Oh Hey! I’m Stephanie!

Photographer. Business Owner. Christian.

Hello! I'm Stephanie, the heart and mind behind Emerald Photography LLC. My love for photography started at an early age, but it truly took shape when I was just 15 years old. I still remember the excitement of that day, my mother driving me to my very first wedding shoot, camera in hand and a heart full of passion. That moment sparked something in me, a deep appreciation for capturing love stories in their most genuine and heartfelt form.

Now, with over 15 years of experience, I've had the privilege of documenting countless weddings, engagements, and portraits, each one as unique and meaningful as the people in them. Photography isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about preserving emotions, telling stories, and creating timeless memories that you can hold onto forever. My goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free experience while crafting images that reflect the beauty of your most cherished moments.
