Stacey was incredible. She was professional, friendly, and encouraging, with lots of ideas on poses and movements, that allowed us to relax and helped us get the best photos possible....Stacey captured us as a couple well, and the photos felt romantic, candid, cinematic, and truly representative of us.

Let's get acquainted! We'll start with a friendly chat, either in person or virtually. This is where we'll discuss your vision, preferences, and any questions you may have, to make sure that working together is a perfect fit!
Once you're all in, I'll send you over a contract and a retainer to hold your date on my calendar, and we'll start planning timelines and logistics!

cherish forever
Hi, friend! I'm Stacey. I'm a film & digital photographer based in St. Louis, Missouri and traveling internationally to capture authentic love stories with an editorial and documentary style in the US, Europe, and beyond. Based on my love of stories and literature, my desire to document a feeling, and my passion for film photography, I work with creative couples who want an alternative to traditional wedding photography, because
From cheesy Hallmark movies, to classic rom-coms, to Taylor Swift lyrics, to classic literary romances, I love love stories. Specializing in wedding and couples photography was an easy choice for me, because I could never be bored when I’m documenting real connection and candid moments.
I can't wait to get to know you!
Meet Your Photographer
the big and small moments of your story are what make it unique, and capturing them will capture you at your best.
Connection, not perfection.
I believe the best photos come when you feel completely yourself—relaxed, joyful, and connected to the moment. That’s why I focus on building a genuine connection with each couple. My favorite shots are ones that capture the candid, raw, true-to-life moments that you could blink and miss, but that make up a lifetime.
Low-maintenance,
high emotion.
I'am a storyteller at heart, inspired by my love of literature and cinema. I want my work to reflect my heart for what I do as well as all the real emotion and love I'm capturing in the lens. I fully believe taking photos should be fun and relaxed. "Stressful" is not the vibe we want when you think about your wedding or photoshoot! I'll always make sure you're comfortable and having a good time.
Quality over quantity.
I love to take a lot of pictures. But I also love to slow down and be intentional about them. In my book, having a those few incredible images with the wow factor that you come back to admire again and again will always be worth more than hundreds of photos that sit in a folder you never look at.
Built-in nostalgia.
I'm a sucker for the timeless look and feel of film photography; there's nothing quite like it! My style emulates this look so your photos will be gorgeous and timeless, never outdated. I also love to shoot on real 35mm film, just ask! ;)
Yay! I can't wait to get planning with you! Just shoot me an email if you haven't already, and I'll get all info on the next steps sent over to you :)
I'm ready to book!
What next?
I looooove to shoot film! It's the aesthetic I aim for in my digital work, but there's nothing quite like real film photos! I primarily shoot 35mm film. I can shoot film in addition to digital images for $75/roll, and many of my packages have film included. This includes fees for the roll itself and developing. I can't wait to create some truly one-of-a-kind pictures with you!
Do you shoot film?
I'm based in Missouri but will absolutely join you on your adventure anywhere in the world! Travel fees are included in my package pricing for elopement packages, and a flat travel fee applies for weddings >4 hours driving distance away from St. Louis, MO. Just inquire about your location if you want more details on that!
Do you travel?
The earlier the better! It will help you lock in your date, especially for the busy season from April-October. I usually recommend booking a minimum of 6 months in advance of your date, to allow for booking travel, lodging, and activity logistics. For non-wedding sessions, I require a minimum of 2 weeks advance in advance of your desired date in order to prepare and plan for your shoot. Get in touch with me via my contact form to start the process and get more info!
