Owensville, MO
  • Fine art style

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.

Katie is an exceptional photographer, our families and us can not imagine what our wedding photos and engagement photos would have been like with out her. We started with Katie working on our engagement photos, this was a really special time for us and Katie helped make it even more special. She used the time to capture us but to also work with us on what we were comfortable with and what styles we liked. Throughout the entire time she was always spot on with communication and making sure we were taken care of. Following our engagement photo session she had photos available to us quickly that we could use to start sharing with our families and friends. Everyone we showed was amazed by just how great the photos looked from us to the the composition. Katie has a great way of capturing us while also providing works of art that are great for hanging and decorating. During our engagement session we decided to do throw color powder at each other and it was a fun and playful time for us. Katie was equally as excited and did a great job working with to get this special request captured. Leading up to the wedding day Katie was always right there making sure every detail for the day was figured out well in advance so we did not have to worry about photos on the day of our wedding. She provided guidance on suggested groups of people to take photos and other special moments that we would want to capture. She was very clear about the most efficient way to capture family photos so that we could get to our couples photos and so that our families could get to partying after the ceremony. On the day of we were amazed but just how present she was with all the photos while not being overbearing. We got all the moments we had requested and many that we did not even know to ask for. One of the really special moments that she captured for us was when our 80 year old Grandpa stood up insisting on dancing with our family. Katie hurried from across the dance floor to make sure that she was there to capture that for us. Those are pictures we will treasure for a lifetime and something that could have easily been missed but Katie was there. Throughout the entire process Katie made us feel special and a priority we are so grateful for her and her photos that we will be able to look back and see our special day for the rest of our lifetime. She is an amazing photographer and person, anyone would be beyond lucky to have her capture their once in a lifetime moments.

My background is in posing, fashion photography, lifestyle photography and theme planning - so my ideal couples have vibrant ideas and eccentric visions for their big days and need someone with that type of mind to execute on the visual side! I want your big day to look as cinematic and elegant as you remember it being!

Awarded Best of Zola
We have absolutely loved working with Brad so far! I had a specific vision in mind when searching for a wedding photographer. We were searching for a mix of documentary-style shots that felt timeless, and artistic flair that felt modern and "cool". The Dreamers Eye is just that. I shared my Pinterest board with Brad before we did our engagement shoots and the photos we got back far exceeded our expectations. Our photos are literally Pinterest perfect and I couldn't be more proud to display them anywhere and everywhere. He allowed us to share our own creative ideas for shoots, locations, and poses while also taking direction so we didn't feel like we were completely running the show. We got a couple preview photos the next day after both shoots with the remainder of the photos within the following week. His prices are extremely reasonable for what we've received. The only complaint we have is that we got so many gorgeous photos back it took us days to narrow down to one favorite for our save the dates and a few favorites for our photo book! We have gotten so many compliments from everyone who has seen our engagement photos and we are so excited to have Brad shoot our upcoming rehearsal dinner and wedding! To any couples looking for a fantastic, artistic, professional, timeless-yet-trendy photographer: look no further. I wholeheartedly believe working with The Dreamers Eye is the best investment you can make during your wedding season!

Rebecca Stephenson Photography 

5.0

O'Fallon, MO
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500

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.

Rebecca was INCREDIBLE! My husband and I get very uncomfortable in front of the camera. Cue Rebecca, photography angel. We booked engagement and wedding photos with her and we are ridiculously happy with all of our photos; they are natural yet stunning AND you can tell we are having fun. Rebecca also was 100% down for anything when our wedding plans changed last minute and rolled with the punches all day on our wedding day (late flowers, late bridesmaids, you name it!) which helped keep me calm and stress free the whole day. Hire her, hire her right this second!!

St. Louis, MO
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,500

Katie Forbis | St. Louis-based, available anywhere | What I love most about weddings are the people, the relationships, and the emotions - and that’s exactly what I strive to capture. I'm inspired by light, texture, emotion, movement, and shape. I lightly direct when needed, but when I do I keep it natural and easy. You won’t see me spending an excruciating amount of time posing people down to the inch. I shoot fluidly and I shoot a lot. My goal is to create beautiful images without over-stepping, over-directing, or wearing you out.

