Wedding photos are more than beautiful portraits—they’re emotional time capsules. In this episode of Handled: A Wedding Planning Podcast, Alyson sits down with Chicago-based photographer Winterlyn Stebner of Winterlyn Photography to explore the feelings behind wedding photography and what it means to be truly seen on your wedding day.
Together, they talk about vulnerability in front of the camera, the importance of trust between couples and their photographer, and how emotion, movement, and connection shape the most meaningful images.
From first looks to quiet in-between moments, this is a heartfelt conversation about capturing not just how your day looked—but how it felt.
