Sue Lesch Photography

I started my business in 2011, but my interest in photography started long before that. When I was a teenager, my older brother gave me an old 35mm camera of his and from then on, I took pictures whenever I could afford to buy film. About 15 years ago, I made the switch to digital and really fell in love with the boost to creativity that photoshop and other software products have brought to the process.

I love high school senior photography! These photo shoots are so much fun. The combination of fashion, different locations and interests make every portrait unique. Unlike studio backgrounds, no two on-location photo shoots are alike. Whether you choose a well-known St. Louis landmark or park, your high school or your own backyard, your portraits will have a one-of-a-kind look and will express your distinctive style.

My specialty is portrait photography. I do, however, enjoy photographing a few smaller, more intimate weddings each year. I enjoy taking portraits that show the love and emotion the couple feel for each other. If you're planning a wedding on a smaller scale, I would love to talk to you about how together we can develop a photo plan that will tell your story.

In real estate sales, the best way to entice clients to visit a property is with great pictures. I use a combination of digital and lite HDR (High Dynamic Range) photos to give you the best showcase for your property. High Dynamic Range gives a depth and structure to the photo that you don't get with typical photography but it can be overused.

This is a 2 hour photo shoot at a St. Louis area location. After your session, I'll choose the best 30 files to apply complete photo enhancements. This includes both retouching (to skin, eyes and teeth) and artistic enhancements to give the photo a more polished look. In approximately two weeks, you'll receive access to a private gallery of your photos.
