Samuel & Estefana About Us Photography by Estefana Photo with pets

Estefana +

Hi there! My name is Estefana! Pronounced is-TE-fuh-nuh. Complicated right? Not to worry though! You can call me Stefanie. Technically, that was my name for a couple months, then my parents decided to change my name. So I go by both! (Makes things super easy right?)

I’m the face behind all of the emails, blogs & messages. I’m also the head photographer who will photograph your surprise proposal, engagement session, elopement & wedding!

My favorite foods are chicken fried rice, steaks & chocolate. My favorite tv shows are Friends, Futurama, Bob’s Burgers, The George Lopez Show, Samurai Jack & Dragonball Z. (Yes, I’m a nerd!) A few of my favorite movies are Scary Movie 3, Interstellar, The Harry Potter series, The Dark Knight, The Resident Evil series, Marvel movies, The Matrix series & The Naked Gun. And of course, my ALL TIME favorite actor is Nicolas Cage. Don't believe me? Check my car, and you'll see an air freshner with his GORGEOUS face on it!

We have three rescue cats. They’re little toddlers sometimes, but we love them to death. Their names are Sajera, Morning & Midnight! If you hear a meow over the phone, it’s most likely Midnight saying hello! We also recently rescued a blue-crowned conure named Leela. She's super sassy and loves Sam TONS. I'm practically a nobody to her. cries

I was born and raised in Central Texas, so I absolutely love the Texas Hill Country scenery. Now living in the big city, I miss those wide open fields and fresh air. But I can honestly say that living in the city has its perks! I practically live at Michael's as I'm addicted to my Cricut Maker. Crafting is my side hobby, and just about all of my Christmas gifts are handmade by me!

Hey everyone! The name’s Samuel, but you can call me Sam! I’m the wonderful, awesome, and amazing husband to my beautiful wife Estefana. (Just thought you should know!) I’m the guy who will capture your awesome moments on your special day. So call me Estefana’s second photographer!

My love for photography has been passed down from my Great Grandfather, who I sadly never got to meet, but was an avid photographer himself. Fun fact, he was actually the master electrician that put in the original wires to the Grand Canyon! His favorite camera has since been passed down to me and I still use it to this day! Film is slowly coming back into popularity, and it’s really exciting to see what people capture with their cameras. It’s like reliving history all over again!

I’m a city boy that grew up in Austin Texas and decided to stay put. There’s just something so special about living here, even if traffic can be the worst sometimes. I met my beautiful wife Estefana back in college. I first asked her out on a date through facebook to which she sadly said no, but I did get her in the end! Now, she’s stuck with me pestering her with my awesome puns. She claims they’re terrible, but I definitely don’t think so!
