$500 an hour
WEDDINGS PORTRAITS ELOPEMENTS PROPOSALS MICROWEDDINGS WEDDINGS PORTRAITS ELOPEMENTS
Coverage by the hour at $500, booked for exactly the time you need. It’s made for the smaller days, like a courthouse ceremony or an intimate backyard wedding that doesn’t call for a full day.
Eight hours at the hourly rate is $4,000, and that’s where Signature starts, with an engagement session included so we’re comfortable together before the wedding. Luxe is 12 hours with a second photographer for 10 of them.
Couple’s portraits for whatever the occasion is, an engagement, an anniversary, a proposal, or simply because. $400 for thirty minutes, or $500 for an hour and two locations.

My favorite weddings have a palette, a texture, something the two of you actually cared about. Look through a few and see if it clicks.
Hey, I'm Erin
I take 12 to 20 weddings a year, enough to stay sharp and few enough that yours gets my full attention.
I was terrified of weddings when I started. Then I shot one, felt the rush of running the day from behind the scenes, and it stuck. I care about accurate color, editing that holds up, and using the room you chose.
My day job pays the bills, so this stays a choice, and I show up excited every time.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO REMEMBER the camera. I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER the whole day.
A hundred-plus weddings in, that’s still the whole job.
Want to know who’s behind the lens?
01
Pick your hours and add what you need. If the number feels right, you’re one click from saying hello.
02
A short video call to make sure we click. It’s faster than a dozen emails and a lot more fun, I promise.
03
Once you’re happy with the proposal, a signed contract and a 30% retainer make it official. Then the fun part starts: your portal, your questionnaire, and planning the actual day together.

“She handled our big family very well and was a real high point of our big day!”
We loved working with Erin for both our engagement photos and our wedding day! Not only did the pictures turn out beautifully but she made us feel so comfortable.

As a wedding planner, I appreciated her professionalism, calm demeanor… I highly recommend Erin and would love to collaborate with her again!

How much does a Kansas City wedding photographer cost?
Coverage is $500 an hour, booked for exactly the time you need. A full eight hour day is $4,000 and includes an engagement session. The quote builder shows your exact total in about two minutes.
How far in advance should we book?
Most couples book 9 to 15 months out, especially for May through October Saturdays. January to March dates open up more easily and come with a discount.
Do you travel?
Yes. Anywhere within 90 miles of Kansas City has no travel fee, and I love a destination wedding. Ask me about yours.
When do we get our photos?
A sneak peek within 48 hours, and your full, hand-edited gallery in four to six weeks.
Can we customize our coverage?
Absolutely. Book exactly the hours you need, choose a collection, or add a second photographer (for days of 4 hours or more) or rehearsal dinner coverage. The quote builder shows your total as you go.
Something Good
If you’ve made it this far, let’s talk. I’m booking 2026 and 2027 dates now, and I’d love for yours to be one of them.
YOUR PRICE
Tell me about your day, and I'll show you exactly how much coverage you need and what it costs. No guessing, no surprises.
STEP 1
Let's start with your date and size. This sets your pricing structure.
Just a ballpark—this helps me understand your day.
STEP 2
How many locations will your day involve? This affects coverage time.
STEP 3
What would you like captured before you walk down the aisle?
This single decision shapes your entire timeline.
These special reveals can happen regardless of whether you do a couple first look.
STEP 4
Select which formal portraits you'd like.
Since you're doing a first look, we'll capture these before your ceremony so you can enjoy cocktail hour.
Immediate family = parents, siblings, grandparents. Extended = aunts, uncles, cousins.
Since you're doing a traditional reveal, formal portraits happen immediately after your ceremony during cocktail hour.
Let me know who's in the photos beyond just the two of you.
Immediate family = parents, siblings, grandparents. Extended = aunts, uncles, cousins.
STEP 5
Tell me about your ceremony.
Have a unique ceremony style? Reach out and we can adjust.
STEP 6
What reception moments matter most to you?
How long is your cocktail hour scheduled to be? This determines coverage between your ceremony and reception.
Check any events you want covered. Each adds 15 minutes.
STEP 7
These are completely optional. Everything in your coverage is already built from your timeline above.
Matches your coverage hours.
Kansas City and anywhere within 90 miles is included at no extra charge.
Add-on pricing is separate from any seasonal discounts. Photography hours get the discount. Add-ons don't.
YOUR QUOTE
Estimated total before retainer split