The beauty of Katie's photos speak for themselves--they are emotional, artistic, and eye-catching. But what you can't see in the photos is what an amazing person Katie is. She's exactly who you want to have around you on your wedding day. She is calm, easygoing, and confident, and her photos strike the perfect balance between artistic vision and candid spontaneity. It was amazing how she captured our day while still allowing us to be fully present with each other and our guests. We just can't recommend Vein&Vessel enough. - Nick and Norah

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Mary as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to engagement photos to the day of she was so helpful, warm, and organized; she made getting the photos we wanted and being where we needed to be at the right time feel so easy and fun. And the photos speak for themselves; we absolutely love them!!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have admired Steve's beautiful work for years! He has an artistic style that is uniquely his and that comes to him so naturally after years of honing his craft. He has an eye for things that most people wouldn't have seen. I've had the pleasure of getting to work with him several times now and he's so kind and has such a calming presence which is exactly what you want from your wedding photographer/videographer! I'm currently helping my sister plan her wedding and when she got engaged he was the first vendor I sent to her to look at. She was blown away, as I knew she would be, by his work and loved how his wedding videos felt so natural, candid, and also didn't look like every other wedding video. His ability to tell a story both in photograph and video is remarkable. As a wedding photographer, if I had to redo my wedding day, I would without a doubt have Steve there to capture it.

Mahdi was voted our best vendor at our wedding! By us and by friends that got to know him. From our first phone call I was like, man this guy is cool and relaxed. I'm also pretty relaxed but obviously this can change on your wedding day, so having a laid back photographer was perfect for me. He arrived a bit early to set up and we chatted a bit and he went straight to work and my bridal party loved him right away. I would recommend Mahdi to anyone looking someone to perfectly capture their day or even just capture the moment. You will not find a nicer, more professional, or fun person to help you to remember the most important day of your life.

Couples who work with me receive dreamy, cinematic, and emotion-driven photographs of their wedding day. You are a work of art, so why shouldn't your wedding gallery be one as well? I love leveraging unexpected details, spontaneous moments, and movement to create surreal and cinematic photographs that cut right to the emotions you and your partner felt in that moment. As a people-person, it's my joy to connect on a personal level with my clients and serve not just as their photographer — but also as their hype gal, friend, and guide on their wedding day. Thank you for being here! I will pour my heart into our time together.

First of all, please just look at Phoebe’s galleries. Gorgeous, unobstructive composition. She can beautifully capture the emotion, personality, and landscape of a moment without taking away from it. When you do know you’re in the shot, her calming and supportive demeanor make the experience feel natural and relaxed. She is kind and thoughtful- not just to her clients but to everyone gathering for the same purpose that day, be it guest or vendor. You will want to relive your day the way it looked through Phoebe’s lens.

Hi, I'm Samuel! Chicago based wedding and elopement photographer here to give couples a truly relaxed and down to earth experience. Being photographed shouldn't be uncomfortable or boring!  Telling love stories through photos brings me immense joy. 

We were so grateful to Samuel who was able to document our city hall ceremony on a very last minute request during the end of year holidays. (Are you free next weekend?) We were drawn to the documentary style of his work and thought it was a fitting way to remember a special moment in a basement of Chicago's City Hall. Leading up to the day, we texted and chatted about places to do portraits after and Samuel was very patient and helpful in suggesting places that felt right for me and my partner. Not only did he have the inside scoop on what the city hall ceremony was going to be like and what was going to happen, but he was also great to hang out with in line and and get to know better. We both felt very comfortable working with Samuel and the nerves of working with a professional photographer for the first time went out the window. I can only imagine how amazing the experience would be to work with Samuel with more time to prepare or at locations a little less drab than a city hall basement!

Nice to meet you, I’m Alena or lena, whatever you want to call me.

With photography being my full time job, I get to put every single ounce of my being into creating magical images for you to look back on for years to come. That’s really what I’m here for.

I have had Alena as our photographer since 2018! I had been recommended by a friend and had her for our engagement photos, wedding, the birth of our first born, his first birthday, and our second born! If that doesn’t speak for itself. Alena is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and overall a great person, and friend. Her photos aren’t just any photos that you see. She puts time, and hardwork into her editing and it pays off. They’re moody, flirty, fun, intimate. She can do quite literally anything you ask for. No need to worry about being nervous about being in front of her camera, she knows how to pose you and talks to you the entire time. It feels like you’re hanging out with friends and it’s so so enjoyable!

