Bayley was an absolute pleasure to work with for our engagement shoot and we can’t wait to work with her on our wedding coming up in October. Her communication was easy and quick, putting us at ease throughout the entire process of scheduling. The quality of her work was exceptional, with beautiful editing that perfectly captured the magic of our love. She was incredibly helpful in guiding us through poses and getting the photos back to us quickly so we could enjoy them!

  • Serves Independence, MO

A Little About Me I’ve spent the past 12 years working in digital photography, film, and television. I’ve traveled across the country contributing to everything from commercial photoshoots and TV shows to full-length feature films. While my primary focus for the past seven years has been in television and film, I’ve never set down my still camera. Throughout that time, I’ve continued to pursue my passion for portrait and automotive photography. Now, I’m excited to return to the medium that first inspired me: wedding photography.

From the moment we first spoke with Chris at No Limit Grip LLC, we knew we were in good hands. His communication style was easy to understand and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The quality of his work is simply unmatched - it truly doesn't get any better than this. Chris was there to capture all the special moments that will last a lifetime, taking special care in our family photos and fun aspects of our wedding. He was also incredibly timely and affordable, and the pictures he took are priceless. We can't wait to use him for our future occasions as a couple and family, as he went above and beyond for us. Book Chris, you won't regret it!

I'm a traveling wedding & elopement photographer based in Kansas City. My roots are in the midwest but I'm often on the move. I strive to photograph those who are madly in love. The non-traditional. Adventurous. Simple at heart. Your story is so worth capturing and being told. I love what I do because I get to document connection and creation all over the world. Small moments, big ones, they all matter to me. I get to be there for all of it and I think that's pretty dang cool. My mission is to make timeless, emotion-filled, storytelling images all for glory of Jesus.

Deanna Johnson Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Independence, MO

Taking the photo is only a fraction of my job. I’m the cheerleader, usher, keeper of the timeline, and stealth ninja anticipating what’s coming next. After 10 years and more than 200 weddings, I’ve learned a trick or two about how to navigate the unique challenges of a wedding day. I’ve learned that planning for the inevitable means getting to enjoy the unexpected. I’ve learned when to take center stage and be the conductor to ensure that your must-have shots are checked off that list. But, I’ve also learned when to be still and wait for the relationships surrounding you to show their beautiful touches of joy that long to be captured.

Deanna did a phenomenal job photographing our wedding at Melrose Abbey in October 2025. Photos were very important to us and every time we look back through them, we get to relive the day and the beautiful moments. The engagement photo session was a great time to learn what angles and poses we liked about each other, gave feedback to Deanna of what we liked, and the results from the wedding allowed us to have too many good photos to choose from. I also opted to participate in a bridal portrait session which is very common in the South (I'm from Texas). I had so much fun with Deanna at the bridal portrait session taking all the photos I wanted in my dress ahead of the big day. I was able to coordinate trial hair and make-up, mock-up bouquet, and trial run dress and accessories. The bridal portraits enabled me to relax and enjoy all the bridal party and family portraits on actual wedding day. Deanna has such a beautiful vision for photography with both her regular camera and film, she has such a positive attitude and does a great job of coaching but allowing your personality to shine through. We also opted for a 2nd photographer to capture all the moments and Deanna did a great job selecting Chris who took some amazing photos and was fun to work with too. Deanna helped us plan out the wedding day schedule and shared some of her favorite outside photo spots to take the bridal party. She was super responsive and was even scoping out the spots as the day came closer to let us know that the photo spot we had selected was partitioned off for a concert and we were able to pick a new spot about a week ahead of the wedding. She did a great job communicating with our other vendors and we were incredibly thrilled with all keepsake photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Thank you for so beautifully capturing Nick and I on our very special day! We would highly recommend Deanna for any photo occasion!

Hi, I’m Morgan, but you can call me Morgs! I’m a Kansas City based wedding and lifestyle photographer with a love for visual storytelling. My background in psychology sparked my passion for photography, reminding me how tangible things like photos help us relive how moments felt. My husband and I eloped ourselves, so we have a soft spot for smaller, intentional celebrations. He’s also my second shooter, bringing his own creative eye to every story we tell together. My work is nostalgic and intentional, capturing connection over perfection and preserving memories you’ll feel forever.

Morgs and Sam were amazing. They had such great energy and felt like part of the family, making the photo process more fun than awkward. The quality of their work is top-notch and we're thrilled with how the photos turned out. We couldn't recommend MorgsBehindTheCamera more highly for any couple looking for wedding photographers who will make you feel comfortable in your own skin!

Hi, I’m Erin and I love telling stories. I'm Midwest based, Kansas City to be specific, but I'm a Michigan girl at heart and love to travel! My favorite way to share the world through my eyes is from behind a camera lens. Your story is beautiful, and worth sharing.

Erin was wonderful from the first chat we had with her. She made everything from our engagement session to check ins before the big day, to all aspects of wedding photography have such ease. We feel so fortunate to have found her, especially as a queer couple and the industry being filled with "bride and groom" talk, she didn't skip a beat at making us both feel special as the brides.

I love photography because every shoot and every couple, family, or person is different. I want to make the process of getting photos taken as easy and fun as possible. I love that I am able to honor God with the skills, abilities and gifts He's given me to not only make a living, but to empower and encourage others, and to help other businesses and non-profits grow and thrive. I personally thrive on discovering beauty in every person and relationship and capturing that moment in time. I don't care to be trendy. I want to capture YOU as you are RIGHT NOW. Let's connect! Feel free to inquire off Zola on my website's inquiry form!

When I began searching for a wedding photographer, I made a giant spreadsheet of local photogs. (I really wanted to find the perfect person to capture our day!!!) I compared their photography style, experience, and price. I wanted someone who took vibrant documentary photos that were timeless and not trendy. Someone who was a joy to be around and had the experience to back it up — someone who actually studied photography at school was my dream, not someone who picked up a camera as a hobby. And someone who included a second photog in the price package in my budget. Aubrey checked every box and then some. Hands down the best decision to hire her. Bonus points: She does pet photography, too!!!

Hey Tay

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Independence, MO

When I was looking for my own wedding vendors, it was important to me that I find people with similar world views that fit into my budget and were behind how laid back my vision for my wedding was. I am here to advocate for you. What that really looks like is you telling me you want something and me saying "treat yo self". I want to help you capture memories of your day the exact way you want it to share with your family, your friends, & yourself for years and years to come. So, if you're down to hop on that dance floor with me and feel how effortless it is to be 100% yourself in front of the camera, hit me up. I'm excited to meet you.

For our photography we used Hey Tay Photography. I have struggled with writing these vendor reviews because I cannot even begin to describe just how incredible my experience with Tay has been. I knew from the jump that I wanted Tay to do our photos for the wedding. For starters I have been in front of Tay’s camera multiple times and am continuously in amazement with the work that she produces, the way she makes you feel, and the energy that she brings every single time. She did our engagement session out in downtown Kansas City and watching her creative wheels turn as she found the perfect places and perfect views was so much fun! She then came and did our wedding. Her eye for details is unmatched and it shows in her stunning work. We received our sneak peaks within days of the wedding, and received our entire album less than two months after the wedding. Tay is phenomenal and her work is even better! She is incredibly professional and organized and rides hard for her clients. At one point something was bothering me on our wedding day and I mentioned it and the first thing she said was, “do you want me to take care of it”. She is enthusiastic, sincere, encouraging, and arguably one of the best wedding photographers in Kansas City. I truly could sing her praises all day, but will spare you. HIRE HER!

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.
