Top 5 I am beyond excited to do this for you.
n my opinion, the best way to know if I'm the right one for you is to meet in person. My treat.
You'll discover whether we value coffee or tacos at the same level (really important) and make sure I work in a way that moves you (also really freaking important.)

If you are looking for a talented and committed photographer/designer I assure you Kara and KCM Studios will not disappoint. KCM Studios helps capture moments and memories and produces an end product with a level of care and finish that is hard to compete with.
Obsessed with Kara and her gorgeous studio!! Her space is clean and beautifully decorated. I had a blast getting my headshots done in this beautiful space. 10/10 highly recommended!
I have had the pleasure of working with Kara on two separate occasions. Both times she blew it out of the water!!!! Her attention to detail with each image is incredible. If you are looking for a photographer to capture an important moment(s) in your life, Kara is your only option.
Simply put, Kara is amazing. She's a very kind, down to earth person with a great heart. She is also a rockstar photographer and if you hire her (which you should) there is NO CHANCE you will be even remotely disappointed. Her studio is also very well maintained, clean, and very welcoming. KCM Studios is the real deal. ❤
Obsessed with Kara & her studio! Have rented from her a couple times and the process was flawless. From the time i looked up the studio information to the time I walked out of my session it was nothing but an easy process and great experience. I can’t believe I found such a great studio to shoot at with such affordable rates. She was accessible the moment I needed anything or had any questions. I strongly recommend not only renting from her but her photography services as she is crazy talented. Nothing but love for this studio and photographer!
All I can say is Kara is crazy talented and just such a joy to hangout with while doing the photo shoot. I was in awe of how gentle she was with my little one. Also how she molded him into the most adorable looks and then how much my little one just slept through it all. I would recommend her and her studio to anyone and plan on singing her praise with everyone I know. Thanks Kara for a once in a lifetime photoshoot and being able to keep these photos as a reminder of him during these first few days of life. Look forward to our year together collecting more memories together.
I hired Kara for a mentor session and am so glad I did! She is super thorough in preparing for the session, which I appreciated, to make the best use of our time together. Her knowledge is incredible, and her willingness to share and support other photographers is something you don't see every day! I would absolutely book another session with her.
Kara has been taking our family photos for a few years now. She’s the only photographer that can get my daughter to smile, a real smile!!! She captured their true personality and I am soo appreciative! Her style is real and not over exposed, but natural and beautiful. We will keep going to her for all our pics!
I have worked with Kara Payton at many events, including weddings and she is extremely friendly, professional and best of all she has a serious gift of an eye for photography. She is definitely one of the very best in Kansas City! I have hired her for personal photoshoots as well and has given me great photos to use for my social media and website. You'd be lucky to get her. She is among the very best there is, book her today before she is taken.
I used Kara’s beautiful studio for our daughters first birthday pictures and we will cherish those pictures forever! I loved her studio space so much that I’ve booked 2 other clients in February for their sessions at her studio! Kara’s done an amazing job of creating such a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere! ❤️
