Larry Bommarito is a St. Louis-based photographer and creative director working under the name Sekondtry. His work spans documentary, music, commercial, editorial, architecture and portraiture, with a focus on people, place and the moments that give them character.
Based in St. Louis and available for assignments nationwide, Larry has spent years documenting the city while building a body of work across music, entertainment, sports, brands and editorial photography.
Since 2021, he has worked with the St. Louis Fire Department, documenting first responders and the communities they serve. His work in music has taken him from photo pits to the road, photographing artists including Nelly, The Black Keys, Knocked Loose, Ludacris, Metro Boomin, Killer Mike, The Amity Affliction and others.
Commercial and editorial assignments have included work with brands and organizations including Adidas, Rolex, Patagonia, Budweiser, Imperial Golf Company, the NHL and MLS. His photographs have also appeared in publications including St. Louis Magazine and Feast Magazine.
Beyond still photography, Larry has worked in film as a location scout and on-set photographer, including projects with the Missouri Film Office.
In 2025, he published his first book, Abandoned St. Louis: Disappearing Beauty, documenting the architecture, history and disappearing spaces of the city that helped shape his photographic voice.
“My goal is to photograph people and places in a way that feels honest to the moment. I want the work to outlive me—to become a record of what was here, who was here and what it felt like.”
