Hi, I'm Adrienne
Photographer, artist, educator & mother — lover of light and collector of chairs.
I am a photographer, artist, educator and speaker based in Kansas City. Since 2005 I've partnered with CEOs, startups and families alike — photographing events, weddings and portraits while creating fine-art pieces for hundreds of clients.
I engage with my subjects, craft beautiful lighting and direct all the elements required to create powerful images and tell stories. I can effectively help you create intentional branding and emotional advertising campaigns. I have a vision — and I won't stop until I see it through.
Lover of light and collector of chairs. Just over five feet tall, I may be small in stature but I make up for it with a large personality, talent and passion for photography. Get me talking about photography and it's easy to understand why families and businesses return year after year.
I launched my studio at 22 after graduating with a B.F.A. in photography from the Savannah College of Art & Design — one of the most prestigious art and design schools in the country. After moving to Kansas City my images appeared on magazine covers, in feature articles, newspapers, advertisements and blogs. I'm an award-winning member of WPPI and WPJA and a featured artist in galleries throughout the nation.
I give back to the Kansas City community by serving on the boards of AIGA and the Kansas City Artists Coalition (KCAC). In 2024 I organized an event for Kansas City Design Week focusing on the challenges and benefits AI brings to the creative industry.
When I'm not behind the camera or teaching photography, I enjoy singing in the shower, perfecting my evil laugh and impromptu dance parties in my living room.
What every session is built on
01 Mastery
Turning the ordinary into the extraordinary isn't easy — but I've been at it for over 20 years, backed by a B.F.A. from SCAD and a life steeped in creativity.
02 Impact
My mission is to create an experience and leave a lasting impression: to take risks and make a little magic happen every time.
03 Insight
I ask questions, dig deeper, and authentically capture your essence — or the distinct character of your brand — by noticing the details others overlook.
04 Investment
I bring positive energy that helps you overcome insecurities and feel at ease, cultivating the kind of interactive experience that transcends life into art.
