Hey! I am so happy you’re here! I’m Stephanie, the owner and lead photographer of StephGBLove. I offer full day and custom wedding packages curated to your day. I like to learn about my couple’s personalities and love story to curate images that capture their uniqueness. If you think you are not photogenic, check out any of my work and about 90% of my clients think the same thing. And then they see their photos and love them! It’s all about a great experience and getting you two to show your love for one another. Some fun facts about me are, I am a dog & cat mom, metalhead, a girlfriend and avid rom-com watcher. And I can’t wait to meet you!

Steph photographed my husband and I’s wedding about a year ago from now. We were blown away with the results! She captured everything we requested. She had someone else there to assist as a second photographer as well. Steph worked with us within our budget, and delivered results within a timely manner. We have an online portfolio that we visit often to remind us of our beautiful day. I definitely recommend choosing her for your wedding/photography session!

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning. We cannot believe how many and how incredible each and every photo is. We cannot recommend Shawnee enough!

On Sundays during football season, you can find us in our living room eating homemade wings and cheering on the Cowboys and yelling at the refs because let's face it, any call against Dallas is wrong. LOL, We have four wonderful children; one boy and three girls. If we aren't cheering my kids on in their sports or activities, Lauren is usually making homemade cupcakes or a new dish for my family and friends. We love meeting new friends we haven't met yet through photography and it's a blast hanging with those friends we have. At Shutter & Snap, we want to tell your story, while also being fun!

My husband and I had our 10 year vow renewal and hired steve and lauren. They were prompt and early. They spoke with us and devoted their time into taking pictures that meant the most to us. We are more in the moment memory pictures and they completely nailed it. Not only did they capture true memories they were also very patient with our two young kids who can be quite difficult at times and were able to get them to react for photos. Lauren and Steve were more than just photographers for us they were so easy to work with and talk too. I could have not hoped for a better outcome. We plan to use them for all our other photo needs as well and highly recommend them for anyone in the surrounding area

Elizabeth Russell Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Clayton, DE

I began my photography career over 15 years ago as a photographer for a Natural History Museum. There I learned to be versatile and to shoot anything from galleries, portraits, events to fossils and fieldwork. Just like the museum, weddings also call for a versatile photographer to catch great details, ceremony and reception spaces, portraits and events. But with my wedding photography, I push for more. Inspired by photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, I follow the light and seek decisive moments—emotion and reactions.

Liz photographed our wedding this spring and we’re absolutely obsessed with the photos. She captured so many sweet organic moments of our love and with our guests, and she has such a great eye for color. Our wedding was bright and colorful out in nature, and everything just pops so well in the photos while still looking really natural. Liz was so kind and helpful and easy to work with the whole time. Highly recommend working with her for your wedding!

Ralph Deal Photography

My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Wedding photography is more than just images, it’s the story of your day that will be told for generations to come. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. I will provide you with the BEST wedding day experience possible!

Awarded Best of Zola
We could not have hired a better photographer for our wedding than Ralph. We have countless photos that we can use in our home and are thrilled to look back on to remember our wedding day. The day moves so quickly but Ralph did an incredible job capturing the moments throughout the day so we can re-live the emotions, setting, and all the love that filled the occasion. Ralph's process of getting to know us through the planning meetings and engagement session was more detailed and fun than expected. He wanted to get to know us. The level of effort that Ralph pours into his work mirrored the level of effort that we felt we were putting into the wedding day as a whole, which we were thrilled with. The post-wedding meeting is a great experience as well as Ralph allowed us to walk back through the day and choose the layout for our wedding album in-person in a theater-like setting. Working with Ralph to capture the irreplaceable moments on the most important day in our lives was the best choice we could have made!

I like to take a natural approach to photographing weddings with a mix of being inconspicuous but also there to help direct when needed. My goal is to have it feel like I’m another friend celebrating the day with you that happens to make the wedding run smoothly and takes beautiful photographs. I love spending the day laughing and smiling together as you marry your best friend.

Sophie is inspired by fashion, art, light, emotions, relationships, travel, and the unexpected. She acquired her first camera at 14 years old and has been photographing professionally for over 12 years now. She is a Philadelphia and New Jersey based wedding, portrait, and branding photographer, available for local and destination projects.

