Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Before moving to America, I was a newspaper photographer covering local stories and sports, managed a portrait studio, and traveled the world. A lifelong photographer, I've spent an unhealthy amount of time in darkrooms developing rolls of film and learning from amazing mentors.

Omg cannot recommend enough! My now husband and I had an elope-y wedding so we had to find a really good photographer really quickly-I stumbled across Philip's page and was immediately drawn to the style and skill of his work. Unfortunately I read on his page that he was full booked for the season. I decided to take my chances and reach out anyways juuust in case he would be available on our wedding day (3 weeks away at that point). I was elated to hear back quickly that he happened to available that day!! We had an introductory zoom call a few days later and had the contract signed by the end of that week. Philip was such a pleasure to work with! We got our final photos sent to us a couple days ago and they blew us away-the lighting, his expertise, and his creative touch made for such awesome and unexpected shots. 10/10. Thank you Philip!!

We can’t say enough good things about them! From the start, they felt like part of the crew, super chill, easy to work with, and just fun to be around. On the big day, they somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling like they were in the way. They caught all the laughs, happy tears, and little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. And when we saw the photos/video? Absolutely blown away. It’s like they bottled up the whole feeling of the day, and now we get to relive it forever.

I'm Stephanie Renae, you can call me Steph :) I was born and raised in Miami, FL and most of my family still resides in Colombia. I will never say no to a coffee date, or a cookie date... or anything that gets us talking and laughing. Whenever I look over my bedside table and see my partner and I hugging, brimming from cheek to cheek in our couples "Ron Swanson & Hamburger" costume for Halloween, all the laughter and jokes come rushing back in. It feels supernatural, the closest thing we have to teleportation. & this is why I feel so incredibly honored to give this little piece of magic to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiance and I have never had pictures before, except those awkward family photos most people had growing up. Stephanie and I met virtually after I saw her work and immediately I felt comfortable, seen, validated, and most of all...I trusted her. She seemed confident in taking pictures to capture a date (as she lovingly put it.."act as though it's a normal date but you have paparazzi") and made us feel comfortable-we didn't have to put on a show to get amazing pictures. Upon meeting at Enchanted Rock, she gave us a sweet speech about acting like she wasn't there unless she gave us directives- my fiance loved the directives, he's good at following those- and every single picture made it clear why she is pursuing a career in photography. There were even times when Stephanie would step back after a picture and smile, like she KNEW she had taken a great photograph. We are so excited to have these hanging in our home soon as we start building a "how it started and how it's going wall" in our home. When pictures are wanted in the future, I know who I am going to call-and you should too! Thanks again Stephanie, for the pictures, but also for bringing your laugh, business mindset, friendliness, and compassion to picture day. P.S.: if I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would.
