The Big Surprise | Big Daddy's in Soulard

Meghan, with the help of friends and family, recently threw a surprise party in St. Louis for her husband and new pharmacy school graduate, Mike. This is how it all went down at Big Daddy's in Soulard!

Our last three posts have been of black-and-white images – time to put an end to that streak with this morning burst of springtime color... Another Faust Park favorite.

Light & Shadow | Victoria's Senior Photos

Okay, so we hesitate to rave about our own work, but it's hard not to right now – we just love everything about this photo – the door, the house, the steps, the shadows, the highlights. And, above all, the girl. Classic beauty.

photo of the day: seralyn | faust park

It's been too long since we last posted, so what better way to get back into the swing of things than with this gorgeous high school senior from O'Fallon?

hand-off & hold tight | baby cam

As we prepared for this sweet sleeping baby photo, Eric and Ola got their little newborn all nice and tired, warm and relaxed. Two quick frames, and Cam's arms and legs popped right up. Going through the images after the shoot was done, his tiny little feet poking up ended up better than the photo with them gently tucked into Mom's hands.

You just never know. Ready, Fire, Aim...

shakespeare for kids | the tempest

Every year for the past four, we've helped document the impressive, and often hilarious, Shakespearean theatre productions by the Blazing Star Players -- a growing group of budding actors from the O'Fallon/Lake St. Louis, Mo. area. On this year's playbill, The Tempest. 

This year's makeup, costumes and staging blew away all of their past productions. For that matter, it far surpassed a great number of amateur productions we've ever seen. These kids and their director and coaches are seriously talented!
