Pictures you'll cherish forever.
Capturing weddings, seniors
and families in Kansas City
Meet the Photographer
Hey, I'm Ian.
I’m a husband, dad, pastor at a local church in Olathe and Kansas City photographer specializing in weddings, seniors and families.
My goal is to make the experience feel comfortable and natural while creating photographs that feel personal, meaningful and worth keeping for years to come.
Capturing memories that matter.
From wedding days to senior year to the everyday beauty of family life, I use my experience to help people feel comfortable, keep the process easy, and create natural photographs that feel genuinely personal.
Wedding Photography
The best wedding photographs don’t just show how the day looked—they bring back how it felt. I’ll capture the meaningful portraits, the people you love, and the real moments happening in between.
Senior Photography
Senior photos should feel like you—your personality, your interests, your style and this unique season of your life.
Family Photography
A mix of the portraits everyone wants and the natural moments that show what your family feels like right now.
My approach: relaxed, natural, and meaningful.
You don’t need to know exactly how to pose or what to do in front of the camera. I’ll provide clear direction when you need it and leave room for the real interactions that make your photographs feel like you.

Ian Rothell Photography did an awesome graduation friendship shoot for me! Absolutely loved it! I am very nervous and can be awkward in front of a camera, but in minutes Ian had us laughing and looking fabulous. I would recommend him to anyone!! My friend and I talk about how we will always remember how much fun we had at the shoot! AND he had our photos on time and they looked awesome. Love, love, love!!
