The minute I met Jen, I knew I wanted to work with her. She was on the upper end of my price point…read morefor photographers, but she is worth every penny. If there is one thing I appreciate in working with professionals, it's those that are detail oriented and prepared--Jen is both! I didn't have to worry one bit. Rain or shine, I knew my pictures were going to look amazing. It's not every day that you meet a photographer as prepared and professional enough to have galoshes and 10 black umbrellas in their car just in case of rain. She even brings her own lighting if need be. What I especially love is how organized she was about the wedding timeline. Snap snap snap, a few jokes to get great laughs and beautiful smiles, and then move on to the next set! There is no dilly-dally going on but it all felt very natural. She gets the shot and moves on to another beautiful pose. This made it especially wonderful for the family shots. We lined up, added and subtracted people--and snap snap snap--we were done! We were able to enjoy most of our cocktail hour and appetizers because of it! AMAZING. Okay, so lets talk about her personality. She is so cool! Easy going, makes you feel good behind the camera. You can tell that she enjoys everyone's unique personalities and she knows how to make that come out in her pictures. Jen even took extra pictures of us during our reception even though she wasn't being paid for that part of the wedding. She captured some great speech moments and tears. I am so grateful to have met such a cool artist--and advocate for people, creativity, uniqueness and just a good person! I would recommend her to anyone who wants to look and feel beautiful in their photos and not have to worry about a thing on their wedding day!

Jennifer shot our engagement and wedding photos over the course of three days. We literally CANNOT…read morebe happier with both the process of working with her as well as the ultimate outcome of the hundreds of photos that she took and edited. She was a joy all the way around, but also knew how to assert (our) needs during those fun moments of family-wrangling for portraits. UPDATE: Only in speaking to other recently-wed couples did we realize the truly exceptional level of service that we got from Jennifer: she had our proofs out to us in a matter of weeks (not months, like the experience of some of our friends), and we still could not be happier with all the memories she captured! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about our experience with Jennifer, but the opinion is simple: she was amazing, fun, professional and took GREAT photos!

Kara did an amazing job with my professional headshot-style photo shoot…read more I wasn't even sure what I was looking for, so she took some time at the beginning to discus the traditional versus "new wave" style of business pictures. With LinkedIn and social media being such a big deal now a days, you better look profesh, and you better look good while you're doing it. She made everything stress free for me and guided me through the process. I'm not used to professional pictures, but she made me feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Tried on some different outfits with some different backgrounds at her studio (which is lovely and nicely decorated) The day was painless and casual, she had a quick turnaround process and gave me a stunning final result, including a great editing process for some general blemish removal, etc. Would highly recommend Kara not just for her professional photography skills, but her personality and her ability to make you feel at ease. She handles family portraits, weddings and adorable baby shoots, too!

She took our maternity photos and even when we were shooting the photos & she'd show me a sneak peek of the back of the camera, I was floored at the lighting and beauty she captured (made me feel way prettier than I think I really am!) and those were the raw images! I was so happy with our maternity shoot, and can't wait to see the pictures of our newborn boy!!! She is the BEST!

Stacy Kaat not only knows how to shot a good head shot, but knows how to keep things comfortable…read moreand relaxing while doing it. My headshots - one conventional and one 'dynamic' (to fit the mood of my freelance videography business) - showed the range that Stacy has as a headshot photographer and were exactly what I needed to promote my 'personal brand'. Beforehand, Stacy sat down with me to discuss what I wanted to convey in my photographs and also helped me choose the right outfit to match the vision we had of my headshots. She kept the whole experience calm & fun, and I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. I highly recommend Stacy for anyone looking to have a high quality headshot done. On a side note, Stacy is also a great networker and a wealth of knowledge on small business planning and marketing. I learned a lot just chatting with her in between photos.

No words can truly describe how amazing Laura was on our wedding day…read more We met Laura at a wedding show in Milwaukee and our personalities just clicked. Laura was there throughout the entire wedding planning process, offering answers to an of my random questions including timing for the day of, vendors, etc. Laura ran our rehearsal confidently and made sure we had everything just the way we wanted it. After the rehearsal, she even loaded up all of our venue décor for the wedding day so we didn't have to worry about it the day of. There were things I even had given her that I had no clue how they'd be used and she utilized them better than I ever could have imagined. On the day of the wedding, Laura was simply incredible. I had a blast at my own wedding as did all my loved ones that, without Laura, would have had so much more to be concerned with. Laura took care of everything from the ceremony to the very last call. She worked with the florists to set up the venues and it looked absolutely perfect. Better than I could have ever even imagined. Anyone who hasn't enjoyed their own wedding, clearly hasn't had a Laura by their side. I didn't worry about a thing because Laura had it all under control (even the 3 one-minute mother-son dances)! At the end of the night, we left with just our card box and marriage license and Laura took care of the rest. Laura, we cannot thank you enough for everything. You were a HUGE part of why our wedding was everything we could have ever imagined and more. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Everyone deserved a Laura on their wedding day

My hair and makeup was done perfectly, and I felt so comfortable the entire time. I would highly recommend this for any bride or woman looking for something a little different compared to a traditional boudoir photo shoot. The teamwork the duo showed made the day even better and I knew the results would show that! So happy I got out of my comfort zone and went for it! I would recommend this to anyone!

We got SO many compliments on the flowers and to top it all off they lasted TWO weeks after our wedding. That's right TWO weeks!

We always have many more "good ones" to select because of the skill and professionalism of their staff. Also, they are so reasonable compared to many other photography places, which can charge thousands of dollars, for senior pictures??!! That is crazy.

Someone always calls or emails back if a message is left. I cannot say enough good about this place and can recommend it wholeheartedly.
