Hello & Welcome
I wholeheartedly believe in the power of authentic documentation. Our stories are not only a gift for ourselves, but also for generations, becoming treasured keepsakes as proof of our place and time. My passion lies in storytelling that focuses on your present moments. Whether our adventures take us deep into the Hudson Valley, high in the Catskill Mountains, or within the comfort of your home, it is always about where you are meant to be and where you feel the most alive.
So I’d like you to think for a minute… What part of your life are you most proud of? Most nostalgic for? What memories do you wish could be preserved forever?
I’m eager to learn about your authentic, one of a kind story, so let’s dive in! I am so happy you are here.

Meet Me
I am a lover of sunrises, a hot cup of tea, and traveling just about anywhere in the world. I am a wife and mama to three amazing and full of life kids. My motherhood adventures inspired my fascination with the family connection, which led me to storytelling portrait photography. I truly believe families are at their best when they are allowed to be natural, organic, and themselves. I put my whole self into the process when you choose me, because I am passionate about giving you authentic and genuine memories that show the true heart of your family.
"Stephanie was incredible to work with! The photos she took of our family were beautiful and magical. We will cherish them forever!"

"One day, all your children will have are pictures of you. Make sure you are in them. No matter what your hair looks like, your makeup, or your body. They won't care about any of that. They'll just want to see you."
Choose Your Adventure
"Stephanie is an amazing photographer and person. She took photos of my son when he was a newborn and we loved her so much we had her take more photos when he turned 1. We will be using her for family photos for all the years to come!" - K.S.

The Importance of Environment In Your Photographs
Environment plays a big role in storytelling photography. Each location I work in has intention and purpose, and helps to further tell the story of your family.
