Photog Lexie 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Wardell, MO

Lexie Photog Story-driven wedding photography with an editorial twist. Lexie Photog is all about capturing real moments—with a touch of artistry. Blending a documentary approach with creative prompts and modern posing, Lexie tells wedding day stories exactly as they unfold—authentic, emotional, and beautifully composed. Based in Missouri and always ready to travel, I know when to step back and let the moment breathe, and when to guide you with prompts that bring out natural connection (and killer portraits). The result? Timeless, cinematic images that feel like you. No awkward poses. No stiff smiles.

From the moment she floated into the room (did she walk? did she levitate? unclear), Lexie brought this calm, sparkly energy that somehow melted all my stress into glitter. She wasn’t just snapping pics—she was summoning memories, catching the most fleeting, beautiful moments like they were fireflies in a jar. She knew exactly when to hang back and catch that candid tear rolling down my grandma’s cheek (I’m crying again just thinking about it), and exactly when to swoop in like a creative goddess to prompt the most iconic portrait of us running through a field like an indie film poster. I didn’t know I could look that cool and that in love at the same time. Her prompts? Genius. Her timing? Impeccable. Her presence? Like being wrapped in a warm blanket of confidence and vibes. We didn’t just get wedding photos. We got art. We got memories that feel alive. We got a new best friend who may or may not be part-magical woodland creature. Hire Lexie. Honestly, you’d be doing yourself a favor. She’s the real deal.

Their communication was clear, helpful, and enthusiastic throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was efficient, stunning, and highly personalized to our style. They sent us multiple photographer options to choose from, and we went with Sabatani, who captured every moment of our special day beautifully. OLAS also helped us create a detailed day-of timeline to ensure everything ran smoothly. We're thrilled with the photos and couldn't have asked for a better photography experience for our wedding.

Where do I even begin with Jessica Yahn Photography? From the very first time we met her, Jessica didn’t just feel like a photographer — she instantly felt like family. She has this warm, genuine personality that puts you completely at ease, and by the end of our engagement session, we already knew we’d made the best decision choosing her to capture our story. When it came to our wedding day, Jessica went above and beyond every single expectation. She didn’t just take photos — she created moments that felt straight out of a dream. Every detail, every emotion, and every bit of love that filled the day somehow came through perfectly in her work. Her creativity, professionalism, and passion are unmatched, and her photos are truly magical. But what meant the most to me was her kindness and care behind the camera. In the middle of all the wedding chaos, when I started to feel sick, Jessica stopped what she was doing to come check on me — not because it was part of her job, but because that’s just who she is. That small act spoke volumes about her heart and the kind of person she is. Jessica didn’t just capture our memories — she became a part of them. She is no longer just our photographer; she is our friend, our family, and someone who will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will forever be grateful for her and the way she turned some of the most important moments of our lives into pure, timeless magic.

Marissa was amazing every step of the way. She helped to narrow down an elopement location base off of our wants. She also came up with a detailed schedule for the whole time spent with her, and options to choose from base off the location we picked! Due to weather, I had a freak out a couple days before the elopement. When I emailed her about my concerns, she responded within 15 minutes reassuring me she was making a back up plan and emailed a new detailed schedule with options within a few hours! And the pictures?! Phenomenal! Everything I could have hoped for!

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, & now Mississippi!! What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I also just got married on August 31st, so I know how it feels to be both a service provider and a customer! My style of photography is more candid with a documentary style approach, but I do love a good editorial moment!

Choosing Angelina as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our big day! From start to finish, she was nothing short of amazing. Her calm and friendly demeanor made us feel completely at ease, even in the most nerve-wracking moments. She has a true gift for making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and it shows in every single photo. What really stood out about Angelina was her incredible ability to capture the essence of our wedding. Every shot felt authentic, natural, and beautifully composed. She didn’t just document the day; she told the story of our love, our family, and all the joy that filled the air. Whether it was a quiet, emotional moment or a fun, candid shot, Angelina was right there, capturing it perfectly without us even realizing. Her attention to detail is second to none, and she has a way of making even the simplest moments feel magical. We were blown away when we received our photos — each one more beautiful than the last. Angelina has an incredible talent, and we are so grateful to have worked with her. If you're looking for someone who will capture your wedding day with elegance, creativity, and heart, we wholeheartedly recommend Angelina!

