Hi, I'm Stephanie!

 We do not publish or share photographs will full children's faces on the internet or any public digital platforms even with explicit consent from their legal guardians. We firmly believe in protecting their digital footprint and ensuring their online safety.

In today's digital age, maintaining a low to non-existent digital footprint is crucial for safeguarding personal privacy and security. By minimizing exposure on the internet, individuals can mitigate risks associated with identity theft, cyberbullying, and unwarranted surveillance.

We respect anyone's decision to keep their digital footprint minimal.
Signing a model release is NOT required to book with us. 

Thank you for respecting our commitment to privacy and digital safety.

At Stephanie Prickel Photography, we prioritize the privacy and safety of individuals, especially children.

I'm so glad you're here on my website, now shoot me a message so that I know you're interested in booking a session with me. 

From there, I will send over pricing information, sample portfolio, my availability, and other details in my Investment Guide. 

We will discuss your expectations at this stage and what sort of package will work best for you and your vision!

The Process

BEING A CLIENT OF STEPHANIE PRICKEL PHOTOGRAPHY

I'll send over an online Booking link for you to decide on a package, set your due date on my calendar, pay a non-refundable retainer, and sign a contract. 

Many families book their sessions 4-5 months in advance. My schedule fills up very quickly and your session fee reserves your time slot. After your time slot is held, I cannot give that time to any other client. I only accept a certain amount of sessions each month to ensure I am available if poor weather happens. 

Time seems to be moving quickly these days, so don’t wait to get on my calendar. 

After we chat, let's get you on my calendar!

I will guide you from the beginning. In your welcome guide, I will send you lots information about what to expect during a session, what clothing choices are best, and more tips and tricks from me to you.  

I will send over a questionnaire to help you pick the right outfits for your family, questions for me to get to know you and your child(ren) before your session, and other details that are important to create images that you will love for a lifetime.

I have a client closet for my clients as well. I'm always expanding my collection of items, so if you're looking for something in particular, let me know!

Outdoor sessions are best an hour before sunset. Therefore, the summer months will be a "late" night for the younger kiddos. I ask families to make adjustments in their schedules so that we capture the warm glow in the evenings. 


NOW LET’S PLAN THE ULTIMATE SESSION

The Process

BEING A CLIENT OF STEPHANIE PRICKEL PHOTOGRAPHY

On the day of your session, you can expect for the first few moments for us to get to know each other. I'll snap a few of the "look at the camera and smile" photos. But as we get warmed up, it's time for some fun! I want everyone to effortlessly look and feel like themselves. We will turn on some tunes, play some games, I will prompt your family into poses and activities that create amazing and loving photographs. 

Don't stress if your child(ren) is shy. I always meet children at their level. It is important that they feel comfortable and I can document their personality.

The Process

We will go over your photos with a light edit. This way you are able to pick YOUR favorite photos from our session. I will always have sample edits that are fully edited for you to see what a full edit will look like. Once you make a decision on which photos you'd like to purchase, I will start to hand edit each photo. 

Next, if you choose tangible prints or products, we will make final decisions of your selection before it is ordered. There is no detail too small, we are creating a custom artwork that is unique to you! You are able to take full control of every detail or you are able to trust my design process as well. This is a fun and laid back time to create something one of a kind! 

As soon as payment is paid in full, I will place your order. All sales are final on custom artwork.

"Stephanie has been so easy to work with! My kids always love being in front of the camera until it comes to professional pictures. BUT… Stephanie has a special way of getting them to open up and be themselves, which I have been so grateful for. There have been times I go home and think “I hope we got at least one good one.” And there are always so many ‘good’ ones to choose from, because Stephanie does amazing work! "
-Angela

"Stephanie is great to work with. She creates a fun photo shoot and captures casual and relaxed photos. She has a wonderful way of making everyone smile and have a good time - even the moody teenager! I highly recommend Stephanie - she is very responsive, provides a great variety of purchase options, and quickly edits and provides pictures to her clients. "

“Stephanie is so great to work with when trying to capture the most important moments in your life. We had such a relaxed and fun session. Stephanie was easy going and took the stress and awkwardness out of taking pictures. The location that she chose for our photos was beautiful and was exactly what I described to her for what I was looking for. Her editing skills are amazing and she got our photos back to us very quickly! She was always very quick to respond anytime I messaged her and was always very helpful in answering any of my questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend using Stephanie to capture all of your most memorable moments in your life! We had a great experience with her! I cherish the pictures that she captured for my husband and I.”

"I love that you made Sophie feel at ease during her session. You were able to capture her natural beauty and nothing felt staged or un-natural about any of her photos. Being able to sit down with you after to talk about packages and ordering options was great, I never felt pressured to order anything that I didn't want. Thank you for all the time you spent with us."
