The
WEDDING
DAY
Not a photoshoot. Your day, as it happened.
Kansas City ✶ Wedding Photographer ✶
Most of the day, I’m quietly photographing what’s really happening. When it’s time for portraits, I step in, keep it short, and tell you exactly where to stand. You’ll look like yourselves, just in really good light.
Full wedding days start at $4,000 for eight hours. Smaller days and elopements are $500 an hour, with no minimum.
Your skin looks like your skin. The bridesmaids’ dresses stay the color you picked, and the greens look like June.
Clean editing that holds up. In ten years they’ll still look like your wedding, not like whatever filter was trending.
ON THE DAY
The less I manage, the more I see. So most of the day I’m off to the side, watching for the good stuff: your dad seeing you for the first time, the toast that goes sideways, the friend who cries first.
When you need me, I’m right there. I’ll run family photos fast, keep portraits short, and work with your planner so the timeline stays on track. My priority is always you two.

She was great at giving us prompts that created the natural reaction she wanted for a shot, but got us out of our heads about being on camera.

Kind words
★★★★★
She put so much care and detail into the lighting and made sure we got all the photos we had requested (even the ones we totally forgot about!).

★★★★★
She helped us work out a timeline based on moments of the day to take photos around, and was kind and respectful with a gentle reminder when it was time to move onto the next step.

How much does a wedding photographer cost in Kansas City?
With me, it’s $500 an hour. Most full wedding days land between $4,000 and $8,000, and a small day can be as little as $500. The quote builder gives you your exact number in about two minutes.
Do you photograph elopements and small weddings?
Yes. You book by the hour at $500 with no minimum, so a courthouse ceremony and a few portraits can be a single hour.
How many hours of coverage do we need?
Most full weddings need about eight. If you’re getting ready, getting married and celebrating in different places, or you want a send-off, plan on at least eight. The quote builder asks about your day and suggests the right number.
Will you pose us?
A little. Most of the day I’m photographing what happens. For portraits, I’ll put you in good light, give you a starting point, and give you something to talk about so you forget I’m there.
