ABOUT JUSTINE
Born and raised in the Midwest, I now reside in beautiful St. Louis, MO, with my husband, Zach, my toddler, James, and our two needy felines.
After Zach proposed in October 2015, I found myself enamored with the beautiful work of fine-art film photographers. "What is this visual wizardry?!" I thought to myself as I searched for my own wedding photographer. A few months after having our engagement photos taken, I made the plunge and purchased my first medium format film camera. Just shy of a year later… Justine Wright Photography was born!
I take a playful, yet personalized approach to my sessions - fun can (and should) be had! When it comes to my style, I prefer soft, natural light, neutral tones, and capturing candid moments of joy as they unfold. I believe firmly that the best way for me to tell your story is to know a bit about it, first, so I love to learn about my clients and their photography vision before we actually work together. I’m a details gal, so the more info you can give me - the better! While I believe that a good photograph should be aesthetically pleasing, I believe that a great photograph should evoke emotion... so when I clicks my shutter, I strive to create images that will give you #allthefeels (today and every day following).
AS SEEN ON
ON A PERSONAL NOTE
I married my husband, Zach, against the beautiful rolling hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Bluemont, VA, and vividly remember the excitement of being a bride. While my life has since shifted (hello, parenthood!), that insight remains highly valuable to me as I serve my wedding clients. I am a homebody, so when I’m not working, you can usually find me attempting to tidy my kitchen or taking a walk through my neighborhood. I believe time spent with family is time well spent, so I’m usually hanging with Zach and our rambunctious toddler, James! While I project high energy vibes during my sessions, I am an introvert and recharge through quiet alone time. I love a good Netflix binge, Starbucks cold brew, and the feel of clean bed sheets. I relate closely to the many mothers who want beautiful photographs with their family but worry about all of the extraneous variables, so if fear is holding you back from booking your session… leave it at the door. I’ve got you!
