For my wedding this past February I hired Stephy to be our photographer. She did an amazing job! I loved having her shoot our wedding, she eased the "awkwardness" that can sometimes come when taking portrait-style photos. Her communication leading up to the event was quick and organized. I always knew what she needed from me, and she ensured that I was always happy with the photos and timing and that my vision would be met the day of. After the wedding, we got our pictures back promptly, and they turned out better than I expected. She gave us a teaser beforehand and I loved the teaser but the rest of the pictures were even better! She got candids that I didn't even know she got that captured the moments and fun my husband and I had with our friends and family throughout the day. I cannot say enough positive things about Stephy and her whole team. I will be booking her for other photoshoots in the future.
If you’re looking for a photographer, look no further! My fiancé and I had the pleasure of working with Stephy for our engagement photos. My finance was very nervous for our shoot and Stephy was able to make the whole process very easy. She suggested several locations when we didn’t know what we wanted. She told jokes to make my nervous fiancé laugh for the photos, she was very kind and you can tell she loves her job. She even was able to capture photos of our pug, Captain who we couldn’t imagine leaving out. Working with her was like having photos taken by a good friend. We would love to book her again for our wedding!
My parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past December and Stephy was our photographer. She was recommended by a friend of mine, and we’re so glad we went with Stephy! I knew from that first email exchange that we would be in good hands. She was so collaborative during the lead up to the event, ensuring that we would get all the shots we wanted that day.
Kevin was her assistant that day and he was just as professional and communicative as Stephy. I was their go-to person for the event, and they were so easy to talk to and work with, definitely kept it real, and even made sure that I was good and drama free during the event.
As for the photos, they turned out fantastic! Stephy got great (and timely) reaction shots of my parents during key moments, and she and Kev were always one step ahead, ready to quickly take posed and candid shots. It was great to see the teaser photos on her blog, and we received the photos in a super timely manner. She just made the process so easy and stress free!
We couldn’t recommend Stephy Wong Photography more. They are seasoned professionals and just a fun and crazy crew to work with! Thanks again, Stephy and Kevin!
My wife Jenn and I had our wedding on October 28th 2023 at the Crossings at Carlsbad and Stephy Wong was our photographer along with her assistant Kevin. We have since gotten our photographs from our special day and they came out so great! They were both absolutely amazing to work with! They kept it fun and loose during the photo shoots, especially with my groomsmen and myself. We definitely needed direction and Stephy had no problem telling us what we needed to do. Kevin took the photos of me and my groomsmen getting ready and he made it so easy that we almost forgot we having pictures taken of us. Stephy was up taking photos and my wife and her bridesmaids and really captured her beauty and the enjoyment all the girls were having. You can tell they love their job, during the ceremony they were so great about getting every possible angle, the reception they were having just as much as we were and that’s a sign of someone who cares about what they do. Stephy is a no nonsense kinda girl but in the most fun way and Kevin is so light hearted and energetic. It felt like we had a dream team taking our wedding photos and once we got them I stand by that statement. Thank you Stephy and Kevin!!!
How can I describe my love for Stephy Wong Photography without ending up writing a whole novel? From the first time we read the bio on her website, we knew we'd found the one.
Stephy made the entire process so stress-free and fun; the day of our wedding she and Kevin kept everyone laughing and having a great time. When the strap of my dress snapped and we missed the sunset fixing it, they quickly rolled with the punches and pivoted from the planned sunset shots to night shots.
The photos are absolutely stunning. Not only do the formal shots make everyone look effortlessly beautiful, Stephy and Kevin were somehow able to capture the vibe of the day. Looking through the photos, you can really see just how much fun everyone was having. Serious, touching, silly and drunk moments were all captured beautifully and every time I look through them again I find a new favorite.
There just aren't enough words to describe how amazing the experience was. The sneak peak came so quickly and had way more photos included than we thought. There was a writeup attached that made us laugh out loud and the photos were everything we could have dreamed of. Seriously, I'll be singing Stephy's praises for the rest of my life, hard recommend.
I am so happy I found Stephy to capture my wedding. Stephy is a great photographer and very professional. Stephy made the process as smooth as possible- she was quick to respond to my emails and calls - from asking about her availability and pricing to getting us teaser and final pictures. I highly recommend Stephy.
