"My daughter just finished her first photo shoot with Stephan Partipilo. There are many reasons why we will be using him again for any future photo needs. First and foremost he is so gifted at his craft. He knows how to capture the right pose with the right lighting & the surrounding area all while making the person being photographed feel confident, relaxed, & having a good time. Not only did he let my daughter play her music with his blue tooth speaker, but he allowed her to see her photos all along the way. Which allowed her to really enjoy the progression of the shoot.
My husband and I enjoyed watching Stephan get into all sorts of positions (sitting, standing, laying on stomach, laying on his back, kneeling, & standing), just to grab the perfect shot. I love that he also takes pictures of feet in all of his shoots. His ability to make them look beautiful & a extension of the beauty he already is captioning in the person, is a gift in itself. Stephan is such a easy going guy, so easy to work with. He is very kind and approachable. Stephan also kept us informed the whole time from first contact to notifying us when pictures were ready to view. Which we had some to look at the same day. Crazy fast results! I would highly recommend Stephan for any of my family or individual photos in my future”

“I have to give so much credit to Stephan and can not say enough good things about him and our experience shooting with him. I am the mother of a 10 year old girl who has been doing modeling and acting for a year now. She has done many shoots and this by far has been her favorite, and mine. You can tell right away how passionate Stephan is about photography. He connects with his clients and captures amazing moments in still frames, yet brings them back to life when you are looking at his finished images. He created a relaxed environment, was very punctual, and communicated with us the entire time. Stephan was very accommodating from the moment we made contact and booked with him, to the day after the shoot, when we realized we left a jacket there. He went out of his way to get it in the mail to us the very next day. This shoot went flawlessly and he over delivered in every way possible. The images he produced of my daughter we phenomenal. Our hope is to have many more shoots with Stephan in the very near future. If you are looking for a professional with incredible talent to photograph you or your family, I can say without a doubt he is the one you want on the other end of the camera”

“Stephan is an amazing photographer and artist!
My daughter worked with him a few times professionally, and we decided to hire him for senior pictures. They turned out amazing and we received tons of photos at a very reasonable cost, and the return time for finished product was quick.
Stephan is warm and welcoming; you can tell he loves photography and working with his clients. He has a great way of making you feel like a million bucks! Hence the shoots are fun, and this leads to great images because you are not self conscious or nervous while taking pics, plus your own personality shines through.
One of the best things about Stephan's work is his artistic eye. He will listen to what you want, and compliments this with his own great ideas. We are always amazed how he visualizes, and uses the scenery / lighting to enhance the clients image.
Thanks you Stephan we love the photos!”
