From the first time we met her during our virtual consultation, we knew Barbara was going to be the perfect fit for capturing our story! She has a very sweet, humorous, laid back personality which made it really comfortable for us to be ourselves in front of the camera. She clearly is experienced, knows ALL the angles and does a great job communicating her vision in the moment. She makes it fun! At the same time though she is one of those photographers who is totally open to ideas the couples have and that was much appreciated. Barbara provided us with an engagement shoot as part of our wedding package as well, which I think really helped us on our wedding day, having already had a session with her and knowing her style and vibe. Again, she makes you feel super at ease in front of the camera which is as important as anything else in a photographer. Don't think twice about who to pick for capturing your big day, we can't recommend Barbara enough! P.S. Be sure to ask her about her video options as well, they are a beautiful addition to any photography package!
I honestly cannot speak highly enough of Barbara. Not only is she an amazing photographer, but she is personable and professional. She was the only photographer willing to do a zoom call with me so we could interact in person (as much as one can being in a totally different state) and made me feel so comfortable and confident in my decision. She was very quick to respond to any questions I had via email and made sure that we were all on the same page for the wedding day timeline. She even met with me and my fiance a few days before the wedding for coffee so we could chat and finalize any last minute details. Her photography is amazing, her artistic eye and skill set is one of a kind, and from the first moment I spoke to her it was like catching up with a longtime friend.
Capturing a wedding has so many high expectations and Barbara had exceeded them with leaps & bounds! If you are looking for a highly reliable, personable, and skilled photographer, Barbara is the one.
From our initial consultation, we felt very comfortable and at ease with her personality & energy, which is highly important under a (potentially) high stress wedding day. Barabara has the patience of a saint when it comes to wrangling the entire wedding party, a set of dogs, & a VERY drunken uncle (😂).
Barbara was super flexible with our plans as we wanted to do a separate photoshoot from the venue & at different times of the day (photoshoot was in the early morning while the wedding was early afternoon).
We highly appreciated her guidance, from recommending the best times to take photos at Garden of the Gods (an hour later and the parking would be difficult to find) to encouraging us to try different poses that were less comfortable for us (we are not big PDA people) but not to the point where we froze up from anxiety. She was very in tune with us.
ALL the photos came out simply amazing: the posed photos, the stills of the venue/background, & the candid moments. She was also SUPER FAST in getting the reception photos done & following up with the rest of them! She exceeded the number of photos she had promised. She always delivered when she said she would.
Thank you for perfectly capturing one of the best moments of our lives with such care.
Barbara photographed our elopement in Colorado this summer. I'm also a photographer so finding the right person was super important to us. I loved her style and her communication was fantastic through the whole process. If you want to get married in the mountains, Barbara is definitely a great choice for your photographer!
Barbara and her team were fantastic to work with! Our pictures and video are absolutely amazing. We hired her to do our engagement photos and we loved them so much, we asked her to do our wedding! We highly recommend Barbara when booking your photographer!
Blown away. My husband and I are just completely blown away. Barbara did such a fantastic job. We got photos and video from her and I literally cry every time I watch our video. It's perfect. Thank you, barbara!
As a gay couple, we were wary of finding a good wedding photographer. We looked through a ton of different profiles before we found Barb on Instagram. Wow. She was amazing. She immediately felt like family which is good because my husband is definitely not a people person. And her pictures were amazing. It was so fantastic not to have to worry at all on our wedding day. We set up a photo timeline with her a month before our wedding day and after that, we didn't have to think about when or where to be! She took care of it all! Such a relief! You should definitely book her. We're certainly glad we did.
We drove in for our elopement at Garden of the Gods and Barbara was fantastic! I was so worried because it was raining as we pulled up but the sky cleared just enough and Barbara got some amazing photos with the dramatic sky over the mountains! She kept great communication and very knowledgeable about spots to take photos at (which was good because we'd never been to Garden of the Gods before we got there!) I highly recommend!
