Ivory Grove is such an amazing company and we could not have had a better experience. The entire team spent so much time making sure there was proper communication and ensuring our wants were a priority.

Lover of all things photography. I have been a photographer for over 10 years and love what we do. I have an amazing team that helps me out. My husband also second shoots with me. I like to say you get two professionals for the price of one. I try to offer quality at a reasonable cost. I know photography can be daunting for some people and my goal is always to put people at ease.

Timeless Imagery & Media were such a pleasure to work with for our wedding. They were so open and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process, which put us at ease. The quality of their work was truly professional, and they had a wonderful family-oriented approach that made us feel comfortable. They were detailed, attentive, and incredibly flexible, contributing to our special day in so many positive ways. Beyond their exceptional service, they felt like family and were so accommodating - we couldn't be happier with the beautiful pictures they captured that will allow us to cherish our wedding memories forever.

  • Serves Marissa, IL

I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily is seriously amazing! We had an instant connection of trust and I knew our photos would be perfect. She was there for me through my entire planning process and helped guide me on any changes we needed. For our engagement photos, it was pouring rain and she had a backup plan asap. She makes the photos feel natural and nothing forced. For our wedding day, it rained yet again and Emily took charge of our wedding day. She creates a timeline for you. She was like my day of coordinator too! She came prepared with everything and anything you need. She made sure the day flowed as smooth as possible. Our wedding wouldn’t have been what it was, without her! We love Emily!!

I love working with down to earth couples who want to have a fun, memorable and glam wedding day! Most weddings typically have a tight budget & timeline so I work with both to help make your day as stress free as possible! I put the couple first with everything on their day to ensure we capture as much as possible so you have images you want to share with friends and family to reminisce over for the rest of your life!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were terribly disappointed when COVID caused us to cancel our 200 person wedding. In the midst of terrible uncertainty (remember those very early days of the pandemic?!) we planned a micro-wedding with just our parents as witnesses. Every bride dreams of her wedding day, and all of the special moments that go with it. We are so incredibly fortunate and thankful that Emily captured every single one. From the detail shots, to the getting ready images - despite our big day looking nothing like we'd originally planned - Emily documented the experience beautifully. After the ceremony, we headed off to key Kansas City landmarks where Emily took the time to pose and primp us so we looked our absolute best. The photos turned out so wonderfully, we got extra large prints that we proudly display in our hearth room. For couples looking for someone who will effortlessly capture the candid moments, and pay close attention to all of the details for those classic posed portraits, Emily Owens Photography is absolutely the right choice!

It's true what they say — when you know, you know. Something as special as that innate instinct to love and be loved by your person is art in itself. Keep the star-crossed feeling close with artfully directed storytelling photography designed to honor your love / your story / your wedding in all its authentic beauty. Let's hike a trail, drink cocktails on the roof, dance in a crowded street, let's capture your love for everything that it is. Let's do it all and make it as unforgettable as the moment you say, "I do!"

My wedding was a little atypical, we planned the entire thing in less than two months, had a crowd of 30 family members present, and had EVERYONE take an hour car trip into the National Park for our ceremony. The photographer who would capture all our wonderful memories was by far the most important vendor to me, so Lexi was the first person I booked! And thank goodness I did because I couldn’t have picked a more wonderful person to handle the uniqueness of our celebration than her. Lexi dealt with one date change, two location changes, and much more as my husband and I went through the decision making process in our short timeline. Lexi handled it all flawlessly, and showed up ready to help make our day special even in the middle of her own pregnancy! She traveled from states away, and made the Indiana Jones-esque drive into the mountains, to go above and beyond to shoot for us. Not only that but she got our preview out in less than 24 hours from the close of our reception, lightning speed! She was so kind and helped us feel comfortable and natural for two people who have never taken professional photos before. I would recommend anyone to Lexi for their wedding/elopement!

We are a husband and wife photography team based in St. Louis MO and available worldwide. We absolutely love what we do! Our main focus is to tell a story through the images we take at your wedding. The day will go by so fast and we want you to have a collection of images to relive each moment. We are always seeking clients who share our more laid back personalities, and enjoy the less traditional posed photos. Our style may not be for everyone and that's ok.

Rachel Myers Photography was nothing short of amazing for our wedding day. From the moment we first spoke, their communication style was quick, direct, kind, and personable - putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly astounding, with a structured, professional, and beautiful approach that captured the real, candid moments of our special day. Rachel was a true jack-of-all-trades, helping with everything from taping my dress to getting my jewelry on, and she was so sweet in wrangling our wedding party to get the shots she needed. Rachel and her partner Charlie were a fantastic team, and their communication was top-notch. They are funny, personable, patient, and articulate - and the final product speaks for itself. The photos are absolute magic.

I’ve always been a romantic, a dreamer. From watching my favorite movie of all time (Titanic) to daydreaming about meeting Prince Charming in a trip across the sea (even if I have to travel back to the 18th century to meet a ruggedly handsome Scotsman *cough cough*- big Outlander fan here.). I’ve always been in love with love. Fortunately, I've been able to give all of my creative energy and love for the arts to my photography. I’ve been photographing people on one of the happiest days of their lives for nearly a decade now and I still can’t get enough.

Emily was AMAZING! I couldn’t have imagined our wedding day without her, she made our day such a breeze. Planning a wedding is so stressful, but our pictures were something I did not have to worry about. Her prep work reassured me she knew exactly what I wanted. Our pictures turned out incredible! Not only did she capture our day exactly how I imagined, having her by our side made me at ease. She kept to the timeline, she was efficient, and not to mention a blast to work with! I can’t say enough good things about Emily. If you are anything like me and worry yourself sick, book Emily because you will not worry one bit! She is such a breath of fresh air in the midst of a busy, chaotic day. And after it’s all said and done, you will end up with pictures of your wedding day that make you smile every time you glance at them! Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Kenessey Studios is a mid to high end wedding & portrait photographer based in St. Louis MO. We have been working in the St. Louis area for several years now and really enjoy the people and venues in the area. Our style of shooting is a mixture of candid and posed shots that I think covers the bases for a large percentage of clients.

Shawn took our wedding photos last summer and he did a beautiful job. We felt so lucky to have a photographer who not only prepared us for what to expect but also put us at ease throughout the day. He gave us a ton of creative ideas for photos and was so patient with everyone. He made both our families feel comfortable in front of the camera and that is saying a lot! But what we really loved was how amazing the photos turned out. We were completely wowed at the quality of the photos - he caught everything we wanted and so much more. They are a beautiful reminder of love we felt on our wedding day.

Hi everyone! I'm a portrait and wedding photographer based in St. Louis, MO and Nashville, TN, but I love shooting destinations too. I love romance and capturing authentic love stories in photographs that you will cherish the rest of your life. My style is elegant, classic, and candid. I love capturing those emotional, happy, and joyful moments that unfold when no one is looking. Since 2014, I have photographed over 200+ beautiful weddings, and I can't wait to photograph yours.

My videography company has worked with Zoe several times over the past few years and each and every time is an absolute pleasure. Obviously, Zoe's work speaks for itself; it's beautiful and touching and some of the best we've seen. But the real treat that you may not anticipate is the working relationship with Zoe. She's extremely detailed but laid-back and accomodating. We've never had any scheduling issues when working together and if we did, I have no doubt that it would be resolved immediately. She's always been very cordial to our team, as well as other vendors, and will provide you an extremely smooth wedding day with no stress and plenty of smiles. We can't wait to work with her again and I know you'll have the same feeling if you make the wonderful choice to trust her with your most important memories. You will not regret it!
