My style is artful, narrative and real. Yes, photography is about light, but it is also so much about relationship. I make the photography fun, light and effortless. It is woven into the day rather than taking you out of your experience. I capture wedding photography like a documentarian and I offer gentle posing suggestions and conversation topics to keep things feeling natural and easy.

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! :)

Brooke did amazing. Since day one when we first met during our engagement photos. She communicates very well and made sure we were happy with our shots. Shes excellent with something I call “over communication”. It’s a good characteristic/quality to have. When someone wants many yes, no, maybes, etc from you… stuff is always crystal clear. We had multiple meetings with her over zoom/Google meets to keep things clear for our wedding day. Everything was planned out with our photos, family photos, bridal party, etc. not only did she did a great job, she was more of a friend and someone we could rely on during our most important day of our lives. She was right there by our side and was an essential piece to how successful our wedding day went. We’d recommend Brooke to anyone looking to have some organized, on top of it, and great at what she does!

My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Emily Novara Photography provided excellent communication through the entire engagement, wedding planning, and day-of process.

She did an incredible job on the wedding day, arriving early and not only taking amazing photographs and poses, but also keeping us organized and on track the entire day, which was crucial with a party of 20 adults.

I'm a film & digital photographer based in the Midwest but traveling internationally to capture heartfelt moments and authentic love stories with a cinematic and nostalgic feel. I started out with travel photography but my passion for portraiture and timeless romance led me to specialize in creative, artful weddings, destination weddings, and intimate couples shoots for intentional couples who want something beyond the traditional, cookie cutter photo vibe.

If you are considering using Stacey as your wedding photographer, DO IT! We had a very DIY wedding and only hired a vendor for photography and for the actual venue, I could not be happier with our choice to hire Stacey. She is the perfect mix of professional, friendly, and kind. From our initial interview, to our brainstorming session, to the day of the wedding, Stacey lead us through what we could expect while giving us the space to be creative. After looking through the sneak peak, I can confirm that Stacey captured us as ourselves, goofy and loving and real. Hiring Stacey is easily one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process! Do it!

If I could give Tony and his team more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. We had a destination wedding in Sedona and took jeeps up a long, rugged trail to get married at the top of a mountain. Tony and his team were nothing short of incredible from start to finish. Not only are they insanely talented at both photo and video, but Tony himself is an experienced off-road driver with his own jeep…and thank goodness for that! He helped guide our entire wedding party through the trail safely, kept everyone laughing, and made the whole adventure an absolute blast. As a photographer myself, I’m very picky about imagery, and Tony exceeded every expectation I had. His eye, his creativity, his attention to detail, and his ability to capture genuine emotion are all unmatched. Our photos are breathtaking, better than anything I ever could have imagined. He’s energetic, knowledgeable, fun to be around, and truly passionate about what he does. Hiring Tony was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you’re considering him for your special day, especially an adventurous one… don’t hesitate. You won’t find anyone better.

Katie Forbis | St. Louis-based, available anywhere | In my 18+ years of experience, I have found that the absolute best photos happen when couples are fully present in the moment - enjoying each other, their guests, and themselves. For this reason, I take mostly hands-off approach on wedding days. I do my best not to interfere with the events of the day, or direct the events of the day - instead, I document them as they unfold.

We truly couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer than Katie! She photographed both our welcome dinner and wedding day in May 2026, and every single image is incredible perfection - aesthetically beautiful and real. Her vision and style are truly art - She captured not just how everything looked, but how it felt. She genuinely exceeded all of our expectations! One of the things we loved most was how natural the entire experience was. We never felt like we were constantly posing or being pulled away from the moment. Katie has such a calm, warm presence that made us feel completely at ease, and she captured so many genuine, beautiful moments without ever making anything feel forced. We are honestly blown away by how amazing the photos are, along with everyone else we have shown them to! If you're looking for someone who creates timeless, artistic images that truly capture the essence of your wedding and loved ones, who is also such a pleasure to be around, we can't recommend Vein Vessel enough to anyone.

For nine years, I’ve had the honor of standing in the quiet before the aisle walk, the deep breath before “I do,” the champagne pop that sounds like a starting gun for forever. Wedding photography isn’t just what I do. It’s what I’ve built, refined, and poured my heart into year after year. Your wedding day is not a photoshoot. It’s a living, breathing story unfolding in real time. My job is to preserve it exactly as it felt. The nervous hand squeezes. The belly laughs. The mascara-streaked hugs. The way your partner looks at you when they think no one else is watching.

I felt truly comfortable, confident, and beautiful—something every bride hopes for on such a special day. Never afraid to take any shot—and that creativity shines through in every photo. You captured not just how everything looked, but how it felt. Thank you for creating such a joyful environment. I trusted you completely, and the results are beyond anything I could have imagined. Any bride would be lucky to have you capturing their day.

Michayla Slone Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves East Carondelet, IL

Hello. I’m Michayla Slone, a wedding + lifestyle photographer based in St. Louis, MO. I love traveling, my husband, my pup Rosie, and good conversations over coffee. I believe love is the most important thing. It’s what fuels us to our future, keeps us going on the bad days, and travels with us throughout time. My greatest joy is capturing days where love is at the forefront; where two people commit to a life full of passion and adventure. My work is more than just photography. It’s capturing history - your history.

We hired Michayla as our wedding photographer and still can’t fully express how happy we are with her and her work for both our engagement shoot and wedding photography! We are NOT the most natural people to photograph but Michayla helped us feel so natural and at ease both during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. When doing family pictures she was so on top of it and made it such an efficient process which only made the day better as nobody was grumpy about standing around taking photos forever. We loved how she captured the “in between moments”, they are truly the ones we will cherish the most because we get to remember those fun little details of the day. We also had a second photographer as part of our package who happened to be Michayla’s husband Logan and he was just as easy to work with and only made the experience better! If your wedding is coming up and you need a photographer inquire with Michayla, she is incredible!

I cannot express how thankful I am to have booked Kara for my wedding day! Kara not only produces absolutely stunning photos but she also helped us plan out the whole day by creating a timeline and made me feel so stress-free throughout the whole process. We decided not to get a wedding coordinator and I do not regret that decision because Kara was so helpful with coordinating and making recommendations. On the day of the wedding, Kara stuck to the schedule ensured that we did not get behind. I was worried that photos would take a long time in the June heat and that it would be a stressful part of the day for me, but with Kara it was fast and painless! I have since been in another wedding where the photographer was not organized and did not take charge to direct people in photos and it was a complete mess. As a result, the wedding party was over an hour late to the reception...I cannot recommend Kara enough! Her husband, Daniel, is a second photographer for the day and took photos of the groomsmen while Kara was with the bridesmaids before the first look. Kara and Daniel were both so great to work with. Choosing a photographer is such an important part of your wedding day and I promise that you will regret working with Kara!
