Stevie Nicole Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,550
  • Serves Shawnee, KS

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.

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Shawnee, 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.

I cannot recommend Caitlyn enough!! I've been so lucky to work with Caitlyn in the past through my sister's wedding (so I know how amazing she is and how fantastic her picture are), but working with her from the bride's POV was just as amazing! Everything from our initial inquiry with her, to our wedding day was seamless. Caitlyn had great communication with us; responding to emails within 1-2 days, checking in with us on the wedding planning journey, offering support and advice in all areas of wedding planning, even emailing to give updates on the wedding gallery editing process. My husband and I are just naturally very awkward people and had never taken professional photos together before. We were worried that our awkwardness would come out in the pictures/we wouldn't know what to do other than just stand and smile. What we loved about working with Caitlyn, was that she was just there as a fly on the wall capturing pictures of us as we were sitting and talking and laughing together. She would give us pose ideas and ideas to make each other laugh, and overall made us feel very comfortable in a situation where we would not typically feel comfortable. On our wedding day, there was probably 5-6 inches of snow on the ground; Caitlyn brought her snow boots with her to our wedding day and marched through the snow with us to give us the most amazing wedding photos! The snow pictures are by far my favorite pictures from our day. Caitlyn delivered a MASSIVE wedding gallery of so many fantastic photos! I feel as if she captured all the different moments of our wedding (e.g., getting ready, vows, first looks, ceremony, reception, etc) perfectly. I love all the photos of our guests from the ceremony and reception; with the day being so busy it's hard to talk to every single guest, but having these pictures is special because we know they were there and excited to celebrate with us. One thing I recommend to future brides booking with Caitlyn, is to schedule a meeting with her to sit down and make sure your shot list has all the necessary combinations. Our family photos are some of our favorite pictures, but when my husband and I were putting together our shot list, we forgot some combinations of people that we felt strongly about getting more 1:1 pictures with. A meeting with Caitlyn to discuss your shot list, will help to eliminate any opportunity for missed combinations. Overall, Caitlyn did a fantastic job capturing my husband and I from our engagement pictures, to the wedding day, but also capturing our relationships with family and friends through wedding day pictures (e.g., getting ready, reception, etc.). We plan to use Caitlyn to capture all of our best life adventures from here on out! :)

Natalie Nichole Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Shawnee, KS

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
Natalie is AMAZING! She shot our wedding back in 2021, and we still look back through our photos in absolute awe. They're timeless, beautiful, and a true reflection of our wedding day. If you want your wedding to be an 8-hour photo shoot, I don't know if Natalie is the right photographer for you. But if you want to *feel* your images and be able to actually relive your wedding day through photos, you would be remiss not to hire her. She made our wedding day (and engagement shoot) SO much fun, helped us pose when we got awkward, and worked with us when we decided to push back our date.

  • Serves Shawnee, KS

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.

George Street was very communicative and professional throughout our wedding planning process and the day of. We chose to have 8 hr photo and video with a 6 hr assistant photographer. between the quality of the photos and video and the amount of time we had, we felt that it was amazing quality and such a beautiful keepsake to remember our special day by. We were also permitted to switch out an album the pictures made by George Street with an engagement photo shoot with photographer which we really appreciate and enjoy doing. The photographer, Ausrine, and videographer, Eric, always gave us clear instructions and what to do and how to pose.

Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We definitely recommend OLAS. Our favorite photos from the day were our fun wedding party pictures! Everything was explained clearly during the planning process and we wouldn’t change anything from the day. We received our wedding day photo gallery promptly at the time we were expected and it was a good surprise on our honeymoon.

Each of our wedding photographers, even at the Apprentice level, are subject to a thorough evaluation process before being invited to join the Bellagala team, and we ensure they have a solid record of client service and a strong creative portfolio. We promise you will love their work.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Andrew Parfenov through Bellagala as our wedding photographer and couldn't be happier. We were looking for a photographer with a strong visual voice and a good mix of non-traditional/dramatic portraits and photojournalistic (candid) photos in their portfolio. Andrew brought the drama, the joy, and so much more! From the get-go, Andrew was a delight to work with - he shot our engagement photos and helped us find and arrange a venue for them - and immediately set us at ease. He goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot, the perfect lighting, the perfect pose. On our wedding day, Andrew took the lead on finding locations for photos around our venue, posing us/our bridal party/our family, and finding moments for candid shots at the reception. Multiple family members have reached out after the wedding to tell us how much they enjoyed Andrew's approach and how at ease they felt with him. If you're considering Andrew for your special occasion, book him - we can't recommend him highly enough!

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough.

My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some.

Where do I even start? Jessica is probably hands down the easiest person we worked with on our wedding. We unintentionally scheduled our wedding on Mother's day and this was obviously an important day for her, but she worked with us anyway. She worked through our foolishness (my husband and I are incapable of being serious in most situations), and often would join in on the fun. She also provided a schedule of events which was incredibly helpful for me as I had no idea what I was doing. Jessica is an amazing photographer, but that is not really the best quality here. She is an amazing person all around and I highly recommend her!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
People often debate what's most important for a wedding: is it the venue, the food, the flowers... ?  It's the memories, and putting them in the hands of artists who can show you the heart and soul and feel of every moment - moments you can't plan for, you can never adequately take in, and many you would simply miss. Jarrod and Taylor are certainly technically gifted photographers and videographers, but more importantly they are artists whose true love is capturing yours.  The name says it all: The Narrative. My bride Ali and I will be forever grateful that we found and convinced them to tell our story.  I could imagine a thousands different weddings, but none without them by our side. Thank you, Jarrod and Taylor, you beautiful humans, for your truly awesome and unbelievable care, vision, and talents.  You've given us more than we could have ever imagined or even hoped for, through your perfect lens. With love and a lifetime of gratitude, Mike & Ali
