From my very first camera, I've always had a passion for photography. As a little girl, I daydreamed of having my own big magical darkroom where I could spend hours developing photos and holding my breath just waiting for that breathtaking image to appear. Like many others, my obsession with photography began soon after my children were born.
I wanted to bottle up every single detail of their life. I wanted to take a step back and observe my own life and these ordinary moments through my lens. I always strive to capture moments that make you FEEL something. I have a strong passion for bringing out the heart and soul in imagery. I want you to show you your life and blessings through the eyes of a camera.

When I say "I shoot with film", I'm not referring to using a video camera to capture video. I'm talking about taking a roll of photographic film that you load into a good old film camera (just like your grandparents used) and then have it developed by a lab. Film is a timeless medium. It has this incredible way of capturing light, color, and detail.

Lifestyle family sessions are the key to my heart and are perfect for your family, just as you are.

Interior and branded sessions are all about highlighting you and your services/products. These sessions are curated with your audience in mind and my goal is to help give show your voice through imagery.

Stephanie takes the best pictures!!! She was so positive and made the experience so much better by telling us to let our kids be kids and not worry about them sitting still or smiling. It helped us relax and enjoy the session so much more and our pictures turned out so great! Highly recommend her to others!

I wish I had words to elaborate on HOW GOOD Stephanie truly is...Her energy is like nothing I have ever experienced with a photographer, she instantly makes you feel like family. The way she handles babies and toddlers makes me think she is a real life angel. We have had meltdowns, blow outs, and a husband that hates pictures - and even he loves her sessions. I don't know how to better explain her than to tell you she is a magician that creates memories that I will forever cherish. Almost every time I leave I say "There's no way she got any good ones" -- and every time I am left speechless by the

Great and quick communication, was able to get a newborn shoot scheduled within a week. Stephanie was extremely personable and professional. She really knows her stuff and how to get good angles and pictures. The pictures themselves turned out absolutely wonderful. So glad that we were able to get such important and special pictures taken by Stephanie!

Stephanie is seriously the best photographer in Raleigh! She captured my son's newborn photos and we immediately fell in love with her and knew we had to have her do our daughters photos as soon as she was born! She is so kind and makes you feel super comfortable when taking photos. I cried both times getting my photos back because they were so amazing, she really captures all the little details you never want to forget about your babies. Thank you Stephanie!!

Stephanie is unbelievable! I was fortunate enough to find her on a whim and book a mommy and me session with her. She was so kind and genuine to work with both before, during and after photos. She has an incredible eye for capturing the perfect moments and was amazing with my kids; she was able to get them to laugh and enjoy their time all while snapping away to ensure the perfect pictures. When I got my photos back I was blown away by them, they were so far beyond what I had expected, dreamed of, and hoped for. Stephanie is truly phenomenal and you would be doing yourself a disservice to not allow

Having been lucky enough to use Stephanie Bryan for family pictures over the last few years, I've been struck by how she is able to capture the personality of each person in the picture; she seems to capture the dynamics of our family through her lens; each picture tells the story of what was happening at the exact moment she snaps the photograph. Looking over my pictures, I see the interaction between our family as I know it to be - plus things I have never even noticed. Her use of light to draw attention to different moods and scenes keeps me examining my own photos to see what I may have missed
