Noire Studios

  • Serves Shawnee Mission, 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!

We are a husband and wife team… no, I don't like that expression (overused)… we are both photographers who love the visual arts and who love working together. We love our kids, we love the ocean (although we currently live about as far away from the ocean as you can get), we love music, we love Jesus, and we love photographing people and telling stories through the imagery that we create.

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Best decision we could have made. Communication was wonderful from the start and the photos are amazing. I felt Hdi has a gift of photography and what will look great. From the little details they were on it. She made me feel like family. Mostly, her images are what we have left of our day and I’m so glad we went with Timeless Imagery. Don’t cut your hours short - so you don’t feel rushed. Best advice I could give.

I randomly entered Anderson’s giveaway for a free engagement shoot and was shocked when I actually won! At first, I was skeptical, but Anderson followed up and patiently answered all my (many!) questions. From the start, he felt more like a friend than a photographer. He helped us pick the perfect location and outfits, and when we had to reschedule due to an emergency, he made sure we still got our shoot—never once making us feel like “just another client.” On the day of the shoot, Anderson took the time to get to know us as a couple, and the whole session felt fun, natural, and full of love. He kept us moving, laughing, and feeling like ourselves. The preview video and final photos were absolutely stunning—we were in tears. Our friends and family were too. We’re not wedding planning yet, but when we are, Anderson will be our first call. Highly recommend—he’s the real deal.

The Retro & Modern Group is a wedding photography and videography company blending vintage charm with contemporary creativity. With a unique mix of classic aesthetics and modern techniques, they capture weddings in a way that feels both nostalgic and fresh. From dreamy film-inspired edits to crisp cinematic visuals, they turn every love story into a one-of-a-kind experience.

Honestly, hiring them was the best investment we made in the whole wedding. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the food and the flowers, but the photos and video are what really last. They made us feel completely comfortable and always seemed to know the right angle. When we got the gallery back, I couldn’t stop scrolling through it. Each photo tells a story, and the video ties it all together so beautifully. The editing is not over the top, just the perfect blend of modern and classic. My friends and coworkers couldn’t believe how good the photos looked. They worked tirelessly the entire day, never missing a beat. I felt like they really cared about us as a couple, not just as another job. Truly the highlight of our whole experience.

Based in the stunning landscapes of Colorado, Mist & Mountain Weddings specializes in capturing adventurous, heartfelt wedding moments through photography and videography. With a deep love for natural light and mountain backdrops, their team blends cinematic storytelling with candid emotion to create timeless keepsakes. Whether you're eloping on a mountaintop or celebrating in a rustic lodge, they turn your day into a beautifully told visual story.

I’m not usually someone who gets emotional over photos, but these hit me hard—in the best way. They managed to capture moments I didn’t even know I cared about until I saw them frozen in time: my best friend’s shaky toast, the way my partner smiled at me during the vows, even the dance floor chaos late into the night. Nothing felt staged or overdone—it was raw, real, and somehow still stunning. These photos aren’t just memories; they’re proof of how much love filled that day.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s 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.

Local to Colorado & native to Indiana I'm a photographer dedicated to helping couples bring their wedding vision to life. I believe that your love story is anything but boring, and your photos should reflect that. With 8 years of experience, I’ve captured clients through fun prompts and welcoming energy. I’m not gonna lie I’m a strong believer in truly connecting with my client. Yes I send ‘<3’ in my emails. Yes I’d love to fan girl over your wedding deets with you! Mimosas? Coffee? I’m down

My fiancé and I had been doing all this research to find a photographer and our wedding was fast approaching. It was March and our wedding is in July. We came across Sara, found out that she would be moving to Colorado and was actually in Colorado until Friday morning (it was Wednesday night). We have a wonderful phone call just getting to know her and her business and decided to book her the next day. She worked promptly to make time to shoot our engagement photos even though it was her boyfriend’s mom’s birthday. We just got the photos the other day and they are stunning. They capture our hearts, emotion, and beauty! So glad that we booked Sara for our wedding day! We know her photography will be amazing!! She is fun and easy to work with, obviously experienced, and just personable and makes the whole experience more enjoyable!

