I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DON FROM LUX MEDIA FOR YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY / VIDEOGRAPHY!!!…read more I hired don for my maternity shoot, and am more than happy with the results. Not only was he on time for the shoot but he was very patient, and knows how to capture the PERFECT angle / shot! He is so worth it! He's very responsive with texts/calls and very kind! He pays very close attention to details, and literally makes the photos look SO magical yet NATURAL. Don is truly skillful and talented at what he does. Highly recommend giving him a shot if you're looking for a photographer / videographer.

I was referred to Don from my sister who found him through one of her very close friend that…read morerecently got married. Don is amazing at what he does and he truly works with you in achieving what you want for your photos. He did our engagement photos recently and it went really smooth. He made it fun and we felt comfortable taking pictures with him because he made everything go with the flow and it felt very natural! We took pictures at Balboa park and he took us around to different spots so that he could maximize the area and beauty of Balboa Park. It was nice that he wanted us to have a big selection of photos with different background and styles. When we were taking pictures Don made us feel very relaxed. I loved that he made us feel at home and it was enjoyable! He taught us different poses and made it simple as possible. It was such a fun day! Don even makes bouquets for you as a prop during photo taking!! And they ARE BEAUTIFUL!! He seriously could be a florist too! LOL The week before our engagement photos he even called me to talk about attire and it was really nice of him to talk about what would be best to wear and he really wanted us to look perfect on that day and suggested many different outfits and even asked if he could see what we got planned to see if it would go well with the theme etc. it was really considerate of him to take the time to reach out to us and care about our wardrobe and how the pictures will look with certain attire. Don sent us a lot of engagement photos and they all turned out beautifully!! I was very impressed and I am excited to work with him on videography and photography for our wedding day. Don is a very dedicated photographer and videographer. I can already see that it is his passion. He is very busy and books up fast so be considerate of his responses! He truly does try to get back to me asap and I haven't had any problems with communication the last couple months working with him. He is always awesome on calling me and touching base with me and reviewing whatever needs to be reviewed. Thank you Don!

Stephanie took our maternity and newborn photos and we just love the pictures! She was so…read moreprofessional, friendly, and easy to work with! She has a great set up for the baby pictures with lots of options for props and accessories. She was so gentle and patient with the baby and got so many great shots. She was also great with my 2.5 year old son and able to get some great family pictures too. Stephanie was always very prompt in replying to messages and she took the time to discuss the sessions ahead of time to make sure we were on the same page with what kind of feel we wanted for the photos. Final edited images were available quickly. I couldn't have been happier with our experience and we will definitely be using Stephanie again.

Stephanie is a fantastic photographer! We have had our maternity, newborn, 4 month, and 8 month…read morepictures done with her and every experience was great. The photos are all amazing and she is so patient with our daughter. She also has a ton of clothing, wraps, and accessories so you don't have to buy an expensive Etsy outfit for a one time shoot. I can't say enough good things about her and I recommend her to all of my friends!

Most recently, Christina captured senior photos of our daughter, before her graduation. Christina was most helpful, and also accommodating with respect to her time, making herself available around poor weather, to be available when sunsets surprised us. And arriving on-location, in Castlewood State Park and other venues. Christina worked with our daughter to discuss the images she sought, to work on positioning and poses, and backgrounds. Christina captured a plethora of photos and shared them with us via DropBox, and she also makes prints that you request. Our daughter is very happy and thankful for the great photos Christina captured. A couple years back, Christina captured some wonderful couples' photos of my wonderful wide and me - great photos we love and display proudly. This reminds me that we should get together and capture some new photos, soon! Christina can provide you with many wonderful photos, of individuals, and couples. Thanks, Christina / Klings & Things!!! - - - - - - - -

Michael not only captured the look that my son wanted, but my sons personality. They turned out great and were an amazing value. Loved the pictures so much that we are having Michael shoot our family photos this month as well.

I hired Joel Marion to do our wedding photography. After seeing how many photographers there are…read moreout there, it can be an overwhelming process, but to be honest, Joel had two big things going for him. (1) He did my sister's wedding and her pictures were absolutely beautiful (he was a known quantity) and (2) As I already stated, his pictures were absolutely beautiful. Don't get me wrong, I did my due dilligence and made sure I checked other photographers, but in the end, I knew I wanted to go with Joel, no question. When you are going into your wedding day, the last thing you want to be worried about it whether you have a photographer you trust to get all your pictures, or get pictures you like, or a photographer that doesn't show up in flip flops and cut offs (seriously, I've seen it happen) I was so comfortable with Joel from the start. Our package included engagement pictures. So on a frosty day in January, we headed to the City Museum. We got some seriously awesome pictures that day, and couldn't wait to order them. They were the first pictures we hung on our wall in our new house and we get tons of compliments. Now my wedding pictures. Oh my, they are gorgeous. My main problem is narrowing down to my favorites because there are so many that I just love! He took pictures of everything: programs, flowers, people, the church, the ceremony, great pictures in Tower Grove Park, gorgeous reception pictures. I seriously cannot compliment him enough. I LOVE my wedding pictures. His wife runs the business side as well, and she is an absolute joy to work with. If you are looking for an excellent wedding photographer, I cannot recommend Joel enough. He isn't just some fly by night guy with a digital camera, he's been doing this since everything was on film and every shot counted. Trust me, it does make a difference. I am so happy with my photographer choice.

As soon as I saw the Groupon for this deal I was intrigued. After researching his website I…read morerealized what an amazing deal the Groupon offer was. We chose the Jewel Box in Forest Park on a beautiful Fall day in October to shoot our family portrait. Joel was great with the kids and my 18 month old boy barely stays in one place but I knew Joel captured some great shots. We did multiple family shots, the kids together, individual, mom and daughter, dad and son. My 4 year old daughter felt like she was a model... Joel just kept shooting and she loved every minute of it. When we got our high resolution DVD a week later I could not be happier. Apparently he sold over 1000 Groupons and he personally does each one. If there is another similar special I am on top of it for next year. Thanks Joel!

If you are interested in classically edited, minimally posed, beautiful photos, Emily is your person. She was wonderful with our newborn and made everything so easy and enjoyable. We are not necessarily comfortable in front of the camera and I was shocked at how relaxed we look in the photos. I am so grateful the stars aligned and Emily had availability for us. I can't wait to work with her again over the years to come.

If you need a photographer in St. Louis, look no further…read more I've hired Jenn for both my professional headshots and a family session in the park and she was fantastic for both! I HATE having my photo taken, but she actually made the process fun and worked with me to produce really flattering headshots. I've gotten multiple compliments from friends and colleagues on my new headshots, and I would recommend her to any professional without hesitation. For our family photos, I was blown away by how patient she was with my 3 year old son, who was not in the mood to have photos taken the day of our shoot. She cheered him up in impressively short order, and ultimately she took gorgeous photos that captured our family's personality perfectly. And when I thought it couldn't get any better, she turned around the proofs and edits for both sessions very quickly! She was professional and communicative throughout, and I can't overstate just how much I've enjoyed working with her.

With a simple google search, we found Jenn's website and quickly received a response. Working with Jenn was a breeze from start to finish. She was extremely professional, accommodating, and listened to everything we needed/wanted while even suggesting ideas we didn't think of! She was easy-going and by far a pleasure to work with. She provided amazing equipment that was simple to setup, and the end products were amazing. Her personality even helped drive people to our booth! Jenn is extremely passionate about her work and it definitely shows in her work ethic. We loved working with Jenn and would gladly work with her again!
