“I first heard about Janelle when she was hired to photograph a dear friends wedding. After getting to know her through the pre-wedding shoots, and seeing the results, I knew I would want her to photograph me as well. As expected, the entire process of working with her was a dream! She was so incredibly dedicated to us looking the very best we possibly could, and made the whole experience so much fun. I was amazed how quickly I became comfortable with her, and couldn’t believe how quickly time went by with her! She has found the perfect balance of professionalism and casual, business and fun. I could not recommend her more highly to anyone doing essentially any kind of photographed event-wedding, showers, family portraits….Janelle Stephanie is a rare find- don’t miss out!” ~ Kindra

“Janelle is the consummate professional – warm, articulate, able to nail down amazing locations for photo shoots and producing WONDERFUL photos and memories as a result! She arranged a photo session (pre-bridal) for my best friend and myself, and tirelessly worked to produce the photos and experience we want. We were both very comfortable working with her at every step of the process.” ~ Keena

“Janelle was recommended by my sister, Joanne, for our wedding in August 2009, and she did a wonderful job not only for our wedding but also for our engagement pictures. Every time I look at our wedding pictures I am amazed at all the different aspects that she was able to capture on film that day, and we get so many compliments from people when we show them our wedding book.” ~Karen & Rob

“Janelle Stephanie has photographed some of my work with event hair. I’ve worked with fashion photographers in LA and Buenos Aires and her work is some of the best I’ve seen. Janelle’s pictures are magic, they capture life in a way that you dream the best photographs could. She has vision, she has style, and she has passion. With Janelle what you get will be better than you could have even imagined.” ~ Lauren Lust, Stylist

“No photographer has ever captured my beauty like Janelle. My house has been full of unflattering pictures for years. In one hour Janelle was able to take several gorgeous shots of me. Janelle is capable of coaching her clients into giving her their best smile—-and she captures it! Janelle not only made me smile and laugh, I can honestly say when she left I felt more beautiful, and it was all on film!” ~ Josie Acosta, Hawaii & Santa Barbara & Redding

“Janelle is the best! She was such a sweet woman, and has a unique talent for art. Whenever our friends see our engagement and wedding photos they all love them and want her information to take photos for their families! She gets to know you as a client and from that, works around what you like and what she thinks looks best! She is an amazing artist, and a sweet friend to have around.” ~ Jennie & John Hannon

“I so enjoyed working with Janelle! She made me feel beautiful, like a model… like that day was mine and she was going to make me look awesome! She had so much fun and I could tell she was loving it, and it just made me want to work it! Plus, I like to call her camera “Magic” because it just makes everything look better. She gave a hundred a ten percent in every one of our photoshoots, gave me so many images to choose from, and at such an affordable price. Janelle offers everything you are looking for in a photographer, and she was one of the BEST decisions for my wedding. Her work is what is going to make my wedding day last forever. Thanks Janelle…. you rock!” ~ Julie Virkh

“Janelle worked with my daughter on her senior portraits. She did such an amazing job that when it was time for our family photos I couldn’t think of anyone better to do the job. Janelle met us at an agreed location and after taking a series of photos, suggested moving down the street a couple of miles for better premium lighting and background. It was a perfect setting for what we were trying to achieve and Janelle nailed it. Her set-up ideas were fun & fresh, the moments she captured were riveting, her signature ideas unthinkable, and what she captured that late afternoon with the 7 of us, with children ranging from 18 to 6, is probably one of the best that I’ve seen. The edited photos that we received were beautifully done. It was obvious the time and talent she put into the project. We are not new to family portraits, I love having the privilege of having them done, but Janelle brought something new to the table and I would highly recommend her for any photo job.” ~Annette
