Awarded Best of Zola
“I couldn’t stop staring at them during the vows. The bride looked radiant, and the groom’s eyes glimmered with joy. You could feel the depth of their bond in every gesture. The sun shone through the stained glass windows, painting the room in a glow that felt like it was made just for them. Every detail, from the music to the flowers, reflected care and thoughtfulness. The bridesmaids and groomsmen were teary-eyed and laughing at the same time. The reception was filled with heartfelt speeches and endless dancing. By the end of the night, I was exhausted from smiling and crying simultaneously. I drove home thinking about how rare it is to witness a love so beautiful and true.”

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.

“Katie and Mike photographed our wedding last summer, and did the most phenomenal job. Communication with them was super clear and seamless from the get-go. Katie was available and so professional and easy. They were super chill and easygoing during the rehearsal dinner and day of the wedding. It felt like we could ask them for whatever we needed - they were willing to do whatever they could to make the perfect day happen for us. They took the ideas we had -- for first look, or golden hour photos -- and added their aesthetic sense in a way that made us feel like our photos were out of a movie.They captured our vibe unbelievably well; the pictures were absolutely gorgeous and exceptionally intimate. Even the Instagram post Katie shared of our wedding with sneak peaks was to songs that mean a lot to us, and she didn't even know! We didn't get a videographer, and have no regrets about that because the pictures speak for themselves. Every single picture has a point of view and tells a story. Vein and Vessel could not have captured our story more accurately. We are forever grateful to Katie and Mike.”

A queer, Army-veteran photographer with wild red hair drawn to light, laughter, and the beauty of now —sunlight slipping across the train of a wedding dress, the tears being wiped away during your ceremony, and the quiet moments of in-between. My camera has become my solace and an extension of who I am. I love using natural light to capture those "blink-and-you'll-miss-it-moments" - the giggles, wild hair, the m&ms on your child's face. You know, the real stuff. I believe the best photos come from the moments you don't plan; the moments that showcase real life.

“Morgan was an absolute dream to work with. I messaged her, explaining that my fiancé (now husband) and I were extremely camera shy. Like, drop to the ground when a camera turns toward us, shy. She was up for the challenge. She was prompt with communication, explained everything extremely well and was an overall blast to work with. Our photos came out amazing! Even with rain, she was able to capture great shots. We took a walk in the downtown area of my city, and Morgan was able to adapt and come up with great ideas. We even went into a book store (unplanned) and she came up with great ideas! We are so happy that we chose Morgan as our photographer!”

Love is not about how many days, months, or years you’ve been together. It’s about how much you love one another every single day. It’s in the small moments, the laughter shared over nothing, the quiet comfort of holding hands, the way two souls learn to move as one. Love is both gentle and strong, a promise whispered and a bond unbreakable. It grows deeper with time, teaching us patience, forgiveness, and the beauty of choosing each other, again and again.

“From our first conversation with VJ Weddings, we felt at ease knowing we were in capable hands. The team was relaxed and genuinely interested in understanding our vision, offering thoughtful ideas that made our engagement photoshoot and wedding day feel more personal. Their professionalism shined through in every interaction—they were responsive, organized, and easy to work with leading up to the big day. On our wedding, they moved through the moments with such ease that we almost forgot they were there capturing everything. The final photos are stunning and truly showcase the quality and artistry they bring to their work. We'd recommend VJ Weddings to any couple looking for photographers who are both talented and a pleasure to be around.”

Let us make the planning process a bit easier by providing guidance, helping plan your wedding day timeline, and entrusting the coverage of your special day is covered by a team of photographers and videographers working in unison to create art that will be cherished forever.

“Kyle and Rachel made documenting our wedding an incredibly easy, personal, and enjoyable experience. Not only are they exceptionally talented photographers and videographers, but they are also genuinely wonderful people. They captured every important moment beautifully, producing high-quality photos and videos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We truly couldn’t have been happier with our experience. What meant even more to us was that they went above and beyond anything we could have expected. After learning about our beloved dog, Kona, they graciously photographed a special “mini wedding ceremony” so she could be part of our story before she passed away. This wasn’t included in our original contract, but they did it simply because they cared. Kyle and Rachel don’t just document weddings,they preserve memories that will last a lifetime. We are incredibly grateful for their kindness, professionalism, and the genuine care they showed throughout the entire process. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”

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!”

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! :)”

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
“Isaac was absolutely fantastic to work with, and we couldn't be happier we chose Love Knot Photography for our wedding. From the start, what stood out was how much he cared about capturing the actual feeling of the day rather than just working through a checklist of poses. He and his co-photographer had a great eye for the in-between moments — the little glances, the laughter, the chaos of getting ready — alongside all the formal shots we expected. Looking through our gallery afterward, so many of our favorite photos are ones we didn't even know were being taken. He was also just easy and calm to have around on a hectic day, which mattered more than we realized it would. Weddings move fast, and having a photographer who was unobtrusive but always exactly where he needed to be took one more thing off our minds. One of the things we appreciated most: he and his co-photographer stayed well past the time included in our package, all the way until we started dancing. That extra stretch of time meant they captured some of the best — and funniest — photos of the whole night, catching our friends and family completely in their element on the dance floor. It wasn't something we asked for; they just wanted to make sure they got the shots. Isaac also went well beyond the package once it came to editing. Our contract included 300 retouched photos, but we ended up with around 550 edited images and 717 total files between web and print resolution, including alternate crops and versions of several favorites. It's clear he genuinely cared about giving us as much of the day as possible, not just fulfilling a contract. We're so glad we chose Love Knot Photography, and we'll be treasuring these photos for years to come. If you're looking for a photographer who will genuinely capture your day rather than just document it, Isaac is who you want.”
