I’m Jill — a Wisconsin wedding photographer with over 13 years of experience and a serious love for honest, emotional moments. I’m drawn to real connection, great light, and the kind of photos that feel alive, not overly posed or polished.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jill was fantastic to work with. She helped me feel comfortable even though I usually feel awkward posing for pictures. My husband and I had such a great experience with Jill for our engagement photos that we asked her back to photograph our wedding and we would do it again. All our photos, from both photo events, are simply stunning. She captured our energy, the scenery, the natural light, and made us look great!

Hi, I’m Paige! 🤍 You deserve beautiful, timeless images with a photographer you can trust so you can focus on what matters most: marrying the love of your life and enjoying your wedding with the people you love. My goal is to capture your day with great attention to detail so you’ll love and cherish your photos and videos forever. Capturing weddings is truly my passion, and I feel so lucky to preserve couples’ most meaningful moments.

Paige at Like Family Photography was truly incredible to work with. She captured our wedding day so beautifully. Our photos are absolutely stunning and perfectly reflect the joy and emotion of the day. Every image feels natural, heartfelt, and so “us.” Her communication throughout the entire process was fantastic. She was organized, responsive, and made everything feel seamless and stress-free. We had a unique micro wedding with multiple stops throughout the day, and she was so accommodating and flexible, which meant the world to us. We also received videography, and we could not be happier with the footage. Being able to relive our day whenever we want is such an incredible gift. Paige and her team captured not just how everything looked, but how it felt. I truly cannot recommend Like Family Photography enough. We are beyond grateful and cannot wait to work with Paige again in the future to capture more special moments in our lives!

Capturing moments, creating stories, sharing the love…is my passion. I want to be there for those surprise proposals, or on your wedding day, telling the story of your big day. I want to celebrate the moments your senior enters into adulthood, or freeze time when you are having a session with your family. I want to tell your story, that is authentically you!

As a wedding services provider, working with Photographers who do not work for me, gives me an opportunity to meet new people and witness the talents they process.

Hailey Stark Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Waupaca, WI

I am so dang excited to hear all about your love story! I've always dreamed of being able to stay home and raise my babies but still be able to create the art that burns so passionately in my heart. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me doing all the mom things. A few of my go-to activities include hiking a new spot, spending the day at my favorite beach, or camping in the pines. Truthfully, I've never said no to an adventure. You could ask me to hop a plane with you next week to the mountains and I would make it happen.

I will never stop recommending Hailey Stark Photography to everyone that I know! I don't even know where to begin. I truly have nothing negative to say about the experiences we have had with Hailey. There is no one else I would rather have had as our wedding photographer. Even with booking Hailey before we were engaged, she was so responsive to ALL of my questions and was always willing to give her expert advice. During both of our engagement sessions as well as on our wedding day, Hailey was able to work magic and take 2 people who are camera shy and give them the space and experience where we had FUN and laughed with her. For once, having pictures taken didn't feel like a chore AND we both loved the photos we received. As we left our first engagement session, my (now) husband and I said to each other that we felt like we had known Hailey for so much longer than the hour that we spent with her. The day of our wedding, Hailey was no less amazing. She was there whenever and wherever needed, even helping me secure my veil when I felt like it was becoming too loose. We haven't received our gallery yet as our wedding was just on 10/12, but I already know that we are going to love our photos because Hailey is so amazing at what she does. If I were to plan a wedding again, there is no doubt in my mind that I would choose Hailey as our photographer every time. I can't wait to have her photograph more of our life's milestone moments in the future!

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Elliot as our wedding photographer. From our very first engagement shoot to the big day itself, he was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. Elliot understood our vision perfectly every single time and made us feel completely at ease, knowing everything was in great hands. His communication was excellent. He answered every one of our (many) questions quickly and clearly, which made the entire process stress free. The final photos went above and beyond what we could’ve imagined. If you’re looking for the perfect photographer for your special day, don’t think twice: book Elliot!

I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me.

Working with Ashley was such a dream! Her attention to detail and vibes are amazing. We felt a little bit awkward during our engagement photo shoot just because we had not taken professional photos together before and Ashley was able to break the ice and keep us giggling the whole time. Do not question any of the silly things she has you do because your photos will be that much better for it. We would love to work with Ashley again in the future & cannot wait to display her work around our house!

Mark Malec Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,950
  • Serves Waupaca, WI

Mark Malec Photography is a wedding company located in West Bend, Wisconsin. Mark and Beth Malec, the owners of the company, aim to get to know each couple they work with prior to the wedding day in order to become more familiar with each couple's photographic needs and desires. This husband-and-wife team focuses on maintaining open communication throughout the planning process in order to provide accessible and transparent services. The company encourages couples to remain present and mindful on their wedding day, which enables Mark and Beth to capture genuine and natural images.