From rooftop vows in New York to villas carved into the cliffs of Italy, this work exists for those who value legacy over likeness. It’s not about quantity or convenience — it’s about creating imagery that endures.

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.

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

I walk through my life with an eye for light, stories, and emotion. I have been photographing weddings for just shy of a decade now and can say that the people, places, and stories I have witnessed have shaped me. The friends I have made along the way I continually try to invest in them and their families. I am excited that you are here and that you are interested in having me join this journey with you. If you are fired up for your wedding day, love life a little too much, and think we could be friends go ahead and send an inquiry. Let me tell your story in an intimate way that reflects who you both are together.

Max is phenomenal, not only as a photographer but as a human as well! We moved from Colorado to Arkansas shortly after getting engaged, and because we had already selected a wedding venue in Colorado, our plan was to hire Max for engagement photos in Arkansas only and go with a CO-based photographer for the wedding. After meeting Max and hearing his story, we knew we were going to forgo our original plan and hire him for both sets of photos. Our engagement shoot was so much fun, and my husband and I both felt comfortable the entire time (which is rare for us, we're awkward people!). We knew once we got our engagement photos back that hiring Max for our wedding was the right choice, and man did he prove us right! The second he arrived at our venue on wedding day, he fit right in and made everything feel fun instead of stressful. Our family, friends, and guests are still raving about how much they loved our photographer because he was a joy to talk with and brought such a positive energy to the event. My parents even commented that Max felt like family because he made everyone feel comfortable and truly brought out the joy in everyone while we did family photos. The photos we have received back so far are outstanding - Max has a great eye and his use of light is exactly what we wanted. We are forever grateful that he was willing to travel across the country to document our day.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Welcome! I'm Mariah! I first picked up a camera during a summer camp when I was only 10 years old. We were given a list of different objects to photograph around the building, and I fell in love with capturing the uniqueness of things as they were. Objects that were easily overlooked suddenly became exciting thanks to a photograph. I quickly began begging my parents for photography equipment and was gifted my first camera that Christmas. Fast forward 16 years, and I am embarking on a new career, doing what I am most passionate about...capturing, creating, and bringing memories - your memories - to life.

Where do we even start? From the planning process to wedding day and post-wedding, Mariah was our absolute best decision when it came to selecting a vendor. Mariah was helpful and communicative during the planning process, especially with our questions about timeline. On wedding day, Mariah was a busy bee capturing behind the scenes photos, photos of our guests, and us. We decided to do a first look off-site and Mariah captured the raw emotion that we both felt in that moment. I don't know how she did it! As for the photos, we provided Mariah with a shot list, but gave her creative freedom and she did not disappoint. We received the sneak peek within 24-48 hours and the full photo gallery within 4-6 weeks. On a personal note, Mariah is an absolute gem of a human. We felt so comfortable and natural with her, which can sometimes be difficult in front of a camera. She is a complete goofball and will keep both you and your party laughing. BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY!

I am passionate about documenting weddings with couples who wish to express their personalities and identities. I love working with people from many different backgrounds and getting to know you before the wedding day so that I can take photos that YOU love. All of my packages include a first consultation to discuss pricing, plan your engagement session and get to know one another. I also include a final consultation with couples to plan out your schedule and shot list so that we can be sure to write up a schedule that will let me take the types of photos you want. I also love to plan intimate elopement coverage and destination weddings.

One of the highlights of our wedding was working with Ailecia. She accomodated our needs to throw together a wedding quickly while my mother was in the hospital needing us to relocate our wedding from Texas to Kansas. Her professionalism and kindness was unrivaled. We managed to pull together several mini shoots during our time in the state and she was flexible and highly encouraging. I cannot rave enough about not only the supreme quality of our images, but the joy we had in working with such a wonderful woman. There are not enough good words to say about Ailecia and I look forward to using her for all our photography needs when we're back visiting family. Do yourself a favor and hire Ailecia immediately. You won't regret it.
