Bulger Creative Co.

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Independence, MO

I'm down to earth, ready to invest, and ready to capture those important moments. My passions are the celebrations that are truly a representation of the couple I want to make art with you. I photograph every type of celebration no matter what size. I feel our style and method are suited for those who go against the grain and for those who desire authentic storytelling

Bulger Creative Co. provided much more than we expected for our wedding day. They were able to capture the raw moments that I will be able to look back at with my kids one day. They genuinely made my day stress free, they needed no direction and seamlessly adapted when plans changed. I was blown away when I received our wedding album. We received so many more photos than we expected and saw moments that we missed at our own wedding. They also created unique and creative styled photos that we requested, which turned out stunning. They became friends of ours by the end of our wedding day because of how personable they were. I would recommend them to anyone who wants beautiful and raw moments captured at their wedding.

Yvette Saddler Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Independence, MO

I love weddings! I love how one single event can be done is so many unique ways to fit each couple and their story. My favorite things to capture during the day are the little details you incorporate to make the day truly yours. My approach is to capture emotion and as much candid interaction and love as possible on your big day while incorporating romantic and fun poses in between.

Yvette arrived early at the location without being asked to scope out spots for cute pictures, she was very kind, fun, and easy to work with. She did not even get the opportunity to meet us before the event, but she just jumped right in and started shooting. We have not seen all the photos yet but the sneak peaks we have gotten were gorgeous, and I’m sure the others will be the same.

Matthew Mcneal Photo

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Independence, MO

Welcome! I'm Matthew! I'm a lifestyle photographer specializing in wedding photography and family photography. In life, there are planned moments, unplanned moments, tears, laughter, excitement, and surprise. Photography should capture the essence of those moments. It’s my pleasure to take part in the lives of my clients and to make these moments into timeless, tangible treasures.

Matt is so talented and amazing to work with. He's become our family photographer, capturing our pivotal life moments. We first met Matt when he photographed my husband's proposal. Over the years, he's captured such joy during our engagement photoshoot, our wedding day, maternity shoots, and our son's first birthday. He even helped us capture treasured family photos with our daughter after she was stillborn. They're one of the few mementos we have of her. Matt truly gave us a gift in providing those memories with the photoshoot. He is a very talented photographer who's always open to trying out poses I see on Pinterest, but he's also phenomenal at capturing truly beautiful candid moments. He always brings such positive energy to our shoots and shares in our excitement during the shoot itself and the planning process. On top of being incredibly talented and kind, he's very flexible, great at communicating, and gets the end product back to us really quickly. With Matt as your photographer, you'll not only wind up with beautiful photos, but you'll also end up with memories to last a lifetime from the shoot itself. I know we have!

In a nutshell - I am your giddy third wheel! I’ll travel anywhere for a great love story, I believe photography should be FUN, and that it should feel like an adventure because really, it’s just us, going on a little adventure together! This is also a no pressure situation! You don’t have to know “how to pose” — this isn’t about posing at all! This is 100% about us 3 out and about together, having fun, laughing a ton, and me giving you guys prompts and direction all in the effort of eliciting a natural reaction!

I can't recommend Elizabeth Ladean Photography enough!! I've had the opportunity to work together personally and professionally many times over the years. She truly is the best in the business!! She is extremely talented as a photographer and has a knack for making you feel comfortable and at ease. She is responsive, organized, and proactive. I've worked with many wedding professionals; she has always stood out in the way she runs her business! When you work with Elizabeth you'll get gorgeous, timeless photos but also a memorable experience!! Highly recommend!!!

Aaron Datu Films

  • Videographer
  • Serves Independence, MO

I've always loved the creative aspect of visual storytelling, especially for weddings. I look at weddings through the perspective that whether you're having 10 people or 200 people there, it's a celebration! You have the people you care the most about there to be with you on YOUR day! I'm there to cement those interactions, document your story, and capture the truest essence of love to pass down for generations to come.

Aaron is not just a great person but he’s also a fierce creative mastermind. He’s always down to listen to new ideas and made our day special just for us! We enjoyed Aaron’s fun and casual personality. It felt like we’d been friends for years! He’s also one of the best communicators I’ve ever worked with!

Moontage Films

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Serves Independence, MO

It was pretty funny because, when I was in film school, I did not know anything about wedding videos! After I graduated from the Academy of Art University in 2012, I received some wedding companies looking for videographers & editors in San Francisco. During that time, I crazily learning and filming weddings every weekend in the Bay Area and Napa Valley wine country. By doing almost 50 weddings per year, it brought me so much experience for my future style built-up. In 2015, I started my own business as Moontage Films!

I cannot recommend Moontage Films enough!! From the moment I met Steve I knew that we would hire him for our wedding videography. Every time I told any vendor who was doing our videography I described Steve as the nicest person you will ever meet. He is so kind and I truly think that comes across in his videos. He is extremely talented and he was so wonderful to work with on our wedding day. He worked with my photographer throughout the day and they made the it so much fun for the entire wedding party. Again, I can't say enough good things about Moontage Films. If you are looking for a wedding videographer, look no further!!

I talk in movie/show quotes - be prepared for A LOT of The Office, New Girl, and Schitt's Creek references!
