Sharaya Mauck Photography

We used Sharaya for our wedding photographer and to help design our wedding day album. I did not feel that I was creative enough to make something that was worthy of our wedding album, so I went to Sharaya for help. She walked me through each step of the process and showed me what my different options could look like. The digital preview was amazing and I cannot wait for the album to show up. I would recommend Sharaya since she is great to work with and her quality of work is very impressive.

Sharaya was phenomenal to work with!! We couldn’t of picked a better photographer to capture our day! Thank you, Sharaya for capturing such special times in our lives & making us feel even more special!

Sharaya Mauck is professional and does amazing work. Sharaya came highly recommended to me by my Wedding Coordinator and after looking over her website and seeing her work I knew she was going to be a good choice for what I was looking for. Sharaya was such a joy to work with from the very beginning. Starting with our engagement photos, several emails/calls/ meetings in between, and then our Wedding Day. She made us feel very comfortable and we trusted her with our big day! We LOVE our pictures and have received so many compliments from friends and family on how beautiful they are. Her enthusiasm for photography shines. She also sent us several notes and even gifts in the mail which was such a thoughtful and personal touch that you don't see very often. Thanks for capturing our day perfectly and helping us have these memories to look back on forever. :) - Kristin & Nick Darsch

I can’t say enough about Sharaya Mauck Photography! She was always prompt with getting back with us, so enjoyable to work with! If you are debating on what photographer to choose, stop looking! Her work is beautiful! We had such a wonderful experience.

Sharaya is nothing short of amazing. She captured our engagement session and wedding day perfectly. She is organized, punctual, and literally the sweetest human you'll ever meet. Our photos turned out better than I could ever imagine, and I can't even count how many compliments we have received on them! If you are a bride looking for a photographer in the KC area, Sharaya is your go-to girl!

There are not enough great things to say about Sharaya!! From the first time we met up with her when trying to find the best fit for us to our last meeting with her picking out our wedding pictures and album. We could not have asked for a better photographer to perfectly capture our wedding day. I would HIGHLY recommend Sharaya. Not only do you receive amazing quality pictures but she is the absolute sweetest person and you get everything back so quick!!! One of the best choices we made for our wedding was picking Sharaya as our photographer!

Sharaya is AMAZING! She was/is everything I could ask for in a photographer. Her work is incredible. She truly knows how to capture your love story in her own way. She made my husband and I feel extremely comfortable during our engagement photos and on our wedding day. She will always laugh with you! I know that Sharaya had our best interest at heart throughout the whole process. I believe she works hard to make sure her clients are beyond satisfied with their photos that will last a life time! Sharaya's customer service is also top notch. She is great at communicating and always responds in a timely manner. On our wedding day she was very timely with the schedule and made sure we got every photo we could dream of. We could not have asked for a better photographer! Thank you Sharaya!!!

Sharaya is INCREDIBLE! During the wedding planning process, the photographer was extremely important to us because pictures will be what we look back on 50 years from now. Sharaya is so talented in capturing the moments we can now keep forever. It was after our consultation with her that we 100% knew we wanted her to be a part of our wedding day. She has this way of making you feel like you've known her personally for years-- we never felt like clients. After our consultation, she made us so excited to be married because SHE was so excited for us. Sharaya is so genuine and her talent is incredible. She went above and beyond our expectations. She was quick in delivering the photos to us, we had a TON of photos, and everything was so beautiful and high quality. She is also so organized!! She thinks of everything and really helps couples plan their wedding! What a blessing when planning gets chaotic! Guests of the wedding continue to compliment our photographer almost 2 months after the wedding. She made us feel so comfortable and that was also so important to us. You can tell she genuinely cares about her couples and I couldn't imagine a better photographer to have worked with. Highly, highly recommend!! Thank you SO much for everything, Sharaya! We are so thankful for you!

I could not have asked for a better photographer for our daughter's wedding. She was timely, organized, great with the grandparents and very fun with the wedding party. The photographs of that entire day are insanely beautiful!

My wife and I had a great time with Sharaya at our wedding. The photos came out incredible and she has always been available to answer questions. I would recommend her to anyone looking for premium photography.

