Welcome to Five Elements Photography

My name is Daniel Lacroix with Five Elements Photography, and I am a professional photographer in the St. Louis region. I share my images for you to enjoy and get inspired. I also offer photography services, such as portraits, family photos, real estate photography, and small event photography.

In addition to being a photographer, I have worked in the healing arts for the last 22 years as a professional Massage Therapist. Through my study of the healing arts, I have been very inspired by the eastern approach to healing, in particular the Chinese medicine philosophy of the five elements: water, wood, fire, earth, and metal. In photography, there are also five elements in the composition of a photograph: line, shape,  texture, pattern, and color. My work incorporates aspects of the five elements from both Chinese medicine and photography, which you can see as you explore the Five Elements galleries throughout my website.
