the

SENIOR EXPERIENCE

Why Us

PHOTOGRAPHERS GALORE

No matter where you live, there's at least a handful or two of photographers who call themselves professional in every town. Cameras are so far advanced, and even phones take great images now - so for many people the quality difference is hard to see! With this being the case, how in the world are you supposed to choose?

WHY CHOOSE TENSIXTEEN?

We get it - it's hard to see differences in photos, so why should you choose us over someone else? We actually think the answers to this are easy! But the most important comes down to experience.

#HUMBLEBRAG

There are many different ways that when you think of TenSixteen you can think of experience. First - we've been photographing for 18 years. We've polished our skills throughout time and established a consistent, unique look that has set us apart from the rest of the crowd. We've been published in several online and print publications, spoken at several workshops and events across the Midwest, and were voted "Best Senior Photographer in St.Louis" in 2013 by fellow photographers.

Beyond our professional experience, the experience we think is most important is the one we give our seniors! We take a limited amount of senior sessions each year so that we can make each session completely unique and customized. We add in a lot of personal touches and go above and beyond what others can offer because of the time we are able to devout to getting to know each senior. We don't need a "senior rep" program to create a tribe of elite seniors we dole out extra perks to - we give that type of experience to every single senior we photograph!

OUR STYLE

Even though you may not see a huge difference in photographers, each tend to have a way they shoot and edit. Some use an abundance of Photoshop - fake skies or adding something into the photo digitally that wasn't actually there. Some process their images in a dark and moody style - trees and grass look grey, skin tones look more orange, black and whites are more muddy with less pop. Then there is a film look - although shot digitally, the photos are made to look airy or grainy like the effect of shooting on film.
Our style doesn't fit into any of these categories. Our photos are crisp, vibrant, with dynamic lighting. We pay special attention to flattering posing and lighting so that your photos look great straight out of the camera - our digital edits simply enhances vs alters! We stay away from fleeting trends (remember color touch?) that will date your photos, and instead focus on looks that are current yet are able to stand the test of time
