Hey, hello, hola!

Hey there, my name is Stacia, but I can go by Staci. And yes, my mom does have it going on.

I am a lifestyle photographer based in Southwest Michigan + the Dominican Republic specializing in weddings and elopements (but so happy to document any special moment or stage of your life!). I never planned on photography becoming my career- in fact I went to school for marketing and event planning. But it has been one of the biggest blessings. Dear Olive was born in 2015 after accepting an inquiry to photograph a wedding from a high school friend, since then I have photographed 150+ weddings.

I am married to my muy caliente Dominican husband who recently had his visa approved so we are able to live in the USA together! We travel back to the DR as often as we can but enjoy our time in Michigan raising our sweet and wild boys!

The best part of this job is all of the people I get to meet and the stories that I get to witness. I consider this job to be an incredible honor and would love to witness your story.

A few fun facts about me!

  • My favorite ice cream flavor is Cappuccino, specifically from Sherman’s Dairy (RIP Sherman’s).

  • I have two dogs, Eugene + Franklin.

  • I love a good margarita!

  • The ocean + Lake Michigan are my happy place.

  • The music I listen to ranges from Bad Bunny, Cardi B, Taylor Swift, and Chris Stapleton.
