Breakdown STL Benefit!

Breakdown STL had a wonderful benefit dinner this month...it was a wonderful evening that included a gourmet dinner, an incredible band and dancing, plus the Breakdown team performed. Check out some of my favorite images from the evening:

The AMAZING Moulin was a perfect location! (I might add that it would be great for a wedding reception, too!)


Appetizer hour was truly elegant and wonderfully delicious!


I loved the lighting around the tables....really just created such a wonderful atmosphere.






They had some of the most wonderful auction items...it was hard not to bid on EVERYTHING!


The band was incredible!!!! Mary Kay, executive assistant of Breakdown STL, stepped up the microphone and WOWed us!


The band had everyone moving and grooving!


Tim Ezell, from Channel 2, spoke and led the evening's events...it was wonderful to meet him and Breakdown was very happy to have him part of this special evening.


Jenna Imergoot, executive director of Breakdown STL, gave a touching speech and introduced the wonderful students/staff of Breakdown.

The whole team!!! Breakdown STL, thank you for letting Tony and I spend such a wonderful evening with your entire staff, team, and board members...we were honored to be part of your benefit dinner!

Breakdown STL

Tony and I have had the privilege of being the official photographers for the amazing St. Louis Breakdown group. BreakDown STL is a peer to peer outreach program dedicated to making a positive difference in the youth culture. Through dance, drama, motivational speaking and multi-media, BreakDown STL tackles tough issues regarding sex, relationships, drugs and alcohol. This group of amazing volunteering high school and college students dedicate their time and energy into making a difference in St. Louis and beyond!

These are some cool portraits for their updated website...even more photos on our Synergy Photography Facebook page!

Tony and I have had the pleasure of being Breakdown St. Louis' official for a little over 2 years now. This organization does an amazing job of reaching out to high schools in their community to show that abstinence is the best choice. They are real...their show is real...and the effect is real! You can check out their website HERE.

Enjoy these pictures from their last session at Union Station...
