[fade]THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE, YOU MUST BE IN LOVE.[/fade]

[fade]Getting married in Kansas City? I’d love to be your wedding photographer.[/fade]

[fade]I want to find out what makes you who you are, what made you fall in love, and what is most important to you on your wedding day. How do you want to bring everyone together or where would you like to elope, just the two of you? Anything goes.[/fade]

[fade]Choose your own backdrop for a day full of whimsy, honesty, fun, tears, high-fives, dance moves, grandma’s pie. Whether that’s in your backyard, underneath the stars in Joshua Tree, in front of the pastel mountains of Jackson, at a boutique hotel, a beach in Tulum or marching through downtown NOLA with a band.[/fade]

[fade]Hello, I’m Kaley[/fade]

[fade] Kansas City Wedding Photographer [/fade]

[fade]I’m so happy you ended up here.[/fade]

[fade]I have an outstanding belief that making photographs is what I was called to do. My inspiration stems from genuine connection, human interaction, the 70’s, minimalism, fresh air, togetherness, earth tones, the desert, tonality, old cinema, foggy days, backyard gatherings, tangled limbs, misty rain, windblown hair, imperfections, the color white, movement, a fresh perspective.[/fade]

[fade]I find beauty in the silly moments, the mundane, the everyday. I discover wonder, whimsy and honesty from the life you are living and all that surrounds you.[/fade]

[fade]Traveling is my greatest form of inspiration, always. It leaves me feeling refreshed, recharged, and with stories to tell.[/fade]

[fade]I’m a natural-light-lovin, left handed, freckled, mildly extroverted but some days introverted, director of your life and what’s happening in the time that we have.

And I love photographing weddings in my hometown of Kansas City.

Let’s make some magic together. [/fade]

Testimonials

—Audrey & Brandon

“Kaley has an incredible sense for people’s inner emotion and for visually portraying intense love and fleeting moments of beauty. She seems to almost unite with her subjects to enter their emotional states and connections to draw that out.”

—Audrey & Brandon

—Corina & Dan

“We loved our time with Kaley, and knew our photos were going to reflect that. We both felt completely at ease with her during our wedding… Kaley allows you to be who you are and that completely comes through in the photos. We chose her for our wedding not only because we knew her work was amazing, but we wanted someone that felt like a friend. Someone who we could completely trust and who would feel free to create. When we saw our gallery, we knew had made the right choice. We love every single photo and will cherish them forever. She captured our love in the sweetest way, and we are beyond happy!”

—Corina & Dan

—Alysa & Phil

“Kaley has an innate ability to spot and authentically capture fleeting moments of beauty.”

—Alysa & Phil

—Amy & Jordan

“When we began planning our intimate elopement in Sayulita, we knew we wanted a photographer who would be able to capture our day just as differently as we had planned it. Kaley has this incredible way of seeing the in-between moments; the light and the emotion of every moment. When you only have four guests, your photographer feels like just as much a part of the wedding and Kaley felt like family. We are so thankful for the incredible images she captured of our day, for being so flexible with us and for giving us the ability to re-live our day as if we were in it again.”

—Amy & Jordan

—Amanda & Paul

“Kaley feels like a cool breeze when she comes into the room. She is absolutely professional, yet warm and engaging. On top of that, she takes amazing photographs and captured so many beautiful, engaging, memorable and sweet images of the most special weekend of our lives. I feel like Kaley understood our essence.”

—Amanda & Paul

—Natalie & Jaxon

“I love seeing the captured moment almost like I shouldn’t be looking because it’s so intimate, but can’t look away.”

—Natalie & Jaxon
