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!

  • Serves Smithville, MO

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.

  • Serves Smithville, 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!!!

Working with Kalena was an incredible experience from start to finish. She photographed both our engagement session and our wedding day, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From our very first meeting, she was professional, knowledgeable, and instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She is also incredibly sweet and a joy to be around. Kalena has an amazing eye—she knew exactly how to frame each shot and beautifully captured the emotions and details of our day. Kalena also made our wedding day flow so smoothly. From the moment she arrived at our venue, she worked quickly and efficiently, keeping everything on schedule and even giving us some extra downtime before the ceremony. Without her, there is no doubt in our minds that things would have been much more hectic. We’re incredibly grateful for the memories Kalena has preserved for us, and we are beyond impressed with her work. We can’t recommend her highly enough!

Hi, I’m Destiny, and photography is more than just a job—it’s a way of preserving the moments that matter most. Your wedding day is one of the most meaningful chapters of your life, and my goal is to capture it in a way that feels natural, timeless, and uniquely yours. I believe in the magic of real emotion—the joyful tears, the unplanned laughter, and the quiet in-between moments. If you’re looking for a photographer who feels more like a friend than someone behind the camera, I’d be honored to tell your love story through my lens.

Hands down my favorite photographer I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She made us feel so comfortable and confident from start to finish. Her energy is contagious, her direction is effortless, and somehow she brings out your best self without you even realizing it. You’ll leave the session smiling bigger than when you showed up she’s just that good.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Madison because she was an Alumni from same school, UCF, as me. We booked her to do an engagement shoot (an hour outside of Orlando) and our photos turned out absolutely amazing. From that one interaction with her, it really felt like we knew her our whole lives. She is super nice, personable, and made us feel very comfortable right away. She also had so much knowledge about the area, and any questions that we had regarding the shoot. She planned and timed everything out so that we could get photos at one location, and then sunset photos by the beach 30 min away. And then when we were looking for photographers for our wedding (in Philadelphia), it was a no-brainer that we wanted to book her again to capture our big day. She came halfway up the coast and played a large role in making our day perfect. We planned the photography from 1000 miles away, and she was really communicative and helpful about the picture planning, and also just wedding planning in general. We ran into a timing issue with how the day was going to work out before the ceremony, and she helped us navigate that, and she worked to keep us on track throughout the night for the different photos that we wanted. She knew what to do & what not to do in the Church. She also worked well alongside our videographer. Ultimately, we are very happy with our experience with Madison, and the wedding photos she took turned out absolutely amazing.

I’m a photographer at heart! Whilst being a nanny for over 10 years, photography always took a back seat until I got married myself in 2024 and realized I wanted everyone to be able to afford beautiful photos to be able to remember their special day for years to come!

Chelsey and the team at Captured By Chels were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our very first conversation, Chelsey demonstrated a patient, communicative, and listening approach that immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the photography process and her reliability was unparalleled. Chelsey's artistic eye, creativity, and kind perspective shone through in the high-quality, beautifully composed photos she captured. She was discreet yet always present at the right moments, documenting not only the big highlights but also the little emotional and intimate details we may have missed on our own. Chelsey made us feel comfortable right from the start, and her exceptional organization ensured our wedding day unfolded seamlessly. We are thrilled with the stunning photos that now allow us to relive our special day, and we cannot recommend Captured By Chels highly enough.
