Candy and Nikki are AMAZING at hair, makeup and posing help, and I pretty much haven't felt so cute in like 20 years. Whether you want to do retro pin-up pics or something a little racier, they will work hard to set you up for success and give you what you need to look incredible. I wondered if I shouldn't be closer to that elusive goal weight before I went, but the bottom line is that it made zero difference and thanks to these lovely ladies and their assist, the pics are super flattering anyway! Thank you Candy and Nikki!!!

I saw this page and went "screw business portraits, I wanna take photos of myself in a push-up bra!" I regret nothing. They provide the makeup and clothing, which is one of the reasons I went with them instead of another studio. You can bring props with you if you know what kind of photos you want, but all you really have to do is show up. And they mean it when they say they have every shade of foundation under the rainbow. I'm black, so my past experience with finding makeup that matches my skin tone has been frustrating, but Candy found my shade really fast. And both of them are good at guessing dress size, too. They walked away, came back with a rack full of options, and virtually everything I tried on fit. Nikki walks you through the poses as you're shooting. Just mirror what she does with a big smile, and the pictures come out awesome. I usually cringe whenever I see my face in a picture, but I stare at these photos all the time. I look awesome. I now have proof I'm adorable.

I love that she takes hundreds of photos and allows me to sign a print release so that I can take them to be printed later. I will continue to use Morgan for all of my photography needs.

I'm used to having to tell professionals I hire exactly what to do, but Rita had so many great ideas that she was the expert in charge, as it always ought to be! I am now spoiled by her excellent service. Her business branding session we did before the first shoot was incredibly valuable. I did not expect to get so many new ideas about how to advertise my business. This service set her apart in my search for a Kansas City area photographer and did not disappoint. She was also wonderful throughout both of the photoshoots. She thinks quickly and is great at keeping you smiling with humor, even at the end of a five-hour session. In addition, she goes the extra mile--she even helped me clean up and chop in the kitchen for the food photos! Best of all, the photographs all turned out wonderfully, and she got them to me promptly. Rita helped me to take my business to the next level! I'll consider using her even after I leave the Kansas City area. She gets my highest recommendation.

RITA IS THE BEST energy to be around when you are feeling vulnerable in front of the camera and nothing ever felt artificial or forced.

Rita's has captured my timeline and our story over the years and it's one of the most cherished things I have!

We got married in Los Angeles, but did a small ceremony in Kansas City a few months earlier, since…read morethe groom's mother wasn't able to travel to the wedding. While there, we used that opportunity to get some engagement photos, and picked Elements for the job. We were both so crazy about the experience - Kelly's skill, her demeanor, her cool studio and cooler personality - that when we left we wanted to find an excuse to meet up with her again. And the photos were better than we'd even hoped. Fun, cool, romantic, beautiful, all we could ask. Then, a couple of months later, we found ourselves talking with our L.A. wedding planner about wedding photos. She shared a number of very good photographers with us, but none struck us in as wonderful a way as Kelly had, and their prices were far higher. Just on the off chance, our planner phoned Kelly and found that we could fly her to L.A., put her up, give her a "second shooter," and she'd still come in at a lower cost than the ones out here. So we hired her again. And at the wedding and reception, she was every bit as wonderful as she had been in her studio - great for everyone to work with (including the videographers), delightful company... and the final results were just stunning. We urge everyone to find and choose a photographer whose portfolio matches your style and energy. But if you're lucky enough to find that Kelly does, we can't recommend Elements highly enough. There's no such thing as perfection in art, but Kelly is perfect.
