it is the moment that counts.

for me the real photos are not the ones with lots of posing and cheesy smiles - the real ones are the natural ones. from deep inside. the spontaneous smile. the laughter. the tears. the joy. the fun. a wedding is a spectrum of emotions and feelings and they are uniquely expressed.

it is always an honour to be given the opportunity to be the photographer at a wedding and to make a creative contribution to such a special event. a wedding photographer is the person that captures the heartfelt and precious moments of joy that make up your wedding day so that you can keep the memory of them alive in your photographs.

which is exactly what I will do. at the same time being as discreet and in the background so the day remains as it should be - yours. I believe that the little things in life are quite often the big ones. I take these pictures when everyone else is involved in the moment.

you can recognize my style by the detailed photographs of you and your guests and of each chapter of your wedding day. the emotions and spontaneity. there are no cheesy shots - just real photos of real people. photographs that capture the energy of the moment.

“Rich and I both have said you are a true artist at what you do...”
Evette and Richard, NZ

“Stephanie did an outstanding job. Most of the time she was almost invisible. Altogether we got an incredible set of memories and love to browse through our pictures. We can only recommend using her services for your wedding.” Stefanie and Bastian, USA

after the wedding the photo negatives will be yours copied on a CD. because you have employed me to take beautiful photographs - not to keep them.

if you are looking for a wedding photographer who has the gift to capture the depth and lightness of your wedding day, the joy and bliss, the tears and laughter, the fun and love, the personalities of you and your guests - then contact me for more details.
