Before photography, family memories were kept alive through annual reenactments of the year's best moments, despite Grandpa's continued miscasting as the mischievous puppy. Treasure your memories with today's Groupon: for $19, you get an in-studio family, senior, or engagement portrait session with one 10"x13" print (a $90 value), plus one web-optimized Facebook image (a $19 value) at Trotter Photo, with locations in Arnold, Manchester, and St. Peters (a $109 total value).

For four decades, Trotter Photo's seasoned shutterbugs have captured memorable expressions in creative, professional sessions. Half-hour photo shoots transform life’s most significant moments into crisp, clear pixels, preserving them in a more comfortable means than casting the family in bronze. Trotter invites groups of up to eight subjects to pose before their choice of flattering studio backgrounds, and the studio offers up an online gallery of previously captured images for inspirational perusal.

Standard soft lighting sends polite photons bouncing off smiling faces, optional vignette lighting saturates faces with bountiful beams, and the final incarnation of each shot can be delivered in black and white or color. A Facebook-optimized image ensures confident tagging, and it will be emailed to the client after the shoot.
