Here's what my wonderful clients have to say!
Jenna & Zack's
STEPH IS AMAZING! We loved working with Steph! She is so fun, creative, and she helps you feel at ease. The photos turned out so beautifully and she perfectly captured the day. After the wedding, Steph gave us sneak peeks to keep our wedding vibes high. She also gave us access to the wedding album in a great turnaround time and a really easy platform to view, download, buy, and share. Thank you Steph. We are so happy to have chosen you as our photographer!! We highly recommend Shines Photography!
MEG & SEAN
Steph handled both our engagement photos and wedding photos and did an amazing job. I had concerns about feeling comfortable in front of the camera and her low-key demeanor really put us at ease. She helped with some posing and framing of shots but overall kept things feeling really genuine and the photos reflect that - real smiles, real expressions. The pictures are gorgeous and capture things as they are which is exactly what we wanted. Communication was quick and easy, we even had to reschedule our engagement shoot to an entirely new location after all the smoke in Tahoe last year and Steph made it work no problem. Can't recommend enough!
EDDIE & EMILY
Steph was amazing and we love our wedding photos! Working with Steph was wonderful and she got beautiful pictures of us. She really captured the beautiful outdoor area where we got married, she was the perfect photography for the in the Truckee/Tahoe area. She also got so many unique pictures that we didn't even ask her to shoot. We highly recommend Steph!
CARRIE & NATE
Steph is the best!! We had the pleasure of working with Steph for our engagement photos and wedding. She helped capture all of the beautiful moments and people on the happiest day of our lives. She is so talented - we couldn't have gone with a better photographer. We particularly love that during both sessions she encouraged us to be ourselves and relax rather than doing lots of planned poses. We highly recommend Steph, you will absolutely love her too!
Imagine walking in the sunshine, feeling the warmth on your skin, letting it naturally glow you up, and without having to try, you feel better. That’s what Shines is like: Photography that guides like the sun.
Shines specializes in capturing the rebel within and how that looks for - YOU. Whether it's a special moment on your wedding day or a fiery FEMPOWERMENT session, I strive to bring out the raw, unfiltered beautiful essence of every human I photograph.
