Lifestyle Portraits

When I’m not photographing weddings and engagements, lifestyle portraits are a great change of pace! I only take on a selected number of lifestyle portraits per month but I have walked away with some of my all time favorite photos! I’m continuing the “Best of 2015” with those unforgettable photos. 🙂 The lifestyle category encompasses family, maternity, senior, deployment and couples portraits. When I go into each session, my mission is to capture the joy but also the soft, tender moments. These are some of the sweetest, most beautiful expressions that really tell a lot about the person. I plan to continue documenting lifestyle portraits but will keep my limitations how many I photograph a month, especially during the popular seasons (spring/fall). If you are interested in booking this spring, email me at info@stephaniemessick.com . 🙂

To everyone who booked a lifestyle portrait this year, THANK YOU ALL for your support! What a FUN year it has been because of our time together. 🙂 XOXO!
