Stephanie Koppa - Photographer 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

Hey! Allow me to introduce myself - I'm Stephanie. Born & raised in Wisco but I have a wandering soul. I love photographing love. Silly love, sweet love, crazy love, & any kind in between. Adventurous couples are my jam - those that aren't afraid to jump in a lake fully clothed or hang out with alpacas in the freezing cold for their shoot. I live for shoots where we are all barefoot, hanging by the lake, enjoying the sunset while I capture the moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Stephanie to be a part of your wedding! She was referred to us from our friend who couldn’t stop raving about her. From day one she has been so amazing and we have been highly impressed. So far she has done our engagement pictures and will be doing our wedding photos later this year! Throughout our engagement shoot both Stephanie and Courtney made the experience so natural, easy, and most importantly fun! Our pictures turned out amazing and we got them back in such a timely manner. Stephanie is also very prompt with communication and has been there to answer all wedding questions (even if they aren’t related to photography) which has been so beneficial as we were overwhelmed when we first got engaged! We highly recommend Stephanie and her staff as they are highly personable and make the whole process feel less stressful. You won’t regret choosing them to be apart of your special day!

I am a person who breathes art in all forms. Visual art, music, behavioral and conceptual. The process of creation has always provided me with great satisfaction and being able to combine the creative process with a service that can bring joy to so many people is tremendously fulfilling.

Awarded Best of Zola
We searched for a photographer for our Lake Geneva wedding but it was a bit difficult as we both live in Chicago. Luckily, I had read some really great reviews about Ari Rosenthal Photographers and was thrilled when I talked with Ari. He was helpful and professional, had our date available and their price was perfect. Mark, one of the photographers and the one who we chose, was amazing to work with on our special day. We have had so many family and friends just love the photos when we shared them! Mark's professional experience put us at ease from the moment he arrived and the communication was great from the first phone call. We feel so fortunate to have chosen Mark to be our photographer as his ability in working with all of us, was so calming and fun, plus our pictures turned out so awesome! We look forward to celebrating our 1st Anniversary on September 29th and have incredible photos to forever enjoy!

I’ve always had a deep passion for organizing and planning, and I believe that every special event deserves to be absolutely stunning. With this philosophy in mind, I founded XOXO by Sara, and have gained many valuable connections with industry-leading experts and vendors over the years.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband & I worked with Sara for our wedding this past July for month-of coordination, and it was a super easy, enjoyable, and fun experience. Sara was personally a joy to work with and we clicked quickly. She remembered every detail from our meetings, kept me organized, and tracked down vendors for answers which helped me immensely. She went above & beyond what I was expecting, and as someone who usually likes control over all of the details I trusted her immediately and knew we were in good hands. Day-of, she hustled so hard and executed on every detail we discussed, making our day worry and stress free. She has a great way with people – making sure everyone in our families knew what they were doing (wrangling 20 people) but in a personable, yet firm way! I will miss working with her, and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. V

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.

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.

Dominika Photographer 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Milwaukee, WI

Hi, I'm Dominika. I'm happily married and a mama to two awesome daughters. I'm also a yogi and, admittedly, a wannabe Spaniard who would move back to Spain in a heartbeat to indulge in the simple pleasures of delicious tapas, red wine, cheese, and late dinners. Traveling and spending time with my little family brings my heart joy. Having lived and worked in Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Argentina, and Spain, has deeply inspired my will to explore more of the world and my style behind the lens to capture the essence of moments as they happen naturally and spontaneously.

We are so happy we found Dominika when we started to plan our wedding. We were drawn to her photography right away. From our first interaction Dom was so kind, passionate, and we clicked with her instantly. She is so personable and immediately made us feel comfortable at our engagement photo shoot. She was the first vendor to reach out to us when the pandemic began and was so patient/responsive with us as we decided what to do. Little did we know we’d end up having two weddings and the pleasure of her photographing both! We consider ourselves very lucky to get to work with her multiple times. We have felt the most confident and ourselves around her as she is able to capture our pure love and joy in every shot! We didn’t even book a videographer because we knew her photographs would be magic! You are one of a kind Dominika, we are so happy to know you not just as a photographer but now a friend.

The Best Place at Pabst was so easy to work with, affordable, flexible drink packages, lots of fun amenities, natural atmosphere and decor means you don’t need to do much decorating of your own, I could go on and on. Our guests could not stop raving about how unique, intimate and lovely the space was. We used the Blue Ribbon Hall which included a balcony space which we used to give our guests the opportunity to play classic WI card games; Euchre, Sheepshead, cribbage etc… It was a great, separate space to hang out but still be a part of the celebration and watch the dancing. The staff even accommodated our last minute request to play the Bucks playoff game on the projector during dinner! Our wedding included lots of guests from out of town and out of state and we really wanted a venue that embodied Milwaukee culture. This. Was. IT.

