Hi, I’m Kelsey! I am a wedding photographer! I am obsessed with dogs. I will never not acknowledge a dog near me by saying “puppers”. It is what it is. I would 100% rather be on the beach somewhere with palm trees. I am constantly daydreaming about being in the tropics. I love the color black. If we work together, there is a high chance that will be my outfit color of choice.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey was so easy and fun to work with. She had so many great ideas for different photos and was so easy to communicate with. Our wedding and engagement pictures turned out way better than I could have ever asked for. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs engagement, wedding or even family photos done.

Hello! My name is Brook! I am the owner and lead photographer of Forever Frozen Photography. Thank you for checking out my page! Let's jump right in! I have an amazing 4 year old son and my husband and I are newly married as of November 2022! I've been a professional photographer for about 8 years now enjoying every minute of it! My true passion when getting behind the lens is wedding photography. I pride myself in noticing the little details of special moments that happen during your wedding day, things that in maybe 30 years from now you may not remember of the day.

Hey, Im Grant. I'm a Madison, WI based wedding photographer who specializes in a documentary approach using both film and digital photography. If you want your wedding gallery to be uniquely yours (vs a Pinterest shotlist), then I'm your guy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Grant is a skilled, creative, and decisive photographer, but what I feel sets him apart is the care and attention he gives each client. From my conversations with him and the work he shares on social media, it is so evident he puts careful thought into providing the best experience possible for each couple he works with. Bringing him on for your big day is definitely one of the best decisions you can make as you plan your wedding.

Hi, I'm Makenna, and I’m a Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer based in the Madison Metropolitan area! I am a midwest gal, born and raised, currently residing in Stoughton, WI. Most days you can find me hanging out with my best friend and husband, Chris, our daughter Scottie, and our dog, Sky. Other than my family and photography, I’m most passionate about music, dance and the arts in general. I’m also interested in clean skin care and beauty, sustainable fashion, supporting small businesses, and meeting/getting to know new people! I would love to get to know you more as a couple, and to photograph your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
It is so clear that Makenna puts her heart and soul into capturing memories. She put my partner and I at ease and made us look EXCELLENT - even though we describe ourselves as quite awkward on camera. Makenna was so supportive throughout the pre-wedding planning and even shared tips and tricks unrelated to photography to help the day go smoothly. A photographer is by your side for much of this special day, I HIGHLY recommend hiring Makenna to be that person. You will not regret it!

I'm a midwest wedding photographer specializing in wedding photojournalism. I believe a wedding day is a celebration, not a photoshoot. Come as you are and know you don't need to pose and perform for the camera. The real stuff is the good stuff.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot say enough great things about having Caitlin as our wedding photographer! From our first meeting to engagement shoot and right up to the big day she was so easy to work with. She was always quick to respond to emails and questions. Even through all the COVID craziness, she was flexible with every change that came our way and was willing to adjust timing, schedule, location, etc. My husband and I were nervous in front of the camera at first, but she made us laugh, kept us talking, and encouraged us to be our natural selves. On the wedding day, she did not stop working for a second! She had talked and planned with us beforehand, so made sure to get all the specific photos she knew we wanted. We love how all our pictures turned out- she captured the emotions of our day perfectly!

Samantha Rose Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves DeForest, WI

I have always had a passion for storytelling and photography, which has led me to where I am today. Each one of us has a unique story filled with moments – whether big, small, heart-racing, breathtaking, simple, or quiet – that shape who we are. The desire to pause time and relive fleeting moments has always lingered within me. Photography is my way of capturing and preserving time, giving me the chance to hold onto it forever. Photographs reminding me of the life I've lived and continue to live.

Sam is very professional and made us so comfortable! She is fun with lots of creativity. Hands down someone I will keep going back to. I can't thank her enough for the moments she has captured for not only just me, but for my family. Highly recommend her!

We offer a personalized experience backed up by more than 33+ years in business delivering high quality, creative photography and video on time and within your wedding budget. We are experts in photojournalism, offering couples an unmatched level of value for their wedding photography and video services.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

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. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. 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.

We absolutely loved working with OLAS! Our team (photo & video) was so adaptable to the venue and had great ideas for shots and making the most of the location. I loved all of the candids taken of the guests which is something I wanted during the ceremony and reception. We were able to see parts of the night that we would have missed. The planning team was also great- Hannah was very helpful in giving me an example timeline ahead of our call. We’re so pleased with our choice to select OLAS!

We had a wonderful experience with Pierro, he was so easy to work with and kept the experience fun and relaxed. Loved his ideas for memorable photos and his ability to capture the best moments! His guidance was super helpful and we were able to get all the shots we wanted plus a lot of amazing candid shots! He worked with us every step and made sure we had fun with it. He was also very understanding about our limited budget and worked resourcefully and creatively. We were originally supposed to have an outdoor wedding but it rained so we had to move it indoors. We were disappointed because we loved the outdoor space at the venue, but Pierro found ways to get beautiful shots inside. He also managed to get some incredible shots outside despite the weather! Overall, it was an amazing time and we are so happy that we went with Pierro. Would definitely recommend his services!
