Marie was a delight to work with! We receive so many compliments on our wedding pictures. She was professional, respectful in church, and so much fun! Her photos are light, airy, and beautiful, while staying true to the fun and lighthearted atmosphere of our day.
When looking for a photographer for our wedding we met with three different people. Hands down, Marie seemed like the best fit for us. She was so down to earth and easy to plan with. We had fun doing our engagement photos with her even though it was a freezing cold day. On our wedding day she took a ton of photos and we are so happy with the way the turned out. They are beautiful and timeless. We will treasure them for years.
Marie is a dear friend of ours. Her photography is classic and timeless, which is an exact reflection of how I felt on our wedding day. She was able to make my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera. I’ve always admired her work early on. She will curate beautiful and natural photos of you and your loved ones. You will not only have a photographer, but a friend, coordinator, and sidekick on your big day!
Marie is first and foremost my best friend. My family was one of the first shoots she did when she was starting out years ago and she shot my sisters wedding 2 years ago so of course she was going to shoot my wedding! I think she now qualifies as our family photographer! Her work is amazing! Her editing skills are amazing and her work with film photography is beautiful! We had so much fun shooting our wedding photos and I can’t stop swiping through them.
She keeps everyone on task and makes sure we got all the important shots we had on our list and so much more!
I couldn’t have had a better experience capturing the most magical day of my life!
Marie was a blast to work with, and my photos turned out even better than I could have imagined. My husband and I have had 3 different shoots with her and absolutely love everything she has shot. Our wedding photos are amazing.
Words cannot describe how great Marie and John were for our wedding. Their photos were absolutely perfect and they captured every special moment of our day as well as our engagement photos. They were very organized and coordinated for the whole day. We can't recommend them enough! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further!
Marie and John are brilliant! The images of the ceremony captured the joy of my husband and I, the love of our friends and family, and the reception images showcase the excitement and fun we had with friends and family. I met Marie when I was a bridesmaid in another wedding she shot. She was so easy to get along that I knew I needed someone as fresh and fun as this awesome duo capture our day. We are so thankful for John and Marie!
Marie and John are amazing!! They went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. Not only are they both great people, but they are very talented. Our Wedding and engagement photos are beautiful!! We couldn’t have asked for better photographers for our special day.
Marie and John are AMAZING! This was a "destination" wedding (for them at least) as they flew into our hometown to shoot my sister's wedding. I was the Maid of Honor and did the day of coordination as well as a lot of the pre wedding coordination. Marie and John were a huge calming influence in the chaos and went with the flow as the schedule changed (the groomsmen being late, hair and makeup running long etc) the day of the wedding. They made sure they had a clear understanding of what my sister wanted and what the schedule for the day was so that they could capture all of the "must have" photos and made sure they caught everything amidst the chaos.
The final photographs were amazing! The posed photographs at the church with our families and the wedding party were stunning. I am in love with Marie's editing style! My favorite part of looking through the wedding gallery photos though was seeing all the more candid shots they caught. They always seemed to be in just the right spot to catch those genuine smiles and happy moments during both the ceremony and the reception. I will treasure most the photos she caught of my sister's impromptu dance with our elderly grandfather and catching the pure joy on his face. Truly pictures that will be displayed on our mantles for decades!
Marie and John were so great to work with! We are so happy with our engagement and wedding photos!
Marie & John were wonderful to work with and very accommodating . If you want excellent customer service and excellent photos, they are your people! Our engagement photos exceeded my expectations and I couldn't be happier!
Marie and John were fantastic to work with. They were very professional and kept things moving so we could get the pictures we wanted in the short time we had. I love all our pictures and the moments they captured.
We loved our experience! You guys made our engagement session fun and were very cooperative during the wedding. We loved our time after the wedding taking our bride and groom photos. Y’all captured every moment perfectly and we couldn’t have been happier with it all!
These guys are dynamic duo!! John and Marie are a great couple and they worked really hard to make sure that we had beautiful photos. The venue that we shot at was gorgeous and I can not stop looking at our photos. The photos are so amazing. I would recommend them to anyone 1000 times over. Even if you not in the KC area I recommend you fly Marie and John out to your location and have them as your photographers. They will not disappoint you.
Marie and John went above and beyond for our wedding day. I was super stressed out and I'm naturally an anxious person, but they made everything go much smoother. The images that came out were AMAZING, and I could not have asked for a better photography team to do my wedding. Can't wait to use their skills for future anniversary and family sessions!
John and Marie are an amazing team. They were very organized and helped make my wedding stress-free. The photos they produce are beautiful and exactly what I was looking for!
I just need to start off by saying Marie and John were absolutely amazing to work with. From the moment my husband and I met them we knew there was no reason to look further. Their style was exactly what we were looking for. They were reasonably priced for what we desired. And they were so sweet and fun we were excited to work with them the moment we met them. Through the entire planning process they were completely involved and present even though I was 4 hours away. They answered all my questions and concerns and never hesitated to help. We had a blast working with them day of. On the day of the wedding it felt so good to have them there by our side. They kept us calm and on schedule. They made sure we had everything we needed and made sure they got the best pictures possible. They came early to the venue to scope out the area and see where the best spots would be to take our photos.
