Welcome I'm Stevie and I am a wedding and portrait photographer in St. Louis, MO. I love people in love, a dry sense of humor and a good Cabernet. I don't eat meat but will never turn down dark chocolate.  I love detail shots, a first dance and fancy cakes. And shoes. Always the shoes.

I talk too much. Read on. Comment profusely. :)

So I'm finally getting around to blogging and I have soo much to tell you all! This past wednesday night, I was at the famed St. Louis Photographers Shot Party with featured speaker Jasmine Star! I KNOW, right!? I was TERRIBLY late but made it just in time to meet some awesome new people and hear Jasmine speak at the end of the night. What an inspiration to anyone starting a new business, not just photographers. She's really made an impact in this industry and we were so lucky to have her come chat with us!

Here's a picture I snagged from Kelly's facebook page of Me, Kelly Park, Jasmine, and the hostess with the mostess - Kelly Manno. So stinkin' cute.

Oksonow the REAL reason for this! Monica and Bill!! Woo! I'm terribly late blogging these but if you like me on Facebook, you'll notice that the album has been up for a while now. I don't have a good excuse and I honestly thought I had blogged them until I went looking for it and couldn't find it.... blonde moment. Monica and Bill came out in some dreadful heat to do their shoot in Lafayette Square Park, one of my favs. I just love the diversity in the settings there! Its never too crowded and its kept up pretty nice. We had GORGEOUS light and these two were fun and fabulous to work with. They're so at ease with eachother that it made my job so easy and I know their wedding day is going to be pretty spectacular as well. And far more temperate. :)

I wish I would have found this earlier! I've been looking for a Boudoir Photographer for awhile now and I think this sounds so much better than others I have found in the past! Would you please keep me updated for when you do this again? Thanks!

July is my favorite! Mostly because its my birthday month but it also means that half the year is over. Which would be a depressing thought, normally, but I like to think of it as a good reflection point. What have I accomplished this year so far? What do I have left to accomplish? Are there new goals to set and achieve by the end of the year? By this time, wedding season is well underway and I'm pouring over gorgeous dresses and shoes and flowers and venues on a weekly basis and being blown away by the creativity and uniqueness of my clients and the people I meet and shoot.

With that in mind, I have a couple engagements on the way to show you and first up is Christy and Steve! This darling Kentucky import was bringing the gorgeous in 102 degrees and she's my hero for it. I was a hot mess (quite literally) by the end and both of these guys were awesome to shoot and up for anything no matter the proximity or mercury count. Here's hoping your wedding this fall is a smidge more temperate. :)

I'm not sure if I had more fun AT this wedding or EDITING this wedding. Seriously, what a fun group! And the chemistry between Layne and Terry was simply magic. Its one of those weddings where you have a hard time moving from image to image because they're just so darn great together, you want to spend oodles of time on every one. Laynie was a beautiful bride and Terry just lit up when she was around. So happy their wedding day was finally here.



Thank you thank you to Kelly Park for shooting with me! Your talent blows me away!
And thanks to Rachel with Luck You Productions for making the day run smoothly. :)

Enjoy the slideshow!

Its so appropriate that Sex and the City 2 comes out this week because this wedding has some of the most style I've seen in a long time. Miranda had 3 dresses, 2 cakes and 1 ultra-fabulous pair of Manolo Blahnik shoes that Carrie would be proud of. A girl after my own shoe-loving heart!

The wedding and reception were held at Ces and Judy's in Frontenac and had beautiful event lighting courtesy of Exclusive Events. The flowers all came from Petals Galore and were there ever! All the details of this day came together perfectly for Miranda and Jonny and having their family and friends there to celebrate made it all the more special.

Miranda gets gorgeous from Lisa.

Dress #1 - We did a short pre-ceremony shoot with this short number to show off the shoes and get a little time with the bride and groom before the craziness started.

Sharon's angle as we began. Love it!
