I did a lot of research to find a wedding photographer. I do a lot of research for everything, but I felt like it was especially important because if I’m paying so much for a wedding, I want all of the details chronicled beautifully so those memories can last forever. It was really important for me that the pictures looked super natural and not overly editted as if I was right back in the moment when I looked at them. Ivory Grove let me look at several of their photographers’ portfolios since I was worried they might have different styles. They were all very similar and beautiful, but I did like Erika’s the most and they set me up with her. Erika took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and she did a PHENOMENAL job. She got every angle of every moment, and a lot of my guests mentioned how impressed they were that she was getting on the ground for some shots, setting up lighting, and orchestrating everyone to make sure I got all the photos I requested. Ivory Grove finished editing the photos she took in only 2 weeks, and the album they sent has sooo many photos in it. I should have known because I got a lot of engagement photos back as well, but I was just blown away by the amount of gorgeous photos they gave me. It’s also so easy for me to download them onto my phone or computer. The investment was well worth it, but also they were more affordable than a lot of other photographers I’d looked into! Anyway, I can’t say enough good things about Erika, Lindsey, and anyone else who reached out throughout the planning process. Thank you Ivory Grove team!

Noire Studios 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,925
  • Serves Merriam, KS

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
Noire Studios was the best vendor on my wedding day! Noelle and her team made me feel at ease the moment they walked in. The day went beautifully and the images are stunning! We could not have asked for a better photographer!

Spencer Studios

Merriam, KS
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,400

I love capturing people in their very human moments. Images that really resonate with me are those which capture the essence of a person, a relationship, or just raw emotion. I search to photograph moments in which people reveal who they really are. This drive affects everything I do. Weddings are a breeding ground for these types of moments and emotions. Honest love, friendship, and joy. This is why I have chosen to specialize in this type of photography, because it speaks to me in a way than nothing else does.

  • Starts at $2,550
  • Serves Merriam, KS

Hi there! Nice to meet you! I’m a photographer, full-time executive assistant at a non-profit organization, graphic designer, true crime weirdo, and karaoke expert in Kansas City, Missouri. Most importantly, I’m a mom to a sweet baby boy and two pups, and I’m in love with my best friend. Twelve years ago, in a tiny Kansas town called Yoder, I started my little photo business. Since then, I’ve been so lucky to be able to create many life-long friendships with tons of incredible people throughout the Midwest and beyond.

We cannot recommend Stevie enough. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day she was absolutely amazing. Her personality makes you instantly feel comfortable and her laugh is contagious. She’s so responsive and has such good ideas for cool photos. She’s someone we want to use for photo sessions going forward and we CANNOT WAIT to get the rest of our wedding photos in. She’s a 100/10!

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Merriam, KS

I grew up in a divided home, literally. Splitting time between my parents after their divorce, often being in the middle of their fighting, made me grow into a very empathetic person. It’s become the biggest strength I take with me into wedding days. My documentary style stems from my ability to sense when special moments are about to happen. I am able to sense emotions that aren’t necessarily visible, sense when to come close and when to be a fly-on-the-wall, and sense what/who is important to you therefore important to photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
Absolutely phenomenal and I cannot recommend them enough! Caitlyn took beautiful photos that we can't stop bragging about and was such a wonderful help on our wedding day. From the start, they were fantastic with communication and helped us put together a photography package that made sense for our wants/budget. They were very upfront about their commitment to inclusivity which made us confident in working with them. They sent lots of helpful information in the lead up to the wedding. On the day of the wedding, they were so kind and professional, perfectly balancing posed shots and being a "fly on the wall" during the ceremony. They were phenomenal about managing tricky family issues, last-minute changes, and the weather. They helped us feel relaxed and confident in our photos despite us being camera-shy. The photos beautifully captured both the big moments from our ceremony and small details. We got a preview of our photos on the same day! The full album was delivered within a month! With one photographer for two hours, we got around 300 beautifully-edited photos. Overall, Caitlyn was phenomenal and I cannot recommend them enough.

I have been a photographer since 2014 and an artist my entire life. My business began to blossom in Kansas City in 2018 after I got married. My true passion is helping brides and grooms capture their wedding beautifully. Getting married was the best moment of my life. With every wedding I work, I feel that spark for my passion to help you make your perfect wedding come alive! I am a dreamer and hard worker.

Awarded Best of Zola
As one who officiates many weddings around the country, I'm always appreciative when the photographer is someone easy to work with and clear on what they are looking for. Serenity knows her stuff. She communicates just a pro should communicate. She's focused on the bride and groom and works to please them first. She's tactful with those that want to add their opinion, but she makes sure to check with the bride and groom before making any decisions. I hope to work with Serenity the next time I'm in her area.

I’m the face behind the camera over here at Carlie Nicole Photography! I was born & raised in KC, and lets just say….I love my city!