Sharya is the most INCREDIBLE photographer! She keeps it fun and easy the entire day. We have so many amazing pictures, we can barely decide which ones we are going to hang because we love them all!! We will be using her for all future photo needs. Sharaya listens and nails down the details of what you want and then totally brings it to life. We adore her!

There are not enough words to even describe how amazingly talented Sharaya is. Our wedding photos are unbelievably gorgeous. When we show our photos to people, they are literally taken aback by how gorgeous they are. Aside from being insanely talented, Sharaya provides top notch customer service and runs the business side of things very efficiently which is also extremely important when hiring vendors. Sharaya was quick to respond to any communication. I like that she sets a limit for the number of weddings she books, so you get the attention you deserve as a bride and groom by someone who is not overwhelmed and over booked. She provided our edited images in a very timely manner. Also, Sharaya is SO organized. She really thinks of EVERYTHING. Before your wedding she helps you hammer out a timeline for everything and sends you questionnaires and checklists to make sure she gets all the shots you would ever want, need, and hope for. There are so many things I wouldn't have thought of and would've probably missed out on if it weren't for her sending those. The day of the wedding, her and the second shooter had all of the information with them and made sure to capture all the shots we requested. Sharaya had great suggestions on where to take photos, how to pose, and just how to get the all around perfect photos. She also has some of the best equipment there is. The second shooter she used was also awesome! Booking Sharaya to capture your day is something you will be forever grateful for!!

From the very first time we met with Sharaya we knew we had to book her. We met with several photographers, but it always felt like a business meeting and we didn't leave feeling like we met someone we wanted to spend 10+ hours with. If you are looking for someone who will make you and your friends, family, and guests feel relaxed around a camera then Sharaya is your girl. She was so flexible and understanding with us (I'm terrible at emailing back) and really helped with planning our timeline/photo locations! Our photos are bright, airy, and timeless. The best advice I got while wedding planning was that your wedding photos are an investment, because when all the craziness settles it is all you will have left! I couldn't be more thankful to have found Sharaya. She helped us capture our best memories.

We love our engagement and wedding photos by Sharaya! She is so easy to work with and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. Sharaya does amazing things with the lighting and has so many unique touches that make her photos unforgettable! I would recommend her as a professional photographer to anyone getting married!

I am SO glad I found Sharaya on TheKnot! She was an absolutely fabulous photographer to work with from start to finish. Not only is she incredibly talented as a photographer, but she truly wants to capture all of the special moments throughout your big day. She took the time to meet with me and to get my feedback on what I was looking for in a photographer. She was always organized, knowledgable, and just simply fun to work with! She emailed me our finished photos a few weeks ago and I am still going through all of them. She took so many amazing shots, it's hard to narrow them down! I have had so many family and friends compliment me on how gorgeous our photos turned out. I would HIGHLY recommend any future bride to use Sharaya to capture their big day!

Sharaya was phenomenal to work with! In addition to our wedding photographs, she also took our engagement photos. She was friendly and professional throughout both our engagement photos and wedding day, and we both felt comfortable immediately with her. Sharaya helped to guide us through all of our decisions during the planning process, and was always available to us for questions and recommendations (even with the new arrival of her precious daughter). On wedding day, Sharaya and Sara, her second photographer, were amazing. It was so fun to look at our photographs and see moments captured that we weren't even aware of - for example, the guests at our tables prior to our grand entrance. Everything was perfect...we wouldn't have changed a thing!

SharayaMauck Photography was absolutely phenomenal!! My husband and I loved working with Sharaya, after our first experience with Sharaya we both felt like we had known her for years. Her service was so genuine and professional, you can tell that Sharaya truly loves her profession and her photos show it too!! We couldn't say enough great things about her service!

Sharaya was incredible. She was extremely responsive, helpful with the timeline and customizing our package and her photos are creative and unique while still elegant and traditional. I absolutely love her work and would highly recommend her to anyone! Everyone who has seen photos of our wedding has commented on what a great photographer we must have had!

We had a wonderful experience with Sharaya and would recommend her to anyone. Her pictures were beautiful, the way she conducts her business is very professional, and prices are competitive. We hired to Sharaya to take our engagement and wedding pictures. She made us feel comfortable and at ease during both the engagement session and on our wedding day. We asked Sharaya to pick locations for pictures and she really has a knack for finding great backdrops that you would never think of. We loved working with Sharaya and grew to value and trust her opinion. She made our wedding day so special and we were happy to share the experience with her.

