Growing up, my family developed a huge travel bug and we started going on annual adventures overseas. I quickly fell in love with exploring new cultures, meeting new people and experiencing different ways of life. But, unfortunately, realized that we would come home from these incredible trips with absolutely nothing to show for it. Because ironically, my family hated taking pictures. Since I wanted to always be able to remember every detail of these wonderful adventures, I quickly took it upon myself to become the "family photographer".

As I started getting older, I realized that these images were so much more than just “travel photos”.  They represented a very special, exciting and fleeting chapter in our lives.  And before long, I realized that what started as a desire to capture proof of our travels and adventures together, quickly turned into:

I believe you deserve the peace of mind knowing that you have someone in your corner passionately documenting authentic, vibrant and dynamic memories for you and the beginning of your own legacy together. 

And I would be honored to be that person for you.

A BURNING PASSION FOR STORYTELLING, THE PRESERVATION OF MOMENTS AND THE DOCUMENTING OF MY OWN FAMILY'S LEGACY.

And it was out of that passion that Stefani Ciotti Photography was born.

My Love Story

May 2017: Kyle and I first met 👩🏻‍❤️‍👨🏻
(thanks to one of my amazing brides - you can read our full story HERE). 
Feb 2018: we moved in together 🏡
June 2021: we got engaged 💍
Nov 2022: we got married in Jamaica - and it was an absolute dream!! 👰🏻🤵🏻

He is more on the reserved side and I'm a social butterfly. He loves to play guitar and I love to sing and dance. We are both professional photographers; except I photograph couples and all things love - and he photographs cars and all things military jets. We both enjoy being active and have been getting more into pickleball lately. We love traveling - whether it be a weekend getaway to a nearby town or an adventure across the world - we just love experiencing new things together.

We are passionate about life, are always laughing and try not to take anything too seriously - life is much too short!
