Kendal Banks Photography

Hi, and congratulations on your engagement! I’m Kendal, a Kansas City wedding and elopement photographer capturing love stories across the Midwest (and beyond!). I work with couples who do things their own way—the cool, the quirky, the beautifully real. Whether you’re planning a backyard wedding, a mountain top elopement, or a full on dance-floor blowout, I’ll blend artful portraits with honest storytelling to capture your day exactly as it feels.

Kendal beautiful captured our vision for engagement and wedding photos. She provided helpful tips for getting everything to run smoothly and captured a lot of special, fleeting moments. She’s great with people (for instance, did a great job putting our flower girls at ease). She planned out all the shots very well, while also improvising some really cool photos as the opportunities arose! We had a somewhat idiosyncratic wedding, and she was so down for it all! We’ll treasure these photos. If you’re looking for someone who is both wonderfully personable and highly professional, look no further. Highly, wholeheartedly recommended!

Noire Studios

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,675
  • Serves Paola, KS

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!

Noire Studios was the best vendor on my wedding day! Noelle and her team made me feel at ease the moment they walked in. The day went beautifully and the images are stunning! We could not have asked for a better photographer!

I’m a wedding photographer with a calm, relaxed approach, focused on capturing how your wedding day feels, not just how it looks. It should feel personal, supportive, and stress-free from the first conversation. Every wedding I photograph is fully customized from coverage hours to collections, allowing couples at a variety of budgets to feel supported without sacrificing care, quality, or intention. Planning an intimate or a full wedding, my goal is to create timeless images while helping you feel at ease & truly seen. If connection & meaningful matters to you, Lets chat. Memories are preserved for years to come.

Keri was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the very beginning, Keri's communication was fast and reliable - she was available 24/7 if we needed anything. Her work is truly top-notch, and no matter your budget, she will maintain the highest standards. Keri went above and beyond on our wedding day, even fixing my wife's dress when a button broke and keeping the flowers fresh by taking them inside to water until the ceremony started. She's not just a photographer, but someone who solves problems before you even realize they exist. I first met Keri at another wedding she was shooting in Italy, and we hit it off so well that she gave us a mini session, which led to us hiring her for both our intimate elopement and our big wedding a few months later. Keri customized our wedding package just for us, and her work and communication have been amazing throughout. We've ordered a wedding album from her that we cherish, and we cry every time we look through it. Keri is truly worth talking to - her talent and dedication are unmatched.

I did a lot of research to find a wedding photographer. I do a lot of research for everything, but I felt like it was especially important because if I’m paying so much for a wedding, I want all of the details chronicled beautifully so those memories can last forever. It was really important for me that the pictures looked super natural and not overly editted as if I was right back in the moment when I looked at them. Ivory Grove let me look at several of their photographers’ portfolios since I was worried they might have different styles. They were all very similar and beautiful, but I did like Erika’s the most and they set me up with her. Erika took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and she did a PHENOMENAL job. She got every angle of every moment, and a lot of my guests mentioned how impressed they were that she was getting on the ground for some shots, setting up lighting, and orchestrating everyone to make sure I got all the photos I requested. Ivory Grove finished editing the photos she took in only 2 weeks, and the album they sent has sooo many photos in it. I should have known because I got a lot of engagement photos back as well, but I was just blown away by the amount of gorgeous photos they gave me. It’s also so easy for me to download them onto my phone or computer. The investment was well worth it, but also they were more affordable than a lot of other photographers I’d looked into! Anyway, I can’t say enough good things about Erika, Lindsey, and anyone else who reached out throughout the planning process. Thank you Ivory Grove team!

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Paola, KS

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
Caitlyn was so easy to work with and so organized. The portal she uses to share bills and information is very easy to use. She was flexible with scheduling and offered great guidance for day of scheduling. She is a great communicator and responds quickly. The day of she made the whole experience effortless honestly! Our photos turned out amazing, we loved the candid and more posed photos. It was great to have a good mix of each! Every wedding day has issues, our venue didn’t put out our chairs and Caitlyn totally rolled with it and took pictures while people waited for chairs to arrive. She’s also just a genuine person and truly cares about the people she’s working with. Would recommend her 100%.

