Sugar Free Photography

Belleville, IL · Metro East & St. Louis

Capturing the world in its purest form.

At Sugar Free Photography, we believe a shoot should be as fun as the final image is beautiful. We specialize in drawing out genuine smiles and capturing pure, candid moments, delivering striking portraits, dynamic event coverage, playful pet photos, fine art, and automotive photography without the artificial fluff.

Ultimately, whether you're looking for a traditional gallery, just want to do a fun shoot, or want to go all-out for a viral trend, you're in the right place.

About

Lawrence County raised, Belleville based

I grew up in Lawrence County and now shoot out of Belleville. I shoot portraits, families, pets, landscapes, and cars, and I bring the same patience with light to every session.

You get a relaxed session, direction when you want it, and an edited gallery you'll actually use.
