You found the one. That one person who sees you for who you really are underneath all the layers. That one person who isn't afraid to let you in on all of his secrets and open his heart to you.
You don't complete each other, because you are already both complete as individuals. But you balance one another. Your strengths complement each other and together you are far stronger than you would ever be alone.
You cannot wait to marry him and live a lifetime of beautiful moments together. And you want those moments to be permanently etched in time through Romantic, Elegant, and Timeless photographs.
preserve your legacy with grace and beauty
CHICAGO, illinois wedding photographer
Award-winning | Fine Art Photography
Coffee dates, cabernet and deep conversations. Romantic walks and people watching. Spontaneity and that je ne sais quois.
what I'm known for:
in a love that is worth living for in that John Legend "All of Me" sort of way.
I believe that legacy connects us to the past and builds a foundation for the future.
I believe that every story deserves to be told. And if it's going to be told, it deserves to be told beautifully.
i believe...

for everything you did to make this day special for us. You truly made our dream wedding come true. From how comfortable you made us feel during our engagement shoot, to having pizza and wine with us til late at night, letting me borrow your studio to get ready & putting up with all the craziness that came with it, and finally capturing all of the most incredible, sweetest moments. You are not only good at this job because you take good photos, you are great because you put your whole heart & soul into it and it shows in your work.
So thankful for you!
Love, Shelby & Cole

with Stephanie and how she carries her business and herself with her passion for photography! The moment my husband and I met her I knew we found “the one”... Our family and friends have not stopped talking about the photos and the collection of them as a video Stephanie put together. We have considered her a part of our family and not just a friend! Thank you so much Stephanie Wood Photography!"

I believe that your legacy is the most important thing you will create for your family.
Imagine 150 years from now, as your great great granddaughter is planning her wedding. Her great grandmother - your granddaughter - pulls out your wedding album to show her where it all began.
What do you want those photographs to represent? What stories do you want them to tell? How do you want your legacy to be preserved?
Do you want pictures that fall victim to today's trends? Or do you want timeless and elegant photographs that show a family legacy your loved ones can be proud of?
That's where I come in. Together, we can preserve your legacy in a romantic, elegant and timeless way.
Full wedding collections begin at $2700
We don't just care about your pictures. We care about your legacy.
