Hey! I'm Stacey, a proud West Philly native, August Leo and your creative partner for producing high quailty photo and video assets for your brand, lifestyle or event. i love to travel, work out, create, and picnic in the park with my fiance and my boys (dog mom of 2).

How did you get into photography? My earliest memory is when I was in middle school. My mom got my sibs and me disposable Kodak cameras. I took my camera to school the next day and finished the film roll by lunch. As soon as my mom came home from work, I begged her to take me to Rite Aid so I could develop the pictures and so she could buy me another camera lol the spark came again while living in Spain. I had the opportunity to explore Europe, where I dreamt of being a travel photographer (still a dream job!). I always felt I had an eye for "the perfect shot"; I was missing the equipment. I now shoot with a mirrorless Canon RP.

What inspires your work? Begin able to document and share stories. there's no better storytelling than the ones that come from an image, so capturing raw moments is essential to me. I'm also big on concepts, so learning about passion projects inspires me.

How is shooting with you? It's a feel-good experience! If you're not used to being in front of the camera, I'm here to help you feel comfortable and talk you through poses as I shoot (and before the shoot during our calls). We'll laugh and dance. My fiancé Justin will most likely be playing music or flying the drone to get incredible behind-the-scenes footage. It'll be a great day - you'll leave feeling revitalized and confident!
