Noire Studios 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,925
  • Serves Independence, MO

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Noire Studios was wonderful! The communication was prompt and professional from the beginning. Noelle guided us through each step and was very quick to respond to (ALL) my questions. Each image was exactly how we remembered the day and we can't wait to relive them through the years. We we're so glad to have found such an amazing photography team.

I'm your bad ass business owner, question answerer, boutonniere pinner, and type-A personality. I spend my days editing your photos and videos with at least one fur baby on my lap. When I'm not working, you'll find me binge watching Grey's Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, or Glee...also with at least one of my cats on my lap. Cats are life.

Elizabeth, Kyle, and her team were amazing - from the first initial Zoom call all the way to picking up my wedding album and everything in between. The process is detailed, so that decisions are made prior to the big day, which helps to alleviate decisions on the day-of. Her photography is out of this world with the angles she finds and the moments she is able to capture. Kyle also has quite the eye for capturing clips throughout the day that make such a spectacular video. 10/10 recommend this duo and their team!!

We were so pleased with Joy Photo and Video for our wedding day. From the start, their communication was helpful, timely, and clear. They were able to capture everything we wanted in both photos and video, and helped us stay organized throughout the day. While our original video was not quite what we expected, we had a great phone call with them to explain exactly what we wanted changed, and the final video turned out amazing. The photos were also fantastic - we couldn't be happier with the quality and value we received from Joy Photo and Video. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a budget-friendly but high-quality photography and videography team for their wedding.

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

I love working with down to earth couples who want to have a fun, memorable and glam wedding day! Most weddings typically have a tight budget & timeline so I work with both to help make your day as stress free as possible! I put the couple first with everything on their day to ensure we capture as much as possible so you have images you want to share with friends and family to reminisce over for the rest of your life!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were terribly disappointed when COVID caused us to cancel our 200 person wedding. In the midst of terrible uncertainty (remember those very early days of the pandemic?!) we planned a micro-wedding with just our parents as witnesses. Every bride dreams of her wedding day, and all of the special moments that go with it. We are so incredibly fortunate and thankful that Emily captured every single one. From the detail shots, to the getting ready images - despite our big day looking nothing like we'd originally planned - Emily documented the experience beautifully. After the ceremony, we headed off to key Kansas City landmarks where Emily took the time to pose and primp us so we looked our absolute best. The photos turned out so wonderfully, we got extra large prints that we proudly display in our hearth room. For couples looking for someone who will effortlessly capture the candid moments, and pay close attention to all of the details for those classic posed portraits, Emily Owens Photography is absolutely the right choice!

My passion for wedding photography stems from my love of storytelling. Weddings are filled with moments of joy, laughter, and love, and I believe in honoring every genuine connection and fleeting glance that happens throughout the day. Every couple has a unique story, and my goal is to help you relive yours for years to come through images that evoke the same emotions you felt on your wedding day. Being in Business for 6years with over 120 Wedding shot across the country.

KP is exceptional photographer, from his clear communication before the wedding to his high energy on the big day. We loved his natural, candid style, which beautifully captured the moments of the day. Additionally, his work was both timely and affordable—he sent over preview images within a week and the full gallery within a month. Dont forget to use shimmer or baby oil to get the oily look. he will recommend it for you. hahaha

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend hiring Caleb for your wedding, or any event.
