Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Riverside, MO

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
Besides saying yes to my husband, Caitlyn was the best decision I made for our wedding. I truly have no complaints - Caitlyn is easy to work with and exudes joy. From the start, communication was prompt and friendly - I clearly had no idea what I was doing, and Caitlyn helped me figure out exactly what I wanted our big day to look like. Her prices were extremely reasonable, especially for the quality of product we got. Our engagement photos, wedding photos, and reception photos are all high-quality, while also capturing real moments of joy / not looking overly "posed", which was a big concern of mine as someone who is very awkward in front of a camera. Our wedding was very small, so part of me was nervous about having a photographer there - however, Caitlyn's personality and kindness put everyone at ease, she fit right in! I cannot recommend Caitlyn enough - she will provide incredible documentation of your event(s)!

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 Nicole Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, they were extremely responsive and attentive, always getting back to us quickly and addressing any questions or concerns we had. Their photography style is truly unique and creative, capturing beautiful, one-of-a-kind shots that we'll cherish forever. On the day of the wedding, Stevie's calm and easygoing presence was so appreciated - they helped keep us relaxed and focused on enjoying the moment, all while discreetly capturing all the special memories. We are thrilled with the final photos and feel that Stevie Nicole Photography provided incredible value and quality for the investment. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Riverside, MO

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.

I commit to a limited number of Weddings per year to ensure that your day remains a priority. Photography is all about connection and your photographer will be one of the biggest and longest-lasting connections you’ll share with any of your wedding vendors. I strive to create beautiful portraits, but also a lasting relationship with my couples. When you book with us, you are not just a client, you become part of the JYP family! I am honored to have the opportunity to laugh…to cry…to share your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
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 photograph weddings the way I see the world — cinematically, with a focus on atmosphere, emotion, and the small moments that reveal who you are. Based in NYC and Atlanta, my approach is calm and intentional, blending natural interactions with a refined, editorial eye.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! 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. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.
