  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Hardin, IL

With over 6 years of experience and 4 years shooting professionally, I bring passion, flexibility, and a strong customer service background to every session. I began in nature and architecture photography before discovering my love for capturing people. Since then, I’ve photographed weddings, concerts, corporate shoots, and events for brands like Title Boxing and Mercedes of Chesterfield. My portfolio includes maternity, engagement, senior portraits, boudoir, and charity events such as Pedal the Cause and 5 Acres Animal Shelter.

We have worked with SAJ Media Group for some of the most special milestones in our lives — our engagement, wedding, and maternity photos — and they have been absolutely amazing every single time. They are an awesome team: incredibly kind, always willing to listen, and so easy to work with. From start to finish, the experience has been seamless, professional, and deeply personal. They truly take the time to understand your vision, make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and capture the most authentic, beautiful moments. Their creativity, attention to detail, and ability to capture pure emotion is unmatched. We love that they don’t just take pictures — they tell a story. Each session has given us timeless images we’ll treasure forever. We couldn’t recommend SAJ Media Group more for anyone wanting photographs that are as meaningful as they are stunning.

I am a wedding photographer based in St. Louis, Missouri. I have been doing wedding photography for about 5 years now. Before this I worked for media production company doing 3D animations and product photography.

Shawn took our wedding photos last summer and he did a beautiful job. We felt so lucky to have a photographer who not only prepared us for what to expect but also put us at ease throughout the day. He gave us a ton of creative ideas for photos and was so patient with everyone. He made both our families feel comfortable in front of the camera and that is saying a lot! But what we really loved was how amazing the photos turned out. We were completely wowed at the quality of the photos - he caught everything we wanted and so much more. They are a beautiful reminder of love we felt on our wedding day.

Ally was amazing, we talked a couple times before our wedding, and then there she was early and ready to go for our ceremony! She did a great job understanding what we were looking for, which was mostly documentary style photography of the ceremony, and family portraits afterwards. High winds and hot temps and very bright overhead sunlight, and yet our pictures are stunning!! Everyone looks so good, and she captured our happiness perfectly. Thank you Ally for these forever memories, we could not have asked for a better experience.

Unique Visions Photography by Laura was an absolute pleasure to work with for our Family of 5 .

The quality of their work and value was outstanding - the pictures turned out lovely, they had great ideas for unique shots, and were very patient in working with our young kids and newborn baby. Laura was able to get our newborn into really cute poses and he stayed quiet and content the entire time. She also expertly handled juggling our two young kids along with the newborn for some adorable sibling and family photos. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories Unique Visions Photography captured of our special day.

Hi I'm Sam! Congratulations on your engagement! What an exciting chapter in your life! When I’m not behind the lens, you can usually find me bossing my husband around and trying to keep up with my 3 wild children Kate, Jack and Luke. ​I am a natural light, true to color, documentary style wedding & portrait photographer, bringing a playful and authentic vibe to every session. I live for those candid, unscripted moments. When couples choose me to capture their big day, it’s a true honor—because once the celebration is over, the only thing left to relive those memories are your photos. Happy Planning ;)

My husband and I got engaged in 2023 and had planned for our wedding to be in July of 2025. For two years one of our biggest challenges was finding a photographer that was in our budget, that would still provide us with the perfect product we had invisioned in our minds. We had searched high and low finding MANY photographers that will say they can adjust their packages to fit our budget, and still somehow come up with a total of 4000 dollars. Then we found Sam. I was hesitant at first because I wanted a specific style I hadn’t seen in her galleries, a more sultry- whimsical- cinematic/ dramatic candid feel. However when I brought that up to Sam she had reassured me that her range of editorial styles and shooting styles was very large as she’s been doing this for YEARS, and had sent me some separate more recent shots she had taken to prove that. We had talked very in detail for days about the hours ineeded from her, pricing, I also explained she would be traveling (which is never a problem for Sam. She loves traveling! ) and we had made a very well customized package trimmed to fit my hours and budget. In the end I received ALL the pictures taken edited exactly how we wanted them. On the wedding day Sam did an amazing job of helping, taking charge of things, and making sure all of our needs were met. I swear she was half wedding planner half photographer. If I needed people to do something she made it happen if I needed people to start getting ready for pictures-she was on it. Her time management is absolutely insane and such a blessing to have on your wedding day. She had some of the best ideas I’ve ever heard when it came to certain poses I wanted accomplished or specific visions I had. She was energetic, hilarious, and made sure everyone had the best time taking these pictures. I couldn’t recommend Sam enough. She truly is a photography wizard and will have all of your wedding day dreams come true.

I’ve captured over 300 beautiful love stories in the STL area and beyond since 2011. Creating timeless images with an energetic and colorful style. My clients are from a variety of backgrounds. I’ve had the pleasure of capturing anything from a small same sex elopement to a 600 guest traditional Palestinian wedding, and everything in between!

As a wedding planner in St. Louis for the past nine years, I have recommended Lillian to many couples looking for crisp, colorful, and bright images of their big day. Lillian has an eye for whimsy and adds an artistic expression to her posed images. Lillian is super relaxed, easy to work with, and loves fun-loving couples that aren't afraid to think "outside the box." One of my favorites in the area.

Whether you want to invite your closest family and friends or celebrate with the two of you. I believe love is love and it comes in many great and true forms.

When we had an unexpected change to our plans for our wedding just a couple weeks before our big day, I found Michaela and she was a saving grace! She was very professional, took in a few of the things that I really wanted to capture and took them to a new level, and ultimately photographed our wedding better than I could have imagined. She was extremely reasonable in price. I am definitely booking her again when we get pictures done.

In my 10+ years of experience documenting weddings, one thing has remained the same - I approach each wedding that I photograph with the same passion and dedication as I would document my very own. I believe that you deserve to have your day captured in a way that is as unique as you are, and you can rest assured that my combined education and tenured wedding photography experience ensures that I have both the technical and creative experience needed to truly bring your vision to life.

Brigitte is FANTASTIC and her work simply speaks for itself. I was looking for a timeless and classic photographer and I got just that. Her photos are a great mix of candid and natural, and beautifully styled, and her editing style is tough to come across (bright and colorful). I was also extremely drawn to her black and whites photos, and THRILLED!!! to have a collection of them. I feel like every single one of my photos belong in a Vogue magazine. Brigitte was great to work with - flexible and accommodating. She traveled to New York to take our engagement photos! My wedding day was a huge celebration and full of happiness and great vibes - looking back at my album put me right back on my wedding day and made me want to experience it all over again! (It's only been 3 months!) I could go on and on about specifics, but the photos really do speak for themselves. Brigitte was my #1 vendor. I have never felt as beautiful as I have on my wedding day, and now I have a million photos to remind me of it. My family and friends have all raved about the quantity and quality of my photos. I could not recommend Brigitte enough.
