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! :)

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.

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!

Planning a wedding does not need to be stressful! Collectively we have captured over 250 weddings. 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!

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.

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

I have a formal background in theater and have been immensely privileged to work and train all over the world.

WE LOVE MJC IMAGE !!!! Mary is the absolute best !!! With any questions we had Mary responded instantly, she was fabulous with communication. If I overloaded her with questions, as every bride does, she would squeeze me in quickly with a zoom or ft call. She is super busy so her quality of response time was so appreciated. The second I saw Mary’s work, I knew I had to have her photograph my wedding. My husband and I had never done a photo shoot before our wedding, so we did an engagement shoot to get a little practice in before the wedding. Mary made us feel so at ease, we thought it would be awkward, Nope! Mary instantly felt like a friend we knew forever. Not to mention her pictures from both engagement shoot and wedding day are my favorite pictures ever taken. If you’re looking for a photographer Mary is your best option !

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.
