Steph and Tina are AMAZING!!! These shutterflies were a blast to work with. They have an amazing eye for detail! They will snap pics of you that will leave you wondering "when did you get THAT picture." The ladies do all sorts of photostyles and photfinishing ranging from traditional pictures, to fisheye, to color pop, and right back to high detail, wide angle, and movement/jumping pics. Their pricing and packaging is fair and straight foward. Never did I feel pressured or duped. They include and engagment session with all of their packages, which really helped my husband ease up infront of the camere. Come wedding day, my husband was ready to go. Not only did they take amazing pictures, they helped my wedding party with small odds and ends and keep everyone smiling in unconfortable situations. Stephina Photography was worth MORE than its weight in gold. We look foward to taking picutues with them in the future as our lives unfold.

I can't say enough about Stephina Photography! They did an outstanding job on more than one occasion. They did an amazing job on our engagement photos and when the location we wanted was closed there was no issue in scheduling a new date to get the pictures we wanted. If we needed to reschedule that was never a problem they were more than happy to make the change. I did a boudoir shoot with Tina for my future husband as a gift, it was SUPER fun and he was so excited with the gift book she put together. Our wedding....I can't stop bragging about how wonderful it was to have them as a part of our special day! They were on time, professional, and possibly as excited as we were that our wedding date had arrived! The photos from our wedding came out so beautiful, we've gotten so many compliments and our families LOVE them! I have shared them with 2 friends for their upcoming 2013 weddings and it looks like maybe a 3rd will book them. We love them and can't wait for future events in our lives for them to capture, baby?.......

My husband and I were sincerely happy with the end results and we highly recommend Stephina Photography

I have nothing to say but great things about Stephina Photography! They were referred to me by a close friend and once I met them I knew they were right for our wedding. They have affordable packages and even throw in engagement shots. We had such a blast with Tina during our engagment sessions and the photos came out beautiful that we couldn't wait for the big day. Stephanie and Tina are both very professional and fun to be around which makes being in front of the camera more relaxing. Everyone at the wedding kept saying how wonderful our photographers were and what a great job they were doing. Not only do they take great photos, but they helped answer many of my questions and help make the night run smoothly. Thank you for all of your hard work!

Stephanie and Tina from Stephina Photography are really amazing when it comes to capturing the important moments of a wedding. Their personalities are so vibrant and upbeat, and this definitely comes out in the great quality of work they produce. We referred to them by our wedding planner, and upon meeting them we immediately hit it off.
We got along so well and had a absolute blast with them. Our engagement session was just so much fun and our pictures definitely reflect that.
Stephina did a wonderful job on our wedding day as they captured so many wonderful formal shots as well as candids. They definitely paid attention to our preferences for more candids and our pictures reflect that.
For our wedding weekend, we stayed at the Catamaran Resort in Mission Bay and had our ceremony and reception at El Cortez in downtown San Diego. Stephina captured so many wonderful shots at both locations, and they were so flexible in accommodating us on our wedding day.
We have also received so many complements from our guests since our wedding day on the photos. Stephina makes it really easy for you and your guests to go online and view your photos. Several of our guests have since ordered prints from Stephina because they love the photos so much.
Stephina's services are also a great value for the price. They are just so talented. Their prints are also very reasonable from a cost perspective.
We recommend Stephina Photography to anyone planning a special event. You will have so much with them and will definitely be impressed with their work.

My pictures turned out beautiful!! The ladies did both our engagement and wedding. I couldn't be happier! Everyone loves the pictures!
GUEST




Stephanie and Tina shot both my engagement and wedding pictures and they both turned out great! They truly captured every moment of our wedding day. Our guests and wedding party raved about how great the pictures turned out. Not only are they great photographers, but they are also very easy to work with. They made us feel comfortable and had fun while doing it. They have great personalities and we really enjoyed working with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

We knew choosing a photographer would be difficult, since my now-husband actually does some wedding photography on the side. We knew we would need to find a photographer that not only took great photos, but also put up with my husband’s questions and requests. Stephina fit the bill nicely. Stephina is a team of two photographers- Stephanie and Tina. They have great energy and work well together.
They provide you with a CD of all the photos they take, and then you can print whichever ones you want yourself. (They do give you some prints too, depending on the package you choose). This worked perfectly for us. We had an engagement session with them a month before the wedding, and while we thought the photos were nice, nothing really jumped out at us. However, when we got our wedding day photos we were blown away, including my picky husband. They did a great job of blending both artistic/stylistic and photo-journalistic elements to provide a great storybook of our wedding.
One thing we would recommend is giving your photographer (regardless of who you choose) a detailed list of all the “must have” photos- formal family photos and all the group shots you want taken during the reception (a lesson from my husband). This list helped speed up the taking of formal photos right after the ceremony and also ensured that we weren’t left at the end saying, “I wish we would have gotten a photo with our Happy Hour friends.”
Stephina also got some great humorous shots, and a lot of candids (which was exactly what we wanted). They were upbeat, fun, and have positive attitudes. We really enjoyed having our photos being taken by them and love our wedding photos.