Barbara was probably the best choice we made for wedding vendors. Her approach to creating a beautiful photograph was so intentional yet she put us totally at ease. My husband (then fiancé) and I were so nervous about our engagement session but she made us feel very comfortable and even helped us loosen up. I really felt as though we got to know her even though it was such a brief period of time that we spent together overall. The quality of the photographs will stand the test of time and really speak for themselves. They are romantic, brooding, and luxuriant which matched our décor and colors perfectly. Our engagement photos were more flirty, but still classic just showing that she has a deep understanding of creating a feeling with the way she edits photos. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely look to book her in the future for other photos.
Barbra is the best and was above and beyond what I expected for our wedding! She’s original, talented, incredibly easy to work with and extremely prompt (we got our pictures back weeks before I expected they’d be ready). She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Finally, Barbara was within our price range. She produced fabulous work and we couldn’t be happier. We would 100% recommend! ♥️
Barbara did an amazing job with the engagement and wedding pictures for my brother-in-laws. As a first time wedding planner & coordinator she helped ease my worries about the when’s and the where’s. She also showed us her secret GOLDEN HOUR LOCATION for the perfect picture! It’s a KC gem! Thank you Barbara.
Barbara did the photos and video for our wedding and WOW. We didn't want a lot of posing on our wedding day and we wanted things to flow naturally and Barbara captured all that perfectly. She's so laid back and calm, she helped me stay calm! I've watched our video several times and I cry every time! She's pretty fantastic and if you're looking for someone to do both pictures and video, she's the one.
Wow! Wow! Wow! Barbara is such a talented photographer. She was fantastic to work with and all her shots really captured the magic of our special day. I would recommend her to anyone whether you're getting eloped or doing the big show. She kept great contact throughout the entire process. Please. Book her. You won't regret it.
Barbara and her team were extraordinary. They were very professional and warm. The photos and video both turned out amazing. We couldn't be happier with her communication and our pictures!
Barbara was fantastic to work with! As soon as we talked we knew she was the one to help capture our special day! She listened and even let us give her ideas. She just went with it. She helped me so much, come up with a plan and even help keep the flow of our reception! We definitely will not have professional photos taken by anyone other than Barbara and her team, going forward! They helped carry very special moments that we will forever cherish!
Barbara is absolutely amazing. As a photographer she just knows how to highlight the couple and allow the background to be an accent. We are pleased with her work, professionalism, and punctuality. Better yet her communication is on point!
Barbara was great to work with! She is very personable and professional and made sure we were comfortable during our engagement session and on our wedding day. She got was able to capture many memorable moments which showcased our personalities, and we are so happy with the final photographs! We highly recommend Barbara for your next photo session!
Seriously the best vendor of our entire wedding. We met her at a LGBTQ networking event and knew right away we wanted her to photograph our wedding. She not only got a lot of great photos of my partner and I but she got pictures of everything I could've possibly wanted. She got photos of the kids dancing at the reception and of my best friend setting up our guest book and of my in-laws meeting my extended family who flew in all the way from India. It was all the stuff I didn't get to see since I was so busy. She is really one of the best candid photographers I've seen and I am so glad we met her and so glad she was able to be part of our wedding.
As an artist, finding the right photographer was our top priority. We looked at a ton of people's websites before we found Barbara. Her work was energetic and so fun and when we met her, we were in love. She came up with some great shoot ideas for our engagement photos and helped us plan our wedding day so we got some of the best photos I could've hoped for. But beyond that, she is also one of the kindest people I've met and we were blown away again and again by her thoughtfulness all the months leading up to our wedding. You should definitely pick Barbara when picking your photographer. She does more than just take pictures, she winds up being your friend.
We knew right away that we wanted Barbara to photograph our wedding. We did a phone consultation and we all clicked so easily, it was an easy choice! On our wedding day, she was professional and kind. She knew how important certain pictures were for us (like me and my grandma) and made certain I got some beautiful ones. Then we had a slideshow of the best images from the day sent to us that night! She was so fast in getting us our pictures it was amazing! I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic photographer.
Barbara was fantastic to work with! We received a lot of really beautiful photos of our special day. She captured some very genuine moments, and the edits were well done. Barbara was very professional, easygoing, friendly, and supportive. Very flexible and willing to roll with things!
