Lion Of The Valley Photography

Saint Louis, MO

  • Starts at $3,250

There are three of us behind Lion of the Valley. Yeah, we're industry professionals, but we're also friends that started this business together. And we feel like that's a really huge benefit to you. Because we love working together and we love doing it with you.

Bill, Dayton, and Calen were hands down the best possible choice my wife and I could have made for our wedding photos. They were fun, easy to work with, they calmed us down, helped choreograph some key pieces of our wedding day, and the photos we have are absolutely stunning. I couldn't have dreamed up a better crew. I loved that they were easy going and took pictures of us in fun places -- walking around our old neighborhood, in our favorite date-night spot, in front of the pool at the Last Hotel -- and made us laugh and feel relaxed while doing it. We get compliments on our photos often, and while we haven't put our album together yet, I know it will be incredible because of the quality of the photos we have. I can't recommend them highly enough. Choose Lion of the Valley, you won't be disappointed!

Brea Photography

Saint Louis, MO
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,600

Our goal is to capture the intangible qualities of your wedding/event/family and tell a complete story through a series of moments. Our photography style is fun, upbeat and editorial. While we’re careful to capture all of the important details, we also watch what unfolds naturally, capturing the most authentic and beautiful moments you share with the people around you

Brea is an incredible photographer and human and I am so glad we hired her to take our engagement photos and photograph our wedding! She was enthusiastic about all of our ideas and it felt like she was committed to making both the engagement shoot and wedding day feel like a celebration of us and our relationship. She was responsive, really put us at ease, and went above and beyond for us, especially on our wedding day. You really spend a LOT of time with your photographer on your wedding day, and Brea was such a delight and kept the vibes positive the entire day! For our engagement pictures, Brea photographed us both at our local rock climbing gym (a shared passion) and at the bar located in the same building and we have so many beautiful and creative shots that truly feel like US! For our wedding, Brea got amazing pictures of us both posed AND interacting with guests! We even had a small "bike parade" with a few friends in between the ceremony and reception and Brea got incredible action shots that helped us celebrate and capture our day in a way that felt unique to us. When we started to fall behind in the schedule, Brea LEPT into coordinator mode and helped make sure things stayed on time and running smoothly! I can never thank her enough for that! Basically, Brea is the best and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her, especially if you want someone who will capture what really makes you YOU in her photographs! :)

Born and raised in the Hudson Valley, New York. I’ve always had my finger on the pulse with anything involving art. Spending 12 years doing hair at top salons and my entire life composing music professionally, it wasn’t until about 7 years ago working on my first photo shoot that I realized I had a “problem”. This new found love in my life was capturing moments in time for amazing people. In everything I do, the story tells it all. Having the privilege to share and work with so many incredible people has been a part my story. I can’t wait to be apart of your life’s moments that tell the story for time to come.

Hi! I'm Sandra, a wedding photographer serving the St. Louis area, recovering designer, wife, twin mom, and life-long nerd. On any given day, you can find me chasing my little boys, (yes, they're identical!) writing or editing on my laptop, or watching sci-fi shows on the couch with my husband. My goal as a photographer is not just to take pretty pictures, but to capture emotion, connection, and who you really are. I do what I do to capture relaxed, candid, beautiful moments instead of overly posed or cookie-cutter imagery. I find the best way to foster the connections that result in those genuine images is to invest in people over things.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we started planning our wedding I knew that I wanted to work with Isaac. I had been following his work on Instagram for a few years after my friend got married and I always love the energy and emotion he can capture in his photography. The photos are bright and colorful and feel very natural. After meeting Isaac, he is one of the nicest people and it was a real pleasure to have him at our wedding. And the photos turned out just as I had hoped. There are lots of great family shots, the details of the bridal party getting ready, setup and all of our guests enjoying the reception are really fun. And the sunset photos have a magic quality to them. I definitely got so many photos its difficult to decide which ones to print and frame for the wall.

