Stephanie Hanes is a Los Angeles–based prop stylist and set designer. A seasoned stylist, she is sought after for her confident use of color, pattern, and texture and for creating elevated yet effortless environments and set builds. Versatile on set, Stephanie specializes in props for food and beverage, product, lifestyle, and interior styling for both established and emerging brands.
Originally from Western NY, she earned a BFA in photography from Purchase College, studying non‑silver printing and large‑format photography. She then moved to NYC where she worked in photo production, sparking her interest in props + set design. After 10 years as a lead stylist for magazines, advertising campaigns, and cookbooks, she relocated to California in 2018 expanding her client list locally and around the country. Stephanie prides herself in being able to find the perfect prop or set piece for any project and is often found creating custom surfaces and objects for many of her shoots in her LA studio.
When not on set, Stephanie can be found rummaging through flea markets, studying SoCal native plants, and rooting for her beloved Buffalo Bills. She lives in Los Angeles with her fiancé, John, and her cats, Boomer and Spike.
