Stefani Peterson Corinth Wedding & Portrait Photographer

Welcome to Tru Identity Photography+Designs

My name is Stefani Peterson, I am the lead photographer and owner of Tru Identity Photography+Designs.

I began Tru Identity in 2008, kind of by accident... I was a dance/drill team director and first grade teacher for three years when I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. I made the team and decided to put teaching aside (I could always go back to it) while I embraced this amazing opportunity of being a DCC. During this time, I bought my first Canon camera, learned the ins-and-outs of photography and shooting in manual, and started photographing anything and everything (and everyone) that would let me. And as they say, the rest is history!

I love getting to know my clients and sharing in their special events! If you would like to talk further about your wedding photography or special event that needs to be remembered, feel free to shoot me an email by clicking the Contact link above.

Thank you!
Stefani

Wedding Wish #8- Keep reception and ceremony locations the same, if possible

Wedding Wish #8- Keep your Ceremony and Reception venue the same, or at least within the same city

By keeping your ceremony and reception location the same, there are several benefits. One, you don’t loose your guests (unless you want to, and in that case definitely move your reception out!). And two, you aren’t rushed to get to your guests because they have been waiting. That is one of the things that’s most disappointing as a wedding photographer, is not allowing enough time to photograph creatively the bride and groom together on their wedding day.

Sometimes, I know it’s not possible to have your reception at the same location as your ceremony but if you have to move at least move within the same city, no more that 10-15 minute drive, and provide a detailed map. Here is a fun Wedding Day mapping website I found called WeddingMapper.