Sharaya was a joy to work with! She has a bubbly personality. Sharaya put my daughter and son-in-law at ease, while maintaining a professional atmosphere. Her product and services are of the highest quality which is what originally led us to her. She came with very high recommendations from our coordinator and other reputable vendors!

When my husband and I were looking for a wedding photographer, we knew instantly that we wanted Sharaya to photograph this special time in our life. Her talent is undeniable, and her style and eye for detail is one-of-a-kind. Sharaya is incredibly sweet, personable, thoughtful, organized, hardworking and professional. The list could go on and on. We felt SO comfortable in front of the camera with her, and she was hands-down our favorite vendor for our wedding. Our engagement and wedding photos completely wow'ed us, our friends and our family. We were all left speechless! We are so impressed with the emotion and detail that she captured in each photo. We are so thankful that we have these amazing photos that tell our wedding day story for years to come. Booking a wedding photographer is one of the most important things you will do for your wedding. When the music turns off, the food and cake are gone, and everybody leaves, all you will have are your photos and memories. Trust Sharaya for your photographs and to be there for every important moment. We are so glad we did!!

You will be sure to be pleased with your photos. Your wedding photos will make you think your photos were coming directly from a magazine. She captures the day by the moments and simply tells a story of the best day ever, seamlessly. You look at your pictures and they simply leave you speechless. What started out as a venue suggestion as a photographer, hands down was the right decision. Thank you Sharaya!

When we saw Sharaya's work we knew she was the one we had to chose. We live in Florida and were not very familiar with different photo locations. She was a big help suggesting different areas to take pictures around Kansas City for our engagement and wedding day. She captured every moment of the wedding perfectly and we will always cherish her photos. She always made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. On the wedding day she was running around capturing everything and was constantly smiling and having fun. The turn around time to get the photos was very quick. I can't wait until we get to work with Sharaya again. Do yourself a favor and book Sharaya.

Sharaya was amazing to work with. She made the day easy and a well thought out timeline. We loved working with her and can't wait to see the pictures!

Oh my goodness- booking Sharaya was THE best wedding decision we made! Not only is she incredibly sweet and easy to work with, but she is extremely talented and thoughtful with her work. I truly cannot put into words about how over the moon I was about having the chance to have someone as talented as her shoot my dream wedding! I was ready to review Sharaya after we got our engagement photos back- because they were perfect and the experience was wonderful! Numerous times throughout the wedding planning process, I reached out to Sharaya with questions or comments- her responses were incredibly timely, even with her busy schedule. Our families have a few divorces and she was very attentive to this and made everyone feel comfortable during our wedding. In fact, MULTIPLE family and friends at our wedding made comments about Sharaya like, "She is so creative with her shots" or "She is constantly capturing every detail and moment- I am so impressed". Never once did I question if she would miss capturing a specific shot or anything like that- Sharaya is SO on top of everything. I have ZERO regrets about my experience with her. I am 10000% thrilled with our wedding photos and know that I will look back in 30 years and still think they are timeless. In fact, the venue is already asking to use her shots from the wedding for their marketing material! My best advice- go book Sharaya, and do it now- she will book up!

Sharaya is the BEST! Not only is she the cutest and sweetest thing in the world, but she is so good at her job. She makes you feel special and beautiful even when you are dripping in sweat. I loved everything about our experience with her. So thankful for what she did for us and how accommodating she was. You would be silly to use anyone else.

Wow. Seriously one of the greatest decisions I made for my wedding day was hiring Sharaya! She is a really sweet person and is incredible at what she does. She made the wedding party and I feel so comfortable and is great at direction! It was nice to let her run the show leading up the ceremony - I feel like we got all of the pictures we wanted in an organized and fun way. She helped out a ton in the planning process and helped make the day run so smoothly. We had a great time and a lot of fun all day with Sharaya - we can't wait to see our photos!

