Stephanie VanWagoner + The Story Behind
"Falling in love is easy but staying in love is very special." -Unknown Ever come across an image that gives you goosebumps? How about one that makes you happy cry?

Shelley Reis + The Story Behind
Normally when you think of lifestyle/storytelling photos, you are just a fly on the wall there to document things that happen in front of you with really no thought process behind the photos.

We were mesmerized how she used a lace dress and light to place a perfect pattern on her subject as well as using it as leading lines. We are super stoked to have her in this
Kandi Zadel + The Story Behind
Babies are the most precious gifts on earth. We love to stare them for hours on end so that's why having newborn photos taken is super important. Time is fleeting and those small details that we adore like the flakes on the skin or that oh-so-sweet peach fuzz can be gone in an instant. Kandi documents newborns in a timeless manner and manages to make those details special. We have no doubt that once her photos are looked back on, those raw emotions experienced in the past
