“Crafting Stories That Resonate and Engage”

With a keen eye for detail and a passion for filmmaking, I’ve dedicated myself to creating visually captivating and emotionally engaging videos tailored for marketing and social events. For me, filmmaking is more than just pressing the record button—it’s about telling stories that resonate, transport viewers, and leave a lasting impact.

In today’s fast-paced world, content needs to captivate instantly. Whether I’m shooting a dynamic promotional video, documenting an unforgettable social event, or crafting short-form content for a brand’s social media, I approach each project with meticulous care. From scouting the ideal locations to framing every shot, I ensure that each scene aligns with the client’s vision and marketing goals.

Attention to detail is at the heart of my work. I believe the magic lies in the small, often overlooked moments—the ones that add authenticity, depth, and a unique character to every story. My goal is to create content that not only captures attention but also engages viewers, driving brand loyalty and connection.

Drawing inspiration from the rich history of cinema, I’m constantly studying and honing my craft. Each project offers a chance to blend classic storytelling with modern-day marketing needs, helping brands and clients connect with their audiences through high-quality, impactful videos that stand the test of time.

"Capturing Timeless Moments"

My name is Michael Hart-Russell I am the owner of HartPhotographySTL. I started photography in college but it was def a long journey to get there. I started off as a bio major, but as time when on, my true calling was calling me. Photography has always been apart of my life even without me knowing it. My mother was the photographer for all the family events, so naturally she had old cameras. This is what lead me to my first contact for my calling.

 

After switching from bio to photography, my college career started to take off. After graduating from Webster University with my degree in photography, I began my photography journey.

 

Photography is an escape from the ugly of the world. I use photography to show the beauty in this crazy world of ours. Without photography there is no way for us to grow, we can’t see where we have been if there is no proof of it. So photography is a time capsule as well, let’s work and create something that will stand the test of time....

I have been blessed to have been able to work with some really talented people here in Saint Louis and out side of the city. I have worked with; The Saint Louis American, HealthWorks for kids, Phi Beta Sigma, Zeta Phi Beta, Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Shoe Fly, Stackaholic, Aida Ade, Slink Johnson aka “Black Jesus,” Smino and many more.
