As a mama of five and labor + delivery nurse for many years, I know firsthand how fleeting time can feel. The weeks and months leading up to birth seem to slip through our fingers like sand. One moment, you’re marveling at the first flutters of life within you, and the next, you’re holding your precious baby in your arms. This time—these miraculous moments of waiting and growing—is a gift. And it deserves to be celebrated.
Your body is doing something extraordinary. It’s nurturing, protecting, and sustaining a new life. That’s no small thing. Every stretch mark, every curve, every change is part of your story—a testament to the incredible strength and beauty of motherhood. And this time, as brief as it is and as insignificant as it may seem, is worth remembering.

Prepare to create something extraordinary—a celebration of you and the new life you’re bringing into the world. I’ll guide you throughout your session so you’ll never wonder where to place your body or how to hold your hands. And we're never on a timeline. Your unhurried experience allows moments to unfold naturally and provides ample time for needed breaks to give your toddler some extra love.

Instead, we'll meet in person after your session to personally reveal all of your beautiful memories. We'll help guide you through the exciting process of choosing favorite images and custom designing artwork unique to your home.
We believe in the power of custom artwork designed with your home in mind. That's why we offer a wide selection of frames in different styles and finishes. And the best part? We'll hang your gallery wall for you at no additional cost. It's our mission NEVER to give busy moms more to do after their portrait session. From your initial inquiry to the installation of your artwork, we take care of you so that your only job is to enjoy your beautiful memories.

Stephanie, with her experience as a labor and delivery nurse, brings something to the table many photographers cannot. In our newborn session, she was able to soothe and photograph our precious girl, who can be quite finicky! The images were incredibly beautiful, and she is so great to work with!!

I couldn't be more pleased with Hutson's senior portraits. Stephanie's attention to detail, her talent, and the quality of the portraits are overwhelming. Thank you, Stephanie, for capturing our young man and this milestone.
Stephanie is a great photographer! I really enjoyed our portrait session and our reveal celebration. She loves your images as much as you do and takes great pride in making sure she captures everyone's loveliness and joy. She even got my husband to enjoy the session! I would also recommend ordering prints through her. I made some CVS photos with some of my digitals and the photo quality is OBVIOUSLY lower than the prints I ordered through Legacy. It's definitely worth the money because her images are beautiful, and the portraits should be just as amazing!
WOW! Stephanie is so talented. Not only are her pictures breathtaking, but the experience was wonderful. She took her time getting the perfect shots but got the job done quickly. Stephanie made the experience relaxing and made me feel beautiful. Watching my husband and daughter smile as they held my son for the photographs made my momma heart burst. I'm so thankful to have these precious moments to look back on over the years.
Stephanie is an amazingly talented photographer. Her candid and organized shots are nothing short of beautiful! She has such a giving heart by helping her community and providing support for local small businesses. It is an honor to know and work with Stephanie.
Stephanie did an amazing job capturing our extended family! She came up with several unique backgrounds for our portraits at our home. I love how they all turned out! She was able to capture great shots of our two younger kids, some I’ll cherish for many years to come! Stephanie is very personable and wonderful to work with! I’ll be booking more sessions in the future for sure.
Hi, I'm Stephanie
As a child growing up in sultry South Louisiana, I vividly remember poring over old photographs of my family tucked inside dusty albums. I loved reminiscing about the stories those pictures told of times past.
In today's digital age, it's easy to encapsulate life's memories in the proverbial digital shoebox. All those once-in-a-lifetime moments scrolled through on your phone, shared to social media, stored on your computer, and forgotten forever.
Instead, I create custom designed artwork that serves as a family heirloom and beckons you to joyfully relive those fleeting seasons of life again and again.
As a mom of five and a Labor and Delivery nurse for many years, I uniquely understand that time is our most precious commodity. Let me capture your family's spirit, soul, and story so your legacy can be preserved for generations to come.
