Hi, I'm Belle!



I'm the photographer behind Belle Peirce Photography.

I'm an artist, a story teller, and someone who has always been drawn to the little things that make life interesting.

my love for photography started with simply wanting to capture the world around me. Over time, that turned into something much bigger. I earned my BFA in photography from southern illinois university edwardsville, where i continued to grow my eye for composition, storytelling, and the art of seeing things a little differently.




today, i bring that same love for creating into every session i photograph.


A little about my approach


i love photographs that feel real. the in-between moments, the unexpected laughs, the little details, and the moments that happen when nobody is thinking about the camera.


my approach combines candid, documentary, and artistic photography. I want to give you images that feel like you, rather than something overly posed or forced.


Whether i'm photographing a wedding, a family, an athlete, or a small business, i'm always looking for the personality and staory behind what's in front of my camera

Beyond the camera


when i'm not photographing you, you'll probably find me appreciating the outdoors, taking photos of wildlife, experimenting with film photography, or finding inspiration in the everyday things around me, or even just hanging out with my cats and bearded dragon



i'm someone who notices the little details, loves a creative challenge, and is always looking for something new to photograph
