she brought out our genuine smiles in all her photos. She is extremely organized and the gallery you get with all your photos is seperated by each part of the day (getting ready, first look, bridal party photos, ceremony, reception, etc). She got our photos back to us in just 4 weeks! For around 650 photos! And all of them were perfect. All in all I would highly recommend Stephanie Parshall to anyone and everyone.

our wedding; she was the most complimented vendor we had! She goes beyond an absolutely phenomenal photographer, she is a great resource for all things wedding related, and she is SO hands on with ensuring everything leading up to and on the big day goes exactly as you planned. Stephanie is truly a beautiful soul and the amount of passion she has just pours out of her work; she has a way of making you feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and knows exactly how to create picture perfect moments. Our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined and I will be forever grateful we chose Stephanie to capture those most important moments in our life!

he time to discover the dreams and visions of our wedding day. I told her of some of the pictures that were important to us and she assured me that she would capture those moments with ease and she did! Stephanie worked efficiently and effectively on our wedding day. We had a sneak peek of some of our pictures to us the next day to view. Her website was very easy to use and in a short time we had the whole gallery of pictures to view and share with family and friends! Stephanie has a gift and talent to capture one of the most important times in someones life. I feel so blessed that we found Stephanie! She made our wedding day complete. We will be able to cherish our memories forever with her photography! Thank you Stephanie for being a part of our wedding day!

I. She is very professional, organized, collected, and has lots of great content created by her for everyone planning the wedding. Thank you so much!!

as our photographer we would have nothing but beautiful photos! Photography was something that was extremely important to us both but sometimes my fiancé is a hard sell, he is overly skeptical and in his own words “unphotogenic”. At my insistence we booked Stephanie and did our engagement session with her. Our session could not have been more fun and relaxing. Stephanie’s constant coaching and posing tips made us feel at ease and it absolutely showed in our finished pictures. After we received our engagement photos, we both had complete confidence in Stephanie and her work. Stephanie was involved in many steps of our planning process, met with us often and was always just an e-mail away should I have questions or concerns. Stephanie built the timeline for our wedding day and she did everything in her power to keep us to it; we received many compliments that our wedding ran on schedule and that was all thanks to Stephanie, she kept the bridal party in line and things moving forward which I knew would be a difficult task as many of our party are easily distractible. Stephanie is extremely detail oriented and professional but at the same time fun and easy going, her laughter and smiles as she is shooting make you feel like you are working with a friend, not someone who is over serious, she is no nonsense at times but it is definitely needed, especially on the wedding day. Another major highlight for us was Stephanie’s flexibility and willingness to go outside of the box, my fiancé and are adventurous people who like things done a little different than is typically traditional; Stephanie was all for our wild ideas and made them all look great! Stephanie is an exceptionally gifted photographer and a complete joy to work with. We will certainly be contacting her in the future for all of our photography needs, we feel like we didn’t just meet a photographer, we met a friend!

evident from her website and through the photos she shared during our Starbucks date - but were absolutely undeniable during our engagement shoot. She was fun, made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camer and truly captured our love, our love spirit. Flash forward to our wedding day - again, Stephanie hit our look and feel right on the head. She even photographed my bouquet with a photo of my late mother and me. That photo is one of my most favorite - and it's just something she did because it felt right and she was tuned into us. I recommend her wholeheartedly!

r my wedding day! She is an irreplaceable member of your wedding team and the memories she captured on our big day are truly art. Everyone raves about our fairytale wedding after seeing our photos. She will always go above and beyond her duties as a photographer to support you in ways you don’t always know you need. She braved the polar vortex and rode on a ski lift for the first time to capture epic shots that I cherish. She has become my go to photographer for every life event and I can’t recommend her enough. Hurry and book her, you’ll be happy you did!
