let's plan the session you deserve
As a near decade’s long Coloradan, I simply can’t wait to share with you the people, places, and experiences that make this state so special.
I eloped while in law school, leading me to realize how demanding wedding planning can be while juggling a full schedule. This experience ignited my passion for helping couples navigate a stress-free route to "I do," while still capturing every moment along the way.
From location ideas to personalized styling recommendations, I’ll take care of the logistics so you can enjoy your photo session care-free. While couples appreciate my “Type A” organizational skills, my real superpower is being the intuitive and empathic camera-wielding sidekick you had no idea you were missing.

5-star reviews from my happy couples
"wonderful"
"Stephanie was wonderful to work with for our engagement pics! She communicated well before the session date and the day of the session. She had great recommendations for locations as well. Stephanie was so easy to work with and we’d book her for our next needed session anytime! We’re in love with our pics. They’re stunning!!!"
- Lindsey + Jared
"Stephanie is AMAZING! She’s very insightful on things like shooting location and being able to capture what our vision was. The entire process was fun, easy and we couldn’t recommend her enough! If you’re looking for someone to capture a special moment, book her right away. Everything felt natural from pre-shoot conversations and communication to early sneak peeks of our shoot!"
- Doan + Nate
"book her right away"
"cannot be happier"
"I cannot recommend Stephanie more. From the very beginning of booking with her she was extremely professional and personable. We cannot be happier with how our entire experience went. With us being from out of state, her location recommendations were crucial and she knocked it out of the park."
- Sabrina + Ashley

FAQ'S
Your most asked questions answered...
Most couples book between 2 and 6 months ahead of time. However, it’s always best to book your session as early as possible, especially if you have a specific date in mind or are planning your session for a popular summer or fall date. Not only does booking early ensure you secure your preferred date, but it also allows you to take full advantage of my customized planning services.
No worries! Few couples who inquire with me know their session date or location. As we start planning together, I'll guide you to a date that aligns with your needs and a location that aligns with your vision. If you can dream it, we can create it.
Absolutely! I can scout the perfect location for you to pop the question and share ideas for your post-proposal celebration. Come the big moment, you can expect to find me hiding in a bush or posing as a landscape photographer to keep from spoiling the surprise.
I’ve got you, friend. I know that being in front of the camera can be a vulnerable experience, which is why I’ll be there to ground you and guide you throughout your session.
But, truth be told, how your photos look has nothing to do with your experience in front of the camera and everything to do with being yourself. For the best photos, show up as your truest self and don’t be afraid to wear your heart on your sleeve. You're worthy of unforgettable photos exactly as you are.
Nope! Colorado has no shortage of hike-free and even ADA-accessible locations for your session. While hiking to a more remote location generally offers greater privacy, you can also avoid the crowds at popular locations by planning a weekday or early morning session.
Absolutely! Colorado has no shortage of dog-friendly locations. However, I always recommend bringing an additional person along to give your dog a needed break from being in the spotlight. Many pups can become overstimulated from a full hour of photos.
100%. Love is love, and I support any two humans lucky enough to find it – no matter your gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, shape, size, or ability. I believe that all love deserves recognition and celebration, and, when working with me, you can always expect a supportive and affirming environment.
Yes, I carry business insurance and can provide proof of insurance to any Airbnb host, park, or venue that requests it.
