    The Most Amazing Photographer!

    My husband and I are so beyond happy that we used Elizabeth Ladean Photography for our engagement and wedding photos!  Both sets of photos came out fabulously.....they were exactly what I wanted and beautifully captured our relationship and special day.  Everyone who has seen them has absolutely loved them.   And we can't say enough good things about working with Elizabeth as our photographer.   She was one of our very favorite vendors for our wedding....a complete professional.  Her communication and the resources and information she provided us were exceptional.  During our engagement photoshoot her energy was amazing and she was great at giving us detailed instructions and making the whole process fun.  During the wedding, she was even more amazing....high energy yet calm and positive  She captured all of the shots we could have possibly wanted.  She was also great at interacting with our families (who are sometimes hard to wrangle!). Hiring Elizabeth was definitely one of the best choices we made for our wedding and I know we will treasure the photos she captured forever.

    Amazing, would recommend over and over!

    Elizabeth has been an amazing person next to our side throughout all of the wedding adventures. She took our engagement pictures as well so she has been with us for awhile now! From the very beginning, we have always loved having Elizabeth as our photographer. During our engagement pictures, it felt as if we had known her for years. Super comfortable, made us genuinely laugh (which made for great pictures), and we truly had the best time behind the camera. On our wedding day, she was able to get pictures of both sides of our wedding party, which was incredible. We can't recommend Elizabeth enough. She got our entire wedding gallery back to us to quickly and we are utterly OBSESSED with them!! We can't wait to get to use Elizabeth again sometime soon!!

    Absolutely amazing!

    We asked Elizabeth to take our engagement photos knowing we wanted to show Kansas City as part of our story. From the beginning, her sweet personality showed through her emails where she was very responsive & helpful. She was extremely flexible & accommodating! We postponed our shoot due to weather- which she kept an eye on for us all day- and then when we decided to risk it an hour later, she was ready to go & met us on location within the hour. She helped make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, took the time to get to know us, and (best of all) delivered AMAZING photos over 2 weeks ahead of her normal turnaround! Could not recommended more enthusiastically!

    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.

    ELP review

    I cannot say enough good things about Elizabeth! She is quick to respond to every email or text and is incredibly organized and on top of everything. She's so personable and will become a close friend after your first meeting! Not to mention she's an AMAZING photographer, I couldn't have asked for anything. more! I can't recommend her enough!

    Hire elp asap!

    Elizabeth was absolutely incredible. From the very first phone call to getting our wedding album, she's been so amazing and made us feel so comfortable. We wanted a photographer who had the ability to guide us into the perfect positions/poses for both our engagement and wedding photos that looked natural & she nailed that aspect. Not only are her photos beautiful, but Elizabeth helped create a wedding day timeline, managed our big groups of friends & family, and worked seamlessly with our other vendors - especially our videographer. She truly felt like another wedding planner to help our day go as smooth as possible. I couldn't recommend Elizabeth enough. She's 100% worth the investment. Booking ELP was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning!

    We loved her!!!

    There is no other choice in photography...Elizabeth is the best!! We had our wedding during Covid-19 and had to limit our guests to just immediate family. Elizabeth was willing to do our photography and was a pleasant part of our "Big Day." She was so warm and professional, but still made it feel like a friend taking our pictures. We look forward to sharing more of our special life moments with her.

    ELP - The Best!!!

    Everyone - HIRE THIS AMAZING HUMAN!! Elizabeth is the best!! Not only is she the sweetest and so fun to hangout with but she is an expert at what she does. She was highly communicative and eased some stress as the wedding got closer. It seems most vendors don't really focus on/discuss details o your day until 30 days out from your wedding date (understandable, as they have other weddings before yours, but it results in everything happening all at once). Elizabeth was right there to answer any odd ball questions (no matter how far out from our date) and had amazing recommendations! My now husband and I are never super thrilled with having our photos taken, especially a lot of them and Elizabeth handled this perfectly. She made us feel so comfortable and was able to capture some amazing, natural photos. My husband walked away from our engagement session saying... "that was actually pretty fun!" --- blew my mind! :) Oh, and Elizabeth was a miracle worker with our 3 crazy/large pups, getting ALL 3 to look at the camera at the same time for the best family photo ever!!! On our wedding day she was on top of everything. Somehow knew just what to capture all day long and she was very roll-with- the-punches, as I deviated from our 'plan' a few times. Her turn around time is seriously impressive with sneak peaks the next day and all of our photos just a few weeks later. She's the best! If you reach out to her, you won't regret it!!!