I just can’t say enough how much we loved them. You can absolutely bet we will be using them in the future for all of our photography needs. And I’m pretty sure they’ve won over some of our friends for when their wedding time comes!
If you want an amazing day with amazing people get ahold of Marie and John. They will not let you down.
Marie & John took great care of us from the beginning. We felt comfortable with our decision from the first meeting, and they did not disappoint. Marie was great about accommodating our busy schedules and reducing our wedding stress in every way possible--helping with the wedding day timeline, coming to my parent's house (aka the wedding venue) to scout out photo locations, and meeting with us the week before the wedding to make sure everything was ready to go.
The engagement photos turned out amazing, and the initial wedding photos are better than we had ever imagined. We framed our favorite engagement photos to display at the wedding, and give to our parents as gifts, and it was unbelievable the number of compliments that we received on all of them. Bottom line: we highly recommend.
Marie and John did such an amazing job with the wedding photos! I highly recommend them! Despite the rain on our wedding day, they both carried on with great spirits - it made my husband and I feel calm. They even took us out in the golf course for more photos and even captured a beautiful rainbow! We also got a lot of compliments from our guests on how professional they were and how they were on top of everything! As for the final photos, they are ABSOLUTELY what we hoped for - they captured all the important moments. If you are looking for great wedding photographers in the Kansas City area, Marie and John are the best team!
I would highly recommend Lininger Rood Photography . She has a genuine passion for photography and it shows through her work and the additional effort she puts in to make your special day perfect. She captured every detailed and I couldn’t have been any more happier with my photos. She even ensured the wedding flowed smoothly and our guests enjoyed and had a great time. I couldn’t have chosen a better photographer and I will only use her for all my family photos in the future. Thank you for going above what any other photographer I know would have done before, during and after our wedding. You are absolutely the best and we appreciate the time you put in to see us smile. I will forever be greatful. Thanks.
Marie and John came to Arkansas to shoot my bonus son's wedding. They created such a relaxed and comfortable environment it made the day go very smoothly. Working with 3 large and rambunctious families I can only describe the patience they display as Job like. The sneak peek they provided on the evening of the wedding (yes you read that correctly) are stunning and has me excited to see their finished product. Call them, meet with them and I promise you will book them.
Marie is flexible, easy to work with, and prompt in returning your final product! We are so happy we chose her for our engagement and wedding photos and have since used her for both maternity and newborn. She has no problem delivering the vision you have for any of your photos. Without a doubt we have found our family photographer for years to come.
We absolutely loved Marie and John! From the first time we met with Marie to engagement photos to the wedding and follow up communication it has been one of the best decisions we could have made.
After our engagement photo session, my now husband made the comment of how he thought they were so cool and wanted to go out for dinner with them. If that doesn't sound like the ideal relationship, then I don't know what is. Marie and John made us feel like friends which really helped make our day more relaxing too!
Marie was excellent at communicating with me before, during and after the wedding. I've only seen a sneak peek so far and I can't wait to get the rest of the photos because I've been beyond thrilled and obsessed with the images so far.
My grandma stressed to me the importance of getting a good photographer because photos are the only thing I have after the big day and I believe we picked one of the best duos in KC to capture the day!
We can't say enough about Marie & John! The entire planning process was so great. Marie is so good about communicating and we received our gallery back way earlier than expected. They made sure to help us plan and make time for pictures so we could get the most out of our experience with them and my family and I are so grateful! Choosing Marie & John as your photographers will be one of the best decisions you make for your big day!
The BEST photographers in KC!!!
I swear these guys almost double as wedding coordinators and photographers. Marie made our day run so smooth. She is so sweet and professional. When we met her I was a little bit nervous but she literally turned into a friend after our consultation. She would call just to check in on planning and make sure we had everything we needed for the big day. Our engagement session with her was fun and our pictures turned out great. her husband even showed up to that shoot and they really eased our minds. From the second she showed up on our wedding day, Marie was a ray of light. Making everyone laugh and helping us have a good time. Our wedding pictures were so gorgeous!!! There were things she captured that I thought were committed to memory and now I have them for a lifetime. We plan to use her for every occasion as well as refer her to all of our friends and family!!!
Marie, John, and her team are top notch. I seriously cannot recommend them enough. After my previously hired photographer went MIA, Marie calmed my nerves and made sure every detail of my special day was taken care of. She seriously went above and beyond. Marie kept in constant contact with us before the day and asked questions about details I didn't even know I needed the answers to, but ones that ended up being absolutely pertinent. She even went as far as to track down some Aleve I had packed when my groom felt a migraine coming on during the reception. Photography the day of the wedding day was organized, fun, and seamless. I can't say enough about how the photographs turned out. They are incredibly stunning and mean the absolute world to me. Marie has a gift and I feel blessed to have found not only a photographer, but also a lifelong friend.
