My name is Halee Shearhart and I was born and raised in a little place I like to call the Lou (St. Louis if you didn’t know). I am all about that Imo’s Pizza, those T-Ravs and Syberg’s Wings. I like to eat, if you hadn’t guessed. I’m currently residing at the other end of the state in Kansas City, but my heart will always lie with the Arch. Along with my love for St. Louis foods, I have a deep relationship with coffee.

The first time I met Bailey was at my engagement shoot on my farm. I’ve had plenty of sessions with family and individual photographers, so I am comfortable in front of the camera, but my future husband is not at all. Bailey gave great instruction and made us both feel relaxed during our session. Can’t wait for the wedding next year!

From the first meeting to engagement photos, rehearsal and wedding day, all the way to final edits Elizabeth was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. She communicates clearly and promptly and has great insight when we asked her about anything. Kyle was a great videographer and support to Elizabeth and Lindsay was amazing as the second shooter making sure two brides were fully covered. Our photos are absolutely stunning and we will cherish our wedding video forever. Our full gallery was delivered two weeks early and our preview was up before we woke up the day after our wedding! They were able to work within our budget and are by far one of my favorite vendors we used. We will absolutely use them in the future for any photography needs and I will recommend them to everyone.

Joy Photo and Video was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography and videography needs. They always answered my questions as fast as they could, which put me at ease during the planning process. I loved that I can have access to all the pictures they took, not just the edited ones. The video they put together is amazing - they were able to make it so special in just a few short minutes. The photographer and videographer told us exactly what to do and how to pose, which was so helpful since we didn't know what kind of poses we wanted. The only thing I knew I wanted was some under the veil pictures, and they made sure to get those first. I also loved knowing that if my photographer or videographer were sick that day or something happened, there would be a back-up person there to ensure our day was captured perfectly. Overall, Joy Photo and Video exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

I love capturing people in their very human moments. Images that really resonate with me are those which capture the essence of a person, a relationship, or just raw emotion. I search to photograph moments in which people reveal who they really are. This drive affects everything I do. Weddings are a breeding ground for these types of moments and emotions. Honest love, friendship, and joy. This is why I have chosen to specialize in this type of photography, because it speaks to me in a way than nothing else does.
