I’ve been a blogger for two years now, but haven’t been able to take professional photos—until now. A few weeks ago, I scheduled my first professional photo session with Photography by Caren Libby here in St. Louis. Caren has been a friend of mine for awhile now, and I have always been impressed with her photography skills, so when it came time for me to shoot some “real” photos, it was Caren whom I entrusted with such a task.
I wanted to showcase my personality, which I consider to be fun, fabulous, and funky. After discussing my needs with Caren, we decided to do an on-location shoot at Creve Coeur Park, one of the largest parks and recreational areas in St. Louis County. With outdoor shoots, you never know—but we were both hoping for the best.
The results of said shoot are now completed and I must say, Caren exceeded my expectations. I was so nervous about how everything was going to turn out, but I didn’t have to be. Caren seemed to have captured everything that I wanted. The fun, spunky, DIVA frolicking in a great area. She managed to capture me in so many ways—in the middle of a street, in front of a lake, by a barn, and everywhere else that made for an interesting shot in Creve Coeur Park.
Below is just a small peek at the images Caren captured of me that day. I am so thankful to her, and I am so grateful that I finally have some professional photos to include in my media kit and portfolio.
If you are in the St. Louis area, I highly recommend Caren for all of your photography needs. She is highly talented, awesomely affordable, and is very easy to work with.

Caren did an amazing job. I love the last picture.
Thanks for commenting, Nick. I love how the pictures came out. Caren is an amazing photographer!
Love, love, love! If I had just 1/4 of your style I’d be doing pretty darn good! 😉
Michelle, I get it from my mama. LOL. She was/is always stylish so I learned from the best. Thank you for commenting. 🙂
This is fierce! Good job ladies.
Really like the breadth of the photos… funky style as well as a bit of relaxed fun. Will help be sure you have photos for different kinds of submissions. 🙂
Nice shots!
Looking good, pretty lady! I’m so proud of you!!!
This is absolutely one of the most fun photo shoots I’ve ever done. You are so authentic in your approach to everything Danyelle. It was a delight to catch this “fun, spunky, DIVA frolicking” in one of my favorite places.
Nice! I actually recognized the park as soon as I saw the firs shot.
Beautiful.
I saw you on one of the local T.V. shows. I would like to meet with you so that you can help me start a blog. I am a struggling photographer. I do good work, however, I’m struggling to bring everything together. Would you please help me!!! All I need is a good bust, and then I’ll be good to go.
Awesome photos! I am in desperate need for head shots, so I i will have to call Caren!
