Shannon K Dougherty - St. Louis Photographer and Owner

Hello! My name is Shannon and I’m a portrait/editorial/boudoir photographer, retoucher, stylist…well, the list goes on and on. I really just love to always be creating all I can for my clients with their sessions!

I’m originally from St. Louis, Missouri but moved around quite a bit growing up. I moved back to St. Louis years ago and so happy to be back!

I love creating a special moment for my client the moment they come in for their photo session. That time where they get to be a fashion model for the day. There is no feeling like being truly pampered with getting your makeup done and a fabulous photoshoot! I want everyone who steps in front of my camera to feel like a Star. You will truly see your portraits as art. You are worthy of having beautiful photos of yourself right now in this moment in your life. I want everyone to feel celebrated and empowered in the studio.

Before every session, I take the time to plan each session special for each client. Each client gets professional makeup done by one of our amazing artists, we consult about wardrobe , and I help guide with all the posing needs as we take your amazing portraits! After the session, there is a private reveal of your stunning images where you pick all your favorite portraits of yourself.


I can’t wait to create your dream photoshoot experience with you!
