We love Linda!
Linda is a wonderful photographer! She really goes all out to help you and your loved ones have the best day possible, while not being "in the way" at all on the big day. She is punctual and gets the job done.Linda is a wonderful photographer!

Amazing Photographer!!!
Linda was amazing, flexible, and still respectful of our day. She got great shots, dealt so well with everyone wanting their own pictures, had great ideas for how to pose/etc., and I got so many compliments from my guests at how personable and helpful she was. Highly recommend!Linda was amazing, flexible, and still respectful of our day.

Summer wedding!
We loved having Linda and Shawn shoot our wedding! They were amazing to work with and made our day perfect! They captured each moment so perfectly. From family to friends, each shot turned out great. They were great with our kids and made them feel comfortable and got amazing smiles out of them. I couldn’t recommend them enough. We now look forward to all our family shoots with Linda!

10000% would recommend!!!
We had worked with Linda at a previous wedding where both of us were in the wedding party. We knew on that day that we wanted to hire Linda for our own wedding. She is absolutely amazing and prompt with communication. We did our engagement photos with her as well and she got those back to us quickly. Her assistant Shawn is amazing as well. On the day she will wear as many hats as she needs to. She is not afraid to step in when she needs to, will help without prompting (my bustle was complicated!!) and basically doubles as a wedding coordinator. She gives you a specific timeline and is flexible depending on what your needs are. When given a photo list she somehow is able to wrangle everyone and make sure all of them are taken in a timely manner. On the day she took us to a couple of parks that a lot of people go to for photos, but she adjusts based on elements such as weather, and if she sees a spot that she thinks would be amazing. It was a very hot day and she made sure we stayed in the shade as much as we could. She found a cool spot at the second park and immediately got us to take photos there. She was amazing the whole day, answered questions, and helped out with other things when needed. She was amazing and I highly recommend her for whatever event you have planned!We had worked with Linda at a previous wedding where both of us were in the wedding party.

Shannon Younkin (Bride)
Linda and Shawn were so great to work with. This is the third wedding Linda has photographed for my family and her work NEVER disappoints!! Linda has great communication and is easy to get ahold of by either email or phone. She tells you exactly what to do for photos and makes the day easy and so memorable. I was able to give Linda a list of specific family photos I wanted and she was able to get all of them in a quick matter of time (since I had a lot) Linda’s work is beautiful and I highly recommend her!!! Thank you Linda for capturing all the special moments of Braden and I’s day!!Linda and Shawn were so great to work with.

The BEST! Beautiful, quality photos at a great value and personalized to you. HIGHLY recommend!
We were so lucky to be referred to Linda. We meshed so well with her personality-wise and felt so comfortable with her during the shoots. She adjusts her process and approach to meet your needs and is wonderfully talented! She was extremely responsive and helped us organize our wedding day, which changed a lot throughout the course of the months leading up to our day, due to COVID. She was also very supportive and flexible with us during the ups and downs of the pandemic. Our photos turned out far beyond our expectations. She was able to capture emotions and feelings from a couple who doesn't take a lot of photos. We loved the final product and the experience as a whole and would absolutely recommend her and retain her again in the future! Thank you, Linda!!We were so lucky to be referred to Linda.

An amazing photography experience!
We loved Linda Rivard photography! My husband and I were married during Covid and they were so flexible and able to accommodate exactly what we needed for our big day(s). Linda and Shawn were so fun a sweet and had great ideas for unique photos as well as traditional ones. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants beautiful photos!We loved Linda Rivard photography!

10/5 Stars!!!
I cannot speak highly enough about Linda Rivard and her assistant. Linda did our engagement shoot and we quickly got to know about her and her sweet dog. She is very personable and professional! She eased us into the whole process and we were able to become very comfortable with her which helped get some really unique shots. Her and her assistant Sean on the day of the wedding stepped up to every occasion. Sean was fixing my bracelet before I even met him that day! They had a really funny competition going on to see who could get the best shots for every pose. Very fun and light hearted! On my wedding day, it poured all the way until we got to the reception. We had to scratch pretty all of our plan A photo-op stops. Linda assured me we would get great pictures at Ameristar Casino which is covered and she was right! The photos her and Sean were able to capture on a last minute photo spree were awe inspiring. She matched the photography style I liked to a T and it made the whole day enjoyable. Also, let me assure you that she will take charge of every situation and make things super smooth for the whole day. I cannot thank her enough for making my entire day spectacular!I cannot speak highly enough about Linda Rivard and her assistant.