    Seriously- just choose Elizabeth!!!

    Elizabeth- we cannot thank you enough!! From the initial phone call to the engagement session to the wedding- you knocked it out of the park! We are IN LOVE with our photos, seriously, they are PHENOMENAL! To anyone reading this review- if you're considering Elizabeth as your photographer, just do it. She is so incredibly sweet and friendly, has CRAZY GOOD talent for taking photos that capture the moment and your love for your partner. She had a ton of recommendations for us for vendors which came in clutch as we were planning the wedding from afar. (We didnt live in the city our venue was in.) We used the engagement album she made us as our wedding guestbook which folks thought was so neat!! (Elizabeth's idea- again, she is a genius!!) Our family was extremely impressed with the photos and we are really excited to print and frame some here soon! Elizabeth, thank you again for making our special day so perfect. If anyone asks us for recommendations on photographers, they will only be hearing your name!! :) See our big day photo sneak peak here: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=358294159195502&id=100050447636736&m_entstream_source=timeline

    Great to work with!

    Elizabeth did a wonderful job! She took my engagement pictures and was the photographer for my wedding. She was awesome to work with and went above and beyond. She took the time to view my venue prior to the wedding to get the best possible pictures. She is so professional and great at communicating! She responded quickly to all my emails. Highly recommend! 🥰

    Hire this woman!

    Elizabeth has a special way of taking photos and capturing more than what meets the eye. In her photos, she captures the real and raw emotions. When we look at our engagement and wedding photos I instantly remember the moment she captured and what I was feeling. She makes taking photos easy and fun and she is an absolute JOY to be around! 10/10 would recommend

    Flawless!

    I cannot say enough about how amazing Elizabeth is. She is so much more than a photographer! She was 100% hands down the best decision we could have made throughout the wedding planning process. She was flawless from the first day we met her. When we said goodbye on our wedding night it was like saying goodbye to a friend! We miss her! She is so organized, on top of everything, and so talented. She replies to emails and texts so quickly and keeps wonderful track of what needs to be done when. She makes taking pictures effortless and a fun experience! I was worried that my now husband would not know what to do but she made everything so easy! Choose Elizabeth!! We will be going to her for all of our photography needs in the future!

    Best Photographer in all of KC

    Elizabeth is an absolutely, fantastic person. She is easy to work with, gives clear, easy to follow instructions during the photoshoot, and is simply fun to work with. She is very responsive to emails, her website is intuitive and easy to use to download and purchase your photos. She is very flexible with picking times for photoshoots, or extending/shifting the shoot times (like if the groom drives to the wrong location for the engagement shoot).
    Her photos are amazing, and look so natural. Her albums are a very high quality and are made to last a lifetime.

    If you need a wedding photographer, look no further!

    The best photographer you will find!

    Choosing Elizabeth to be our photographer was easily one of the absolute BEST decisions we made! She is an amazing photographer and truly cares about each couple she works with. She made everything a breeze from the very beginning. Elizabeth does so much more than taking amazing pictures; she is there to answer any questions you have, she puts together a timeline for the wedding day to help things run smoothly, and she is such a calming and fun person to be around! Her pictures are absolutely stunning. She makes everything feel so natural and the essence of the couple really shows through the photos. Elizabeth made the wedding day so much fun and I couldn't imagine the day without her. Book her NOW, you won't regret it!

    We love Elizabeth!!

