51 On summer evenings I’d spend hours in my parents’ backyard with a disposable camera, trying to photograph my mom’s garden bed of marigolds at just the right angle. I knew that the heat would eventually wilt them, but thought if I could capture in a photo the way the red and yellow hues played together on their petals, maybe it would help the summer days last a little bit longerWedding days are full of tiny blink-and-miss-it moments that share so much, and while photographing over 200 weddings in the past 10 years, I’ve learned that it’s these moments that make one wedding day so different and so precious from the next. It’s the sweetest honor to be able to preserve those small but mighty moments for you forever..

Steph is an absolute joy to work with! The moment I saw her work on her website, I knew Steph had the vision and vibe we wanted for our wedding. Every call we had with her was easy and fun, and that's exactly how I'd describe our wedding day, too. Steph has a keen intuition; she knows exactly how to make you smile, laugh, and pose (I'll never forget my now-husband softly whispering "bacon" into my ear based on one of Steph's prompts), yet also knows when to give you private moments alone to simply soak in the experience of your wedding day.
And, of course, her photos are amazing! We continue to be awestruck by Steph's ability to fully capture all of the love, joy, and moments both silly and serious we experienced throughout the day. I highly recommend hiring Stephanie Dee Photography for your wedding!

Steph took our engagement photos and was amazing!! She is so kind, funny, and genuine, it's easy to feel at ease with her. She was great at giving us direction and making the session fun and silly. I can't wait to see the result!
Steph doesn't just capture beautiful photos, she makes your entire wedding day calmer, more enjoyable, and more fun. Steph absolutely goes above and beyond, and she doesn't so because she genuinely wants you to have a fantastic wedding day- not just as related to your photos. She is extremely proactive, organized, and responsive, and thinks about the bigger picture of your timeline and event flow in general as well. Steph even went in person to the Jefferson Memorial before our wedding day to ensure that construction wouldn't be a problem for our bridal party, and once she realized it wasn't an ideal setting she took care of finding a new location for our bridal party photos the morning of the wedding without having to even get me involved. No stress, all calm, such a pro. She even made sure all the right bags were packed for the bus, and put in the right place, and took care of all the logistical details when our planner wasn't with us. She kept our family photos efficient too, we didn't lose a minute of time. Steph sent us sneak peaks of our photos the next MORNING which was the most pleasant surprise of all after waking up on Sunday before we left for our honeymoon. The photos are full of love and joy, and she was truly our favorite vendor we worked with on our wedding day. All of my friends and family asked for Steph's info and kept bringing up what an asset she was to our day. If you want to hire someone who isn't just in it for the gram but who is in this business to make YOU her top priority, Steph is your gal! 10/10 Recommend.
Stephanie is someone every bride would want at their wedding. Not only does she capture those random unforgettable candid moments, she is a JOY to have around especially on a day as full of excitement as your wedding day. She is someone that you would want to be friends with even after your wedding. Her caring attitude really comes through, from the initial introduction to her follow up emails and texts to the last details of your wedding. She is 100% A+ champ at what she does and just an amazing human being as well. Well worth the cost, she goes out of her way to follow up on details to make capture the most 'you' of your day. With out a doubt the best of the best.
We had a wonderful experience with Stephanie! So many people told me that you not only want a photographer that gets amazing shots, but you also want someone who you actually like because you will be spending a lot of time with them during the wedding day. I felt so incredibly lucky that we were obsessed with our photos, but also that we loved Stephanie! She was easy going, had a good sense of humor among the chaos, was completely on her game with timing, and captured what we were looking for. I had to fight with my now husband to snag her because she was slightly over our budget, and I am SO happy I did. She's the best!
Steph was an absolute JOY to work with! We were thrilled with both the wedding photos we got from her, and even more importantly how fun and easy she was to work with on our wedding day. With so many things going on that day and how personal things can get with your photographer, it's important to have someone that makes you and your partner (and your family and wedding party!) feel relaxed and normal -- and Steph was perfect at doing just that, which we felt came through in our photos. We love looking through the photos and reliving the day. We also liked her photo style of trying to catch genuine, natural moments instead of being too posed or stuffy. THANK YOU STEPH!
Steph is truly an amazing photographer and person. She really strives to make sure everything is picture perfect. Steph was quick to respond and answered my multitude of questions. She is also very organized. She captured our day from start to finish and kept us on a timeline. She made the day ran smoothly. She was also engaging and made sure the bridal party had fun! We are so happy to have had her as our photographer and will cherish these photos forever.
Stephanie is absolutely incredible. We are so lucky to have had her shoot our wedding! Due to me and my husbands busy schedule, we met her for the first time on our wedding day! It felt like we had known her for years. She is an instant friend. Stephanie is high energy, professional, flexible and is exactly the person you need on your wedding day. The day of our wedding was sunny...but windy and freezing cold! She was so quick and made sure we were always comfortable and kept us moving/laughing all while getting awesome shots! Throughout the night, days/weeks following, we got endless compliments on Stephanie. You will not be disappointed!