Sharaya is seriously the best photographer in Kansas City! I met with several photographers for our wedding and she stood above and beyond the rest in so many ways. First of all, she is a complete sweetheart. She is so easy to work with! She is very professional and prompt in her communication and with her photos. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, we just loved spending time with her. Our entire wedding party loved her and felt so comfortable around her. This is a really important person to get along with because you will be with them your entire wedding day. We were so blessed to have Sharaya around us all day. She is just a constant joy! Second, she works her booty off! My husband made so many comments on our wedding day about how hard Sharaya and her second photographer were working. They captured absolutely everything and NEVER stopped taking pictures. It was incredible. Lastly, her work speaks for itself. She is incredibly talented and her pictures are STUNNING! We were more than happy with them! She got every single detail, all the photos we asked her too, and so many natural shots of us, our family, and our friends during our special day. She seriously captured everything perfectly and beautifully. She is so creative and her photos have a true artistic flair. We can’t even begin to pick my favorites because they are all so perfect. We are more than happy with all the photos she took. We have had so many friends and family comment on how beautiful and unique our photos are. Sharaya has a true gift and she will capture your special day PERFECTLY!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer! From her easy going attitude to her loving and thoughtfulness approach to every pose we felt like we were family. Every penny we spent was beyond worth it, because every picture we got was magazine perfect!

Book Sharaya. That’s the best wedding advice you’ll get. She is absolutely the best. We did a lot of research before booking a photographer and knew early on that finding the right photographer was one of the most important things to both of us. We are so extremely happy with our wedding photos that I’m having a hard time being productive – I can’t stop looking at them! She captured everything we could have asked her to and more. Every shot is so beautiful. Sharaya is very friendly and it was never like being around a stranger. We felt completely comfortable in front of her and the camera, so our photos look natural and we look genuinely happy. She also photographed our engagement shoot, and we were equally happy with the quality of those pictures. She is thoughtful and was helpful throughout the wedding planning process, working with me to come up with an itinerary and knowing locations in Kansas City for our photo shoots. Our wedding pictures make me feel beautiful and are the perfect representation of our wedding. I honestly believe that she is the best out there.

My Fiance and I are absolutely in love with the outcome of our engagement photoshoot! The photos captured by Sharaya are absolutely breathtaking!!! My Fiance and I are highly impressed by the quality of the images taken. Sharaya is an incredibly talented photographer who knows how to capture those "special" moments! We traveled from TX to KC to have our engagement shoot and didn't know what photographer to choose, but by the grace of god he led us to Sharaya.. and for that we are truly thankful! :) I would highly recommend those in KS to select Sharaya as their photographer because she's absolutely phenomenal! Thank you Sharaya :)

Sharaya was amazing! She made picture taking fun and was one of our best memories of our special day. She captured moments I missed and moments I couldn't recognize. Her perspective, attention to detail and passion for photography make her one of the best photographers in the country. We are incredibly grateful and fortunate to have been one of her clients.

Sharaya truly goes above and beyond to make sure you get more than you could have imagined. I have gotten so many compliments on my photos and look forward to having them for years to come. I couldn't have asked for a better person to capture my special day.

Sharaya was AMAZING!!! She is extremely talented and so wonderful to work with. We have had so many compliments on our wedding photos. Hands down... she was our favorite vendor and we are so glad we chose her to capture our special day.

So many great photos! Sharaya strives to get the perfect shot and she captured so many for our winter wedding! We used Sharaya for our engagement and and our wedding photos and she has such a fantastic eye and is great with the camera. Sharaya spent time getting to know my husband and I as well as our vision for the wedding so she could best capture our special day. She makes you feel natural as she is taking photos so they do not look too staged. She also has a bubbly and happy personality, which you can't help but smile when she's around! The hardest part was picking the photos to print because there were so many great ones! One of my favorite things about how Sharaya shot our wedding day is during the reception she was in the crowd getting party shots of everyone dancing and having fun! Sharaya posts all of the photos online for easy viewing and will share the files on a USB. She created beautiful, high quality albums for us, which I am so happy I ordered. It was the most special day of our lives and I will always be able to relive almost every moment through the beautiful photos Sharaya captured.

