Offering Wedding & Portrait Photography in the St Louis, Missouri area

Having professional photos taken is a very intimate, vulnerable experience, so it's incredibly important to have that BFF vibe with your photographer. Not only does it make everything so much more fun, it helps you feel much more comfortable around the camera. One of the most important parts of my job as your photographer is t

o capture the real, authentic you, and lets face it, who doesn't get awkward in front of the camera? I've been referred to as a ninja more than once, which means I'm capturing those 'in the moment' expressions and memories without you even realizing I'm there! For the more formal, posed portraits, I'll walk you through every step and coach you along the way, so you never have that 'I don't know what I'm supposed to do' feeling. We'll also style every detail of your session to capture your unique personality, from location, to wardrobe, to poses and expressions. For my wedding couples, I'm also an invaluable resource for anything wedding related! Can't decide which shoes to wear? Need someone to remind you that the color of your napkins isn't going to make or break the day?

To the rest of the world, today is Pi Day… 3.14 and all that math-y goodness.

But here in STL? It’s 314 Day, and as would say, we’re from The Lou and we’re proud.

From iconic landmarks like the to hidden neighborhood gems like on , this city is packed with the kind of spots that make photographers like me very happy.

Feeling pretty lucky to call the 314 home and to spend my days capturing your stories all over this beautiful city.

Happy 314 Day, STL.

Four years felt like forever. Until suddenly… it didn’t.

The last first day is already behind them.
Now the “lasts” start stacking up.
Last season. Last homecoming. Last bell.

Senior photos happen right in the middle of that strange in-between. Not really a kid anymore. Not fully launched into the world yet.

Just this version of them. Right now.

And years from now, these photos will bring it all rushing back.

March 5, 2021. Right in the thick of COVID. Masks on. The world a little upside down.

Deanna & Tyler were married at the courthouse in Edwardsville, and you know what? It was still magic.

Because when it comes down to it, the flowers, the dance floor, the big grand exits… those are beautiful extras. The real headline is two people choosing each other. On purpose. In any circumstance.

They made it special because it was theirs. Simple. Intentional. Proof that love doesn’t wait for perfect timing. It just shows up and says “I do.”

Happy 5th wedding anniversary, love birds.

The trees may be bare, but the love? Fully in bloom.

If you’re dreaming of a date when the world slows down and the light feels soft and cinematic, winter might just be your season. And trust me… a little chill in the air only makes the champagne taste better.

Winter brides, I see you. Let’s make magic, just like Katie & Brandon’s best day ever.

I get asked all the time, 'what the heck is a wedding wing woman??'. As one of the first vendors you book, and the vendor that is with you ALLLLL day, I feel I have a duty to be a resource for my couples when it comes to planning and living out your best day ever. Some take the 'fly on the wall' approach, I take the 'if I can make something better for my couple, I'm gonna' approach.

Rachel & Tom’s engagement session featured their favorite hangouts, their go-to activities, and Cooper living his absolute best life.
Wedding day: same energy… just add vows, champagne, and a dance floor.

If it matters to you, it matters in your photos. Your neighborhood bar? In. Your Sunday morning coffee ritual? Let’s go. Your slightly chaotic, very loved fur child? Heck. Yes.

I’m not here to give you cookie-cutter photos. I’m here to document your little world exactly how it feels… loud, sentimental, playful, a tiny bit unhinged in the best way.

So tell me the spots. The hobbies. The pup’s fave treats.
We’re telling a love story that actually looks like you.