Awarded Best of Zola
2020 was a difficult year for many reasons, but weddings were especially tough to make happen in this calendar year. But what made it even more difficult was having to plan 2 different weddings. The first being a 10 month planned wedding in Joshua Tree, California, until we had to cancel it due to COVID in November a month before it was supposed to happen. My now husband and I scrambled to reset for a smaller ceremony in Illinois instead to allow at least his family to attend and have it at his sister's home in Huntley, IL. We only had one month to reset. One of the most important things for us was photography, and although we had spent most of our savings on the cancelled wedding and we had no hope in recovering most of that back or even soon enough to help with the 2nd wedding, we knew we had to put forth the money and make the right choice for a photographer to document our day as best as possible so that our love ones who couldn't make it could experience that day through the right lens. Justin Vaughn of JVaughn Photography LLC was the right lens and so much more! He worked very closely with us via online google meetings, with a minor setback, which was we couldn't have an in person engagement photo session with him (since we were based in Wyoming and wouldn't arrive in Illinois until closer to the ceremony). Justin prefers to complete an engagement photo session, which comes already included in a lot of his packages, before the wedding to get to know us as a couple and make sure we get the shots we prefer. However even without the engagement session, through our online meetings, we were able to discuss who we are and Justin had that personal touch as though we were talking to an old friend. We established the narrative and story telling that we hoped to have for the day. Justin took detailed notes and had a list of shots to take for the day. But his improvisation and artistic eye was also excellent and he captured moments that we had never thought of that were so beautiful and amazing. In addition to the photography he also did minor videography to provide us a highlight reel, which was beyond what we expected! Throughout the day he was also very much a ninja in capturing the right moments beautifully without obstructing the views of guests present. I would recommend him for any photography need, he truly is an artist that captures the moments you wanted and so much more!

I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Lucia is the photographer you want at your wedding. She was a gem leading up to the day and a wonderful cheerleader and support on the day. Her photos are the ONLY pictures I have ever liked of myself. As a plus-size bride, that is saying something. Her attention to detail as she captured the unique features of our day are so special! Having someone you can trust to capture all the work you have put in is important, and Lucia showed up and absolutely gave it her all! We highly recommend Lucia, and we hope to work with her again for additional photoshoots!

A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

Lissa is the BEST wedding photographer around! The photos of our special day turned out amazing.

Hi! My name is Jacqueline and I've been in the photography industry for almost a decade. I believe that when I pick up my camera, I am there to tell a story. On your wedding day, I am there to document a new chapter of your love story. I capture all the intimate moments of your day, and then some!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot even begin to describe how amazing it was to work with Jacqueline for our wedding this past weekend. She was extremely easy-going, communicative, professional, and always quick to respond for the entire year leading up to our wedding. So it came as no surprise that on our wedding day she absolutely crushed it. She captured our day so seamlessly. She was never in the way, never made us uncomfortable and just blended into the background in all the right ways. She made the wedding party and family photos process quick and painless which I know from experience can sometimes prove to be a disaster or just unorganized and chaotic at weddings. I was even MORE blown away when she delivered some photos the morning after our wedding after probably being up super late after getting home from our wedding. Talk about going above and beyond and exceeding expectations!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer to play such a huge part in our big day and I would recommend Jacqueline to ANYONE. Thank you so much Jacqueline!!!!! - Ben and Lindsay

Akiem has built a young and successful career as a content creator in the professional sports industry. He has worked with respectable brands including, USA Hockey, USA Soccer, NFL Flag, RISE and more. However, during 2020 COVID put a stop on sports, and that allowed him to discover a new passion- an undeniable love for wedding photography and videography “I want my clients to experience my love for creativity and storytelling through serving them on the most important day of their lives.”

Awarded Best of Zola
We were looking for a photographer on a short timeline- only a couple of weeks until the wedding. A'kiem was willing to work with us on the short timeline and was very fair with pricing! He was timely with his communication and was easy to get a hold of. He is talented in photographing in many different styles/vibes and catered the photos to the style we prefer. I would highly recommend working with him. We did not get to use his services for videography, but with the quality of photography he provided, I am sure his videography would also be fantastic. Highly recommend!

31 year old dog loving, anime watching, fun loving photographer here. Everyone is welcome with me. Sexual preference/orientation, race, religion... I am here for whoever needs me. I want all of my couples to feel safe and respected, to know that they can fully be themselves with nothing but love and acceptance on my end.

We had our wedding in September, did indoor and outdoor photos, and they all turned out amazing! Makenzie was so helpful and dealt with so many last minute changes to accommodate what we needed. Covid threw a wrench in so many things and she was there to help the whole way through. Got through our huge family photos quickly, made us laugh, made us feel beautiful.

I began, 2017; ‘Editorial Fashion’ working with modeling agencies. Then doing my 1st wedding by request in Taiwan for a Luxury Editorial style wedding. I completely fell in love with wedding imagery and the process that all goes into the experience. From there ‘I’ became ‘we’ as my team grew. Having refined our Luxury Editorial Image over the years!

Britney was helpful in several ways, I couldn’t imagine my wedding day without her! She over delivered! The end results are amazing, literally could not have found a better photographer and group to be there to capture my wedding day. Highly recommend talking with Britney.

She is so kind and caring, she took care of us every step of the way from engagement session through the big day and I knew without a doubt we wouldn’t be disappointed by booking her. Sure enough, Brit is a friend even months after our wedding and her pictures are ones I will cherish for the rest of my life.
