You ever get the itch to take photos but don't know where to go? Grab a zoom lens, an extra battery, maybe some water & head to your local zoo. It's a great way to not only get to take photos of the animals, but to test out new things with photos. And no one will question you, lmao.

Now, I know what you're thinking sometimes zoos can be a little sad to see animals in exhibits. I agree. But, that's not the case with STL Zoo. They actually take care of their animals, and build spacious exhibits for all the rays of species. If you're a local fellow photographer or someone that is getting into it as hobby, I highly suggest checking it out!

That's my little photo tip that's been in the old meat computer lately, and hope you enjoyed if you read all the way to the end!

I had so much fun with taking these photographs of Kara + Lauren. After editing, I’m even more excited to do their wedding.🖤

I just want to thank everyone that has booked a session with me this year!! This year I got to not only photograph so many lovely souls, but also started dabbling in street photography.

In 2026, I plan on starting to sell some prints! If you’re interested let me know, and if you wanna add prints from your photo session it’s going to be a new add on!

I hope everyone has a safe & happy holidays! I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the new year. 🖤

Ravin + Kenny 🖤

Photographing both my long time friends during spooky season was a must. 🎃 Also the perfect way to celebrate their anniversary that just past a little while ago 🖤

The last few photos are duplicates, but that’s because I wanted to throw in some Halloween editing in with the mix. 😏🖤
