Once Like a Spark Wedding Co.

  • Serves Holts Summit, MO

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

OLAS were the easiest vendor I worked with throughout the wedding process. Their quick and efficient communication gave me the peace of mind I needed when it came to wedding photos. I had a very specific vision for our imagery, and OLAS and our photographer were more than accommodating as I neurotically guided some photos. Our photographer came equipped with a great attitude and even better skills in capturing our day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photography experience.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Timeless, unique storytelling in New York and beyond through film and digital work — Pearl Lee Photo captures every fleeting moment, transforming your most cherished events into enduring keepsakes. Pearl’s work draws inspiration from the nostalgia of her parents' wedding album and the soulful rhythms of Elvis Presley’s music (which she and her grandfather spent long drives listening to)…

Pearl Lee Photo was an incredible tea ceremony photographer for our special day. Pearl was so communicative via phone, text, and email, and she was so helpful in answering all of my questions, especially since I had no experience in tea ceremonies. Her vintage style photos were so touching, and I'm so glad she was able to capture my grandma and I in these moments. She definitely was something I didn't know I needed - her professionalism was amazing, and she worked very efficiently, knowing the best shots and how to direct everyone. I loved having Pearl as our photographer and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for beautiful, timeless tea ceremony and wedding photos.

Here’s a small confession: I’m not very comfortable in front of a camera. Oh I can take a decent self-portrait, but once someone else is taking my photo, everything falls apart: where do my arms go? Does my stance look normal? And oh no, was that smile natural? So if that happens to you when the camera comes out, no worries! I know how you feel.

Dave was fun to work with. My husband is usually very uncomfortable with getting his picture taken but Dave kept him at ease during our engagement shoot and on the wedding day. He was up for any suggestions but also had a lot of great unique ideas. I live in NY and Dave was flexible in scheduling the engagement shoots around mine and my husband’s travel plans. On the day of the wedding he instantly blended in with our family and friends which lead to amazing photos. I love my photos and highly recommend Dave Moore.
