Hi, I’m Aaron, a photographer based in Kansas City.

Human essence, framed in a picture

Life is made of thousands of fleeting moments. Most of which we are too busy to notice, even though that’s exactly where our human essence is hidden. As a wedding and lifestyle photographer, I’m here to capture those moments—like the look on your face when you realize you forgot the rings or the dance moves that definitely need to be remembered forever. Because while the big moments are important, it’s the little, unplanned ones that truly tell the story—and make you laugh later!
