Nel is an awesome photographer! She did my graduation photos and they turned out wonderful!…read more She was super understanding, she helped with my posing, and she was easygoing and nice to be around, which is super important when you're trying to take happy genuine photos to share with all your family and friends. She has a really unique candid/storytelling style of photography, but she can also do great posed shots. I highly recommend checking out her work and considering her if you're looking for a photographer in the SD area.

Highlights include: Attention to detail, super-speedy turnaround time for getting your photos in your hot little hands, and a very easy-going, relaxed experience during the shoot. She has tons of ideas if you draw a blank, but also shines when you come with your own ideas/props, and is great at making them happen. We will definitely use her again!

Ashleigh has become family to us! She has captured every special moment of our life together so far…read moreand I am forever thankful to have found her! She first did our engagement photos on the beach and I have them blown up huge in our house as they make me so happy to look at. We were a covid couple and she moved our date in a day, no questions asked. She captured our wedding a year later and the photos speak for themselves! The one thing forgotten was bride transportation to the venue! She drove me and the maid of honor! She will work as a second coordinator on your wedding day making sure everything goes as planned. How amazing is that?!?! She is so professional and communicative. Also so so quick! We had wedding sneak peaks the next day and full galleries within a week or 2!!!! 9 months later, she did our maternity session. I felt so uncomfortable being so pregnant but she made me look like a mermaid goddess!! She has done 2 family mini photo sessions with our daughter since then! We will use her for life and I have all the photos in our home! They make me smile every day!! The best thing about Ashleigh is honestly her personality. The moment you meet her, she makes you feel like you are best friends. I always feel awkward in front of the camera and nervous but set puts you at ease, gives easy instructions and best of all, makes it so much fun! You never feel forced or posed, yet she delivers the perfect shots that you hope for! She captures your love, naturally and it is amazing to see! She is incredibly talented with a rare gift for photography and people in general. I will always wonder, did she get the shot with all that wind or with baby crying or with the bright sun? And then we get our gallery back and I am blown away each time, unable to pick my favorite image! We have people constantly asking who takes our photos and saying they are the best they have ever seen. She is the best photographer out there! We love you Ashleigh! Thank you for our priceless memories that will last a lifetime!

Before hiring Kristin for my branding session, I was using the same few photos I had of myself from…read morea previous family photo session. Having three kids, it's never easy getting professional photos of just yourself. As a business owner, I knew I desperately needed some branding photos. My favorite part about the whole process was how easy Kristin made the entire experience. From the discovery call to the shot and location lists, she nailed it down to every detail to make the day run smoothly. I love her organization and effort behind the entire shoot. Even during the Covid-19 pandemic, she sure knows how to adapt as needed. There were places we wanted to snap some shots in that became impossible, but we found great spots outside that were just as amazing. I recommend Kristin for your branding photography and family photography needs. She really knows how to make your personality shine and tell your story through her amazing photography skills. My photos cannot be any more perfect and they definitely define me really well. I feel like I can post all of my photos on social media and on my website with confidence. The hardest problem I had was narrowing down my image choices. I ended up ordering twice as many as I had planned! I will definitely be booking another session with Kristin in the near future. Attached are some of my favorite photos from our North Park, San Diego shoot which includes shots at Communal Coffee, Holy Matcha, Louisiana Exchange and Pachamama. Thanks, Kristin!

Stephanie and I were quickly in communication about an option for a location and we chose Balboa Park. She was able to take such great photos in the midst of huge crowds that were so focused on us. NO other person is in our photos and we love thinking this was a romantic private photoshoot. She was so fun and made us INSTANTLY feel at ease in front of the camera--even my husband who is intensely camera shy has some amazing laughing and smiling photos from this shoot. She has such great prompts and love for what she does and we highly recommend her artistry! Will definitely be booking her again!

My wife and I were recommended to Steph by a close friend after getting engaged. After an online meeting due to Covid, we found Steph to be a cool, easygoing and professional. We had our engagement photos done by her in Balboa Park and we were thrilled with how they turned out- we knew we picked the perfect photographer. Steph offered a great incentive-that if you use her for engagement photography and love the photos (like you will), she included everything in a package as our wedding photographer where the engagement photo session was discounted! Bonus! The wedding was amazing and Steph and her partner captured every angle imaginable with their own style. She brought on a sense of calm amongst all the calamity that helped us be in the moment to produce quality photos. She was also kind enough to send a congratulatory gift when all was said and done. Such class.. **If you are looking for a professional, upbeat, fun, dedicated photographer- look no further! Steph Sousa Photography is the ultimate. You will not regret it!!**
