THE WAY I SEE IT

THE INTERESTING STUFF

USUALLY HAPPENS

BETWEEN THE SHOT LIST.

I'm a photographer, photojournalist and visual anthropologist. I look for the details, interactions and unexpected moments that give a story its sense of place.

More than 15 years in marketing, public relations and brand strategy means I understand the brief, the audience and where the images will live, and I still look beyond it.

WATCH. NOTICE. DOCUMENT

ABOUT THE OBSERVER

I’M STEPHANIE

I started my career in journalism, where I learned to observe before intervening, to look for context, and to understand the most revealing part of a story isn’t always what everyone else is watching.

My background in cultural anthropology sharpened that instinct. It taught me to notice how people occupy a space, the objects they surround themselves with, and the small signals that say something about who we are.
