Ivory Grove was the perfect wedding photography team for our special day. Their communication was fast, reliable, and they were very well spoken throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional, and they put in the time and effort to ensure we captured every moment we wanted.

  • Serves Smithville, MO

I love capturing people in their very human moments. Images that really resonate with me are those which capture the essence of a person, a relationship, or just raw emotion. I search to photograph moments in which people reveal who they really are. This drive affects everything I do. Weddings are a breeding ground for these types of moments and emotions. Honest love, friendship, and joy. This is why I have chosen to specialize in this type of photography, because it speaks to me in a way than nothing else does.

The awesome thing about Meghan is the unique and tailored experience each client receives. No two are the same, while she's still able to deliver a consistent look and feel as seen in her portfolio.

  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Smithville, MO

Welcome! I'm Matthew! I'm a lifestyle photographer specializing in wedding photography and family photography. In life, there are planned moments, unplanned moments, tears, laughter, excitement, and surprise. Photography should capture the essence of those moments. It’s my pleasure to take part in the lives of my clients and to make these moments into timeless, tangible treasures.

Matt is so talented and amazing to work with. He's become our family photographer, capturing our pivotal life moments. We first met Matt when he photographed my husband's proposal. Over the years, he's captured such joy during our engagement photoshoot, our wedding day, maternity shoots, and our son's first birthday. He even helped us capture treasured family photos with our daughter after she was stillborn. They're one of the few mementos we have of her. Matt truly gave us a gift in providing those memories with the photoshoot. He is a very talented photographer who's always open to trying out poses I see on Pinterest, but he's also phenomenal at capturing truly beautiful candid moments. He always brings such positive energy to our shoots and shares in our excitement during the shoot itself and the planning process. On top of being incredibly talented and kind, he's very flexible, great at communicating, and gets the end product back to us really quickly. With Matt as your photographer, you'll not only wind up with beautiful photos, but you'll also end up with memories to last a lifetime from the shoot itself. I know we have!

In a nutshell - I am your giddy third wheel! I’ll travel anywhere for a great love story, I believe photography should be FUN, and that it should feel like an adventure because really, it’s just us, going on a little adventure together! This is also a no pressure situation! You don’t have to know “how to pose” — this isn’t about posing at all! This is 100% about us 3 out and about together, having fun, laughing a ton, and me giving you guys prompts and direction all in the effort of eliciting a natural reaction!

I can't recommend Elizabeth Ladean Photography enough!! I've had the opportunity to work together personally and professionally many times over the years. She truly is the best in the business!! She is extremely talented as a photographer and has a knack for making you feel comfortable and at ease. She is responsive, organized, and proactive. I've worked with many wedding professionals; she has always stood out in the way she runs her business! When you work with Elizabeth you'll get gorgeous, timeless photos but also a memorable experience!! Highly recommend!!!

The process is detailed, so that decisions are made prior to the big day, which helps to alleviate decisions on the day-of. Her photography is out of this world with the angles she finds and the moments she is able to capture. Kyle also has quite the eye for capturing clips throughout the day that make such a spectacular video. 10/10 recommend this duo and their team!!

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend hiring Caleb for your wedding, or any event.

Yes, my name is actually Zola. I am a photographer of over 7 yrs. Engagements, and weddings are by far my favorite. I mean, besides that I love wedding cake, I love being able to create and preserve memories unique to YOU. I guess that is why all my photos are not cookie cut or the same. See, I am a former DIY bride (omg that was stressful!) and so I make it a point to get to know my couples, their story, and vision. I am there for all of it. I want to be in the stressful planning, I even love creating timelines for the event, cause honey we are not rushing and sweating on wedding day.