Linda made our day absolutely perfect!
From our very first meeting with Linda we were completely sold. She was professional, yet we felt super comfortable with her and told her point blank what we wanted- to have fun, be organized (we have a massive family and wedding guest list), and get beautiful pictures! She did exactly that. She wrote out a day of timeline right then and there for us at our first meeting. With that we were able to plan our day much more effectively! At our engagement session she coached us and made us laugh and took amazing pictures we didn't even know we were capable of taking! On our wedding day her and Shawn took beautiful photos, but also did so much more. They let us be crazy and fun and feel comfortable, they were bossy when they needed to be but always with a smile and we knew they truly wanted the best for us and our families and wedding party. Shawn also made sure Eli (the groom) never had an empty drink. We felt we were severely underpaying them, they did fantastic work and spent our whole day with us, keeping everyone on schedule and looking good. When they told us it was time for them to go we were begging them to stay just to enjoy the party! Of course being the professionals they are they politely declined. If we could give them 10 stars out of 5 we would. We cannot brag enough about Linda and Shawn!From our very first meeting with Linda we were completely sold.

So much more than a photographer
My fiancé and I met with Linda after getting engaged and immediately felt comfortable with her. We loved our engagement photo session with her (she knew our dog was our baby and got some incredible photos of our little spaz posing like an angel) and looked forward to the magic she would work for our big day. Unfortunately, covid came along and we had to postpone our wedding multiple times. Linda stuck with us every step of the way and communicated with us quickly and openly to help us secure a new date. Out of all of our vendors, we knew we couldn’t lose Linda, so we ended up picking our final wedding date based on her availability.
Our wedding day finally came and Linda and Shawn were incredible. Not only were the pictures everything we could have dreamed of, but they helped with so much more than that - pinning boutonnieres that our flower delivery girl didn’t help with, pulling bobby pins out of thin air after my dad accidentally ripped my veil out of my hair (seriously, I had no idea Linda would have an emergency supply kit on her), wrangling drunken groomsmen for pictures, etc. She was not just a photographer, she was a full on wedding coordinator. On top of all of that, Linda got us a preview of a few pictures before leaving for our honeymoon the next week and had our entire collection done quickly.
*Bonus points: as a plus woman, I don’t always love every picture of myself, especially candids. Without really communicating that to Linda, she managed to get the perfect angles that minimized my least favorite parts of myself so that I could fall in love with every single photo from our big day! I cannot wait for her to photograph our family in the future.My fiancé and I met with Linda after getting engaged and immediately felt comfortable with her.

Captured every moment!
Linda Rivard and teammate, Sean went above and beyond to make sure that she took every photo that my daughter wanted. She kept our huge family organized and together while photographing FABULOUS SHOTS. She sent a fewsneak peek photos for us and we are SUPER EXCITED. She has the experience, knowledge, breath and scope of photography and kept a large bridal party ON TRACK! (Trust me, I've had others who could NOT do that!) She was calm, cool and made sure that this vital part of my daughters wedding was captured. We felt confident upon meeting Linda and now, extremely confident in our recommendation to you!Linda Rivard and teammate, Sean went above and beyond to make sure that she took every photo that my daughter wanted.

Amazing Experience
If you are looking for a photographer to ease all your worries, keep your big day on track, all while capturing the most perfect photos, you absolutely need to consider having Linda photograph your wedding! Linda captured both our engagement photos, as well as our wedding photos and I honestly am in love with all of them! With that being said, I can be very picky when it comes to photos, but the whole experience was very natural and it definitely showed in our photos! I highly recommend Linda to anyone, as I know they will love their photos and experience as much as we did!If you are looking for a photographer to ease all your worries, keep your big day on track, all while capturing the most perfect photos, you absolutely need to consider having Linda photograph your wedding!

I cannot say enough good things about Linda. My Fiance and I were
looking for a photographer when I called Linda and after just a 15 min
conversation on the phone I knew she was going to be our photographer.
Linda met with us prior to the big day to do some engagement photos
(which came out amazing) and it really helped me feel comfortable since
I normally hate myself in photographs and I saw the magic she worked.
The day of the wedding Linda went above and beyond. She helped with last
minute planning and even moved the bridal party along when I was having
a hard time managing a large group. She is very considerate and made our
pictures so special, beautiful, unique and very personal.
I love the photos we have from the wedding, and coming from a bride who
hates 9/10 photos she takes that is saying alot!I cannot say enough good things about Linda. My Fiance and I were

Linda and her assistant, Shawn (a.k.a. MacGyver), did beyond an incredible job photographing our wedding yesterday. From our very first meeting to the final goodbye at the end of the night, we couldn't have asked for better professionals to capture our day. Linda is commanding in the BEST way and makes sure everything runs smoothly and on time, but is up for a change of plans at the drop of a hat. She's a planner, but knows things can change at a moment's notice, which is so important when it comes to weddings. Shawn was prepared with Shout Wipes when one of the bridesmaids got her dress dirty, scissors when some of the tulle on my dress tore, and Bobby pins when hair was misbehaving. With respect to the photos themselves, they showed us many shots (on their camera screens) after they were taken and they were positively stunning and more than we could have dreamed of!
If you're considering other photographers, stop; no one could ever compare to this duo!Linda and her assistant, Shawn (a.k.a.