Hi there! Nice to meet you! I’m a photographer, full-time executive assistant at a non-profit organization, graphic designer, true crime weirdo, and karaoke expert in Kansas City, Missouri. Most importantly, I’m a mom to a sweet baby boy and two pups, and I’m in love with my best friend. Twelve years ago, in a tiny Kansas town called Yoder, I started my little photo business. Since then, I’ve been so lucky to be able to create many life-long friendships with tons of incredible people throughout the Midwest and beyond.

Stevie was so fun to work with and put us at ease during our engagement and wedding photos. She is super communicative and got our photos to us quickly. Our vision really came to life and everything we described to her as our dream aesthetic was captured in our photos.

Weddings are my passion, it's not the decor, or the outfits, it's the pure LOVE between my couples. It is such an honor to be a part of my couples biggest day of their lives and the beginning of their marriage. Getting to use my talent to document their connection and all the amazing moments during the day is really a dream come true.

Awarded Best of Zola
From browsing Natalie’s social media & website, to our initial (and only) video call, we knew she was going to be a perfect match for us. She made us feel comfortable all day long, like we’d known her for years. No one would ever think we met for the first time on our wedding day. She caught all the special moments and details. She was on top of everything and used her creativity to find the best spots for the shots. She was extremely professional, organized, & understood (and even excelled in) her task of rallying our 18 person wedding party. And the icing on top of her amazing personality and skills, was she got us our sneak peek gallery in less than 24 hours. It was such a treat to have those to share as we reflected on our day. We just have looked at them hundreds of times. We’ve now received our full album in under a month. We are over the moon happy with her services and images she provided. She was a dream to work with and we highly recommend her!!

I love capturing people in their very human moments. Images that really resonate with me are those which capture the essence of a person, a relationship, or just raw emotion. I search to photograph moments in which people reveal who they really are. This drive affects everything I do. Weddings are a breeding ground for these types of moments and emotions. Honest love, friendship, and joy. This is why I have chosen to specialize in this type of photography, because it speaks to me in a way than nothing else does.

We have precious photos to treasure forever! 10/10 recommend Carlie Nicole Photography!

There is nothing I love more than capturing special moments between loved ones - whether it be bride and groom or parents and their children. I'm best at the in-between moments that you weren't expecting. The picture catches you off guard and makes you say "wow, I didn't know you got that". I'm always looking for real emotions and interactions.

Shalis and team went above and beyond. They were able to bring more life into the wedding with the creative ways of taking photographs and video! We such had a blast, thank you! Will be giving out your information to friends for sure!

Hi there, I am Shana Wooley and the one smiling back at you from behind the camera, helping you plan “all the things”, and standing by you on your big day. I am a native of the south (I grew up in Alabama) and I moved to Kansas City in 2012. I studied photography at Austin Peay University and started W the Studio in 2009 (which is the same year that my “tinybff” Luke was born). I met my very amazing husband, Josh, online (so no judgement here if you’ve found the love of your life on the www).

Working with W The Studio for our wedding photography was an absolute pleasure. Shana and her team were incredibly responsive, friendly, and detail-oriented throughout the entire process. They listened closely to our vision and delivered creative, beautiful portraits that perfectly captured the special moments of our day - even when we had to adapt plans due to unexpected rain. The turnaround time for getting our photos back was impressively fast, and we're thrilled with the end result. We highly recommend W The Studio to any couple looking for talented, professional wedding photographers who will go above and beyond to make your day perfect.

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!

My name is Elle, pronounced like Ellie. You can call me L.E. I live in Kansas City. I'm a personal trainer and travel enthusiast. I've been a photographer for 5 years now, 2 of those as a business. I think that a photo is a tiny piece of magic or some weird wizardry. It taps into a moment of your life and allows you to keep it forever. How freakin cool. I'm a total nerd for photos. My values are: I think a photo is the best thing you could ever have. It’s important to me to capture people as they are. A photo is something you can feel over and over again.
