“We had an incredible session with Belva! From the planning zoom call to the very end of our photo session, she made all of us feel comfortable and relaxed. Her easy-going demeanor and her keen sense of humor made everything run smoothly and made the whole session fun! It was a hot summer evening with a lot of outfit changes for my seniors. Belva quickly found the best spots with ideal lighting and had countless posing ideas – she was game for it all! A highlight was when Belva quickly captured images with wildlife in the background – what a breathtaking moment, resulting in some stunning images! – Mangano Family


Some family photoshoots are about more than beautiful portraits. They’re about capturing the people, places, and moments that mean the most.
For the Mangano family, their custom family portrait experience with photographer Belva was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate a special chapter in their lives.
From the initial planning consultation to their summer evening photoshoot, every detail was thoughtfully coordinated to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience.
Despite the summer heat and multiple outfit changes for the family’s seniors, Belva kept the session moving effortlessly, finding beautiful natural lighting, suggesting flattering poses, and capturing spontaneous moments along the way.
One particularly memorable moment came when local wildlife appeared in the background, creating a breathtaking opportunity for truly unique family portraits.
The finished images beautifully captured the Mangano family’s connection to a place they love and the memories they’ll treasure for years to come.
At Stephanie Selby Photography, we believe custom family portraits should celebrate your family’s unique story while making the entire experience just as memorable as the photographs themselves.
Thank you, Mangano Family! We absolutely loved working with you!!