Stephanie and Kevin are amazing. Stephanie did our engagement photo shoot back in 2019. We had planned for our wedding in May for 2020, and after our wedding was canceled, Stephanie was understanding, flexible and supportive.
Our engagement pictures turned out amazing. Stephanie even helped me fix my makeup!
On our wedding day, Stephanie and Kevin were incredible. They truly felt like part our wedding crew. They were professional, understood what we wanted, made promptly suggestions and delivered high quality work. They are extremely fun and all of our guests loved them. I cannot recommend them more.
Thank you both for such an amazing experience. Our pictures are everything we wanted and more.
Do yourself a favor and hire Stephy Wong Photography for your big day, special event or just because! My husband and I were blessed to find Stephy for our vow renewal photo shoot at Ponte Winery in Temecula. There are so many excellent qualities about her I can go on and on for days! She made the entire process easy, fun and stress free. She was flexible, accommodating and reasonably priced. We received our pictures ahead of her promise date and they are beyond stunning! Stephy has a wonderful eye for flattering angles and gorgeous backgrounds. Bonus! Aside from her talent, skill and professionalism, she has a fantastic personality and a great sense of humor. I am telling everyone about Stephy. We all deserve a photographer like her in our lives!
Stephy made my husband and I's engagement shoot and wedding day so much fun. She has a great personality as well as a great sense of humor. We are so happy with the quality of Stephy's work; in fact, one of the reasons we chose her as our photographer is because we love her photography style. My husband and I will cherish our pictures for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend Stephy for your photography needs. My husband and I would definitely hire her again.
What can I say…Fun, amazing, hilarious, quality, comfortable, personable! So many words describe our experience with Stephy and Kevin! We had the best time being photographed and I always knew when I was ready to marry I was going to use them! They have photographed my entire family many of times and to have the opportunity to have them share in my special day made the celebration even better! We are so happy with our photos and I highly recommend them for any and all photos you need. It takes a special skill to capture beauty and they have it!
There's not enough words to express my gratitude for Stephy! She is beyond amazing with her work and she was very supportive during my special event! I'm so lucky my sis found Stephy!!! Stephy did my engagement and wedding photos and she did not disappoint!!! Her and Kevy were completely amazing!!! Our day was full of laughter and shenanigans! I definitely recommend Stephy to be your photographer for any special event!! I promise you won't be disappointed!!!
Stephy is amazing! Prior to meeting her and throughout our entire wedding and pre-wedding experience, she was super responsive. And when we met her on our first Zoom call, we just clicked. It's really not easy to break through my anxiety and seriousness that sometimes comes from that. Stephy has a remarkable gift for putting people at ease, making us laugh, and making sure we're in the moment. Our wedding was less than a week ago, so we've only received teasers at this point, but the teasers are everything we wanted and then some. We'll recommend Stephy to anyone looking for a professional photographer.
This bitch was amazing!!! She traveled too LV and her pricing is budget friendly. Stephanie was professional on time and organized which made taking pictures quick and easy. She has also done family pictures engagement pictures and wedding pictures for us!
Had Stephy as the photographer for my wedding at Marina Village in San Diego and She was fantastic! I already don’t like taking pictures, but she made me feel very comfortable. She was both funny and professional. Would definitely recommend going with Stephy. If I ever end up needing to take photos again, she’s who I’ll go to.
Before I get into details, let me make you aware my Husband does not do pictures. I’ve known Stephy for some time and knew I HAD to have her as my photographer when we finally had our I Do’s. We had the pleasure of having Stephy for 3 occasions, our Engagement photos, Wedding Ceremony (due to covid we were able to have this day on our original anniversary) and our Wedding Reception.
Our Engagement photos were in Julian, CA, the entire time it was fun and fresh and FILLED with laughs, jokes and REAL smiles and yummy pie.
My husband and I made it official and had our Wedding at Centennial Park in Coronado, CA. I was nervous and I know I’m an ugly crier, but Steph was able to find a good cry. I didn’t think it was possible. It was an intimate ceremony and after seeing my photos, I fell in love with my Husband all over again. She captured amazing angles and I didn’t even realize she was there! She was professional and funny, was able to get the stoic guys to have some AMAZING shots and memories I will never forget. Me and my ladies look gorgeous! I was afraid of the touch ups but they came out perfect without looking too perfect if that makes sense?
