The Stephanie Newman Photography Journal

I think this session might be one of my favorite senior sessions of the year. Lindsey brought her mama and future sister-in-law to her session and I cannot tell you how many times I had to stop from photographing Lindsey to finish laughing at something her mom or her sister-in-law was doing to make Lindsey laug

Every senior session I book, I have my seniors fill out questionnaire, to get to know them a little better before we spend time together. Luke’s questionnaire mentioned that he has a love of collecting records and T-Swift aka Taylor Swift.

Katie and I were next door neighbors almost my entire growing up years. The first year we lived in the house next to Katie and her family, we were invited to a block party. And that year, the kids put on a talent show for the adults.

When Shara reached out to me in May for a session with her and her new husband. I had a moment of, um I don’t offer couples sessions. I’m gonna send her over to a fellow photographer that is more experienced with couples than me, but something was keeping me from doing just that. But […]

Allesha always books her family sessions in November with me and always has the session in June. Smart gal, because it’s hardly hot out, it’s just the right temperatures, at least in my opinion, sitting around 70-80 degrees.
