Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding day was just perfect! We hired photo and video from Ivory Grove. The planning process was very organized— lots of thoughtful communication on what pictures we wanted, moments to be sure to capture, etc. The entire day ran smoothly, and we were very happy with the shots the photographer and videographer were taking (all the fun getting-ready pics, first look, etc). When the fantastic day is over, however, all you have to look back on are the pictures and videos, so we stayed a little nervous until receiving all the photos and footage. And WOW! We are so happy— Everything turned out beautiful! We also enjoyed going through all the raw video footage and watching our guests enjoy the day. Highly recommend Ivory Grove!

Noire Studios

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,925
  • Serves Kansas City, 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.

Hey there, I’m Bailey, the face behind B&B Photography. Now 27, my love for art started at a young age so ending up here, creating art for a living was no surprise! From capturing milestones, to moments as big as “I do” - I love photography of all kinds. Need timeline help? You got it. Brides of b&b can always ask me to assist in their timeline creation.

Awarded Best of Zola
The first time I met Bailey was at my engagement shoot on my farm. I’ve had plenty of sessions with family and individual photographers, so I am comfortable in front of the camera, but my future husband is not at all. Bailey gave great instruction and made us both feel relaxed during our session. Can’t wait for the wedding next year!

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

Kansas City, MO
  • Photojournalistic style

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
There are a million amazing and wonderful things I can say about Caitlyn! From the moment we met her we knew we had found the best photographer in the KC metro area! She listened to our ideas for our engagement photos and executed them perfectly. She provided the most detailed wedding photo questionnaire to ensure we had time to get photos with everyone. We could not be happier with our photos and will definitely reach out to Caitlyn for any and all additional photo needs!

Hi, I’m Erin and I love telling stories. I'm Midwest based, Kansas City to be specific, but I'm a Michigan girl at heart and love to travel! My favorite way to share the world through my eyes is from behind a camera lens. Your story is beautiful, and worth sharing.

Erin was everything we were looking for!! I knew her style was perfect for us. From initial communication she was there to answer any questions during the whole process, even when I had a list of general wedding questions not related to photography! Erin made us feel very comfortable with our engagement pictures. She knew all the right poses and places to shoot! She also helped us keep our big day in line with a timeline of events which was so helpful. Erin made sure she captured any specific pictures we wanted as well. My entire family complimented her personality and ease of the process (multiple times too!). We had sneak peeks the same night of our wedding. Our pictures came back faster than expected and they were absolutely stunning. Every single one. You cannot go wrong with choosing Erin to capture your special day!!!

A Day To Adore Photography

Kansas City, MO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,400

Taking the photo is only a fraction of my job. I’m the cheerleader, usher, keeper of the timeline, and stealth ninja anticipating what’s coming next. After 10 years and more than 200 weddings, I’ve learned a trick or two about how to navigate the unique challenges of a wedding day. I’ve learned that planning for the inevitable means getting to enjoy the unexpected. I’ve learned when to take center stage and be the conductor to ensure that your must-have shots are checked off that list. But, I’ve also learned when to be still and wait for the relationships surrounding you to show their beautiful touches of joy that long to be captured.

As a wedding planner, I strive to put together teams of vendors that are excited to work together to make the client's wedding day the BEST day they can possibly make it! And I have to say every time I work with Deanna she makes the clients day so bright and easy for them. Even if that means a little extra work on her end. She goes above and beyond! You can tell that she is made for her job!!!

  • Serves Kansas City, MO

My name is Jillian and I'm a photographer and artist in Kansas City My goal is to capture you. Every couple, family, person is different, and I want to make sure your uniqueness comes through in the images of your special days. My style tends to lean into rich colors and textures. Are you a couple that doesn't want to have a typical wedding? I'm a photographer that doesn't want to give you typical images! I always tear up at hand written vows. I love my partner and my two dogs Moonshine and Chosen One, and my cat Bucket.

Jillian at Youngbird Photo (j.guthrie_photo on Instagram) is such a true joy and delight to work with. Not only did she come to photograph our small May ceremony, but she photographed a first look photo session with us after we canceled the reception!! My dress was in covid lockup in May, so I wasn't able to wear it at the original ceremony. Jillian made sure that we had pictures of the dress, and captured a first look moment for us, and that will forever mean the world to me. She even came over to photograph the centerpieces that we had worked so hard on!! She makes people feel so comfortable and has such an amazing eye for what will make a beautiful shot. She is immensely talented and an absolutely delightful person. And bonus, she works with any budget. She truly believes that every couple deserves beautiful photos, and will work with you, whatever your situation is. Case in point, she's done our engagement photos, our small ceremony photos, and now our first look photos, and in every instance, she went above and beyond for us. I will recommend her forever, and still cannot completely put into words how much she and her photos mean to us!

Mariah Selena Portraits

Kansas City, MO
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

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!

Hey Tay

Kansas City, MO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

When I was looking for my own wedding vendors, it was important to me that I find people with similar world views that fit into my budget and were behind how laid back my vision for my wedding was. I am here to advocate for you. What that really looks like is you telling me you want something and me saying "treat yo self". I want to help you capture memories of your day the exact way you want it to share with your family, your friends, & yourself for years and years to come. So, if you're down to hop on that dance floor with me and feel how effortless it is to be 100% yourself in front of the camera, hit me up. I'm excited to meet you.

For our photography we used Hey Tay Photography. I have struggled with writing these vendor reviews because I cannot even begin to describe just how incredible my experience with Tay has been. I knew from the jump that I wanted Tay to do our photos for the wedding. For starters I have been in front of Tay’s camera multiple times and am continuously in amazement with the work that she produces, the way she makes you feel, and the energy that she brings every single time. She did our engagement session out in downtown Kansas City and watching her creative wheels turn as she found the perfect places and perfect views was so much fun! She then came and did our wedding. Her eye for details is unmatched and it shows in her stunning work. We received our sneak peaks within days of the wedding, and received our entire album less than two months after the wedding. Tay is phenomenal and her work is even better! She is incredibly professional and organized and rides hard for her clients. At one point something was bothering me on our wedding day and I mentioned it and the first thing she said was, “do you want me to take care of it”. She is enthusiastic, sincere, encouraging, and arguably one of the best wedding photographers in Kansas City. I truly could sing her praises all day, but will spare you. HIRE HER!