We did the “getting ready” photos at my venue, the Catalina Room at the Marina Village. I didn’t have a room or a designated place to change. But Low and Behold! Stephy saved the day and we had the photos taken in the bathroom, she made the 2 stall restroom with a mirror look like a mini suite!! I was stunned when I saw those pictures! I had my Matron of Honor who helped me “get dressed” ask where those pictures were taken, thinking it was somewhere else.
At the reception she coordinated last with my last moment vendors and even with the Hālau (Hula/Tahitian group) that surprised us with a performance! I lost count how many times I cried, remember I’m an ugly crier… But oh my Goodness it was a miracle that I did not look like i sucked on a lime and stubbed toe at the same time.
If I had to rate stephy out of 5 stars, she SURPASSES those to a 10!!! She made everyone feel relaxed and at ease and made me look as happy as I felt. Thank you Steph!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Stephy is beyond FANTASTIC.
My SON'S have known her for several years and we're so excited for Stephy to capture their wedding day at The Little White Wedding Chapel
Las Vegas, Nevada.
Stephy is so organized and professional. She prepared a wedding checklist to reference. A timeline of the day and made sure everyone attending would be included with them during their photos on their special day.
Stephy went above and beyond to make sure she captured everything they wanted. Stephy is so positive and upbeat. Their day was perfect.
The photographs are incredible, absolutely beautiful. What a treasure.
Thank you Stephy for your exceptional gift.
Michelle
Stephy will forever be our go to photographer as no one catches a moment like Stephy does!! As return clients, Stephy repeatedly makes a session fun & memorable. She has an eye for beauty, scenery, & knows how to capture the perfect moment & freeze it in time to last you forever. Thank you Stephy for the excellent work you produce, you always make it all worthwhile. You are our "forever photographer"!
I have to say that if you want to have an effortless experience with the photography at your wedding and someone who knows the ins and out of making sure that every perfect moment gets captured then you can't go wrong with Stephy Wong. from the first photo to the last, to the extras she managed to take and we didn't even realize she got, everything was perfect from start to finish. She has an easy-going manner that makes you just want to smile no matter how stressed or worried you are. Combined with the fact that she's so professional even when she's busy moving about the floor pushing people out of the way to get the perfect shot. I rested easy knowing that she had it all under control. I have to say that if you're one of the people who needs to not worry during your wedding about how things will turn out just go ahead and hire Stephanie. Her and her team will make sure that everything comes out just as it should and you'll get a really great laugh along the way. Overall I could not recommend her anymore and I think you can tell by how long this review is going on that I have nothing but great things to say about her.
Stephy made us feel comfortable from the first minute we spoke with her on the phone. You can tell she knows what she's doing as she had every detail outlined for us. We were so impressed with her attention to detail and then the day of, she and her assistant were rockstars in wrangling our friends and family for group photos, and we honestly didn't even notice she was there for much of the time. The photos she captured of our special day are absolutely priceless and we can't say enough good about our experience with her.
Stephy is awesome!! We hired her for our engagement shoot first and then booked her for our wedding. She had many package options and they were easy to alter to our needs. Compared to other photographers we were browsing, she had the most to offer. She also gave us a discount for the wedding because we were returning clients! When we had to postpone due to the pandemics, she was kind and understanding. We even changed location from San Diego to Irvine. Stephy posted teasers within 2 days of the both shoots which my wife and family loved. Everyone was sending each other all the photos and raving about them. She was so much fun to work with and shared the excitement when my groomsmen and I bought a piñata to celebrate at the end of the night!
Stephy is soo much fun to work with! She makes it so easy to be comfortable when all the cameras are on. We hired her for our engagement shoot last summer and shortly after decided we had to have have her for the wedding. With the pandemic, our wedding got postponed but she was always understanding and patient with us as we tried to come up with a new plan. We decided to have a smaller wedding and she worked with us through the planning. She made our day extra special and took care to pay attention to all the details. She got along great with our videographer and both of them were tag teaming the whole event to make sure all the shots were fun and smooth! Stephy is so easy to communicate with and genuinely gets to know her clients!
