She has so many good ideas as to posing so she would guide me and my husband to pose so it was good that we were able to try different poses. She always showed about 20 mins earlier than the time of the photo shoots and tested lighting etc. The photos turned out exactly how I wanted for my newborn photo shoot, she brought some props such as a nice basket/crib and some cushions etc. When I was pregnant, my belly was not showing too much so I waited till the last minute to book her but everything worked out so well on the day of thanks to Stephanie being so organized. She responded to my messages in a timely manner, quickly set up a meeting to go over the details of the photo shoots and she even created a Pinterest board for me to share ideas. Not only she's a good photographer, but also she is very organized. She is nothing but amazing!! I highly recommend her especially for those who live in the Southbay area. "I wanted to get my maternity and newborn photos taken so I reached out to Stephanie. I never ever leave reviews so I am not sure this is right way or I wrote too much, But just want to say this I strongly recommend Stephanie !! We will take photos with Stephanie every year to celebrate for my kids birthday, different location and time, I will try sunrise time next year! I ordered more photos and even 12 x 18 inch prints :) After that, once I received all final version, all procedure was explained very detail, easy to follow the steps. She just kept doing and seized the moments. It is really beautiful, warm torn and golden mood, I love that! And all photos look really natural! We took photo at El segundo beach, sunset time. On the shoot day, it was super windy, but we captured each moments for our family and her husband Bryan made my kids feel comfortable and make happy mood at all the times!! I told her my stories and she took a memo, we made amazing final version!

I found Stephanie and just book right away, when we had initial zoom meeting at the beginning, she was really asking me detail what concept do I want, what kind of mood. "I am so happy to have amazing family photos in 2022, my both kids birthday is in April, so I was thinking want to do memorable gift for them. I can’t wait to be at their wedding, and hear what their vows will be for each other!

We all grow to learn about ourselves and our loved ones through ways and situations that can be unexpected and unforeseeable. Their journey together may have taken some twists and turns, but it is life. Every couple’s story is unique, it is no different for these two. Tatiana and Chris both wear great smiles on them, and they are a really easy going couple to shoot with. Stay tuned for that upcoming post, because we will be headed to Hidden Valley Golf Club in Norco, California, to celebrate and document their special day together as they walk down the aisle. My whole team was able to get down there to capture this beautiful session for Tatiana and Chris, before they tie their knot in November. This little gem in Newport Beach is a beautiful place to shoot at, especially when dogs are allowed after a certain time. At an event like that, it wasn’t easy to connect with every individuals, but I am so happy we finally get to know the couple over this engagement session we have recently done at Little Corona del Mar Beach. I first met this pair of lovebirds at an event I shot for their pastor’s birthday, here’s a post to it.
