Make It Memorable with ECS Scenes

Capturing life's sweetest moments

ABOUT

Based in Rochester, New York, Emily Stoker is the founder of ECS Scenes, LLC, a freelance photography business specializing in portraits and special events.

She graduated from SUNY Fredonia in 2023 with her B.A. in Visual Arts and New Media, Summa Cum Laude with a concentration in Film and Video Arts.

She has been interested in photography since she was ten years old when she was gifted an underwater Kodak camera but did not begin to explore this passion seriously until her sophomore year of college.

"Photography for me is the realization of life's fragility. Being a part of someone's special moment, offering a permanent token of a memory, of a person, or a stage in life that's fleeting with time." –Emily

Don't think twice about booking with ECS Scenes, just do it!!! Emily is an amazing photographer. She is very easy to work with, very patient, and very professional. Booking with her was straightforward, from the invoice to receiving the final photos. She gives great poses ideas and location recommendations for your shoot.

I 10/10 recommend a session with Emily. The process was quick, lighthearted, and filled with so much good energy. I was originally anxious about poses and such, but she helped out every step of the way.

My experience with ECS Scenes was absolutely amazing. It's everything I could've asked for and more! Emily was very professional, very competent with different poses and angles. She made me feel very comfortable with music during my shoot and in front of a camera. She truly made my vision, a reality. I highly recommend others to do business with her. As soon as I need another photoshoot done, I will 100% be back. Truly talented! Thank you for everything Emily!

Working with Emily was seamless and great from beginning to end. From booking, invoices, and the photoshoot itself, she was professional and really sweet. I love that she provides a short survey to get to know the client prior to the shoot. It's a great personal touch. She also has a great eye for taking photos and the pictures from my Mommy & Me photoshoot came out perfectly. She made my 6 month old and I feel so comfortable. It was a great experience and I will definitely be using ECS Scenes in the future!

So amazing and empowering! Went into it with insecurities and uncertainty and walked out feeling on top of the world. I was made to feel extremely comfortable the entire time and it was just such a relaxing experience.

For my first photo shoot with my dog I was super nervous he wouldn't cooperate but ECS Scenes was super professional, patient & fun! It was a great experience and if you're thinking about booking, just do it!

As first time parents we wanted to get family pictures taken with our newborn so we reached out and booked a mini session. ECS Scenes went above and beyond. It was almost Kayden's feeding time so he was a bit fussy and she had the most patience while he settled and still captured the cutest photos. I will definitely be using ECS Scenes in the future to capture the memories that I will hold close to my heart forever.

My experience was amazing!! Emily was very easy to work with. She was very warm and friendly and made me very comfortable. She had many great photo ideas and was willing to take risks. The studio space used was very pretty. Emily arrived on time and did not rush through our session. I received all my photos on time and I was very pleased with how they came out!!!

We are totally in love with the photos and her work, I recommend it 100% !
Jaileen D.

Emily was so amazing and professional during this whole process. We accidentally showed up to the wrong side of the park where we were going to shoot and she walked all the way over to where I was. She was able to make the pictures work with where we were and I had no complaints, just top marks! I will be going to her for any future photography needs, 100% satisfied!
Elisha T.

Emily was amazing and her work for photography is great! We had a stubborn 2 year old and she worked great with her and still was able to capture great photos! We look forward to working with her in the future!

I have never done a professional shoot before. How does the process work?

Simply message me through my contact form to inquire about a service. From there, I will respond to you via email within 24 hours and we will discuss which package best fits your needs and reserve a date for your session! Then you will receive your invoice and contract and pay the deposit. Congrats! You're officially booked!

You will then receive a brief online questionnaire that allows me to get to know you a little prior to your shoot. Here, feel free to tell me about yourself and share any ideas or visions you have for your photos. Don't hesitate to schedule a consultation with me if you need assistance deciding on the best attire, location, and creative elements to incorporate into your session.

On the day of your shoot, please arrive a few minutes early ready to get started to maximize your allotted time. I will walk you through various poses and give you prompts to ensure that beautiful candids are captured as well. I will send you a few sneak peeks and then you will receive your entire edited gallery by the turnaround date stated in your contract.

How will I receive my photos?

You will be emailed a link to your personalized online digital gallery where you can view, share, and download your images all in one place. From your gallery, you are also able to purchase physical prints, albums, and frames to proudly display your photos.

What should I wear to my session?

To receive the best results, I highly recommend sticking to neutral colors and earthly tones that will blend in with your environment. Try to avoid vibrant or bold colors as they do not cooperate well when editing. Also, if you're doing a family or couples session, it is recommended to coordinate your outfits in some way, whether that be with the colors, clothing material, etc. If you would like some inspiration or feedback on your attire before your session, don't hesitate to reach out to me for a consultation!

Am I able to receive more photos than my package allows?

If you would like more photos than what your chosen package allows, additional edited images can be purchased for $5 per photo. You may also receive an additional 5 images completely free if you refer me to a family member or friend and they mention your name when booking with me.

Will I get to see all of my photos after my session?

After every session, I go through all of the photos and choose the best quality ones to edit and send to my clients. I am not able to show all of the images taken because I would have to edit all of them as I do not send unedited photos to clients, but trust that I put a lot of effort into making these final decisions and will choose the photos that showcase your most authentic self and genuine expressions.