So happy we booked Sophie for our engagement and wedding photos! Not only was she responsive to all of our questions, but she offered insights and ideas each step of the way. She consistently considered our wants and needs, exceeding our expectations before, during, and even after our big day. To say we were pleased (with the process and the finished products) would be an understatement!

  • Serves Clayton, DE

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My search for a wedding photographer was pretty much a full time job. In fact, it was harder finding a wedding photographer than it was finding a man I wanted to marry. After spending hours and hours searching for the perfect wedding photographer, a google search found me Katie and I knew I had to work with her. From day 1 she was so easy to work with and was willing to work with me on my budget. I was extremely particular when it came to my photos and from the engagement photos to the wedding photos, she really hit it out of the park without me having to describe every little thing. The photos invoked the emotion/feeling I wanted from them and I particularly was wowed by her black and white photos. She clearly knows what she's doing and was able to work efficiently and work around a ton of sudden changes. I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day and really valued her calm, peaceful demeanor. She truly has an extraordinary style and eye for photography and she's my #1 recommendation for brides looking for timeless wedding photos that transcend what's trending today. We've since worked with her for family photos and she wowed us once again. Honestly I'd have her photograph every momentous occasion of my life if I could. If you go through her portfolio you'll see all different styles of weddings but each photo is stunning. God forbid if I ever have another wedding, partnering with Katie is a no-brainer.

I am a lover of all things Disney and dogs !! On a Friday night you can usually find me on the couch with a bowl of popcorn watching the latest Netflix movie release. I have a degree in Accounting and Finance but photography is my creative escape! I live for a glowy sunset (fully expect me to ask to steal you away on wedding day to get sunset portraits) and capturing the love two people share.

Lindsay was phenomenal to work with! She brought the BEST energy the day of my wedding and was the real MVP when it came to shooting outside in the cold rainy weather. My father in law was a wedding photographer for 20 years and said he was so impressed with her presence and thoughtfulness in the moments she caught.

I just want you to know that I' believe in magic. I also believe in cherishing every beautiful, fleeting tick of time. While portraits are wonderful in their own way, my favorite photos are always the candids. The precious moments between moments. That, my friend, is where the magic lives. I see the glances that mean so much more than they seem, and so does my lens. I am so eternally grateful to get to spend my life cherishing those beautiful moments with you. xoxo Debbie

Lucky Thirteen was the first and only photography vendor we looked into for our wedding, and knew instantly we wanted them to be a part of our day! Deb is so much fun to work with, and let us do whatever crazy ideas we wanted as well as helping us brainstorm new ones. Me and my husband don’t like being in front of the camera, but Deb was so chill and easy to work with and made us feel so relaxed. Our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out amazing!!

Your world collided with ours because you are marrying the love of your life and now you need someone to document it in a way that will last for generations to come! We want your timeless memories to be shown to kids, then grandkids, and their kids and so on! The family tree is growing and we love being a part of that! We are suckers for the groom's face when he first sees his bride, for the dads trying to hold back tears, for the moments that make the wedding day the best day ever!

If you are looking for a wedding photographer that will provide you with THE BEST magazine quality pictures, look no farther! After canceling our wedding 2 times due to Covid, Matt & I discussed the possibility of eloping to Jackson Hole, WY. I knew that Bob & Jamie have visited there enough to claim it as their 2nd home (lol) so I reached out for some advice/recommendations regarding the area & eloping. They not only offered a ton of knowledge about Jackson, they said they were available to travel and shoot our wedding. We booked them right away!!! They helped Matt & I EVERY step of the way. I said I wanted to be married inside in front of a large stone fireplace and have pictures taken outside with the snow covered mountains afterwards. They immediately went to work searching for hotels with stone fireplaces & locations (yes, multiple) for scenic wedding photos. Once those decisions were made, they helped select a restaurant for wedding dinner and plan our excursions. Bob even offered to be the tour guide for our snowmobile trip to Granite Hot Springs. These two went way above and beyond wedding photographers! Our wedding day was truly a dream come true (Hallmark movie worthy) and I can’t thank Jamie enough for capturing every part of it. She left no stone unturned. When we received the preview pics, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. The photos were even better than I had hoped. She made us look like we were on a magazine cover! Northern Lights Photography was part of what made our elopement special