For over 7 years I have been close friends with Stephy. I’ve always known about her photography business and knew she is a very talented individual. Admiring her blog and weddings she has done previously, I find myself in awe at the quality and life she brings, not only to her sessions but what she captures as well.
The 1st time she shot me was for a Fall family picture with my children and my mom. Seeing her interact with everyone and pose us for certain shots was pain less and we had such an amazing time! So much so, my mom ask about my photography friend every time I see her!
Recently I was engaged and she planned and secret desert dinner with the ring inside my cheese cake. I was clueless! My fiancee then proposed to me and she got all the great moments in real time.
We then had out engagement session that weekend and all I can say is wow! Stephy is a natural at what she does and you would be a fool not to recommend or hire anyone else but her! I can go one all day about my friend talents and how she captures those special moments we cherish.
5 Stars and beyond <3 <3 <3
Let's face it...weddings are stressful. Now throw in a worldwide pandemic - CALGON!! Stephy had our backs the whole way through - amazing professionalism! We never had to worry about the photography once. Stephy & Kevin had everyone feeling comfortable and laughing upon arrival. They were completely candid and captured breathtaking moments. We can't stop looking or talking about the quality of the product...and everyone is asking who the photographer was : ) We never felt burdened by the amount of photos taken. They were actually camera ninjas...hardly even noticed them in the background taking the shots. Highly recommend Stephy Wong Photography to all couples - far exceeded expectations. XOXO
Stephy and her partner were amazing! Well organized, on time, lots of fun, and she knows what she doing and made it fun for everyone! Pictures were amazing. We would recommend Stephy for everyone! Best best best!
Stephy is a gem! My husband and I are so happy we used Stephy for our wedding! She answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable and at ease from the beginning. My photos were the one thing I didn't worry about on my wedding day. We love our photos! Stephy is an absolute pro!
Stephy photographed my sister’s wedding, and I can honestly say she is the BEST you can get. My sister’s pictures came out perfect, and Stephy went above and beyond to make sure every detail of that day was included. She was so kind and so easy to work with, and even got us edited pictures so fast after the wedding (editing pictures takes a lot of time, and you could tell she worked really hard). I will never recommend anyone else. Thank you, Stephy!!!
Stephy was an amazing part of my daughter’s wedding! The photos were simply perfection! The lighting, the background, the subject matter were all impeccable. She endeared herself to everyone and I still don’t know how she got some of the shots she accomplished. Photos are one of the wedding items you cannot take short cuts - and you’ll be grateful if you choose Stephy Wong!
Stephy was professional, funny, focused and talented! She kept my crazy family inline to stay focused which was crucial to maximizing photos and the time we were paying for! You made our day special and you are great at what you do! Thank you!
I was the matron of honor at a wedding Stephy short & she was so fun, energetic & professional. I definitely recommend her for any of your photography needs!

It doesn't get better than Stephy!💛
Since we have seen her work capturing our dearest friends for their engagement & wedding, it only made sense that we select Stephy as our photographer for our own engagement photoshoot (simply put, no one else compared). Upon booking, Stephy wanted to make sure that we display our most authentic selves & capture the true Us. So we tried something different & incorporated a brunch theme, since my fiance & I first met over brunch. Stephy had a vision for each shot & she definitely executed!!! The teasers (available just within hours of completing the shoot) was EVERYTHING!!! As we looked thru the pics, the first words out of my mouth was literally "I F*CKIN' LOVE STEPHY!!!" (excuse my language but those were my true emotions after seeing how she amazingly captured Our Love💖 on camera📸).
Thank You & We Love You (but you already know that 😊)

First of all, I created this account solely to leave a glowing review for Stephy because she's THAT awesome and I want everyone to know.
Stephy did our engagement and wedding photos WITH ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. Not only did we get exactly the photos we wanted, she made both sessions SO much fun. I absolutely love that she releases some teaser photos shortly after a session too. She got along with our dog great, so that's also a huge plus, since I don't trust no one that my dog don't like.