Homeschoolin, Home birthin, and Holistic mama that loves to capture Life and Love in it's truest moments and forms. My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

Working with milkweed moments is a breeze! I was nervous because I have a 3 and 1 year old, and wasn’t sure how they would cooperate. Aubriana made everything go smoothly. She’s great with kids, great with directives on posing, and really made the day so fun! She got all the shots I dreamed of!”. Will be booking her again in the future!

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I recently used Shutter & Sound for my wedding and they were fantastic! The team was super friendly and really skilled at capturing all the important moments without being intrusive. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors which made everything go smoothly. When we got our photos and videos back, we were blown away by the quality and how they managed to capture the feel of our special day perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch wedding photography and videography!

My name is Jillian and I'm a photographer and artist in Kansas City My goal is to capture you. Every couple, family, person is different, and I want to make sure your uniqueness comes through in the images of your special days. My style tends to lean into rich colors and textures. Are you a couple that doesn't want to have a typical wedding? I'm a photographer that doesn't want to give you typical images! I always tear up at hand written vows. I love my partner and my two dogs Moonshine and Chosen One, and my cat Bucket.

Jillian at Youngbird Photo (j.guthrie_photo on Instagram) is such a true joy and delight to work with. Not only did she come to photograph our small May ceremony, but she photographed a first look photo session with us after we canceled the reception!! My dress was in covid lockup in May, so I wasn't able to wear it at the original ceremony. Jillian made sure that we had pictures of the dress, and captured a first look moment for us, and that will forever mean the world to me. She even came over to photograph the centerpieces that we had worked so hard on!! She makes people feel so comfortable and has such an amazing eye for what will make a beautiful shot. She is immensely talented and an absolutely delightful person. And bonus, she works with any budget. She truly believes that every couple deserves beautiful photos, and will work with you, whatever your situation is. Case in point, she's done our engagement photos, our small ceremony photos, and now our first look photos, and in every instance, she went above and beyond for us. I will recommend her forever, and still cannot completely put into words how much she and her photos mean to us!

Springfield, IL

  • Serves Oakdale, IL

At the end of the day, all we have are the stories told about us and the ones we write about ourselves. I love writing about the musings of life and sharing my thoughts with others in conversation and social media posts. I constantly document my own life so I don't forget the big or little moments. Every time I travel to somewhere new I love connecting with those who cross my path, and yet I equally love coming home to my dog. TLDR: sentimental soul, avid movie goer, mental health advocate, and decent chocolate chip cookie maker.

where do i even begin? we were so blessed to have Rachael with us on our special day. we hired Carissa for our wedding photography & chose to have her bring an extra shooter with & BOOM! we somehow got blessed with Rachael as our bonus. i could go on about everything from her amazing personality, the positivity & happiness absolutely exuding from her at all times, her killer taste in music, the sheer talent that is her photography skills (both behind the camera & assisting in posing with such ease), to the way she somehow makes it feel like an old friend is with you every step of your wedding day (even if it’s the first day you met her), wrapping you in her beautiful scarf to keep you warm between photos & the ceremony because you were shivering, & is even willing to join your friends and family on the dance floor amidst capturing the most amazing memories for you. never did i feel rushed, if anything she helped me keep my cool about my timeline & helped ease so much of my anxiety about it. okay, i know what you’re thinking, “amy this seems like an excessive rant for a wedding photographer.” BUT YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND!! our photography was one part of our wedding we were willing to splurge on, & if i hadn’t decided we absolutely needed a second photographer for the day then i would have never been absolutely blessed with Rachael. not only did she capture so many of our posed moments, but more importantly the candid moments that i was too busy spinning around like a maniac to notice & are now some of my favorite pictures. our photographers are one part of our day that i will FOREVER absolutely rave about to everyone & always recommend to future brides because i want them to be able to experience the same beautiful souls & genuinely perfect encounter i got that day. Rachael is the kind of person you want to reach out to when you’re thinking about future photoshoots, & who makes you want to do photoshoots just for an excuse to get to experience both her presence & her absolute talent again. if you were debating hiring Rachael, PLEASE don’t second guess it. you will NOT be disappointed. (did i mention the photos she delivered are simply out of this freakin’ world?! because OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!)

