St Louis Based Photographer

Emma Parker

For me, photography is less about the perfect shot and more about creating a space where you feel at ease, seen, and celebrated. I’m here to capture the moments that matter most—the ones you want to remember forever, not because they’re perfect, but because they’re yours. From the quiet glances to the loud laughs, I aim to make you feel comfortable, so you can be fully present in the beauty of your day, with no pressure to "perform."

I’m inspired by the little things: the way light falls on a hand, the quiet joy in a shared look, the way we all weave together stories of love, hope, and growing. My greatest passion is simply being there with you, witnessing your love, and capturing images that feel like you—authentic, tender, and full of heart.

When you work with me, it’s not just about photos. It’s about creating an experience where you can breathe, be yourself, and trust that I’m there to cheer you on every step of the way. I want you to feel like you’re walking through your story, not posing for it.

I call St. Louis home, where I share my life with my wonderful partner, Adam, and our five pets. You can usually find me sipping way too many cups of tea at once, curled up in my sunroom with a good book, or dreaming up the next chapter of this beautiful journey.