At one point I remember asking her “Will you call me if this or that goes wrong?” and she replied with “No, I’m not. I am going to figure it out so you can be present with your family and friends.” She did everything perfectly, but this impressed me the most! She even scheduled a few times during our wedding where my husband and I had a few moments alone together. We appreciated this so much because it allowed us to slow down, be present, and catch our breath. My wedding was flawless and I owe it all to her! Thank you so much Katie! Please keep in touch!

Classy Girl Cupcakes was founded in 2009 when owner Erica Elia baked the cupcakes for her own wedding. They were such a hit that friends and family asked her to bake for their weddings and parties.

She built a website, rented a kitchen, catered 35 weddings her first year & went on to opening her dream bakery! Our dedicated staff give the utmost personal attention to our clients. Even though we cater many weddings, our goal is to inspire positive client relationships for a lifetime of cupcake-worthy celebrations.

Erica and her team at Classy Girl Cupcakes created the perfect wedding cake and cupcakes for our special day! From our first meeting, Erica was prompt, cheerful, and eager to bring my vision to life. She asked thoughtful questions to understand my style and preferences. Throughout the planning process, Erica was readily available to answer any questions I had. She provided design ideas that were creative yet tasteful. The end result was an exquisite two-tier cake and decorative cupcakes that fit our 08/03/2024 Carriage House wedding flawlessly. The cake was moist and flavorful, with elegant piping details. Erica's attention to detail ensured that every aspect was picture perfect.

Hi! I'm Kayla - a traveling Milwaukee wedding photographer - and I'm going to make you cry. Wait, what? Don't worry, not in a bad way. Most of my couples say they cry when receiving their wedding photos from me for the first time. Five, ten, fifty years down the road when you open your wedding album, bet I'll get you again. You'll still be surrounded by your loved ones - remembering the happy tears and laughing until your belly hurts - just as you did on your wedding day.

We are so beyond thankful that we went with Kayla to photograph our wedding. Throughout our engagement shoot and the wedding day- watching her work is truly incredible. She is a master and finding little moments that bring absolute magic to her photos. Never did we feel like we were doing cheesy poses on our wedding day, and the photos reflect that. We have been looking through our sneak peek pictures obsessively because they instantly bring us back to our wedding day. Throughout which, Kayla was the calm amid the chaos. She was so focused on helping us stay on time and navigating us from one task to the next. It was such a comfort knowing that she had our backs and was ensuring that we got all of the big (and small) moments we had discussed leading up to the day. We can’t wait to see the rest of our photos. We know that choosing her as our photographer was one of absolute best decisions for our entire process - from engagement to wedding day. If her pictures haven’t already convinced you- let this be your sign! You want this one.

Hey! I'm Katrice. Photography has been my 'thing' for as long as I can remember. My father was a photographer. One of my earliest memories is a point and click film camera being placed in my hand. As I grew up photography began to mean so much more to me. It helps us remember. these little bits of time are captured forever. Seeing the joy on my friend's faces when I'd hand them prints after recent adventures was so meaningful to me. After college and the birth of my daughter I decided to dive in full time, and here we are. 7 years later & still learning and growing. I love it all.

Katrice was simply amazing. She was flexible and communicative. Her online portal is super easy to use. But most importantly, she captured the most incredible pictures of our wedding. She commanded the attention needed to wrangle a variety of people for formal photos, including an entire group shot, and got truly excellent candid photos. We could not be happier!

I've worked as an editor and videographer for the last 6 years of my life and filming weddings has allowed me to connect storytelling to a lifelong hobby and passion of mine; videography. In the off-season, I work for creative agencies, production houses, and all kinds of others as a videographer and editor. Follow me on Instagram to see some of my other commercial and creative work that I've had the pleasure of working on.

Brad was an absolute breeze to work with. Planning a wedding in 2020 was not easy, but you wouldn't have known that working with Brad. His communication was always on point and was there to answer every question. Not everyone decides to hire a videographer, but I would 100% recommend it. The outcome of his product left my husband and I speechless, not to mention brought tears to our eyes. Everyone always says the actually wedding day flies by, and truly it does. But having all of the video footage to go back and watch is something I can't put into words. Brad and team, I can't thank you enough!! So if you are on the fence of whether to hire a videographer or not, do it. I promise you won't regret it!

Hi! I grew up in NY and came to Milwaukee 8 years ago - you could say it was for love. We have settled in and embraced our new community. I have been so lucky to always have working with people at the forefront of everything I do. From teaching to non profit work, photography allows me to do all of those things. I LOVE being outside and exploring new places. We live on the shores of Lake Michigan and visit the beach regularly year round. When I am not frolicking and photographing amazing people, I am usually spending time with my nutty little family outside.

