With Mickey Mouse ears and grandparents to hug, how can one not smile at such joy!

We had the opportunity to photography a country themed engagement session in Texas. It was one of our most memorable shoots. We shot at a hand-made log home, on an antique tractor, by the pond, and even in the cow pasture! Congratulations to this country couple and all the best in your future together!







We love shooting in St. Louis’ Forest Park! This newly engaged couple had spunk, and charisma despite threatening rain. They were open to our fun photo ideas and a joy to work with. We look forward to the wedding in October.







Earlier this spring we spent some time at the playground with this dear little one! We just loved capturing her true joy and expressions of laughter as she explored one of her favorite places. Hopefully, you too can experience her excitement and innocence through our photographs. We look forward to working with her again soon!






Defy had the recent opportunity to photograph a professional dancer. Erin used to dance with SYREN Modern Dance in New York, but she has moved to the St. Louis area and needed new headshots. It was not only a joy to shoot her, but to be in the presence of such gentle grace.




Now that spring weather is here, we are looking forward to outside shoots, like this one! This family is moving due to the dad’s job. His wife wanted to make sure he had updated family photos to put in their new place. It was a fantastic shoot with a beautiful, energetic little girl. Even Grandma made it in a few shots! We look forward to more shoots like this!
