Madison wedding photographer

Everything you need to know about your Wisconsin & Madison wedding photographer

If you’re anything like me, you’ve already been all over Pinterest pinning all those perfectly romantic, joyful, emotive, breathtaking photos (to the board you’ve been keeping private for the last 2 years) and might be a little overwhelmed with all of the possibilities. Don’t worry, I’ve got you.

After photographing close to 100 weddings in Madison, Milwaukee, Green Bay, Sheboygan, and beyond, I’m not just a photographer. I’m a resource as you plan your wedding, your personal hype woman, and a steady, light-hearted presence on your wedding day who can roll with just about anything life throws at us.

On your wedding day, I want you focused on enjoying your day, not on what pictures should be taken. Let me worry about capturing your moments. Let me worry about the light and the angles and the shot list. By the time I show up on your wedding day, I know every single detail that's important to you. So your biggest worries? Not happy-crying off all your mascara and tending to your sore ribs after all the laughter!

story time

how you met

the proposal

honeymoon dreams

Let's do this! The first step to work together is to set up a time to chat and make sure we're the perfect fit! I'm going to be spending more time with you than almost any other wedding pro on your big day, so I want you to be sure I'm the person you want capturing your day!

THE NEXT STEP

Step No. 2

It's official!! Time to make planning a little more fun!

Vendors

Timelines

preserving memories

Once your date is officially reserved, I'll send over a few goodies and resources to help you prepare for the big day. You'll feel some of that wedding planning stress start to melt away, and I'll be the human version of the dancing emoji!

THE NEXT STEP

Step No. 3

The engagement session. Trust me: you actually ARE "picture people."

Location Ideas

Sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. The most important thing is to get you in front of my camera before the big day so you can feel comfortable, confident, and care-free on your wedding day!

Traditions

I'll send over a questionnaire about one month before the wedding to get specifics. Basically, after your final consultation, I'll know every single detail that's important to you - you don't have to even think about photos on your day.  Just show up, get married, and drink champagne!

Ready for

happy tears

belly laughs

cutting a rug

Your wedding day goes lightning fast. You'll arrive at the end of the day with sore cheeks, mascara a little worse for wear, and feeling even closer to your most important humans. I'll be in the background for a lot of the day, but dang - we're going to have some fun during posed portraits, too!

THE NEXT STEP

Step No. 6

Grab the tissues!
Your images are ready!

If I could bottle the emotions from a wedding day, I'd be a millionaire. But your images are about the closest you can get!  From your first scroll through your digital gallery to flipping through your heirloom album on your 50th anniversary, these images are going to give you all the feels!
