Selecting a photographer to capture the joy and beauty of your event is no easy feat. I saw many…read moregreat photographers online through IG. Thumbtack. Yelp and the internet. Most had prices that rivaled a house down payment. Being a member of Yelp Elite, I was immediately impressed by Emily's Five Star Yelp reviews. Every single one was (is) rated five stars. That speaks volumes because we Yelpers don't hand out five stars like Tic-Tacs. I reached out to Emily and we had an initial call to discuss my event, vision, location and most importantly, my expectations. Emily asked me questions I hadn't considered as a consumer. She brought ideas and explained her process. I immediately felt comfortable and knew she'd deliver with Excellence, Enthusiasm Effortlessly, all while surpassing our Expectations. When we received our photos, my husband said "those are the best photos I've ever seen". Thank you Emily!

You can tell that she is professional and knows what she is doing because I came to her having no idea what photos I wanted or a timeline for the day of. She helped so much in that area and was able to direct us day of and made a timeline that worked perfectly for us. The photos we received back are AMAZING, she could not have done a better job. Even though our wedding was during a busier season we still got the photos back pretty quickly I would say. She really helped make our wedding day perfect and I am so grateful for that.

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!

By the time we started shooting everything felt comfortable, natural, and surprisingly easy. And the pictures, they are incredible!! I truly didn't think I would like them as much as I do. Terra sees beauty in every body and it absolutely shines through in her images. She gives the gift of unapologetic confidence to her clients. I'm so glad I had the courage to go through with this! If you've been thinking about booking a session but are too nervous, please take the leap and do it!! It was a wonderful experience that I hope to repeat again and again.

SO upset on how my engagement photos turned out. For starters, he came in late to the venue, I had…read moreto call to ask where he was. When I first talked to him, he told me he was familiar with how my culture does our events and when I asked if he wanted me to give him a run down and go through things, he said no. But during the event he told my sister-in-law that he had no idea what was going on. We had to ask him numerous times during the event to come take pictures of what was going on. Because he came late, I didn't get to take pictures with just my fiancée and I, and he gave no direction. He seemed clueless. When I received the pictures I was shocked on how bad they were. They were so dark (he didn't bring any lighting with him) and when he sent the edited pictures they were so laughable, almost cartoonish. I honestly could've done a better job myself. They were not professional at all. We had to pay him upfront too. Sad that I don't have good pictures of that day. I do not recommend. EDIT IN RESPONSE: In no way did I "beg" for a lower price. I found him on thumbtack and saw his price was $250 and thought it was a good price. I never asked him to go lower. When I called him on the phone, the first time, he said he was coming back from another event. He was supposed to get there 5:00 but came closer to 5:30 and went to the bathroom when he arrived. My family was ready to take pictures. In the pictures I received there were only backs of most of the guests. When I asked my family they said he never went up to them to ask for pictures. Many went up to HIM to tell him to take pictures . The pictures were dark and far away. There was no flash. I had to ask for the raw pictures and I edited them much better than he did. His versions looked outlandish with the colors looking much different than in real life. The contract stated I would receive my pictures within a week but I had to continuously ask for my pictures, receiving petty excuses.
