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.

Meghan at Spencer Studios was so much more than a photographer for us. She immediately recognized that we were struggling with our planners, especially day of, and stepped up. She went above and beyond in every single aspect. I truly believe she saved our day. Meghan fit so seamlessly into every aspect of our wedding day. She wasn't just our photographer, she was our voice and most importantly our friend who made sure everything went perfectly. She made sure that we took time to be thoughtful of each other and say the things we were thinking aloud to one another. Those are things you can't capture in a photograph, but she made sure we had them anyway. Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and she captured every single moment thanks to her very detailed questionnaire and timeline. Her eye for detail and beauty shines in every photo (all 2,400 of them). She told us that she loves to shoot weddings because the photos aren't just for us, they are for generations to come. That has been so true as we spend each anniversary with her artwork and have decorated our home with her little touches.

Photography and Videography is such an investment, and we knew we made the right decision with Ivory Grove. The communication was phenomenal as well as the turn around that we received both our videos and pictures. Lindsey set us up with Jianna (p) and Brian (v). Both of them were so amazing, made sure we were comfortable, and ensured to capture what we wanted and what we felt was important. We were blown away with the services provided and would recommend Ivory Grove to anyone!

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.

Stevie was so fun to work with and put us at ease during our engagement and wedding photos. She is super communicative and got our photos to us quickly. Our vision really came to life and everything we described to her as our dream aesthetic was captured in our photos.

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.

Caitlyn Cloud Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Caitlyn's communication was clear, efficient, and calming - exactly what we needed while planning a wedding long distance. On the day of, her positive energy and ability to seamlessly capture all the special moments, even ones we didn't get to see ourselves was invaluable. Caitlyn's beautiful, artistic photos now allow us to relive the joy and beauty of our wedding day. We are so grateful for her talented eye and the way she helped our day go so smoothly. Highly recommend Caitlyn Cloud Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, professional photographer who will contribute wonderful energy to your special celebration.

Weddings are my passion, it's not the decor, or the outfits, it's the pure LOVE between my couples. It is such an honor to be a part of my couples biggest day of their lives and the beginning of their marriage. Getting to use my talent to document their connection and all the amazing moments during the day is really a dream come true.

Awarded Best of Zola
From browsing Natalie’s social media & website, to our initial (and only) video call, we knew she was going to be a perfect match for us. She made us feel comfortable all day long, like we’d known her for years. No one would ever think we met for the first time on our wedding day. She caught all the special moments and details. She was on top of everything and used her creativity to find the best spots for the shots. She was extremely professional, organized, & understood (and even excelled in) her task of rallying our 18 person wedding party. And the icing on top of her amazing personality and skills, was she got us our sneak peek gallery in less than 24 hours. It was such a treat to have those to share as we reflected on our day. We just have looked at them hundreds of times. We’ve now received our full album in under a month. We are over the moon happy with her services and images she provided. She was a dream to work with and we highly recommend her!!

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.

  • 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!

We are experts in photojournalism, offering couples an unmatched level of value for their wedding photography and video services.

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 :)

From the video conference calls to the prompt replies to e-mails we always felt like they were there to help guide us through the process and address any of our questions. The photographers were personable and captured unique moments that we did not even know were happening throughout the wedding. Upon receiving the photos we were able to relive our special day all over again thanks to the numerous photos we received. The candid shots were our favorite. Thanks for making our perfect day that much more perfect.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories.

We promise you will love their work.

We booked Andrew Parfenov through Bellagala as our wedding photographer and couldn't be happier. We were looking for a photographer with a strong visual voice and a good mix of non-traditional/dramatic portraits and photojournalistic (candid) photos in their portfolio. Andrew brought the drama, the joy, and so much more! From the get-go, Andrew was a delight to work with - he shot our engagement photos and helped us find and arrange a venue for them - and immediately set us at ease. He goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot, the perfect lighting, the perfect pose. On our wedding day, Andrew took the lead on finding locations for photos around our venue, posing us/our bridal party/our family, and finding moments for candid shots at the reception. Multiple family members have reached out after the wedding to tell us how much they enjoyed Andrew's approach and how at ease they felt with him. If you're considering Andrew for your special occasion, book him - we can't recommend him highly enough!

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.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.
