About

I'm Elizabeth! A small town Carolina girl living life in Kansas City, Missouri, and I am a photographer for the joyful, crazy-in-love couple - who love those real and authentic moments that fool everyone into believing a photographer wasn’t even there!

I happily get to document love for a living! I consider myself a storytelling wedding photographer for joyful, life loving couples who are absolutely, crazy-in-love. You can bet your bottom I'll cry when you cry, laugh when you laugh, and take photos of all the things!! You can also count on me being your giddy third wheel!!!

As your photographer I’ll make sure you guys enjoy this whole, photography thing! Know that there’s no expectation here — I just want you guys to be who you are and have fun together! And I’ll be there to witness your love story just as it is — without stiff posing. My entire approach is to create something more than a business transaction with you, be more than your photographer — not just a stranger with a camera that follows you around. I strongly believe in the power of human connection and I make no apologies for it! And through it all, I’m here to give you photos that shout — "we are the greatest love story that ever lived"....Because y’all are.

If you are looking for the best most talented photographer, you have found the right person!

If you are looking to find someone who is incredibly thoughtful, talented, hard-working, and truly someone whose passion can be seen through their craft, look no further, because Elizabeth is truly the best of the best and in my opinion a leader in the industry! When we met is was completely by random, but wow are we beyond blessed that this world brought her love into our life!! I truly mean it when I say that I feel like we could not have planned this wedding, made our timeline, or really accomplished everything we did on our wedding day and in our wedding weekend if it was not for Elizabeth! For our engagement shoot this woman hiked miles up mountains for the right shot, she encourages the best in you and your partner and makes it so easy to take photos and have so much fun, letting you be yourself while also giving you suggestions and nudges if she thinks of something or sees something or even if you just ask!! She is so responsive and understanding and accommodating when putting together shot lists, putting together family photos, bridal party photos, understanding that some people have big families, big bridal parties, small bridal parties, complicated family dynamics, this woman knows it all and does it all so well, it is so impressive watching her work and knowing you can relax because she has it all covered all day. She will make sure to let you know where you have wiggle room, grabbing you when you need to be grabbed, and even if you are running behind, she gets it all in masterfully and really listens to everything you want and does her best to make sure that every little detail you ask for is something that you get on your special day. She is there from start to finish, her leadership, her efficiency, I am not sure there are words enough to truly describe or recommend enough what it means to have someone like Elizabeth as your photographer. She does more than just taking a photo, she captures these genuine memories and moments that when you look back on your photos, it doesn't feel staged, it feels like a hug wrapped in love that will last forever, which is a rare thing to find in a human and in a wedding vendor it just makes every memory from your day that much more special. AND THE PHOTOS!!!!! Good luck choosing even just a few dozen, they all end up looking like an art gallery hall worthy of forever being viewed. You can tell the time and energy and genuine thought and pure love that she pours into every photo, they are really works of art that we just feel lucky enough to be portrayed in, and she makes sure at the end of the day you look back at these photos and they aren't just another item on your checklist, but that they are something that you can truly cherish for all of the years of love to come. She is a true professional and will bless your wedding day should you choose her, I know that we will be using her for years to come in all photoshoots that we need because she becomes your friend, your confidant, and so much more. Forever forever recommending this incredibly talented and dedicated human being!!!!!!!

The Biggest Blessing of a Photographer!!!

Elizabeth is truly the best!!! Not only is she an amazing photographer, but she is also an amazing friend. She made us feel so comfortable and at peace. My husband can get a little camera shy, but he felt comfortable to come out of his shell around her for photos. We loved her desire to get to know us as people and her communication was amazing. Already by seeing a couple photos, I cannot wait to see all of them! She captures images in a way that is so real and special, and I couldn't think of anyone better to entrust our wedding day to!!!

Absolutely AMAZING Photographer

My husband and I got married Nov 2022 and had the BEST experience with Elizabeth and her photography. We had a pretty small wedding, but knew we wanted to splurge a bit on the one thing that would last decades (i.e. photos!). From the first email she sent, to the follow up communication MONTHS after the wedding, Elizabeth has been amazing in everything. We chose her smallest package and were astounded with how many high quality photos we received.

Elizabeth was prompt with communication, flexible with our wants, and well worth the price!!! Should we need pictures for something in the future, we will definitely go back to her with confidence.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