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

We loved working with Kelly for our wedding in Redondo Beach. Kelly is dedicated to getting the shot - climbing up balconies to get the right angles and helping us pose correctly. We didn't know where to take photos and she suggested the best locations, they look incredible. She even helped to clean up a stain on my dress when something was spilled during our getting ready photos! Kelly is great to work with. She's quick to reply and her systems are modern and easy to use. It was simple to pay. Her website for photos is great and it was easy to review our photos and share them with family and friends. We also got a huge preview of photos just a few weeks after our Nov wedding, in time to order a holiday card on a Black Friday Sale and order some family gifts! Kelly is friendly, personable, and responsive. Her photos our beautiful. We'd recommend her to everyone and would pick her again and again if we got to do it all over.

I am a caffeine addict who never sleeps. I love a good thunderstorm and playing Candy Crush for the brain breaks. I adore all kinds of dogs, but I have a special love for German Shepherds. My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

I catered a wedding for which Silvia Gilbert was the wedding photographer. She communicated with everyone very clearly on timelines. She was very professional and efficient and made everyone feel at ease. I would gladly work with Silvia again.

This is the part where we tell you: ‘we are strictly documentary style photographers’. Or that we only edit a certain way. Or that we only shoot under certain conditions. But we don’t work that way. We believe that a good photographer isn’t just documentary, or editorial, or candid. We believe a good photographer is ALL of those things, and knows how to read a room, an environment, and a moment to know how best to capture it. And that’s what we try to do. Capture every moment, to the best of our ability.

You can’t go wrong booking with Kayti. She is so good at what she does, you will not be let down. If you’re needing engagement photos, wedding photos, graduation photos, whatever it is, she’s your girl. I say all this but her works speaks for itself!

My husband and I had a crazy experience with our wedding because of Covid but Serenity was so nice and easy to work with. We were able to take our mind off of at least one thing- the pictures. It was so amazing to get the best pictures we could ask for and all the while just being us and having fun. We danced, laughed, road in a carriage, and it was all so magical. I will always use SerenityStyles when it comes to photography and will always recommend her to friends! I’ve never had such a calm and comfortable experience like I did with Serenity.

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

Jessica did an amazing job with our wedding photos! She made sure that we planned all of the portraits we would want ahead of time so that the day flowed nicely. We have only seen our preview photos so far but are blown away with how beautiful they look! Would recommend for any wedding!

This experience kindled a deep passion for weddings, and it's one of the driving forces behind my profession. I'm wholeheartedly committed to ensuring that each of my couples has their precious moments meticulously captured, preserving memories that will endure for years to come. My purpose is to authentically narrate your unique love story, exactly as it unfolds.

My husband and I can't sing our praises enough for Cassandra! From beginning to end working with her was a dream. We instantly clicked with her when we had our consultation and we knew we had to have her apart of our day. When we had our engagement session that assured us that we chose the right photographer for our day. The images we received from our session were just beautiful and really captured our love for one another. Everything leading up to our wedding was wonderful and she was extremely helpful as we ran into some hiccups with other vendors and she was there to help us find someone just as amazing. The day of our wedding was better than we could have dreamed. Our vendor team was amazing, Cassandra took care of everything and some, she keep us on our timeline, made the day so enjoyable but also took charge so I wouldn't be stressed out. She is so talented and not only an amazing photographer, but a life long friend now. Thank you so much for giving us photos to cherish for the rest of our lives and giving us the most wonderful experience. We love you!

Photography is something I am passionate about because of the trials I have faced in my life. I am a self-made photographer + I love what I do with my whole heart and soul. When I was a senior in high school I lost two of my best friends. Now, any photo I have with those sweet friends are so sentimental to me. The bible verse James 4:14 says, “For you do not know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a Mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” So live your life with purpose, laughter, follow your passions, and strive to love like Jesus each day, because your life is simply a mist in this world.

Rachael is our all-time photographer and she blows me away every time we have a session with her! Our engagement and wedding photos were flawless and she was a dream to work with! She makes a bride and groom feel comfortable and captures every detail. I can’t recommend Mist Photography enough!