Aaaand the reason why I think Stephy is THE BEST is because of her professionalism. She's prompt to respond (sometimes it's literally instant), super experienced (both as a photographer and a businesswoman), offers top-notch customer service, and I love her bubbly personality. I won't get into the shitstorm that happened at our wedding ceremony, but Stephy was able to maneuver my requests to a T, and for that, she's forever earned my trust. I was about to lose my goddamn mind (not at her; we had a couple... unsavory attendees) and she handled it with utmost grace. Plus did mention that the pictures were fucking amazing?!
Stephy and Kev made my wedding day perfect. They were always right there, ready for anything that was next. They came with incredible ideas, and endured the seaweed all over all our dresses for the beach pictures. Stephy knew exactly what I wanted, and delivered more than I could have expected. She was always available by phone or text if I had a question leading up to it. She even gave me 100 sneak peak pictures the NEXT DAY after my wedding. She truly captured the love my husband and I have for each other, and I would use her every day, for any event or any occasion I needed. I love working with her. BOOK HER NOW! SHE IS MORE THAN WORTH IT!
You certainly cannot go WONG with Stephy! We booked her services for our super secret couple lifestyle and elopement sessions (doggie included)--- both times were so easy!!!
Chris and I have never done a professional photoshoot before and was very nervous looking stiff and unflattering in photos, but Stephy's bright personality and Filipino jokes got us both laughing and so comfortable that we felt like we were with a forever friend.
She is genuinely one of the nicest and most heart-felt people you will ever meet.
You will love and cherish your photos along with the memories having them taken forever.
Stephy has earned our business 1million lifetimes over :)

Stephy and her team are AMAZING. We hired them for our wedding at Marina Village. They have a way of lightening the mood, making you comfortable, and also telling you where to put your hands if you're a bit awkward. They are flexible on location (met us at our Airbnb for "getting ready pics), special requests if there's anything you have your heart set on, and weather (it was supposed rain, but they never seemed worried). Stephy is confident in her ideas and thoughtful with her poses- making you laugh the whole time so your smiles are authentic. I'd recommend her for any photography needs you might have! She's quick to respond, fairly priced, and easy to get along with. Her pictures are gorgeous, just like her heart. Thank you Stephy!
Stephy was amazing! She has a personality that just makes you feel like you’ve been friends for years! She makes you feel comfortable and really captures your true beauty. Her work is fabulous and I am so lucky she was recommended to me. My husband was nervous to see our wedding pictures because he is very particular about what he likes in pictures. Needless to say, he was very pleased with the pictures. I promise you the minute you meet Stephy and see her work, you’ll understand why she’s the best photographer. I highly recommend her for any special occasion. She’s the best!
Words cannot express how happy we are to have found Stephy! She had us at "hello"! I absolutely hate taking pictures so for me to feel comfortable with a photographer was HUGE!! She guided us but also let us be ourselves so nothing felt forced. She's funny, personable and professional...I don't know what more you could want! Our engagement photos turned out amazingly and we can't wait to share them with all of our family and friends! Thank you for capturing my new favorite day! We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives.
Stephy is great! She responds quickly to emails and made our whole booking process quick and painless. On our wedding day she was amazing with our dogs (who did not want to be photographed that day) and our pictures turned out to be so beautiful. Thank you so much again!
You can’t go WONG with Steph and her crew! She has photographed me, my kid, my family, my families family, my family families family, weddings to children she is the ahhhhmazing! Trust this woman!!! 😍😍😍
Stephy is a very talented photographer and has a real gift for capturing moments and people's true essence on camera! She is super Professional, easy going, and makes everyone feel very comfortable while shooting. Pictures are received fast and they are amazing.
If you are looking for a talented photographer, Stephy Wong is the one!
Stephy and Kevin showed up on September 22nd to my daughter Courtney and her husbands wedding and did an amazing job capturing every moment of the day. They were so professional but also so down to earth. When you look back at your wedding day photos you want to be reminded of all the wonderful moments throughout the day. We could not have asked for a better photographer than Stephy and Kevin. She captured from pretty amazing moments shared between me and her, her father and her as well as the husband and wife they became that day. Thank you so much for the amazing photos we’ve seen so far. Can’t wait to see the rest in November. Thank also for sharing the day with all of us. We had a blast.
