Wedding Photos

Stephanie was great at being in contact with us and providing examples of her portfolio. it made a big difference on the big day when she was able to provide us with the shots we wanted and some we hadn't even known we needed. Her sense of humor and professionalism made the whole experience a treat.

Our dream photographers

When we saw Stephanie Beach’s instagram page we knew that her style would suit us. Her and Dave were great to have with us on our wedding day. They were total professionals while also keeping things fun!

Amazing!

Stephanie and Dave captured our intimate backyard wedding (September 2021) and we are so impressed and happy with the photos. They are so fun and professional at the same time and helped us feel more at ease in posing. They captured every special moment of our wedding and some great family pictures with our young children as well. They took the time to make sure everything was captured and were so fun to work with. They even captured some spontaneous moments of the kids and our dog. I would recommend them to everybody!!!! Thank you both again for making our special day so memorable. Julie & Shenfield

Made 'modeling' easy & captured our wedding day experience

Stephanie (and Dave!) were amazing to work with. They are friendly, helpful, and they made us laugh A LOT (which added to the warmth and genuine-vibe of our photos). They definitely helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, both during our engagement session and on our wedding day, and had lots of ideas of how to best utilize the beauty of our venue (Temples Country Weddings). We were also impressed with the quantity of edited photos we received and the thoughtfulness of the welcome and 'photo delivery' packages.

Simply Fantastic!

My partner and I were married on September 12th 2020, and we chose to use Steph & Dave as our photographers.

We initially opted for a package that included an engagement shoot (so that we might get a bit more comfortable posing with the camera before our big day, as both of us are camera-shy), but had to downgrade due to COVID restrictions. This ended up being absolutely no problem, as Steph & Dave were very understanding, and were able to take many fantastic shots. We even decided at the last minute to ask about the possibility of recording our ceremony for guests who were unable to attend, and they were able to do this as well without issue- they even came out to our rehearsal the night before, to make sure that the sound equipment could be properly situated! Stephanie is an excellent photographer, and gives very clear instructions when setting up a shot (which is useful for those of us who are nervous in front of a camera), and Dave is a joy to work with. Based on our experiences, we would definitely recommend Stephanie Beach Photography!

Absolutely Excellent!

After our original out of province got postponed due to the pandemic, we decided at the last minute that we still wanted to get legally married this summer. Since we weren't able to have all of our loved ones with us, we knew that photography would be super important. Having met Stephanie at a wedding show a few years back (before we decided on an out of province wedding) I knew without a doubt that I wanted her to photograph our secret elopement. Boy oh boy, she did not disappoint! Stephanie was absolutely lovely to work with from the very first email through to getting our photos delivered! She was very flexible and understanding while we were trying to work out the logistics of what we wanted and she was phenomenal on the day of! We're not usually big on getting our photos taken, but Stephanie made us feel so comfortable! It never felt awkward or forced, and she had us laughing and twirling all around the park! We now have so many wonderful photos to share with everyone that couldn't be there with us! You can't go wrong choosing Stephanie Beach Photography! Absolutely Excellent!

Amazing team and photos!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Stephanie Beach Photography! First off, Steph and Dave are a great team. They work so well together. Everything is just so in sync. Second, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease. It made the wedding day flow so smoothly. Thirdly, the photos are spectacular. We couldn’t have asked for better. They captured all the moments we wanted. Can’t wait to display them! Can’t thank Stephanie and Dave enough!

Stress free and fabulous

Stephanie was wonderful with us. She captured all of the pictures we wanted and made us feel so comfortable doing it. To say we are two awkward people, it did not look like it on camera. haha. So thank you so very much. We love all of our pictures. Just fabulous!

Amazing at-home engagement photos

Stephanie came to our home to take our engagement photos earlier this summer. She came prepared, on time, and with some great ideas! She walked us through the process and gave us tips for each pose, as we are not photo-savy people! Steph even went the extra mile walking through our pasture to get the perfect photo. She made us feel comfortable and made the entire process really fun! I would highly recommend her and her husband, they're a great team!

Meet the team

Stephanie Koning
Stephanie Koning
Owner + Primary Photographer

Hello, I'm Stephanie and when I started photography I never actually intended to shoot weddings. I am a huge introvert, and the iteraction and people-skills required for weddings was something I didn't think I had. But after I shot my first wedding, i not only found those skills, but I fell head-over-heels in love with the job (no pun intended - well, maybe a little ;) )!

When I'm not working with my camera you will probably find me chilling at home watching classic rom-coms or 90's TV sitcoms. And if you've ever received an email from me or followed me on social media, you have probably already noticed that I love exclamation marks and smiley faces and use them abundantly!

There is just something so magical about capturing the start of a marriage. Being able to help our couples have a relaxed, comfortable day while still getting stunning images they can share and enjoy for years to come is something that is very special to me. It's cliche, but most days I can't believe this is my job!

David Koning
David Koning
Second Photographer + Assistant

Hello, I'm Dave! I started my photography journey by watching Steph and asking a ton of questions. After realizing that she and I learn things differently, I started playing around with cameras myself and loved what I was able to create! I have been shooting alongside her ever since and cherish the extra time we are able to spend together while capturing our couple's wedding days!

When I am not taking photos you will likely find me playing strategy games or tickling the ivories while I play one of my favourite songs. I also love fiddling around with various tasks and projects around the house, when I can find the time of course.

Photography may not have been something I went looking for, but I am so glad it found me. I really do love the time I get to spend with our couples and take pride in being able to create a fun, comfortable atmosphere throughout their wedding day!

Kaylee Koning
Kaylee Koning
Assistant Photographer + Wonder Dog

Hi, I'm Kaylee and I am the goodest girl! I am a big help to my Mom while she edits photos, keeping her entertained and making sure she doesn't sound crazy when she talks to herself while she works. And I am learning to be just the bestest assistant photographer too, but it's a work in progress.

I may not like it when my pawrents leave me to shoot wedding days, but I love it when they come home because I get lots of extra treats and cuddles!

I love playing tug and chase, and am told that I have the softest belly! I also love meeting new people as they chat about their wedding day with my pawrents (but let them know if you aren't comfortable with me being around as I also love long walks and will take any excuse to get one)!