Barbara was AMAZING. A few days before the wedding she sent me a thoughtful questionnaire about my specific preferences for the day. She assertively (yet politely) organized our chaotic families for group pictures, coached us through poses, drove us to River Market, the lock bridge, and the Central Library downtown in between the ceremony and the reception. I’ve heard of people having to wait weeks for their wedding pictures. Barbara literally had ours ready the day after the wedding. We could not have asked for a better photographer.
She captured the moments and locations that meant the most to me during our ceremony and celebration, and the photos really showcase the natural beauty of the place we chose for our wedding. We did our own decorating and the pictures remind me of just how great everything turned out. I wasn't counting on being almost 7 months pregnant for our wedding and was so glad to have some photos where I look beautiful!
Barbara was super calm which meant a lot because when she arrived, I was a mess! But she was able to capture the amazing moments I kind of missed being so overwhelmed. I am not big into pictures and working with Barbara was our first time really doing anything professional. She was on time, and captured moments I wouldn't have even thought of. Her prices are amazing and made it possible for us to even consider having the photos done. She made us feel so comfortable and blended in at the same time. I cannot thank her enough!
Barbara was absolutely great to work with. We had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid and she was super flexible. On our wedding day, she was super laid back but really professional. My maid of honor was late and Barbara actually helped me get in my dress. Somehow she managed to do that and still get some great pictures! And all our pictures turned out so great! We already have several picked out to frame! I highly recommend her!
We used Barb for our engagement photos and loved her when it came time to do our wedding she was the first choice. Worked with us to make sure we got any specific shots we wanted and had done great ideas as well. Aslo got stone GREAT candid shots both throughout our ceremony and reception. Cost was more than reasonable and professional throughout. Edited them and had them ready when we got back from our honymoon. We have used her again several tunes since our wedding and will again!
Barbara is wonderful to work with! She’s easy going, professional and talented. We liked her so much that we’re using her again for our maternity pictures.
Barb was amazing! She made taking pictures so easy and fun. She stepped up and help me adjust my dress and spread out my train. She had great ideas of photos to take and was very open to other ideas and made sure we got everything we wanted. We had our dog involved and she made sure to get pictures with him because we expressed how important it was to us. She really cares about taking fabulous pictures that make the day memorable.
I would use her for other events in the future. Very eat to work with and affordable
It was such a pleasure to work with Barb & Jered and have them take part in our big day. They are both so easy to work with and the pictures turned out fantastic. I would recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer.
I can't say enough good things about them! Barb caught every little detail of my day! She was thoughtful and right there in the moment! Extremely affordable too! My pictures are incredible and so is Barb!!
Barb captured my day this year. Of every person that I hired for the wedding, she was the most professional. She showed up on time (at a difficult spot to find) and stayed late at no extra charge. My photographs were absolutely SPECTACULAR. My only problem was that there were too many good ones! So hard to choose which ones to frame :) I would definitely recommend Artistic Imagery to all of my friends for their big day. I think they are a great price for the work they do!
These two just never stopped moving! The only time I didn't see Barb & Jared running around was during the ceremony itself-- which since we had a full Mass, it was important to us to find photographers who were unobtrusive. Barb had some really great ideas for photos and they were both so easy and personable. Jared's so great, he was the only one who could get the flower girl to smile! I would definitely recommend them to everyone!
Look no further, you have found the perfect photographer! My fiancee and I absolutely LOVED working with Barb on our engagement photos and our wedding day! She knows what she's doing and her passion shines through! Her photos turned out fabulous and she was fun and easy to work with. I would reccomend her to anyone and everyone for any special occasion or event. We just had such a great time with her. I will definitely be using her services in the future! I wouldn't even consider anyone else!
Barb is wonderful!!! I had no clue what type of photos I wanted for my wedding. She took her time working with me and my husband. They were on time and our wedding was the day after a bad snow storm 1/30/10. Although majority of our guest couldn't make it due to the last minute storm; Barb made sure we got some wonderful shots. I will recommend her anytime. They were truly a pleasure to work with. My photos were delivered before the estimated date and I love them.
Best Regards
Adrienne and Willie Triplett
Barb & Jared were great. My parents said they hardly even noticed they were there during the wedding and Barb was so laid back when like half the wedding party was running late. . . they have such great senses of humor and really made us laugh! I think you can definitely tell the diference in our pictures. Thanks again!