    Elizabeth was such a joy to work with! She brought so much energy and enthusiasm throughout the entire wedding planning process and made our lives so much easier. From our initial meeting to engagement photos, frequently checking in to see how we were doing, and finally celebrating with us on our special day, it was so nice to have Elizabeth around. There are so many things we loved about working with Elizabeth, from her bubbly personality, organization with the photo day-of timeline, affordable pricing, crazy FAST turnaround time editing, and her light and airy photo style. We had so much fun scooting around Kansas City with her for our engagement photos and wedding party photos. She even took the time to edit out pesky light poles from our photos and made sure everything was perfect! My husband said Elizabeth should just be a straight up wedding planner because she was such a huge help to us during the planning process. I even used her day-of photography timeline to share with my other vendors. You definitely want to have Elizabeth there on your big day!

    Our favorite vendor!

    Elizabeth was hands down the best vendor choice we made for our big day. Her attention to detail is unparalleled and her professionalism put our minds at ease through the entire process. Our engagement photo session, preparing for the wedding day, and even building our wedding album were so, so easy. On top of all she does for her couples, she also runs an outstanding blog. We can't say enough good things about her. If you have the chance to snag Elizabeth for your big day, do it!

    Best Photographer out there!!

    Elizabeth is hands down the best photographer out there! From our first meeting a little over a year before the wedding we knew immediately had to hire her. During the planning process Elizabeth made us feel super comfortable and eased our stresses during the pandemic. Our engagement session was perfect and she even helped us include our pups into the photos. The day of our wedding she was the calm that guided us throughout the day. She made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and ensured we had fun taking them. We have gotten so many compliments on our engagement and wedding photos. We received our wedding gallery 7 weeks after the big day and couldn’t be happier! I am lucky to say Elizabeth has become a friend. 🤗

    Wedding Photographer

    If you’re getting married, Elizabeth HAS to be your wedding photographer. She is so amazing!!! We are so so so thankful that we chose her to be apart of our big day. In the beginning of my wedding planning, I always said to myself and my now husband, that we are not cutting ourselves short on a photographer, because we will have these photos for the rest of our lives. We chose Elizabeth to be our photographer in 2018, and got married October of 2020. She consistently was reaching out to us before our wedding day making sure we were doing okay, asking if we needed any help with wedding planning, giving us timelines, and overall just updating us on the current COVID situation- sending all positive vibes to us! She does a complimentary engagement photo shoot in the package we purchased. We live out of town and Elizabeth was very flexible with us trying to figure a good time for our engagement photos. We did our engagement photos the same week as our wedding because of the pandemic, and I wouldn’t of wanted it any other way! She gives GREAT tips during the engagement session on how to pose and work around the camera. When it came to our wedding day, I would say from her tips & tricks, we felt so much more comfortable.

    During our wedding day, Elizabeth was fun & energetic. We got our wedding photos back within 7 weeks and the gallery she provides, is very simple where we can just order straight from the website and download the album to wherever we want. I get A TON of compliments on my wedding photos and I got A TON of compliments the day after my wedding on how amazing she was with everybody. She took pictures of every detail we had on our wedding day. The day goes by so fast that I barely even remembered seeing a lot of my decor. But, with the photos she got, I will always have those to look back on.

    You will not regret choosing her to be your wedding photographer!

    Absolutely love her!

    If you need a photographer then LOOK NO FURTHER! Elizabeth is the most incredible person to capture your special moments to cherish forever. Working with her was absolutely the best decision we made for our wedding and maternity photos!! She puts so much heart into her work and truly makes you feel special. She has a brilliant eye for capturing your special occasions and really she makes you feel at such ease with the level of comfort she brings.

    Best Around

    We’d recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Elizabeth is very responsive, easy to talk to, and insanely talented. Being in front of the camera can be awkward at times but Elizabeth just keeps you laughing the entire time. We booked services with Elizabeth a yr before our wedding and at the time we lived out of state. She was always accommodating to our busy schedule and always always always responded to emails quickly, which left a HUGE impression on us. The end result were the most stunning pictures I have ever seen. She has a real talent to capture candid moments AND all the behind the scenes moments that are completely forgotten about after a busy day. Post wedding, Elizabeth delivered the digital photos on time and produced the most captivating photo album that will remain a treasure in our lives. Not only is Elizabeth the best in town, but she’s now a friend that we are lucky to have.
