PHILOSOPHYPhotography is more than a profession; it is an art form that bridges the present with the eternal. Maurice Young believes in the power of the camera to transcend mere documentation, transforming moments into lasting expressions of identity, emotion, and culture.
Rooted in the dynamic spirit of St. Louis, Maurice’s philosophy is centered on the idea that every subject—whether a person, place, or event—holds a unique story waiting to be told. His work is a dialogue between light, composition, and the human experience, driven by the conviction that great photography doesn’t just capture what is seen but evokes what is felt.

“I received my first 35mm camera as an 8th grade graduation gift. That camera was the beginning of my amazing journey behind the lens.”