I'm Mollie, the owner & lead photographer at Paper Sun Photo. I’ve always loved photographing people, and after finishing my BFA in Photography I have worked with over 150 couples to beautifully document their wedding love stories. My style is creative and colorful, encompassing the big picture as well as the little details and joyful in-between moments that make weddings one of a kind. I am so grateful to be trusted with the responsibility of documenting my couples’ wedding days and absolutely committed to delivering photographs that capture the moment and will be treasured and adored.

Mollie was such a pleasure to work with! She was easy to coordinate with before the wedding day as we discussed the itinerary, timing for sunset photos, and locations for the best shots. Her calm presence on the wedding day kept everything flowing smoothly and stress free. After the wedding I was blown away with the special moments and stunning photos she was able to capture. Do yourself a favor and hire Mollie as your wedding photographer! You won't be disappointed.

  • Serves Merriam, KS

Hi there, I am Shana Wooley and the one smiling back at you from behind the camera, helping you plan “all the things”, and standing by you on your big day. I am a native of the south (I grew up in Alabama) and I moved to Kansas City in 2012. I studied photography at Austin Peay University and started W the Studio in 2009 (which is the same year that my “tinybff” Luke was born). I met my very amazing husband, Josh, online (so no judgement here if you’ve found the love of your life on the www).

Working with W The Studio for our wedding photography was an absolute pleasure. Shana and her team were incredibly responsive, friendly, and detail-oriented throughout the entire process. They listened closely to our vision and delivered creative, beautiful portraits that perfectly captured the special moments of our day - even when we had to adapt plans due to unexpected rain. The turnaround time for getting our photos back was impressively fast, and we're thrilled with the end result. We highly recommend W The Studio to any couple looking for talented, professional wedding photographers who will go above and beyond to make your day perfect.

  • Serves Merriam, KS

Welcome! I'm Matthew! I'm a lifestyle photographer specializing in wedding photography and family photography. In life, there are planned moments, unplanned moments, tears, laughter, excitement, and surprise. Photography should capture the essence of those moments. It’s my pleasure to take part in the lives of my clients and to make these moments into timeless, tangible treasures.

Matt is so talented and amazing to work with. He's become our family photographer, capturing our pivotal life moments. We first met Matt when he photographed my husband's proposal. Over the years, he's captured such joy during our engagement photoshoot, our wedding day, maternity shoots, and our son's first birthday. He even helped us capture treasured family photos with our daughter after she was stillborn. They're one of the few mementos we have of her. Matt truly gave us a gift in providing those memories with the photoshoot. He is a very talented photographer who's always open to trying out poses I see on Pinterest, but he's also phenomenal at capturing truly beautiful candid moments. He always brings such positive energy to our shoots and shares in our excitement during the shoot itself and the planning process. On top of being incredibly talented and kind, he's very flexible, great at communicating, and gets the end product back to us really quickly. With Matt as your photographer, you'll not only wind up with beautiful photos, but you'll also end up with memories to last a lifetime from the shoot itself. I know we have!

Brigitte Patterson Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Merriam, KS

In my 10+ years of experience documenting weddings, one thing has remained the same - I approach each wedding that I photograph with the same passion and dedication as I would document my very own. I believe that you deserve to have your day captured in a way that is as unique as you are, and you can rest assured that my combined education and tenured wedding photography experience ensures that I have both the technical and creative experience needed to truly bring your vision to life.

Brigitte is FANTASTIC and her work simply speaks for itself. I was looking for a timeless and classic photographer and I got just that. Her photos are a great mix of candid and natural, and beautifully styled, and her editing style is tough to come across (bright and colorful). I was also extremely drawn to her black and whites photos, and THRILLED!!! to have a collection of them. I feel like every single one of my photos belong in a Vogue magazine. Brigitte was great to work with - flexible and accommodating. She traveled to New York to take our engagement photos! My wedding day was a huge celebration and full of happiness and great vibes - looking back at my album put me right back on my wedding day and made me want to experience it all over again! (It's only been 3 months!) I could go on and on about specifics, but the photos really do speak for themselves. Brigitte was my #1 vendor. I have never felt as beautiful as I have on my wedding day, and now I have a million photos to remind me of it. My family and friends have all raved about the quantity and quality of my photos. I could not recommend Brigitte enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

We are so happy we went with Sound Originals for our wedding photos! Gabriella the planning specialist, was SO helpful with our wedding day timeline and communicated everything promptly and informatively. The client portal is also very helpful for planning the timeline, updating info/details, asking questions, and viewing our finished photos. Our photographer, Mike, was a blast to work with and we highly recommend him for those in the Chicago area. He was assigned to us about 2 weeks before the big day (due to a conflict with the photographer we were originally assigned) and he made sure to reach out to me right away so he could get to know us and get caught up on our timeline and details. His fun, goofy personality kept us at ease throughout the day, he did a great job wrangling the bridal party, and helping with poses so we felt comfortable having our photos taken all day. He was also super efficient with our group photos and sunset photos- we actually had time to sit down and eat dinner! We are in love with our wedding photos and 100% recommend Sound Originals (and MIKE)!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Our wedding photos turned out amazing and we get so many compliments on them! I highly recommend Grace for your wedding!
