AS A FORMER ART MAJOR GRADUATING FROM MINNESOTA STATE UNIVERSITY WITH A FINE ARTS DEGREE IN PHOTOGRAPHY, I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A PASSION FOR PHOTOGRAPHS. WHEN I'M NOT WORKING, YOU CAN FIND ME HIKING, CAMPING, OR READING. I AM MARRIED MYSELF WHICH DRIVES MY LOVE FOR THE WEDDING INDUSTRY THAT MUCH MORE. BRADY AND I LOVE SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING, BOW HUNTING, AND PLAYING BOARD GAMES, BUT WE LOVE OUR SWEET BABY GIRL THE MOST!

I'M STACY THE PHOTOGRAPHER BEHIND ILY STUDIOS! I SPECIALIZE IN WEDDINGS, COUPLES, AND BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY. I AM BASED IN BISMARCK, ND AND HECK YES I HAVE A LOT OF NORTH DAKOTA PRIDE! MOST DAYS YOU CAN FIND ME SNUGGLING WITH MY BABY AND PUPS IN COMFY CLOTHES WATCHING NETFLIX. I AM MOSTLY KNOWN FOR BEING A CRAZY DOG LADY AND MY LOVE OF TRAVELING. PEOPLE OFTEN REFER TO ME AS OUTGOING AND WILLING TO TALK TO ANYONE. I LOVE SPENDING MY DAYS OUTDOORS KAYAKING AND BIKING WITH MY HUSBAND BRADY AND SOAKIN UP AS MUCH TIME AS POSSIBLE WITH OUR DAUGHTER HENLEY. THE THINGS I AM MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT IN LIFE ARE MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHING COUPLES AND LIVE FOR SHOWING YOUR UNIQUE LOVE STORY. I CONSIDER MYSELF SO LUCKY TO CAPTURE PEOPLE'S LOVE FOR A LIVING! I ALMOST ALWAYS TEAR UP AT THE WEDDINGS I PHOTOGRAPH. I NOT ONLY FEEL HONORED TO BE A PART OF THE MOST SPECIAL DAY IN SOMEONE'S LIFE, BUT AM BLESSED TO EXPERIENCE THESE MOMENTS.
