About Me

Capturing Memories

I live in the St. Louis area so having sessions at Forest Park, like the Muny and the Art Museum, is my bread and butter. My love of photography started in high school, and grew into a business in 2017. Coffee, chocolate, and my dog are some of the things I love.

I also love sharing my passion with others and getting to be a part of someone's milestone in life, even if only for a little bit. Your experience with me will be fun, relaxing and easy.

Trevor + Brooke

"I cannot recommend Emily more- she did a fantastic job during our entire time working together. She was helpful with the planning, punctual and communicated well on the day of the shoot, and most importantly took great pictures that turned out great. Anyone interested should definitely consider her for their photo shoot!"

FAQ

How long have you been a photographer?

I have been a photographer for over 9 years. My love of photography started in high school and grew into a business a few years after.

Do you deliver every image you shoot?

No, I do not. I eliminate duplicate photos, test shots, and any with unflattering angles or facial expressions.

What kind of photography do you do?

I do weddings, engagements, surprise proposals, family, senior and sometimes headshots. Contact me for more details!

What is your editing style?

I tend to go for the more moody look with bright colors, and natural poses. I want your genuine self to shine through.

What is the pricing and payment structure?

To start, I do require a non-refundable retainer of 20% of the total session price that is due with the contract. The remaining amount is due 1 to 2 weeks before your session, depending.
The starting session prices are listed on my investment page. After you receive your gallery of images, you can purchase packages and other products directly from your gallery online.

How long does it take to get photos delivered?

Post-production usually takes 2 to 3 weeks as I go through each image and give you the best ones.
