Carly Ann Hilo Photography

Some friends and I very luckily stumbled upon Carly a few months ago, and were fortunate to have her shoot an event we had earlier this month. My bias is that we’ve become good friends in the last three months since we found her after this year’s abnormally hot St. Patrick’s parade in Dogtown, but truthfully, her portfolio should more than support my review.
Aside from quality of work, what’s cool to note is that Carly is equally comfortable shooting with film as mush as she is shooting digitally. For this particular event, we consulted with her and decided digital was the route we wanted to go. She was both great with directing us for flattering shots, as well as capturing some private moments for great candids, and was with us starting before the event through the end — documenting it all.
A lot of her background stems from her experience as a photographer in New Mexico and Hawaii. She’s got a fun blog that demonstrates her range of work — engagements, portraits, shows, parties…
Carly, thanks again for everything! Can’t wait to see what photo magic you’re able to capture in St. Louis