We had an unforgettable experience with Evan. I don’t have many pictures with my mom, but she made this long-awaited moment perfect.

She was able to capture him laughing and smiling. Made all the poses look natural. When we saw the photos, we were moved to tears. They reflected who we truly are as a family.

If I could give Tony and his team more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. We had a destination wedding in Sedona and took jeeps up a long, rugged trail to get married at the top of a mountain. Tony and his team were nothing short of incredible from start to finish. Not only are they insanely talented at both photo and video, but Tony himself is an experienced off-road driver with his own jeep…and thank goodness for that! He helped guide our entire wedding party through the trail safely, kept everyone laughing, and made the whole adventure an absolute blast. As a photographer myself, I’m very picky about imagery, and Tony exceeded every expectation I had. His eye, his creativity, his attention to detail, and his ability to capture genuine emotion are all unmatched. Our photos are breathtaking, better than anything I ever could have imagined. He’s energetic, knowledgeable, fun to be around, and truly passionate about what he does. Hiring Tony was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

I'm a film & digital photographer based in the Midwest but traveling internationally to capture heartfelt moments and authentic love stories with a cinematic and nostalgic feel. I started out with travel photography but my passion for portraiture and timeless romance led me to specialize in creative, artful weddings, destination weddings, and intimate couples shoots for intentional couples who want something beyond the traditional, cookie cutter photo vibe.

Stacey was a dream to work with! She was quick to respond from the minute we submitted an inquiry to weeks after our elopement. She also scheduled an initial zoom meeting before even signing anything which was very personable and helpful to meet the person you might want to hire! For the day of, we had an intimate elopement with only 3 friends. Stacey made us feel so comfortable and like she had known us for years even though we had just met in person that day! Stacey gave us directions on what to do for the pictures, but not strict posing which made the pictures seem so much more natural, candid, and real. She is a gem of a human and so friendly. After the elopement, Stacey provided us with sneak peeks almost immediately. And when we were delivered the final pictures, we were blown away. Every single picture was PERFECT. We also requested some photos on film, and every single one of those were perfect as well. Could not be happier with choosing Stacey to photograph our day that we’ll remember forever.

I have been doing photography for 5 years. I recently took a break for a couple years to raise my babies. Im ready to get back into the hang of things, but I'm only opening up to one wedding a month. I don't want to overload myself getting back into the grove of things.

Lex was amazing in helping my day go smoothly, I'm so blessed to have her apart of my day

Brittany and the team at Epic Lens Media were incredible to work with for our wedding. Brittany communicates amazingly and was a joy to have by our side on our special day. The quality of their work is truly beautiful and they captured all the important moments. Brittany made my special day better by helping me focus on the bigger picture and less on the small things. She was very easygoing and was one of the reasons I could say the day went amazing. Brittany worked so hard to capture all of my moments - she works extremely hard and is just an overall amazing photographer. We are thrilled with the final photos and highly recommend Epic Lens Media.

If you need a reminder to stop trying to appease your forever disapproving great-aunt Barbara and DO YOU, you've come to the right place. As an elder emo, I know what it's like to feel like you don't quite fit the mold. When I first became a photographer, I felt like I had to put on a different persona to appeal to clients, but after I had two black-dress-wearing brides book me on the same day, I saw an opportunity to connect and serve people I identified closely with, and who I hoped would identify with me and my style. After all, what nonconformist wants a cookie-cutter photographer?

I worked with Heather at a wedding and she was very professional and fun! Her work is absolutely stunning and she is very sweet person. Highly recommend!