Where do we even begin? Starting with our engagement shoot, Mark and Beth made us feel so comfortable, and were so good at capturing the way we feel about each other. They have a great eye for what will make a good shot and we’re super attentive to details. They made the shoot so fun and we ended up with a great mix of formal shots and more fun/spicy shots. We had originally planned to just do our engagement shoot with them, as we were getting married out of state but when we got the proofs back, there was no question about paying the travel cost to have them capture our wedding day. They were totally on top of the planning process and really let us be creative with the shots that we wanted and what the day was going to look like. They were there for us every step of the way, and will make you feel like you can handle anything your crazy aunt or creepy family friend is going to throw your way on your day - they’ve seen it all and they play defense for you. Wedding day rolls around and they’re in full on production mode. When I say that I didn’t have to worry about a single thing on the wedding day, I mean it. They had our schedule, kept us on track, and most importantly, they kept us relaxed. I cannot stress enough how special it was to have them both there to get both angles of all of the moments - it’s not something you really think about until you see how special it is to have both sides of the first looks, walking down the aisle, and the first kiss. As my husband and I talked about the day on our way to our honeymoon a few days later, we agreed that choosing Mark and Beth was by far the greatest decision we made for our day. We loved them, and they gave us the most precious memories to cherish for ever. Their work speaks for itself, there’s no question about that, but I think the most important thing they bring is the passion they have for what they do, and I think that’s what made us trust them as much as we did. We really could not have asked for a better pair to work with, and every one in our family LOVED them. If there was any recommendation I had for future brides, it’s to let Mark and Beth be your people.

Mayah is the absolute best photographer in Chicago, and I couldn't recommend her and her team enough! Mayah was the very first vendor I booked when I began wedding planning as after I saw her portfolio I knew she would be able to capture our engagement and wedding photos exactly how we envisioned (and actually infinitely better than what we envisioned). From the first phone call with Mayah I felt confident and at ease that we was the best choice for us, and every text/email/call afterwards was an absolute joy. She is SO creative, genuine, and talented and she makes the photo experience FUN (even if you're camera shy like me and my husband :)). Her photography style seems to capture the uniqueness of each and every one of her couples as she truly takes the time to get to know them and their vision. 10000/10 recommend Mayah Lee Photography for any kind of photo needs you can imagine!

Shawna with LotusFly Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication style was organized, thoughtful, and attentive - she took detailed notes during our consultations and always followed up promptly. Most importantly, the quality of Shawna's work is fantastic, especially considering her very reasonable rates. She has a true talent for capturing emotional moments and telling the story of the day. On the wedding day itself, Shawna brought a sense of calm and kept everything running smoothly while also fading into the background. She implemented our discussed plans flawlessly and was highly professional yet so easy to work with. We could not be happier with how our photos turned out - Shawna beautifully documented all the special details and joyful memories of our wedding celebration.

Hi there, I'm Cara! I am based in south central Wisconsin and serve Wisconsin, the midwest, and beyond. I started Cara Ann Photography to capture love stories in their truest form, and with true to color timeless editing your whole story comes to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have worked with Cara for MANY years. She has been nothing but kind, professional, timely, and a great communicator. When it came time to pick someone for my wedding, the choice could not have been more clear. Although I have not celebrated my wedding day yet, my engagement shoot and communication with Cara has been a dream. After booking her for our wedding, she helped us put together a timeline for the day, communicated the different options like first looks, and talk us though what we thought we would need. She was also able to recommend videographers. She has continued to go above and beyond. Since my Fiancé and I are currently located in Ohio, time in WI is very limited. I though this would make our engagement shoot difficult to schedule. That was not the case! Cara helped pick the location and scoped it out beforehand to make sure it was perfect. She made sure to fit us in on a Sunday when we were home at 7AM even though she had a wedding the night before! Less than an hour after the shoot we got 5 sneak peak photos. The full gallery was delivered right about 2-3 weeks later! I can not wait for my wedding day and have Cara Ann Photography capture the day and for Cara to be a teammate of the Scherdin/Curry wedding. I first worked with her in 2019 when she shot my then boyfriend and I's anniversary photos. They were incredible and the experience was so fun. She allowed us to play our own music and just be ourselves. After that experience, my family and I have never used a different photographer. She shot both of my brothers senior portraits and my sibling photos. My Fiancé also coordinated with her to do a surprise proposal shoot. She immediately set up an operation to get me in front of the camera under the disguise of a couples styled shoot. When the day came, we had the worst weather. I mean -40 and blizzard. That did not stop her from coming up with plan after plan to make the shoot work. She ended up driving 30 minutes to my parents house at 6pm on December 23rd to capture the special moment, simply out of the kindness of her heart. It was perfect.