I did not find Marie and John from the knot but they were a referral from a friend. I saw her wedding images and knew we had to get a meeting with Lininger Rood. Marie invited us to her office and from the start of our conversation, she was all about US! She is funny, sweet and her husband is so down to earth. We enjoyed every minute with them. When our wedding images came in we were blown away! We can't thank them enough for all that they did for us on our wedding day and will keep telling all our friends about how awesome they are!!!
Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! Our wedding photos turned out absolutely stunning and they more than surpassed our expectations.
I found Marie after being disappointed in our engagement photos with another photographer. Marie made the wedding planning process so smooth leading up to and after the day. She took time to get to know us as a couple beforehand and was extremely thorough during the planning process, helping me to consider things I hadn't thought of which I hugely appreciated since I planned my own wedding. Marie and John were an absolute joy to work with and made us feel like we were just hanging out with our friends the day of the wedding. Throughout the day she kept me calm even when other things became overwhelming. Afterwards she was extremely timely in getting us the photos and they did not disappoint! I was just so impressed by her professionalism and her character, but at the end of the day the most important thing was the result. Our wedding photos were breathtaking! I literally want huge prints of every single one we received. As a bride on a tight budget, I would pay 3 times over to get Marie and John again. All of our friends and family were so impressed with the photos and we would recommend their services without hesitation!
Lininger Rood Photography BOOK THEM! Marie was absolutely God sent. My husband & I did an elopement shoot and Marie made our day feel so ginormous and EXTRA SPECIAL! Every single moment she captured was breath taking. Our images are AMAZING!!!!! We thank you so so soooo much! We cannot wait to shoot with you again. God bless
Marie and John were great to work with. Pictures were awesome!
We used Marie and John to capture our engagement photos in Kansas City. They truly went above and beyond spending as much time that was needed to capture everything we wanted! We felt so comfortable with them and will forever be thankful! Lastly they can work with all budgets, you can tell they care more about their clients than the money!
Marie was so wonderful to work, not to mention affordable. We appreciate how she took time to get to know us as a couple when taking our engagement pictures. Her pictures really captured all the special moments of our big day, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!
Marie is a phenomenal photographer and such a joy to work with! She was wonderful the day of our wedding and so easy to work with. Your wedding photographer should be one you are absolutely comfortable around and who catches candid moments so, as a bride and groom, you can look back through your album and completely relive your day. Marie does JUST that and MORE! I would absolutely recommend her for any of your photography needs- thank you so much for everything, Marie!!
Marie and John were seriously life-savers on my wedding day! My original photographer was a no-show and it was such a blessing! Marie understood my initial frustration and took it all in stride. She was so go with the flow and it was exactly what we needed. I am so completely thrilled with what I have seen so far and can't wait for the final turnout! The only disappointment that I have is that I didn't hire them from the beginning!!!
Started off having a small idea and Marie turned it into my dreams! Such a skilled and amazing photographer. I've never felt so comfortable and relaxed during such a intense, emotional, and busy day. She took care of so much walked me through all the steps. Her turn around is quick and just leaves you with one hard question. Which pic is your favorite? We can't wait to continue to work with her for future family photos. Once you find a great one and she is you can never let her go!
LOVED working with Marie for my wedding. She was professional, easy to get in contact with, shot beautiful photos of our wedding, and delivered our imaged in a timely fashion. Would highly recommend her to anyone that needed a wedding photographer.
Marie and John were absolutely phenomenal to work with! My photographer cancelled on me a few months before my wedding and it was a blessing in disguise. My husband and I both fell in love with Marie during our initial consultation and knew we had to have her as our wedding day photographer. She was enthusiastic, very patient with all my questions/requests, and proactive in planning for our big day. Not to mention they are reasonably priced for the product and service they provide.
Marie and John arrived way before they were scheduled to in order to capture pictures of our wedding party getting ready. We were on a tight schedule on our wedding day, and Marie and John made the most of our time. They had visited our venue and wedding location prior to our big day and planned out where to take specific shots. Their proactive planning made our day go so smoothly.
During our ceremony, they were invisible. I was amazed at our ceremony shots because I didn't even realize at the time they had been taking pictures so close to us! Lininger-Rood continued to amaze us even after our wedding. Marie went straight to work editing, and we had access to our fully edited wedding gallery during our honeymoon!
We could not have asked for a better wedding photographer and we are so happy we chose Lininger-Rood Photography to capture our special day. Marie is very professional and a true artist. I highly recommend choosing Lininger-Rood Photography to capture your wedding day memories-you won't be disappointed!
Marie and John went above and beyond for us before, during, and after our wedding day. Marie was so helpful, offering tons of advice and answering any questions I had. They both made our wedding day stress free and worked with our budget. Our photos turned out so beautiful and we will treasure them for the rest of our lives! We would recommend them to all of our friends and family. Thank you again for capturing our special day for us! We cannot thank you enough!
My wedding was on April 5th 2014 and liningerrood photography made my day. Marie made me feel beautiful and the way she captured every detail was amazing. thank you.
Marie is an amazing photographer and we are glad we chose her to capture our special day. She is very sweet and was patient during the sit down process. The day of the wedding was captured in such a beautiful way! I still love looking at my images and feel like they were taken yesterday. Choose Lininger Rood for your wedding day...YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!
