Hi, We’re Stephanie & Son

We’re the husband-and-wife team behind Last Minute Photoshoot, serving couples throughout Southern California.

Stephanie is our lead photographer and editor. Born and raised in Los Angeles, her love for photography began in childhood, inspired by her dad, who used his camera to support their family and preserve the moments that mattered most. After high school, a photography course in San Diego transformed the way she saw the world through her lens. Since then, she has spent more than a decade refining her craft and learning from respected creatives, including Martin Depict and Jesús Padilla Fotografía.

Son manages our website, client experience, bookings, planning, and communication. From your first inquiry to creating the timeline, choosing the perfect location, building a believable cover story, and coordinating every detail, he helps ensure you never have to plan your moment alone.

Together, we specialize in surprise proposals, engagement sessions, civil ceremonies, courthouse weddings, elopements, and weddings throughout Southern California. Whether you’re planning a last-minute proposal along the coast, an intimate courthouse ceremony, or a full wedding celebration, we approach every story with care, creativity, and intention.

For us, photography is about more than taking beautiful pictures. It’s about helping couples feel comfortable, capturing honest emotions, and preserving the moments that become part of their story.

If you’re looking for a Southern California photography team that will guide you through the entire experience and genuinely care about your story, we’d be honored to capture it.
