Our local independent businesses provide much more than just good prices:

Better Service
Local owners and employees really know their businesses and their customers — and can offer you more personalized service and relevant advice.

Superior Quality
Many locally owned independents provide higher-quality products and services to you than the average national chain business.

Unique Choices
Independent local businesses bring their own creativity to their businesses — offering selections you won’t find elsewhere.

 

 

Our City and County local independents are just a click away.

Our members are local independents who’ve taken a stand to help spread the word about locals, by joining the BUILD St. Louis business alliance. Please patronize their businesses – and refer friends and family to them, as well.

314 922 6515 | Webster Groves, sessions by appointment (63119)
St. Louis children's photographer Lauri Baker specializes in lifestyle photography of pregnancy, newborns, and kids. Award-winning and nationally published, she also does commercial work and editorial assignments. Acclaimed for her use of natural light, and her innate sense of decisive moments, her portraits become fine art for your home. In a world full of digital effects, Lauri's work has a decidedly organic feel to it, communicating the emotion of real moments and the depth of family relationships. She takes a unique artisan approach to exposure and processing, winning her praises for the richness and depth of her black and whites, and her unique use of color. It's the result of producing each image by hand, rather than batch processing. Her portfolio is viewable on her website, above.
