Saturday afternoon in St. Louis, a four alarm fire ripped through an occupied four story apartment building near Union and Waterman in the Central West End. The first heavy fire was reported around 3:20 pm, and within minutes it pushed into the roofline.
By the time the street filled with sirens, crews were already committing big resources. Three aerial waterways went up to hit the fire from above, and roughly 80 firefighters were on scene as the response escalated.
Then winter showed up to make it worse. All that water turning instantly to ice meant the city warned people to avoid the area because streets and sidewalks were getting dangerously slick.
This is what a scene like that feels like from the curb.
Air that tastes like wet ash.
A steady roar you can feel in your chest.
Ladders rising like steel silhouettes.
Windows breathing smoke.
And firefighters moving with that calm focus that only shows up when everything is trying to go sideways.
No injuries were reported.
If you live in this city, you know these blocks. Today they look normal. Saturday they were lit by strobes, headlamps, and orange glow, with warming buses staged nearby for displaced residents.
St. Louis Fire Department, thank you for doing the work most people never want to see up close.

Downtown St.Louis.
Some of what you’re looking at won’t be here much longer.
Downtown St. Louis is full of history, hidden details, and stories waiting to be told. From the ongoing demolition of the iconic Millennium Hotel to the overlooked corners of our city, everything has a story, and photography gives us a way to preserve it.
That’s what I love about exploring these streets. Finding beauty in the ordinary, documenting change, and capturing moments that one day will become history.
Tomorrow is our final SEKONDTRY photo walk of 2026! Come explore downtown, meet fellow creatives, and see the city through a different lens.

And before you go… swipe all the way to the last slide for a little sneak peek at something I’ve been working on.
The city keeps changing, and so does SEKONDTRY. More coming soon.

To my beautiful fiancée, who doesn’t even have Instagram, haha.
I can’t wait to call you my wife.
You’ve been my number one fan since the beginning of this crazy ride I’ve been on as a photographer. You’ve pushed me, supported me, believed in me, and encouraged me to keep going even when I didn’t believe in myself.
One thing I’ve always loved about you is that you love me for me. Not because of what I do, who I know, or the cool things I sometimes get access to. You don’t care about clout, fake people, or all the flashy things people get so caught up chasing. You’ve always been yourself, and I love that about you.
We’ve traveled to multiple countries, taken countless road trips, explored cities together, and walked more miles than I can count, usually because I wanted to take just one more photo. You’ve seen more of this big, beautiful world with me than anyone else, and I wouldn’t trade that for anything or anyone.
Funny enough, the person I love most is the one who never really wants her photo taken. But I actually love that about us. For as much of my life as I spend behind a camera, some of my favorite memories are the ones that only you and I have. No photos, no social media, just us.
You’re inspiring, beautiful, stubborn, a little crazy, and somehow you put up with all my crazy too. You push me to be a better person every day, even when I don’t make it easy.
I’ve spent years chasing beautiful things around the world with a camera, and somehow the most beautiful part of it all has been right beside me.
We’ve already seen so much of this world together, and there’s still so much more I want to see with you.
I love you. Forever and always.

ST. LOUIS PHOTO WALK ROUND TWO! This Saturday!
Please SHARE!
Saturday, November 7th, 2026
10 AM until whenever

One last photo walk before we call it a year.
With fall around the corner, we’re getting together one more time to grab some coffee, wander the streets, take some photos, and enjoy Downtown St. Louis before winter rolls in.
Bring your camera, your phone, or just come hang out and walk. Doesn’t matter if you’ve been shooting for 20 years or just picked up a camera yesterday. Everyone is welcome.
This will be our last photo walk until spring 2027, so if missed the first one, this is your chance. Don’t be the person who says they’ll catch the next one. You’ll be waiting a few months.
RSVP by sending me a DM so I can get a headcount.
Good people, good coffee, good photos, and one last walk before the year is over.
See you out there.
