Classy moments for the drunk in love



You want your photos to feel like you two, silly and drunk in love. Imagine popping out of the outfit you've been dying to wear and getting pre-dinner drinks together.  


You should be able to look at your photos 10 years from now and think, "Yep. That is still us."

Couple Reactions

"The photos were better than I could have ever expected. Not only were the images gorgeous, but they felt like us. I loved the ones of us laughing together because that's us on an average day, and it was important that our photos did not feel too staged!"

Testimonials

"I loved our session and the results. Nothing was forced. You captured both our images and essence. I told one of my friends that there were so many good pictures I figured I’d give social media a break so they wouldn’t think we were showing off."

Testimonials
Bride and groom share joyful kiss during confetti send-off with wedding party lining the pathway.

"Joslin is very calm and go-with-the-flow, and it's very nice having that grounded presence during a hectic and chaotic time. I really like that she got to know us as people and friends and not just clients. I like that she kind of worked in silence when capturing candid moments, but also spoke up and gave direction when doing more editorial shots... After taking a photo and hearing "YES GIRL" or "YUP THAT'S THE ONE!" really disarms me and boosts my confidence."

Not your typical lovey dovey Midwest couples + wedding photographer


I’m Joslin — dog mom, downtown Kansas City enthusiast, and the photographer behind the camera. My work is inspired by couples who love getting dressed up and going out for drinks and value personality over perfection when it comes to photos.  


When I’m not photographing couples who are obsessed with each other, you’ll probably find me wandering around the Library District or the Garment District pretending I’m in Chicago… or sitting at a patio happy hour with something sweet in my glass (usually an Amaretto Sour or Moscato).


Around here, photos aren’t about standing and smiling. They’re about capturing the kind of moments that feel like your favorite date night, the ones you’ll want to relive forever.

Imagine actually being excited and looking forward to taking photos together.



All because your photos are inspired by you, your relationship and your type of date nights so at the end of the day you can get candid photos that feel like you.  

I need this!!!