Awesome!!! Our wedding photography package came with an engagement photo session. We love all the pictures from both sets!!! Stephy made sure to get all the best photos, getting ready, family, candid, dance floor, during the ceremony, etc. and they all came out amazingly! Also she and her assistant are super fun and nice people. 10/10 highly recommend!!
What can I say! Can't go WONG with Stephy!!! She is truly amazing and makes you feel comfortable! Not only that, she has an eye for details and those special moments!
This whole process from start to finish was a breeze thanks to her! We loved all our photos and had a great time with Stephy and her team! She is one FUN lady!!
We love you!!!
Where do I start, I was a little self conscious and nervous going to take our engagement photos. The second Steph greeted us it was as if i have known her forever and I was able to relax. She really made it feel like we were the only ones there with no one else in site,and our photos ARE AMAZING! I am extremely excited for my wedding day because I know Steph is amazing at what she does! im so glad we booked her!!!!
Many brides and grooms go through a bit of jitters on the day of their wedding, but Stephy’s charm and sense of humor made those go away instantaneously. Stephy will not only make you feel comfortable, she will make you look and feel beautiful! She’s detail-oriented, artistic and extremely talented – she knows what she’s doing!
Another thing that impressed me about Stephy is her knowledge of venues, wedding vendors and anything and everything wedding-related. If you need a recommendation for cake, flowers, make-up artist, you name it, she’s got a name and phone number for you.
Stephy sincerely cares about her clients and will go above and beyond their expectations. We will treasure our photos forever. You will heart Stephy as much as we do!
Stephy is the absolute BEST! My friend recommended her, I had a phone consultation and immediately knew that Stephy was my photographer. Her attention to detail, is impeccable. Her ability to make you feel comfortable and naturally smile is remarkable. My wedding was 5 months ago, I received a sneak peek of 70 of my photos 4 days after the wedding and a flash drive with the rest less than 2 months later and every single one is phenomenal. I would recommend Stephy to EVERYONE and did not hesitate to book her for our upcoming family holiday photos! Did I mention I love her? She did our engagement photos, wedding photos and will be taking our family photos too...clearly I can't get enough. I mean I'd hang out with her if she wanted to be friends, haha. But really you can't go Wong with Stephy!!!!
Hello world. I can't say enough about Stephy's photography. You know those forced "every relative line up for a family photo at this wedding" shot where everyone is stiff and awkward? Well, you'll have to take that one yourself because Stephy only knows how to make everyone feel at ease and natural. I can't quit staring at the photos from my daughter's wedding. Stephy doesn't only capture your image - but also your personality. She is truly the bes
Such an amazing experience! We did not know what to expect from doing a real photo shoot for our engagement photos. Stephy made the whole process fun and not awkward at all. Her jokes were spot on for our humor and she won bonus points with my fiancé for not liking condiments. Her teaser photos also turned out spectacular and we cannot wait to see the remainder of them. A+++ experience!
I can't say enough about Stephy. From the moment she met us there was a feeling of comfort, and we were immediately at ease having been pretty nervous. She was seriously HILARIOUS and kept us laughing the whole time :) Not to mention, the photos turned out beautiful. Absolutely perfect and we have so many to choose from for our engagement photos. We're so happy and I would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you again Stephy. You're simply amazing!
Stephy was absolutely amazing! Her sense of humor and overall Quality of Service turned our already amazing day into a Magnificent one. She has a way of getting you to smile even after your mouth hurts from smiling all day. Thanks again Stephy! You are my go to Photographer and I can't wait to provide your name as a recommendation to my family and friends.
My fiancé (boyfriend at the time) had Stephy photograph his proposal. She camped out and waited for us to stroll by and for him to pop the question. The photographs turned out beautiful. We're not from San Diego and he had an easy time coordinating with her over email and phone.
We love our engagement photos and are thankful we had Stephy as our photographer.