With respect to the photos themselves, they showed us many shots (on their camera screens) after they were taken and they were positively stunning and more than we could have dreamed of!
If you're considering other photographers, stop; no one could ever compare to this duo! -

Linda is genuinely amazing!! We were so grateful to have her as our wedding photographer, and only have positive things to say about her. From the engagement photos to the day of, she is very easy-going, and simultaneously kept our huge family on track (and managed to get all the kiddos to smile!). We felt like she was part of our crew, and as a couple that feels a little uncomfortable around the camera, she and her assistant took away any unease. Our family and friends have given us numerous unsolicited compliments about Linda, and if we could do it all over again, we would choose her in a heartbeat.

I first met Linda at my sister's wedding two years ago. She was great! She always is so quick to take control of the situation
to ensure that you'll get all of the photos you are hoping for and to stay on your time schedule. So it was a no-brainer for us when it came to selecting our photographer. Having a winter wedding, we were up against the daylight and Linda did a remarkable job creating a plan of attack for us and suggesting seasonal spots for the photos. We are beyond happy with everything she did. She's even thoughtful with non-photo related suggestions. We just love her!I first met Linda at my sister's wedding two years ago. She was great!

I can't say enough about how much we love Linda!! From our engagement photos to the wedding day, she was so great with us. She rolled with the punches, made sure all of my many requests were met, and made our day run so smoothly. We were so impressed with how she handled the family photos after the ceremony, organizing everyone and keeping things running quickly. She kept us on schedule all day, but still made it feel relaxed and let us have time to enjoy the day. We cannot WAIT to see our photos, but if they are anything like our engagement photos we know we will be blown away. We had our dogs join us for our photos and she did SO well with them, getting them to focus and be calm for the camera and capturing some truly adorable memories. We wish we could have Linda follow us around with her camera every day! Thank you SO much!!I can't say enough about how much we love Linda!!

Hiring Linda Rivard as our photographer was probably one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding! We wre married in August of 2017. She was extremely kind, helpful, professional. She did our engagement shoot and we were so comfortable with her! We loved how our pictures turned out! She even gave us an extra mini session because she loved an idea we had of doing a shoot on the ice at Steinburg. Linda is extremely responsive and quick to call or text back. She was amazing on the wedding day itself. She really helped keep a timeline going for the day! We had some issues with the venue next door (Lemp Mansion) who were having an outdoor jazz festival next to our outdoor wedding. We changed our ceremony time to accommodate this, but we could still hear it during any time our music was not playing during the reception, which could really cause issues during speeches. Linda went over to Lemp Mansion herself to find out when there would be a break in music so that we could have our toasts and speeches done then! She is a remarkable person, so accommodating and yet so professional. She is amazing! She even helped the boys put their boutonnieres on! And as a plus, she was the most affordable photographer I found with 2 shooters for 8 hours! Her assistant Kim was also wonderful. I cannot recommend Linda Rivard Photography highly enough! My sisters are also looking forward to her shooting their weddings (probably years from now, but they loved her!) and a friend has also set up a portrait session for her daughter with Linda. I really cannot recommend her highly enough!Hiring Linda Rivard as our photographer was probably one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding! We wre married in August of 2017.

Linda was one of the best choices my husband and I made while planning. As wedding amateurs Linda walked us through our day with total confidence--just her arriving morning of gave me some relief from my welling anxiety. Linda went above and beyond her job description as she wrangled family members to take group photos and even found us a good location to shoot outside during torrential rain (the record high for St. Louis). She is so friendly that some guests thought we knew her on a personal basis. While I haven't seen all the photos yet, our engagement photos were gorgeous and I can't imagine the wedding photos will be anything but. Her assistant Shawn was also amazing and kept the rowdy groomsmen at bay while taking photos. Every single time we talked to Linda before and during the wedding I was reminded why we chose her- she's relaxed, confident, and does really great work. We absolutely loved having her as part of our day, we could not have made a better choice.Linda was one of the best choices my husband and I made while planning.
