Phil Koehler Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Athens, WI

Hi! Phil Koehler, here. I am an out-going introvert, who lives to provide a remarkable photography experience to my clients. When I'm not behind a camera, you can find me either treasure hunting at a local thrift shop or estate sale, hiking in the woods, or paddling on the Wisconsin River. I fell in love with Wedding Photography after shooting a friend's wedding back in 2017. Being able to capture the important moments for my clients, is an honor and joy that I truly cherish.

We actually came across Phil's work on another wedding website - so I want to make sure other couples using Zola see a more recent review(: Phil knocked our wedding out of the park! He captured so many special moments for us throughout the day, and was a great communicator referencing our shot list and making sure we were comfortable all day long. His wife attended and was a ton of help assisting with our large bridal party (and I've heard that's every photographer's nightmare, ha). Not only did he excel at the job, but had 3 weddings in a row during our weekend - and it did not impact an ounce of quality. (Which goes to show how good he is.) His photos were easily accessible, and he had a quick turnaround of a few weeks following our ceremony. We also used him for engagement photos, and those were an even quicker turn! So glad we found Phil and looked into his work more. Such an incredible photographer!

Wild Love Pursuit 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Athens, WI

A creative soul, a love for romance, passionate to tell your love story. I am always seeking for true connection between humans, the genuine real type of connection. I believe, at the end of the day, these true moments, even the smallest ones, are what mean the most. Weddings are filled with these fleeting moments and the fact that I get to document them, stop time and hand them to you to be remembered forever means more than you may ever know. I can't wait for our paths to cross, to hear all about your ideas and plans for the day.

We LOVED our engagement photos but our wedding photos were/are something to obsess over. She captured the whole day really really well. If there was one thing that I would change I would just want more pics of the 2 of us laughing and having big genuine smiles. Sometimes getting your pictures taken can be a little awkward so anything to help with getting those big smiles on camera helps.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process.

With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

On our wedding day, their incredible attention to detail was evident in the stunning photos they captured. They were constantly checking in with us throughout the reception to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted. As a couple who isn't always comfortable in front of the camera, Mario made us feel at ease and was able to create the exact type of photos we had envisioned. Our wedding day was truly unforgettable, and we have Once Like a Spark to thank for preserving those memories so beautifully. We would absolutely recommend them to any couple planning their big day!

Hello! I'm Erica and I am based in Minnesota and Wisconsin but travel all over! I love fun adventures, traveling to new places, meeting people and learning about their unique experiences - a big part of why I love photography! I specialize in wedding and engagement portraits and love serving my couples!

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the most wonderful wedding experience. Working with Erica from the beginning I knew she had it all taken care of. Starting off with price, she had multiple packages for all different needs and budgets. Our package included the engagement session which was a great lead into what the wedding day would be like. Erica never rushed or pushed us to do things we didn’t want to do. She was very considerate of what we wanted as well as knowing what we didn’t know we wanted! We received our engagement photos back in record time which was very helpful with sending invites out and such. The wedding day was smooth sailing. Erica arrived early and got right to work, she new exactly what she needed to get done to stay on time. I really appreciated her attention to time as well as her calming presence, I think that’s why I stayed calm too. There was nothing distracting during the ceremony, Erica and her partner were sneaky and quiet during the whole thing which I also appreciated looking back because I’ve been to weddings where the photographer sort of steals the show with distractions. As far as the rest of the day Erica knew exactly what photos had to be done and kept us on track, if not ahead of schedule! We had plans to greet all the guests at their tables and get a picture but it didn’t work out as I thought it would so Erica quickly solved the problem and had us take a group photo with ALL 200 guests and got the most awesome photo that we will remember forever. I would recommend Erica Johanna photography to anyone looking. Do you want someone organized? Done. Do you want someone with a calm demeanor? Done. Do you want someone with extreme talent for getting the most beautiful photos? Done! She does it all and I couldn’t be more happy with my choice to have her for my wedding

Bonnie Drake Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Athens, WI

I've been passionate about documenting and creating since I was a little girl running wild in the suburbs of St. Paul. I would steal my parent's film camera and take dozens (okay maybe hundreds) of blurry photos of our dog. In high school, I spent babysitting money on a polaroid and then finally my beloved point and shoot, which was my favorite accessory for a night out! I was gifted my first DSLR in my early twenties, and that changed the way I looked at the role photography played in my life. What was always a beloved hobby became my passion, and I've never been happier.

Awarded Best of Zola
Bonne was our photographer for our wedding in April 2022, and we are SO HAPPY we found her. We considered photographers that had a second shooter, but honestly didn’t feel like we missed out at all as Bonnie did such a great job. Bonnie is so nice and has a way to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. We did an engagement shoot which was a great way to know Bonnie and get some beautiful pictures for our invitations. We lived out of state at the time and Bonnie was super flexible to accommodate our schedule when we were visiting and recommended a great location. On our wedding day, Bonnie was very professional and organized which kept us on schedule while also making sure we weren’t worried about timing or about missing out on photos. We really wanted to be at our cocktail hour and she made it happen! But what really stands out is Bonnie’s eye for picking out great locations and capturing photos in the moment. The portrait shots were well framed and the candid photos really captured the emotions of the day. We snuck away with Bonnie to take some golden hour photos and they turned out so well! Bonnie had scoped out locations around our venue the day before which allowed for us to quickly sneak away to an awesome local. She is so talented! We love our photos and would recommend her to anyone!

Hi! My name is Savannah and I'm a wedding photographer located in Wisconsin (but traveling anywhere!). I believe photography is a way to return to moments otherwise passed.

Hey friend! I'm Mariah! I am a wedding photographer based in Madison, WI serving worldwide for the nostalgic lovers and those who value presence over perfection." I LOVE to travel and am more than willing to go anywhere and everywhere to capture the special seasons in your life!

There are not enough words to recommend Mariah as highly as she deserves. She hit the perfect mix of direction and fly-on-the-wall. She immediately felt like an old friend and fit in just perfectly. She is laid back but extremely present, not afraid to make posing tweaks when needed while also incredible at capturing those raw emotion moments. Mariah also hits that perfect balance between true color and dreamy in her photos, and if you get married somewhere with a gorgeous landscape, she makes sure both you and your background look perfect. I love her. She's the best. Would hire her 20x over.

  • Serves Athens, WI

Hello! My name is Brigette and I am based out of the Chicago land area, but make it my mission to travel for photography as much as possible! I love the color purple, crazy hats, funk music, & all things outdoors! Traveling is my number one passion! I LOVE connecting with couples and getting to tell their love story authentically. I like to connect my subjects with nature and use natural lighting to create breathtaking images that emphasize my love for the natural beauty we find outside every day!

Brigette Burgman Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From start to finish, Brigette's communication was efficient, organized, and personal. Her dynamic, captivating photography was full of emotion and truly captured the essence of our special day. Brigette helped us stick to the timeline by getting all the pictures we wanted, and she was incredibly flexible when I got tired during our portrait session, quickly adjusting the structure to keep me comfortable. As a planner myself, I sometimes struggle to let go and be in the moment, but Brigette's calm, kind demeanor put me at ease. The final photos exceeded our expectations - they are exactly what we had hoped for and more. We are thrilled with Brigette's services and cannot recommend her highly enough!