I found Stephy on Yelp and immediately fell in love after seeing how she just totally put her personality into her site. You knew who she was just from reading it. Booking her was easy, all done over email. Since we were just doing engagement, it was super affordable and she was clear on what we needed to do on our end. She sent us reminder emails, and let us know when she arrived. The photo session was amazing! It was like she was our BFF for years. I love the pictures of us smiling because they're us in the middle of laughing. She made us feel comfortable and made the process so easy. Not gonna lie, I thought I would look stiff, as I always do in pictures, but Stephy helped us relax. I got my teasers the very next day and I am in love. I can't wait for the rest!
Stephy did our engagement photos and wedding photography and we're very happy with this decision! When we were shopping for photographers, we wanted someone fun, with a photojournalistic style, and who wasn't super corny about the whole thing. Stephy is that person! She made us feel relaxed, so we could be ourselves without looking like we were being awkwardly photographed. The photos came out amazing because of this - I recommend doing the engagement shoot with her too. We were borderline dreading it, but it was so much fun and then she knew all the best angles on the wedding day already.
Stephy and team are professional, easy to work with, organized, responsive, and surprisingly affordable. We'll be hiring and recommending her for many future events.
I remembered the first time I visited Stephy’s website. I was pretty impressed. The content of her site not only showcased her talent as a photograher, it also provided a great representation of her personality. After spending a good half-hour browsing her site, I knew I had to set up a meeting her. I’m so glad I did!
My husband and I interviewed quiet a few photographers, but after our video meeting with Steph we knew right away she was the right fit for us. She’s competent, knowledgeable and we connected so well with her. Stephanie took the time to get to know us and tailored our engagement photo session and wedding pictures based on our style.
Throughout the wedding planning, Steph provided detailed guidance on tasks that we needed to complete. During my wedding day, she helped managed the last-minute details of the wedding to ensure everything was seamless and as stress-free as possible for me. She connected so well with my wedding party and my family, which meant the world to me. She even knew how to keep the rowdy groomsmen in line!
If you’re still looking looking for a wedding photographer, please take the time to meet with Stephanie. She’s a high-caliber photographer. She’s genuine, loves cake, FRIENDS and karaoke. What else could really ask for?
Stephy is AMAZING!! I was so lucky to have her as my wedding photographer last month and I am blown away by the teaser photos she's shared of my wedding day so far - I cannot wait to see the rest!
I'm not the most outgoing person and was not looking forward to being in a million photos on my wedding day. Stephy and her team make the entire process so fun and easy that I never once felt stressed, overwhelmed or uncertain. She knows how to make anyone laugh and feel comfortable in any situation, while at the same time bringing a level of extreme professionalism to what she does. Her assistants Kevin and Angela were also amazing!! They were everywhere on my wedding day - from getting shots of our venue's property, to making sure all of my details (shoes, jewelry, vow books, etc.) were captured perfectly, to being available for every shot I wanted during cocktail hour and the reception. I'm not sure how they do it!! Stephy is a master at her craft and knows what angles and environments will create the most beautiful photos, and Kevin and Angela were right there with her. They helped to make sure my dress always looked perfect and coached me through the entire day.
I cannot thank Stephy and her team enough and I won't hesitate to hire her for any upcoming events and important life moments!! All you have once your wedding day is over are the memories and the photos to look back on, and I'm so grateful to have the most beautiful photos captured by Stephy to help me remember just how special my wedding day was. She far exceeded all of my expectations and I would highly recommend her to ANYONE looking for an amazing photographer!! Thank you Stephy!
You know how you have certain people in your life that you always go to? Like a favorite mechanic, or a tire guy, or a hairstylist? Well, I found my Photographer! Outside of a selfie, I am only allowing Stephy to snap pictures of me. She's got the vision that makes me look amazing lol.
I proposed to my fiance, Dominique (same-sex marriage) a year and a half ago. We get married next month! Yeahhhhh! Ok, so how did we find Stephy? Actually on Yelp! We interviewed a couple of companies and other people before we found her. It was important to us that a photographer was not biased towards same-sex. It was also important that we could research your work via social media. We didn't get that good-gut-feeling you're supposed to get when you make a big decision. So we turned to Yelp and found Stephy! We scheduled a call and my goodness we fell in love. The 3 of us must have spoken for 90 minutes getting to know each other, offering advice, and basically interviewing each other. Why didn't I film that? Anyway, at the end of the call, Dominique and I cut each other like look and knew Stephy was "The One".
