Rebecca Stephenson
Photographer
Take it from the most camera-shy person you'll ever meet - my goal is to take the focus off the camera.
There is no expectation to perform or fake smile - I'll only ask you to have a great time with those that mean the most to you. Welcome outgoing mommas, camera-shy hubbies, wild children, and snuggly babies
When I’m not busy teaching my dog Photoshop, you can most likely find me buried under a big blanket, snacking on German Chocolates. I have an unhealthy obsession with throw pillows, oversized sweaters, comfy PJ's, and anything macrame or boho-inspired. I run on caffeine and feel-good music.
Jacob Cope
Photographer
Jacob Cope started out his photography adventure in 2014 taking photos of anything and everything he could point his lens at, but mainly that consisted of taking photos of his friends cars. After 4 years of that, he joined an international car club called BattleGang based out of Maryland. This, paired with the drive to attend any car show within 8 hours from Illinois, opened the door for being a part of media coverage for many of the largest car shows in the midwest. From taking photos of the vehicles, models, vendors, and all the candid shots one can take in a day, he decided to take the dive into the wedding photography world. He started by taking on friend's weddings to gain experience and eventually he started working with Complete Weddings + Events, a national wedding photography and videography company.

I strive to make sure that each image tells a story and captures the essence of what makes us unique as individuals" "When working with me I help you pose, get comfortable, and talk you through every step
Erika Sternard
Photographer
It takes a lot of vulnerability to share your love with a photographer, letting them peek into the most precious thing in your life. And I don't take that honor lightly. I recognize that every couple is unique, which is what I want to capture: The in-between moments and the details that make each wedding individual. My photojournalism background has taught me how to catch the most authentic pieces of your day. I'm bit of a nerd, with a strong love for Lord of the Rings, and a traveler who loves venturing out from Chicago to take the scenic route.
