Erie Portrait and Wedding Photgrapher
Full-time photographer, part-time medical laboratory scientist — which basically means I spend my days capturing your most beautiful moments and my nights occasionally peering into microscopes, solving tiny mysteries.
I’ve been behind the camera for almost 5 years now, and what started as a creative outlet has turned into my dream career. I’m always learning and pushing myself so that every session gives my clients images that feel authentic, emotional, and uniquely them.
When I’m not photographing your gorgeous faces, I’m usually chasing after my three amazing kids — two sweet, adventurous boys and one sassy, sunshine-filled little girl. One of my boys is on the autism spectrum, and being his mom has made me a passionate advocate for understanding, inclusion, and celebrating every kind of beautiful difference.
Give me a quiet morning, a warm cup of coffee, and a good book, and I’m in my happy place before the day even begins. I also love filling my days with adventure — hiking new trails, catching a beach sunset, getting creative with art projects, or just laughing way too hard with friends. These moments keep me inspired and fuel the creativity I bring to every session.
Whether it’s the chaos of giggles during a family session, the quiet magic of a newborn’s first days, or the unfiltered joy of a wedding dance floor, I’m here to freeze those moments so you can hold onto them forever. Years from now, I want you to look back at your photos and feel exactly how that moment felt — the love, the laughter, and everything in between.

Stacy has an unexplainable gift, not only as a photographer, but as a person. She has a way of making you feel at ease and comfortable in your own skin during your shoot, which only leads more a beautiful end result. Her photos are truly unmatched in the quality, as well as the personable nature of the session itself. I would 10/10 recommend this beautiful soul to anyone who is in need of a photographer for any occasion. You will absolutely not regret it. Xo
