Misfits Like Me

Misfits Like Me Inclusive, Empowering St. Louis Photographer for the rest of us Professional misfit. Former paramedic, forever photographer. LGBTQIA+ friendly. Kink positive.

I've spent 20+ years capturing love stories, but my real passion? Celebrating the beautifully unconventional souls who've never quite fit the mold. At mIsFiTs Like ME, I create empowering, intimate photography for free spirits, rebels, and anyone who's ever felt like an outsider. Because the world doesn't need more "perfect"—it needs more you. S*x worker safe space. All bodies, all identities, all stories welcome. Let's make art that makes you feel like the badass you are. 📸✨

“Bo***ir doesn’t have to look polished to count.” It can look like a white shirt, a black hat, and a little rebellion under a pink neon sign. We make space for your real edges—no performance, no weird mold to squeeze into. Consent first. Always.
What would your version of “I’m here” look like?

St. Louis Bo***ir Photography: Being Seen Without Editing
You have been told, probably more than once, that the camera adds ten pounds — as if the problem were the camera. You have been told to wait until you’re smaller, tighter, more finished, more ready, as though readiness were a destination you could finally reach if you just tried a little harder. Sacred Authenticity...

“Myth: bo***ir has to behave.”

Not here. We make room for the sharp edges, the softness, the glitter, the leather, the holy weird. You do not have to perform pretty for us. Consent-first. No-pressure. No fake smiling at the camera like it owes you money.

This is sacred authenticity with teeth.

What part of you would you never sand down for a photo?

“Pretty” is overrated. You want to be seen — sharp edges, soft places, all of it. Not polished into someone else. Not edited down. We make room for you, consent-first, no performance. Sacred authenticity with a little bite.

What does being seen feel like to you?

What a Kink-Friendly Photographer in St. Louis Actually Looks Like
Someone told you that what you want is too much. That the way you think about your body, about desire, about the particular shape your inner life takes — that it needs to be dialed back, explained, or apologized for before anyone else can look at it. That was a lie. What you want is...

“You don’t have to perform to be photographed.” We start plain, let you set the pace, and keep consent in the room. Your pause cue matters. Your no matters. Your yes does too. That’s the work — not pressure, not a show. Just you, seen cleanly. What would make a session feel safe for you? ***irWithBoundaries

LGBTQ Bo***ir Photography in St. Louis That Actually Means It
You were told, at some point, that the way you love or the body you live in was the problem — that you needed to be fixed before you could be seen. That was a lie, and not even a particularly creative one. What Matthew Kauffmann has learned across 25 years of doing this work...

“Too edgy for bo***ir”? That’s a myth we hear a lot.

You don’t have to soften your sharp edges to be photographed here. We work consent-first—no performance, just your real self as you are. Neon, lace, a little side-eye. That counts as sacred too.

What part of your style feels most you right now?

Plus Size Bo***ir Photography in St. Louis: You Were Never the Problem
Someone told you your body was the problem. Not the lighting, not the lens, not the culture that decided a narrow set of measurements was the baseline for beauty — your body. That lie got repeated enough times that it started to feel like a fact. Sacred Authenticity is the practice of being witnessed exactly...

You have been told that what you want is too much. That the things you find beautiful — the rope, the ritual, the carefully negotiated surrender or command — are something to be managed, explained away, or kept in a locked folder on your phone. You have been told this so many times that some...
