Location Examples

Not sure where to start? Need some inspiration? I’ve compiled a list of locations around the Kansas City Area! You can use this list to get inspired, plan your session stops, and get ideas for your perfect photo shoot with me! Not pictured here are the personal spots that you may opt for, such as the bar you met at, your own house, or specific special spot that may be meaningful to you! I’m down for ANYTHING and can’t wait to help you plan!


PLAZA AREA SPOTS


Country Club Plaza & Brush Creek


 

Nelson Atkins Museum of Art


 

Anita B. Gorman Nature Area
(1 Block from Nelson Atkins)

This area is beautiful year-round and offers 3 very distinct “seasonal” looks. Spring and Summer are green with plenty of wildflowers and tall grass. Fall will be more golden, with the tall grass turning yellow. Winter the tall grass will be yellow/ivory color.


 

Loose Park
Now requires advance booking for photo permits, subject to availability.

Loose Park is popular for a reason! Water features, a rose garden, open green spaces full of old trees. I will cover the permit, but we’ll just need enough notice to get one - about 2 weeks. Weekends the park can be extremely busy and we’ll need to allow plenty of time to accomodate large wedding parties/groups.


 

Downtown Kansas City Area & Vicinity

Liberty Memorial


 

Westin Hotel Sport Deck


 

Union Station / Kessler & Pershing


 

Crossroads Arts District / Kauffman Center / Loews Hotel

Loews Hotel and Kauffman Center may be subject to availability and private events. Indoor photo permits and fees are required for Kauffman center indoors and subject to availability.


Hotel Kansas City

I’m lucky enough to have a special permit and waived fees as a preferred partner of Hotel Kansas City. Subject to availability/private events.


 

Colonnade at Concourse Park (NE KC) & Museum of Kansas City. Historic NE.

The museum is a stunning indoor location, subject to specific hours and requiring a photo permit and fees. The colonnade is free and open to the public, a great rainy day plan as it’s fully covered.


 

Library District - Downtown 10th & Main


 

Historic Downtown - 11th & Central

Very close to additional sites like Library District, Hotel KC, Crossroads/Kauffman Center


 

On the Kansas Side…

Mission Hills

Verona Columns, Hiawassee Park, Belinder Circle - All of these locations are within very short drives and could be considered “1” location. Great for greenery and classic park like setting.


 

Shawnee Mission Lake
