Out of Character

Hello all

My name is Cheyenne and you may know me as Chey, Shay, PhotoChey (photo shy), or any spelling or pronunciation that comes vaguely close to those names. I’m based in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, and I am a self-defined Storyteller.

As much as any of us would hope for it to, LARP and immersive experiences do not pay my bills. When I’m not dreaming and storytelling I have the real-life corporate job of Audio Visual Specialist. I primarily work in hotels running anything from small board meetings to week-long Fortune 500 conferences, meeting and networking with people from all over the world while making sure that every individual feels seen and heard- in many ways.

I also do contract work to help fund my adventures. Sometimes that involves working for weeks as the lighting designer for a semi-professional theatre production and sometimes it’s just one or two days moving equipment around on a commercial photoshoot. And if ever my schedule is just a little bit lacking? I pick up shifts at a local jazz lounge, as a technician or sometimes even a bartender.

This is no portfolio, but here are a few examples of what I do:

If you’d like to help me pretend like I don’t overwork myself at all, feel free to buy me a coffee to get through another self-inflicted 60 hour week:
