Meet Your Photographer
Hi, Im Steph!
I was born and raised in Wallingford, CT and now live in Branford, CT with fiancè Rob! We have been together since July 2016 and at 17 and 19 I don't think either of us knew we had found our forever person, but here we are! Happy as ever, living in our cute apartment on the shoreline of CT (now to convince him to adopt a kitten).
We got engaged December 21st, 2024 in Newport, RI (our favorite place ever)! I am now planning my own wedding, and lets just say that I have a whole new respect for past, present and future brides. I can talk about photography all day but there are so many other aspects to a wedding day to make it come to life! It is a stressful process, but I always keep it real here at Stephanie Nicole Photography. If I can take a little stress away, I always will!
Coastal granddaughter? Thats me. Linen pants, cute sandals, reading a book in the sand and lots of blue hydrangeas. Although I grew up in central CT I have always loved the shoreline. You will NEVER catch me in the water though. I've watched too much Shark Week to know what can come up and eat me from the bottom of the ocean HAHA
My clients are my muse
Growing up with a camera in my hand, photographing my loved ones, the outdoors, and taking my “selfies” in the mirror. To then documenting the most incredible moments of people’s lives. From hiding in the bed of my fiancè's truck so I can capture the engagement of a lifetime, to then watch the same two head down the aisle to meet each other for the last time as fiancé and fiancé. I am so lucky to deliver gallery after gallery to couples who love each other more than anything I have ever seen, to couples growing their families and documenting the phases. I am here for all the once in a lifetime moments, and each of the moments in between. I love watching your lives flourish into beautiful moments, that can only be visually remembered with a photograph.

VIEW THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE
Steph was the photographer for my wedding this past September and she was FANTASTIC! It’s been a little over a month since the wedding and we continue to get compliments on her professionalism, vision and talent! For people who aren’t used to being photographed like us, Steph makes it so easy and comfortable that you almost forget your photos are being taken. She’s a pro at rallying big groups of people and the photos come out great every time. She photographed the wedding until 9pm and by midnight we already had about 50 sneak peak photos. The rest of the photos was sent to us about 1-2 weeks earlier than anticipated and was such a nice surprise while we were on our honeymoon. Not to mention there were literally hundreds of them. We look at the photos nearly every day because they’re just so beautiful and captured mine and my husbands day beautifully. We highly highly recommend Steph as a photographer!