I offer my highest recommendation to anyone considering using Sharaya for any occasion that they wish to capture. My wife and I had a destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico at the El Dorado Royale Resort, and hired Sharaya to capture our wedding week. I typically don't like having my picture taken, but Sharaya made us feel extremely comfortable, and the finished product was perfect. Having someone who was not only knowledgable in regards to photography but extremely passionate was very comforting in knowing we were in good hands. She is truly a master of her craft. I am very thankful that she captured our wedding.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was working with Sharaya! My husband Ben and I are from Minnesota and hired her for our destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Sharaya was so easy to communicate with, very professional and an absolute sweetheart. Although Ben and I had never actually met Sharaya (other than our Skype sessions) before we arrived in Mexico, it was so easy to work with her and she made us feel SO comfortable. Lastly, and most importantly, our photos turned out absolutely amazing- seriously, everyone is so impressed with them. Sharaya is amazing!

After getting engaged, I knew I had to find the perfect photographer, this was one of my top priorities. Sharaya will not disappoint! As some of the reviews mentioned below, she makes it a very personal experience. At our initial visit, I remember talking about Chris and I for the first 20 minutes before going into different package options. She is also very detail oriented and organized. Most wedding vendors I reached out to were not the most responsive, Sharaya was responsive and attentive. My husband wasn't to thrilled about taking engagement photos but afterwards he said it was very comfortable and fun this was because of Sharaya's coaching/personality. You can't go wrong...she did an amazing job and we are excited to have our album and photos for years to come.

Sharaya was an outstanding photographer!! She was incredibly helpful, relaxing and fun on our wedding day and she made my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable. It was easy to see that she was working hard to help us make our day perfect. The pictures came out better than I could have imagined and we were SO thrilled with each one!!! I highly recommend her to any couple out there searching for a wedding photographer!!

Sharaya has an amazing ability to capture the joy at a wedding. We will cherish forever the expressions and moments she captured at our son's wedding! Sharaya's exuberant personality is contagious and is reflected in her awesome photographs. I would highly recommend Sharaya to any prospective bride and groom!

Sharaya is awesome! I highly recommend hiring her as your photographer for your special day, it isn't something you will regret. She snapped so, so many pictures of our special day, I have no idea how I'm supposed to chose which ones our my favorites. Sharaya had a lot of great ideas, and worked with us on what we were visualizing for our special day. The pictures turned out AMAZING! I'm so glad we spent the money to get these awesome pictures that we will cherish forever. I can't say enough good things about Sharaya and her professionalism, creativity, and photography. I would highly recommend her and her work to anyone looking for a photographer to capture all the special moments of their big day!

We used Sharaya as our photographer for our engagement session. She was awesome! We are having a destination wedding so we decided to use the resorts photographer for our actual wedding but do keep in mind Sharaya is willing to travel!I highly recommend Sharaya for your engagement and wedding photography needs. She knows what photographs well and gets inspired in the moment. She captured absolutely beautiful photos, which has been worth every penny!

It was such a pleasure working with Sharaya! She has such a positive and bubbly personality so it was a joy working with her. My husband and I were recommended to Sharaya by a coworker of mine. After looking at her website and video about herself, I knew I wanted her to capture our special day for us. Sharaya's quality of photography is absolutely stunning! I have been so happy with all of our pictures and I can't stop looking at them! We trust Sharaya and her talent and we were always open to doing some creative night shots! I'm so happy with our decision as hiring Sharaya as our photographer. She is such a caring and genuine person and you will see how much she cares about the details and the little things after hiring her. I would HIGHLY recommend Sharaya for any type of photography!

Sharaya was an absolute dream to work with I don't know how I got so lucky with her as a photographer! My photos were stunning, she was amazing my friends and family cannot get over how beautiful my photos turned out! Just looking at my photos takes me right back to that moment in time, how much better does it get than that! Book Sharaya you will be so pleased you did!

We are so happy with our engagement pictures from Sharaya! If our wedding was local, we would so have her do them! Our experience was better than expected, she is a joy to work with and the photos were phenomenal!

I do not know where to start with reviewing how amazing Sharaya is! She has such a gift and is so talented with always finding the best angle or ensuring that you get the wedding pictures you always envisioned! We initially met with her after I saw her amazing photos on her website and I was worried she might be out of our budget, but after looking and reviewing MANY other photographers, Matt and I could not imagine anyone else doing our pictures. She is very easy to work with, organized and made us both feel so comfortable during our engagement and wedding photos. I cannot imagine having anyone else take our photos and we have received endless compliments about our beautiful pictures.