Chelsea is an absolute dream! She has an incredible eye and captures the big moments, but also the intimate and special moments throughout the day. Her photos are stunning and so so special, as she really gets to know you and your family. Chelsea will find the beauty in and celebrate what is special about/unique to you as a couple, and the results show that. She is so kind, easy and fun to work with, and was a real support throughout our whole planning process. Especially since we got married during the pandemic we had a lot of questions and unique hoops to jump through. Chelsea was always willing to talk through details (even those not photo-related!), share suggestions, etc. throughout our planning process. The day of Chelsea was a joy to have around and her positive energy and willingness to do whatever it took for the perfect shot (including walking backwards for several blocks during our mariachi band parade through the streets) is unmatched. I recommend Chelsea Matson Photography to any and everyone- you will not be disappointed!

It rained the entire day of my wedding & she remained so positive & never once made us feel overwhelmed or rushed. Her work is phenomenal, I have never felt more beautiful in photos than I do in the ones Liz took of me in my wedding dress. I would highly recommend her for any wedding!

The Smoke Shack 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $30

We’re obsessed with the craft of smoked meat. Our certified humanely-raised meats are dry rubbed, slow smoked, and sauced by you. In some cases, we began smoking your meat yesterday to ensure you get the perfect quality barbecue. We smoke our meats in small batches, all-day, every-day. In some cases, we sell out when items are in high demand, but sit back, savor a bourbon or two, and try something new. We’re certain that you’ll enjoy our variety!

We have been fans of The Smoke Shack for years as a go to for some great BBQ food in downtown Milwaukee. When we wanted to have a more casual dinner buffet for our wedding we thought what could be better than BBQ! Smoke Shack was great when we went in for a tasting. If memory serves the tasting was free unlike a lot of other caterers and the pricing was comparable. We had a COVID wedding and had to make some last minute changes (8 days before the wedding) because our venue could no longer accommodate us. No problem! Smoke Shack just updated the location and adjusted their plan and delivered as promised. The food was great and the guests were asking for more. Highly recommend the KC Egg Rolls if you are going to get any appetizers! Thank you Smoke Shack!

Hello there sweet friend! My name is Taylor Chmill and I’m a photographer based in Milwaukee, WI! Most people call me TK and know me as the girl who loves summer camp and has alllll the freckles! I'm outgoing with a bubbly personality and I can't wait to learn how I can serve you best on your beautiful wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was first drawn to Taylor’s style of photography - bright and cheerful. After we met with her, it was clear her personality matched. She is clearly very organized and can sweetly but firmly command the room. She also helped us so much with planning (and replanning!) the schedule for both our small wedding ceremony in 2020 and big rescheduled wedding reception in 2021. She was always excited and open to small personal things I wanted to add. I cannot recommend her enough (and to back that up, my maid of honor also picked Taylor to photograph her wedding next year as well!)

The Factory on Barclay 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Venue
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

The Factory on Barclay is one of the largest Industrial venues in Southeast Wisconsin. The 2-story Cream City Brick walls throughout the space encompasses the history of Milwaukee and provides a grand backdrop for any wedding style. Accommodating up to 300 seated guests or up to 400 for a cocktail style reception, along with an onsite ceremony, The Factory offers great options for groups of most sizes. Enjoy the 2 oversized, separate, onsite suites to get ready whether you choose to hold your ceremony onsite or offsite. Guests enjoy the large, outdoor patio with warm cafe lighting to enjoy the fresh air.

We couldn't have picked a more beautiful, open and perfect venue than the Factory on Barclay. We got married 5/13 and people are still messaging me about how stunning the venue was. Sarah was amazing every step of the way from letting us tour multiple times with different family members, owning set up of our day and tear down. We didn't have to worry about a thing besides having our day. The rest of the staff day-of was absolutely awesome as well. Alcohol is provided. Bartenders were awesome and dealt with the party atmosphere of our wedding really well. We had a little scheduling issue where, surprisingly, we were ahead of schedule and Sarah got all vendors to move things ahead 30 mins. You get so much for your money as well. The space itself is massive and makes the day flow really easily. We did everything on-site, (getting ready, pics, ceremony and reception) and it was the perfect space. Getting ready suites are huge and a big plus. Recommended vendors usually sway people in the opposite direction because you have a smaller list of caterers to chose from, but it's evident that the staff at the Factory and Sarah have taken the time to curate a list of vendors that make a lot of sense for all different budgets and different experiences. We wouldn't do a thing differently regarding our venue search. Truly was the most beautiful day. Will add pictures once we get our formal pics from our photographer!

Cassaundra Cherney Photography

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

With 10 years of experience, Cassaundra began her photography journey at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire as a Fine Arts student majoring in Photography. During her time in college, she assisted and second shot for many wedding's and events. In 2014, Cassaundra moved to Arizona on a whim and began her own photography business. The desert and mountains ignited in her a new passion for photography. After a short stint in LA, Cassaundra now lives in Milwaukee with her eight-year-old daughter. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, martial arts, and doing art with her daughter.

My engagement shoot was INCREDIBLE thanks to Cassaundra's vision! We shot at a beautiful Malibu beach during the sunset and she was reassuring, creative, and communicative throughout the process. Our photos were such a hit with my family, that we used her for our wedding and my sister also enlisted her services for her civil ceremony. Cassaundra has become our family photographer!
