DOCUMENTING LOVELY
PEOPLE and LIVELY EVENTS

WHO SAYS YOU HAVE TO PICK A LANE?

From brands to birthday parties, events to everyone in the family... CAPTURE IT ALL with sharp style, bold energy, and ZERO CREATIVE LIMITS

I’ve never followed the one-niche rule and that’s my superpower.

For over 20 years, my business has evolved into documenting a variety of subject matter. Growing families, business professionals, branding, corporate events, headshots, high school seniors, maternity sessions, weddings, mitzvahs, private parties: I am passionate about documenting it all! I thrive on the energy people bring to each session, as I bring the same level of creativity, technical skill, and enthusiasm to every shoot—whether it’s for a brand launch or a baby’s first week home.
Your idea, your vision, and your story fuels my passion.

Get to Know the Photographer Who DOES IT ALL

Hi, I’m JJ! 20 years ago, I graduated from Webster University with my photography degree and started Be Lovely Photography. Since then, I’ve been photographing lovely people and lively events all over St. Louis, MO, and beyond!

Life is busy and we know these little moments fly by so fast. As a mom of 3, I have an understanding on how quickly our families change. Documenting the events in our lives is precious and fleeting, so I understand the honor of being the one chosen to capture these moments for families.

From weddings to babies, milestones to mitzvahs, non-profits to small businesses, I’m here to capture the moments worthy of documenting. Wanna be lovely? You already are! Let’s chat about your photographic needs, visions, and goals.
