One In A Million! Pictures To Last A Lifetime X

THE BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER ANY COUPLE COULD ASK FOR! Steph we cant thankyou enough for being incredible in every way! Thankyou so much for bringing all the small and big details back to life for us in all the incredible photos you captured of our big day. We will forever be grateful to you for giving us those memories to cherish forever. We would highly recommend Steph to any couple looking to get married if they want a photographer who is relaxed around them and gets the best pictures by only the simpliest of ques to get that perfect image. Steph takes her time getting to know you before the big day and getting to know how you are with the camera so that she can optimise this on the big day. Steph was brilliant at accomodating any photo requests we had and even on the hottest day of the year she kept smiling, laughing and shooting pics all day long. From the bottom of our hearts thankyou soo much Steph. Your incredible. Charlotte & Joe x

5 Stars isn't enough!! Best wedding photographer ever!

We spent such a long time researching and trying to find the perfect wedding photographer and it was quickly evident that trusting someone with immortalising such an important day is quite a big deal.
As such, we were so happy to find Steph. Her candid, joyful photographs were exactly what we were looking for. We knew we'd hit the jackpot when we saw our engagement shoot photos and neither of us were quite able to believe that she could top it when our wedding photos came through.
WOW is a perfect descriptor for Steph's photography. It's cinematic, full of happiness and you captured the heart and soul of our wedding day. Her talent shines through every photo, each composition, lighting, and style looks so effortlessly crafted. It's so abundantly clear how much she cared about capturing the essence of us and the day.
Every one of our family and friends has commented on just how phenomenal our wedding photos are - even people at work who follow me on Instagram have made the effort to tell me!
She put us and our guests at ease from the outset, she really understood what we wanted from our photography and was kind enough to remember my good side haha! Steph made the whole process from the first communication to post-wedding easy and run seamlessly.
Steph is the friendliest, most diligent person as well as the most talented photographer, and we're so thankful and grateful to her for capturing our most important day so effortlessly.
We would recommend Steph in a heartbeat. To any prospective brides and grooms - choose Steph!! You'd be very silly not to. We had the absolute best experience, and now have the most incredible photos to cherish forever. You will be absolutely blown away!

Steph is an absolutely fantastic wedding photographer, along with being a really lovely person to have with you on your wedding day. Her photos are stunning - we LOVED ours - and she's very relaxed and good at communicating about what she'd like you to do. She'd be a wonderful choice for your wedding. Thank you so much Steph for taking photos that we'll treasure for the rest of our lives! Olivia and James xx

Calm, considered, all round wonderful photographer!

We are so glad we chose Steph as our wedding photographer. She was absolutely excellent - the photos are beautiful, everything was captured to perfection, and honestly we barely noticed her taking half of them during the ceremony, reception, and party! Steph has a wonderful way of putting you at ease and I felt very reassured to have her calm presence (and useful bridal tips!!) by my side as I was getting ready for the day. With Steph as our photographer, we truly had nothing to worry about!

Stunning photos, highly recommend!

Steph was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire experience! She was SO easy to communicate with, always sending such prompt responses to any queries. During the wedding day she was amazing, taking really candid, natural photos of us and our guests. She gave brilliant direction during the group shots, making everyone feel comfortable and not awkward (which is very hard to achieve!) The pictures were beyond anything we could have imagined, and truly captured the essence of our day. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Perfect photographer!

We cannot thank Steph enough for the photos she took on our wedding day. They are absolutely beautiful and capture all the emotion from the day. Steph made us both feel extremely relaxed and at ease and her style is such that she went unnoticed throughout the day. Steph is highly skilled and her quick turn around let us relive our day all over again. 100% recommend. Thanks again Steph!

The BEST photographer we could've asked for

We reached out to Steph after our two Miami-based weddings were postponed, and then eventually canceled due to the pandemic. Straight from our first meeting, I knew Steph would be a good fit for us - she was easy-going, self-deprecating, and just incredibly likable - all qualities we wanted in the person who would spend most of our wedding day with us.

We had our engagement shoot just days before the wedding, and despite not knowing the area, we ended up with some stellar shots. We'd previously had two different photographers in the US do engagement shoots for us, and neither had done as good a job as Steph.

Then when the big day arrived, Steph was the picture of calm, and professionalism. She made our guests, and family smile - and got the most gorgeous shots of both of us. She turned around our sneak peeks in just a day or so, and we knew instantly all of our photos were going to be perfect. Steph is brilliant - and I would implore anyone to hire her for their wedding day.

5 Stars all round!

Steph was totally amazing - we really can’t thank her enough! Her photography was beautifully natural and I literally didn’t even notice her taking the photos, but she captured the joy, love and fun of our day perfectly. I think there’s a photo of every single guest either laughing or crying or a bit of both - totally invaluable memories! She also went above and beyond on the day: she was so supportive in the morning and was discreetly there for us to check-in or laugh with throughout the day. We are so glad we found her - my brother has actually already booked her in for next summer! If we ever do a vow renewal or baby shower or anything, we are booking Steph!

Natural and Professional- 100% recommend

Steph fitted in well with guests. Nothing was too much trouble when asked and she put my husband at ease straight away (who is shy with photos). We loved the pictures, so had great difficulty trying to pick our favourite. Everyone has given positive comments looking at the final pictures. These were very natural and professional. We were very impressed by the speed of delivery of the sneak peaks, then slideshow/gallery. I would 100% recommend Steph.
