The Best Fine Art Wedding Photographers in St. Louis, MO

Photography became personal to me through loss and the reminder that life is fleeting. After losing two of my best friends in high school, photos became more than images. They became memories I deeply treasure. I’ve been a self-made photographer since 2019, and in 2020 I spent a year in Atlanta second shooting luxury weddings, refining my craft and style. I later moved back home to Salem, IL to be close to family and now proudly serve the Southern Illinois and St. Louis areas, capturing meaningful moments with intention, joy, and heart.

I'm Katie, a fine art photographer based in St. Louis, who takes a light + airy + photojournalistic approach to capturing all the natural, beautiful moments that happen throughout your day. I truly love your wedding and all the details you have put into planning it and can't wait to hear all about your day. From the beginning, we will get to know each other with an engagement session, and I will help you organize your timeline and provide my professional guidance to make sure every detail and moment is beautifully captured.

Hi, I’m Sadie! 🤍 I create timeless, romantic imagery inspired by beautiful natural light, intentional composition, and authentic emotion. My style blends fine art photography with classic portraits to capture the meaningful moments, genuine connections, and details that make your wedding day uniquely yours. I’m passionate about creating a calm, enjoyable experience while helping couples feel comfortable in front of the camera. I would love the opportunity to capture your story and create images you’ll treasure for years to come.

My name is Samantha and I am the owner of SKH Photography. I take pride in showcasing my style on professional photography. I understand that everyone has an independent expression of who they are. My goal is to capture the unique quality and personality of every individual I photograph. Being able to capture who my clients are and the memories they are making is what I truly love about taking pictures. My passion for photography started in 2013 after I graduated high school. After that I started working with a local photographer who took me under her wing and helped me pursue my passion and I started my business in 2014.

Hey hey! I'm Becca and I’m probably the most camera-shy person you’ll ever meet! I admit, becoming a photographer is an interesting choice for someone who isn’t good in front of the camera, but I believe this weakness is the exact reason why I’ve become a candid and authentic photographer. Since I would hate for anyone I work with to feel uncomfortable, I’ve perfected the art of making you forget all about the camera. You’ll get to know me on a personal level and working with me won’t feel like a business transaction – but rather like hanging out with a friend who happens to be really good at capturing you just the way you are.

I started this journey as a sophomore in high school with a love for capturing moments and memories, because they are SO important. I’ve grown throughout the years of weddings + portrait sessions and come to adore this “job” of creating and curating memories for my clients. It’s a passion I pursue every single day.

I’m based in St. Louis and have spent over a decade photographing weddings and people. Over time, my work has settled into a blend of documentary observation and editorial sensibility, guided more by instinct and attention than by trends. I work with both film and digital photography, choosing each for what it does best. Film brings a sense of familiarity and softness. Digital allows for flexibility and precision. Together, they create a body of work that feels honest, considered, and lasting. That perspective and the way photos get made didn’t come from a single moment. It’s been shaped slowly, over time.

I love capturing the authentic emotion and real moments from a wedding day, as well as all of the little details. Being able to capture these for couples so that they can have heirlooms to treasure always is what I really adore about photography.