These Ladies are amazing at what they do. They have created a lifetime of memories for my Family!!
GUEST




Fantastic photographers! Stephanie and Tina were hilarious, kept us all upbeat, and got some AMAZING pictures!!! I am so happy we chose them, they really were a ton of fun, and are both super talented. They were very efficient and kept everyone organized. I felt like I had a couple more friends at my wedding who just happened to have cameras. I think this was some of the best money we spent, and their fee was more than reasonable! Highly reccommended!!!
GUEST




The lovely ladies at Stephina were AMAZING!!!! They both were professional and their outgoing personalities made them a hit with all of our guests. Even 5 months since our wedding we still have friends and family say "those girls were great" and the photos prove that. The uniquness and creativeness of the work really showed and I was sooo happy with how our photos turned out. They truely captured every moment of our day perfectly. I would HIGHLY reccommend them to anyone.. I was a bit skeptical at first because I booked them on-line and we didnt even meet till my wedding day BUT needless to say everything was perfect. Stephanie and Tina- We can't thank you enough for capturing some great memories for us. Keep up the great work and I will reccommend you to anyone I can for sure......:-)
GUEST




Words cannot really express how impressed my husband and I were with Stephina Photography. From the very first phone call to the wedding day, we had nothing but positive experiences with them. Then engagement session was wonderful and our friends and family raved about the photos that came from that shoot. Then came the wedding day! Nerves are high and people are on edge, but with Stephanie and Tina around, the day was so much less stressful. They have this way of making everything seem fun. Their personalities even put my mom at ease and put a genuine smile on her face during a time when she was very stressed out!
I HIGHLY recommend them. You will have amazing photos and you will have more fun than you ever though possible during your photo sessions!

I booked the ladies of Stephina the day I met with them. I found them on craigslist and looked at their website about a million times before our consultation and knew they were the ones. We started out with our engagements pictures at The Carlsbad Flower Fields. Tina was great and she even had lunch with us. It was as if we had known each other for years. We then drove to Wind N Sea were we finished the second half of our shoot. Our photos turned out absolutely amazing! I was so pleased with their work that I hired them to photograph my Grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. We were lucky enough to have both Tina and Stephanie for this one. The had such a busy day but were nice enough to squeeze one more in. My family enjoyed they company and sense of humor :) I can not wait for our wedding in September! I know that they will capture the most beautiful moments of our special day. I recommend Stephina to everyone that I know and tell everyone I can about thier beautiful work. Thanks for capturing my special moments ladies.

Tina and Steph were absolutely wonderful and couldn't have asked for a better set. They were so on top of it right from the start and it was really really nice not having to worry if my photographer(s) was going to have their act together. They did our engagement and wedding pics and they made my husband and I look beautiful. All around great - timely on their communications, photo turnaround quick, and very reasonably priced. Definitely worth your time to give them a call. I recommend them to every single person I know who is recently engaged or getting married.
GUEST




Stephanie & Tina are amazing photographers! My husband and I met them and we immediately felt comfortable around them. They are professional and FUN! They took so many wonderful photos at our wedding and it seemed like it took no time at all, so we could enjoy our day. We have had several compliments on their Beautiful work and we would recommend them to anyone looking for their future wedding.
GUEST




I booked stephina for a boudoir session. They were fabulous. I was really nervous in the beginning, but because of their personality and professionalism, I was able to loosen up. Their turn around time is so quick, I got teasers the next day, and the DVD with album in like 2 weeks. The pictures came out fantastic, she will make you look flawless! Like a maxim model!!
I have already told my friends and relatives about stephina photography and will continue to use her in the future.
GUEST




I am completely in love with Stephina Photography. Initially we booked with them for our engagement session. I was floored by the quality of pictures and loved their personalities. My (now) husband immediately suggested we book them for the wedding as well - even though we already had a different photographer. Little did he know, I had also booked them for Boudoir pictures. Now, I'm a big girl, and I felt gorgeous - still do when I see the pictures. As for the wedding itself, Tina was completely professional with my family, and completely what I needed her to be with all the stress. Just yesterday, someone saw my wedding pictures at work and commented that the pictures look like a post card and they were amazed with the quality of work and the deal they were able to work out for us. LOVE Stephina!
GUEST
