Capturing feeling-focused images for lovers with signature style.
Working together, your legacy is captured in living color (and celebrated with a champagne toast). You deserve to enjoy every moment-- with the assurance that your memories are in the best hands.
Hi, I'm Stokes, and I'm so glad you're here.
Through digital and film photography, I blend editorial style with documentary approach to preserve modern love stories. The result is timelessness for those who prioritize genuine moments, singular experiences, and photographs that capture how a moment felt.
The approach
More than photographs.
Growing up with narcolepsy, I've always fought to pause time.
Living in a dream world, I felt lost in a blur of light and color, needing a way to savor the beautiful little moments. To solve this, my mother gave me a Nikon camera. Since that day, I've loved making time stand still, even just for a second.
As a photographer, it's an honor to hold time and space for you and who you love most.
Stokes encouraged us to be us.
She cares about letting us live in the moment.
It was so fun to be ourselves;
her work quality is amazing.

WEDDINGS
I chase light, feelings, and split-second glances in addition to the highlights of wedding days. Why? The truest feelings are caught in the glimpses in between.
