Guiding you with care so you feel confident and look stunning as you focus on what matters most: the joy, the beauty, and the sacred beginning of your life together.
The Wedding Experience
Catholic Wedding Photographer in Kansas City
I’ll check availability and send travel estimates, package details, and full gallery links to explore—plus a link to schedule a call.
Step 01: Inquire
We’ll connect to see if it’s a fit. If you’re ready, we’ll review the contract together (short, sweet, and clear).
Step 02: Book
A month before the wedding, we’ll walk through your schedule. I’ll send examples and be available for any extra support as needed.
Step 03: Plan
I’m part fly on the wall, part gentle guide—stepping in when needed, but never interrupting what’s real and sacred.
Step 04: Wedding
Your images arrive as timeless, heartfelt art—capturing not just how it looked, but how it felt.
Step 05: Gallery
the process
We’ll design a custom layflat album with your favorite images—a timeless heirloom so you don’t have to lift a finger (or forget to make one later).
Custom Album
You'll have me as your dedicated photographer from start to finish – I photograph every moment myself rather than using associate shooters.
From planning support to expert posing, my experience is something you can trust.
With deep respect for the Mass and your vows, I capture what’s sacred with care.
I lead without pressure, helping you feel both at ease and absolutely stunning.
What Makes Jackie Marko Photography Different
These are some of my favorite places, but I’m honored to travel wherever you choose to begin your sacramental journey together.
Santa Fe / Washington D.C.
Chicago / Seattle / New York
Kansas City / St. Louis / Boston
While I'm based in Kansas City, I also travel to photograph Catholic weddings.
Most parts take anywhere from 15 minutes to 1.5 hours—plus travel time between locations. It all depends on your priorities, and I’m here to help you figure that out. I’ll guide you through it and provide a sample timeline so you can start building a schedule that fits your day and keeps everything flowing smoothly.
How long should we allot for X part of the day?
Think about what parts of your day you want documented—from getting ready to the final dance. The more moments you want covered, the more hours you'll likely need.
10 hours is generally the safe bet with Catholic weddings. Full day coverage is recommended if you would like your exit captured! Still unsure? Let’s talk through your timeline together and find the best fit.
How many hours will we need?
A second shooter is great if you want coverage in two places at once—like separate getting ready spots, strict ceremony rules, or full cocktail hour and reception coverage.
