Mist Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Oakdale, IL

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!

There aren’t enough words to describe this beautiful soul. I was Looking for a photographer for our big day and a friend recommended I talk with Alena about possibly doing our Wedding photos! I decided to have Alena come out to our property In the fall of 2020 for a family photo session as well as sneak a few engagement photos in. Oh my did we hit it off with her right away! She has the most beautiful soul and she’s so outgoing and her laughter is contagious. Anyways, beyond all these amazing qualities her talent is beyond perfection. Our family session was incredible and I’ve never loved a session more. We booked her for our big wedding day as well as she did a Boudoir session with me to surprise my soon to be hubby. Her photos are elegant, moody, fun, breath taking and so much more. The comfort she brings during your session is something I’ve never had. She’s able to pose you just right, boost your confidence when you’re feeling low, and she talks you through her ideas and she’s a perfectionist when it comes to her editing. We are beyond thrilled and we plan to continue having her for many future celebrations. Alena has become like family to us and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

I believe your wedding day should look exactly how YOU want it. It should be as unique and fun as you are. If that means celebrating miles into the beautiful Ozark Mountains, floating by kayak or canoe on the most scenic riverways of Missouri or from the belly of the Earth in the most beautiful cave America has to offer, I would love to help you create the BEST Adventure of your lives. 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. I'll be your Hype Girl, Map Reader, Chaos Coordinator, Photographer and Friend.

On July 4th 2023 we married at Bridal Cave with Lindsey Webster Photography capturing every moment, we can't thank you enough Lindsey Webster for capturing the greatest day of our lives. Our pictures turned out beautifully and it's such a blessing to look back and see the joy and happiness we both had on that day. We plan on returning this July 4th to celebrate our 1st year anniversary, that day never would of been as special as it was if Lindsey Webster Photography didn't capture the moments we fell in love with. Thank you for the great job you did Lindsey Webster

Hello, future clients! I am honored that you are viewing my passion and interested in who I am! I always aim to photograph people in the most beautiful spots around NWA! I have loved all forms of art and had a passion for it, since I was a child! I bought my first camera (small red Kodak) when I was 11, and I have been photographing anything and everything ever since! I have since upgraded my camera equipment, if you can't tell, and I would love the chance to photograph you and everyone you know and love! I can't wait to be a part of and capture your most special moments!

My husband and I eloped in the woods, and Danielle was wonderful through it all. She was professional, patient with our old selves, and an absolute joy. We would no doubt hire her again.

Hi, I’m Laura! I am a photographer based in Columbus, Ohio, serving the midwest & beyond. I’m here to document and capture life’s most happy & romantic moments. I long to provide more than just a typical vendor experience: At most shoots, I become an additional bridesmaid, a professional 3rd wheel, or the newest friend of the family. From the moment you book till you receive your gallery, I am here to guide you every step of the way and ensure things go as smoothly as possible.

Shooting with Laura was such a blast. Not only did she make it easy, she made it so much fun! We shot in Hocking Hills, which can be pretty tricky terrain to walk through while all dressed up! She made sure we were comfortable the entire time, helped me climb up and down stairs, & was so eager to help in any way that she could. To top it all off, HER PHOTOS WERE BREATHTAKING. I cried when I first saw them. They are photos of memories that I will treasure forever, & I owe it all to Laura! I can’t recommend her enough!
