Bio
Carrie Cole
Beau is a true perfectionist coupled with superlative talent and an amazing knack for knowing and providing the best service for his clients - he is truly one of a kind. We have worked with Beau and his company for years and have been back many times - and we call them when we need a photographer that does stellar, ultra creative work - but do it with sophistication and with a level of intentional projected simplicity that sometimes is best for clients to see. Beau performs at an amazing level yet he does his best to sheild his clients from all the troubling details and minutia that I know they have to go through behind the scenes. In the end we get an AMAZING creative product - and he makes it LOOK easy. Thanks Beau!

I had the pleasure of working with Beau and the creative geniuses at Bruton Stroube studios for a Seagram’s Gin photo shoot. Not only did they nail the look, but they were super flexible when a last minute snag occurred and still managed to show my client and I a fabulous time in St. Louis. I highly recommend for fabulous spirits images.

Assisted with props, sets, casting, phones, and whatever needed doing to facilitate the successful execution of commercial photography shoots. In retrospect, I learned that this is a fast, always-changing business, rewarding and truly wonderful way to spend my time.
