Stevie Nicole Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,550
  • Serves Riverside, MO

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 Riverside, MO

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.

I cannot recommend Caitlyn enough!! I've been so lucky to work with Caitlyn in the past through my sister's wedding (so I know how amazing she is and how fantastic her picture are), but working with her from the bride's POV was just as amazing! Everything from our initial inquiry with her, to our wedding day was seamless. Caitlyn had great communication with us; responding to emails within 1-2 days, checking in with us on the wedding planning journey, offering support and advice in all areas of wedding planning, even emailing to give updates on the wedding gallery editing process. My husband and I are just naturally very awkward people and had never taken professional photos together before. We were worried that our awkwardness would come out in the pictures/we wouldn't know what to do other than just stand and smile. What we loved about working with Caitlyn, was that she was just there as a fly on the wall capturing pictures of us as we were sitting and talking and laughing together. She would give us pose ideas and ideas to make each other laugh, and overall made us feel very comfortable in a situation where we would not typically feel comfortable. On our wedding day, there was probably 5-6 inches of snow on the ground; Caitlyn brought her snow boots with her to our wedding day and marched through the snow with us to give us the most amazing wedding photos! The snow pictures are by far my favorite pictures from our day. Caitlyn delivered a MASSIVE wedding gallery of so many fantastic photos! I feel as if she captured all the different moments of our wedding (e.g., getting ready, vows, first looks, ceremony, reception, etc) perfectly. I love all the photos of our guests from the ceremony and reception; with the day being so busy it's hard to talk to every single guest, but having these pictures is special because we know they were there and excited to celebrate with us. One thing I recommend to future brides booking with Caitlyn, is to schedule a meeting with her to sit down and make sure your shot list has all the necessary combinations. Our family photos are some of our favorite pictures, but when my husband and I were putting together our shot list, we forgot some combinations of people that we felt strongly about getting more 1:1 pictures with. A meeting with Caitlyn to discuss your shot list, will help to eliminate any opportunity for missed combinations. Overall, Caitlyn did a fantastic job capturing my husband and I from our engagement pictures, to the wedding day, but also capturing our relationships with family and friends through wedding day pictures (e.g., getting ready, reception, etc.). We plan to use Caitlyn to capture all of our best life adventures from here on out! :)

Natalie Nichole Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Riverside, MO

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!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Riverside, MO

There is nothing I love more than capturing special moments between loved ones - whether it be bride and groom or parents and their children. I'm best at the in-between moments that you weren't expecting. The picture catches you off guard and makes you say "wow, I didn't know you got that". I'm always looking for real emotions and interactions.

Shalis and team went above and beyond. They were able to bring more life into the wedding with the creative ways of taking photographs and video! We such had a blast, thank you! Will be giving out your information to friends for sure!

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.

Let me tell you about my amazing experience with George Street Photo. From start to finish, they were there every step of the wedding planning process. They made it very easy on the wedding day. Not only were the photographers (John and the associate photographer Craig) professional, they went above and beyond on the big day to make us comfortable. Our venue did not have many picturesque spots for photography, but John and Craig killed it! They made it work and caught amazing photos outside and inside the venue as well. They talked to us like we were good friends, and posing for the shots was made simple and easy. They shot over 1,500 photos, all of which captured the moment and were very special to us. They are very high quality, and when I tell you the turnaround time for the photos was fast, well, it was FAST. They had those photos ready for us within 3 weeks. I’ve been told people wait much longer for their photos. I’m glad we picked George Street Photo, and had John and Craig on our special day. Thank you.

I commit to a limited number of Weddings per year to ensure that your day remains a priority. Photography is all about connection and your photographer will be one of the biggest and longest-lasting connections you’ll share with any of your wedding vendors. I strive to create beautiful portraits, but also a lasting relationship with my couples. When you book with us, you are not just a client, you become part of the JYP family! I am honored to have the opportunity to laugh…to cry…to share your love story.

Where do I even start? Jessica is probably hands down the easiest person we worked with on our wedding. We unintentionally scheduled our wedding on Mother's day and this was obviously an important day for her, but she worked with us anyway. She worked through our foolishness (my husband and I are incapable of being serious in most situations), and often would join in on the fun. She also provided a schedule of events which was incredibly helpful for me as I had no idea what I was doing. Jessica is an amazing photographer, but that is not really the best quality here. She is an amazing person all around and I highly recommend her!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

From our first consultation, it was clear that The Narrative Weddings (Photo Video) were the perfect fit to capture our perfect day. Their relaxed, efficient, and professional communication style put us at ease, and their work was truly dreamy and exactly what we wanted. The Narrative wasn't just another vendor - they were seamlessly woven in like old friends with cameras, capturing every moment from getting ready, to the first look, to the lively reception. We would book The Narrative 1000 times over if we could, as they understood exactly what we were looking for and delivered perfection in their photos.
