I aim to present my work in a way that is 100% timeless and authentic. When you look back at your images, I want it to bring back "all the feels". I want my images to represent you just the way you are, nothing overly edited or changed. My hope is that you will be able to cherish these images for many years to come.

I'm so glad I chose Chelsea for our wedding photography! Chelsea was an absolute joy to work with, and not only is she a talented photographer, she helped organize and plan details for the wedding day schedule. We had a great experience doing engagement photos with her where she made us feel comfortable and stunned us with amazing photos, so we knew our wedding day photos would be great too. She was also very organized, professional, and flexible on the busy wedding day from achieving all the different shots and working with a large group for family portraits. Chelsea was a standout part of our wedding planning experience and made everything go smoothly and now we have beautiful photographs to cherish forever too.

Tiffany was amazing! I love that we got to do a “test run” for our engagement pictures to really get to know each other and see how we’d work together. On the day of the wedding, even though things were not all going to plan, she was steady and calm the whole time. Everything turned out amazing. She really listens and is one of the nicest humans! She caught some of the most amazing moments from family and friends. She was organized, reliable and captured all the best moments. She’s everything you need in a photographer Highly recommend!!

This is an amazing company. The photos turned out better than I could have ever expected or imagined. I planned my wedding quickly and they were so happy to be there. My husband and I aren’t comfortable in front of a camera and the entire thing was comfortable and fun. There were things captured that I couldn’t see myself so seeing the reactions of other people was amazing. I would work with them ten times over. Unbelievably amazing.

I highly recommend her and her husband AO as they are a pleasure to work with. Very sweet people. I was even bouncing a few wedding dates and even thought of relcating my wedding to Gatlinburg and they were completely fine with going to Gatlinburg to shoot my wedding! They were very flexible with all of my questions and concerns! I'm always really worried about that after I sign the contract and pay money that things will change. Not with them!

A simple hobby quickly became my passion, and then became Touch of Grace! After moving to Morris from southern Illinois, I quickly made so many new friends through photography. Since then my brand has exponentially grown. I am so excited to continue to watch Touch of Grace grow!

Hi there! I'm Stefan, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Central Illinois. I've been capturing special moments through my lens for the past 9 years, and I can't imagine doing anything else. Photography has always been my passion, but it wasn't until I started shooting weddings and portraits that I truly found my calling. There's something incredibly special about being able to document life's most important moments - the laughter, the tears, the joy, and the love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our first reason we were drawn to Stefan (besides the amazing photos) is the fact that he is LGBTQIA friendly. We had our concerns about being comfortable in front of a photographer if they were not. From the moment that Stefan walked in the door and got to work we knew we had made the right choice. He made the day feel so easy, pulled us to the side at just the right times, while also making sure we had plenty of time with our guests, took whatever pictures we asked, and made us feel so comfortable. We could not have asked for a better person to photograph our wedding day! Thank you Stefan! You have no idea how much you did for us throughout the day just by being so easy to work with!
