Michigan Elopement and Wedding Photographer in Grand Rapids

Hey, i'm steph!

A Michigan based wedding and elopement photographer. Currently capturing adventurous lovers in Michigan.

More than my passion for beautiful photos is my passion for people & their stories. I’m about breaking the rules and throwing out the things you’re “supposed to do” in exchange of doing the things are true to you, whether that’s getting married at a beautiful venue or hanging out in your backyard or hiking up Sleeping Bear! I love the little moments that come with big feelings, because your day should be about you & your loved ones and not awkward poses and uncomfortable smiles. I’m beyond inspired by this beautiful planet of ours, new experiences, laughter, and couples who love each other and life’s wild adventures.

Where to begin? Steph takes photography beyond the ordinary and infuses every session with genuine friendship. When choosing our photographer for our wedding day (and engagement photos), I knew without question that Steph would be the perfect fit. Her photos are a mix of romantic, moody, earthy perfection and she had such a unique way of capturing the essence of our relationship in every photo. I love having something so special to look back on to remember the small moments of our wedding day. I will continue to hire Steph for every photography need I have, even though we live states apart! You truly cannot go wrong by hiring Steph – she will become one of your very best friends while you’re at it.

Steph is truly an amazing artist we are so happy we chose her to photograph our wedding. The photography was very important to me and I was very picky with what I wanted. I looked through what felt like hundreds of potential photographers until I found Steph. Her style is laid back which was perfect for us. She made sure to capture all our moments without having us stop and “pose” which made our pictures so genuine and real. We are not a couple who takes a lot of pictures but Steph made us feel so comfortable and our pictures reflected that. Steph was also super organized and responsive to all my questions; overall she was jut wonderful to work with! I cannot emphasize how happy we are that she was our photographer!

Steph was absolutely incredible. Other wedding photographers use your wedding day as any other business day... they’ll take some photos, touch up a couple, and post the rest on their blog to gain likes.

Steph makes everything personal and authentic. You can always get in touch with her, and she gave us a USB of all of our wedding photos much to the delight of our families.

Her style is elegant, and you can truly tell she loves doing her job.

Plus she’s super affordable for the quality of pictures! She’s as best as anyone you will find for the job. She also brought on an assistant photographer for our wedding who was just as incredible, courteous, and professional.

My wife and I highly, highly, highly recommend her as your photographer for your big day.

I can’t even begin to say enough good things about Steph! She was an absolute joy to work with on the day of the wedding (and all of our correspondences prior!) She is so down-to-earth, kind and most importantly - an amazing, gifted photographer! Steph perfectly captured all of our beautiful moments and delivered the most stunning, authentic photos. We relive each and every moment every time we look at our pictures. Throughout the wedding planning process, I was unsure if I picked the right venue, if my vision would come out exactly as I wanted, etc. The one thing I had no question about was Steph. She made me feel at ease the entire process and I fell more and more in love with her work with each passing photo. She is truly the best! You will not be disappointed!