Sharaya Mauck and Sharaya Mauck photography was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. She was professional, fun and organized. Not only did she take the most amazing pictures I've ever seen, but she collaborated with the wedding coordinator and DJ to keep us and the wedding on schedule. The pictures were delivered in a timely fashion and were amazingly beautiful. 10 out of 10 stars.

Our photos turned out better than we ever could've imagined. They truly are a depiction of all the love felt and memories made on our day. Thank you!

We are so happy we found Sharaya and worked with her for our wedding/ engagement pictures! We both are so thrilled with how the pictures turned out, we truly could not have dreamed of having photographs as beautiful as what she gave us. I would highly recommend Sharaya. She was so wonderful to work with, is extremely talented, and she really does go the extra mile to give you spectacular photos to remember your special day. You will not be disappointed!!

Our daughter's wedding was in July of 2015. Before the wedding she told us the most important thing to her were the pictures because that is what she would have to look back on forever! So, she did her research and found the perfect photographer, Sharaya Mauck. Sharaya took her engagement and wedding pictures. These pictures are truly breathtaking! I cried when I first saw the wedding pictures. They are truly perfect and the memories they provide will last a lifetime! Sharaya is both fun and professional to work with! There will be no disappointment using her as your photographer! We love you and your work, Sharaya! Thank you from the bottom of our heart!

All the wonderful things I have to say about Sharaya would not be able to fit within this review, THAT'S HOW AMAZING SHE IS!!!!! I'm superrrrrr picky about photography, since I loving taking pictures myself, but I had known years before I was even engaged that I wanted Sharaya as my wedding photographer because her photos consistently amazed me! She is so genuinely caring and was extremely helpful in every aspect of our wedding planning! Without her, I don't know how I would've been able to create the wedding of my dreams! Her talent and eye through a camera lens is so artistic, yet simple and classic, and she is seriously the nicest, sweetest person! Sharaya truly is on your side through the whole process, cheering you on and helping you in any and every way possible. She was always, always there for us! We loved all the vendors she recommended, and all the products she offers are very well put together. I love you Sharaya!!! Thank you for giving us the blessing of viewing our memories in such a beautiful way! I'm so thankful for you!

Sharaya, was absolutely fabulous! She is one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met. She did a wonderful job on our engagement photos and wedding photos. :) I would recommend her in a heart beat. Our wedding was in Joplin, MO and she did an amazing job adapting to a new place and location she had never been to. You would have never known it was her first Joplin wedding. My family, husband, and I were all SOO happy with our photos. Love her!

Hiring Sharaya was A) a NO BRAINER and B) one of the BEST decisions I made when planning my wedding! I found her by simply googling wedding pictures held at my venue. The minute I came across one of her photos (out of the hundreds of others I looked at), I knew she was the photographer for me. The first time I met her, I felt like I was talking to one of my best girlfriends. She truly cared about my love story, every detail of my wedding, and how I wanted my photos to come out. I of course had no idea what I was doing, so she helped and guided me along the way. She is professional, detail oriented, and personalizes everything (seriously I think she sent me 2 or 3 gifts in the mail!). My photos look like they are out of a fairy tale - seriously, who's wedding was that? Was that me?! My family can't stop talking about them and I can't stop staring at them. They are absolutely 100% what I wanted and are perfect. Thank you Sharaya!!

Sharaya Mauck Photography was the best choice we could have made. Sharaya's attention to detail was perfect. The quality of her work has such a light, fresh and unique feel. She was very personal and asked in depth questions to get to know us. I enjoy looking through my engagement and wedding photos frequently. She did a perfect job at capturing us in the moment on our day. Thanks so much!

Our daughter and Son in law married May 2, 2015. A few months have passed since that very special day, and what is left are great memories and the most gorgeous photos!! The important things to note on this review are: Sharaya is very professional yet extremely nice. You feel like she has been your friend for years! Sharaya and her assistant have tons of energy and eager to please. Most importantly are the beautiful photos she takes that will last a lifetime. Sharaya is fantastic! We have so many photos to prove it! Thank You So Much Sharaya!