We scheduled our Engagement shoot and because we live in Los Angeles and Stephy lives in San Diego we had no clue where we wanted to take photos. We told Stephy we'd come down to San Diego and she picked the spot for us!
I was sooo nervous the day of the Engagement shoot just because... well I'm not a model. But Stephy brought it out of me and made me feel comfortable. Our pictures came out amazing! She listened to what angles we liked/didn't like. She let us take a few silly photos and a couple by ourselves. Stephy - I climbed boulders for you. lol.
Stephy even recommended (and we hired) a videographer and showed us some amazing Officiants we could choose from. She's got connections!!!!
Our wedding is nearing around the corner next month and Stephy has genuinely given my fiance and I a sense of confidence and ease with our wedding day.
When you book her - you will think of her in every decision. For example, I'm going to love when she snaps a picture of our cake and people's reaction (can't give this away yet), and I'm going to love her pictures of us with the rose wall behind our table, etc.
She was right from the beginning- "You can't go Wong with Stephy"
Thank you Stephy.

Stephy was a great photographer to work with! She was very responsive, ever since the initial reach out to inquire about her. You never had to wait long to hear from her. My husband and I had never taken any professional photos before, but she made everything very easy and made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. She knows how to make jokes to make us laugh! She is so funny and positive, and keeps the attitude light yet professional. Her price point is great and she delivers an amazing quality of work.. We will definitely use her for our professional photographing needs in the future.
Where do I begin? Let me start by saying this....your search for a wedding photographer is over. Stephy is the photographer you've been dreaming about since you were a little kid. She has an eye for this stuff and lots of creativity. Did I mention she is hilarious? Because she is. She maintains professionalism but also makes you feel like you've known her since the day you were born. If you're nervous about getting your photo taken or maybe you're fiancé does not understand how important save-the-date photos are as well as wedding photos, Stephy is the one. Or if you have had your entire wedding planned out prior to getting that gorgeous ring (like me) ? Stephy can handle that too. She was honestly my favorite vendor to work with and I have recommended her to friends who have since booked her because she is that amazing. She did so well on our wedding photos that she is now our photographer for life! If I still haven't sold you yet...here are some more reasons to love stephy wong and her magical camera skills:
1) She knows weddings. She's experienced. She knows all the little things that you're planner should know but doesn't. She understands the entire picture (hehe get it).
2) her prices are SO reasonable for the quality you'll receive. From my personal experience iwth planning a wedding and being in lots of weddings, you get waaaay more bang for your buck with stephy than a lot of other wedding photographers these days. If you're still worried about price, just remember that photography is almost as important as the person you're marrying (in my opinion) and Stephy is worth every penny.
3. Our wedding was in June and I STILL have people telling me how great my photos are. No kidding.
4. She loves cake and you can always trust someone who loves cake, let's be real.
5. She will give you her phone number and she always responds to my text within minutes. No question is too silly for her. It is your day and it must be perfect and she knows this.
6. Her assistants are just as cool as she is and you will get the perfect shot for every event during your big day. I cannot tell you enough how cool it was to have two photographers.
7. She'll stay in touch. This is something that I found very nice and equally as important. She doesn't just take your photos and never hear from her again. She'll stay in contact and make you feel like the very special client that you are.
8. TEASERS PEOPLE. She gives you next-day photo teasers while you're still on the wedding high from the previous night. It is one thing to have photos that your grandma took on her new iphone, but having perfectly edited photos half a day later is soooo much better and your family will love you for it.
So as you can probably tell, I love Stephy Wong photo. She is amazing and I hope you choose her to shoot your special day.
Organized, on time, patient, and professional while also lighthearted to get some personality out of us! Stephy is the best, don't waste your time with anyone else. She makes being photographed as unscary as it possibly can be if you're not too fond of being in front of the camera. Especially after dealing with other wedding service providers/vendors, it really highlights and solidifies Stephy's level of professionalism, quality, and responsiveness. Responsiveness!!! How valuable that is when you're trying to get all the details down of one of the most important days of your life. She has made this process as easy as it can possibly be. Seriously, don't waste your time with anyone else. It's refreshing how on top of her game Stephy is. Worth every single penny.
