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
Stephanie was wonderful to work with as our wedding day photographer from start to finish. Her communication from when we first reached out to when the photos were ready was clear, timely and reliable. Her demeanor in each interaction was calm, organized and kind, which helped make the engagement photos comfortable and the wedding day enjoyable. Then there is her talent with photography! We are so happy with our wedding day photos and are so thankful for Stephanie's eye in capturing this day for us so beautifully.

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

With over five years of experience and more than 75 weddings captured, I’m here to ensure that the most important day of your life is documented with intention, heart, and artistry.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first reached out to Hello Hana Photography, we were impressed by her friendly and incredibly helpful communication style. Hana went above and beyond to ensure our engagement pictures were beautiful and that we felt comfortable during the whole process. As an interracial couple, we were worried about finding a photographer who knew how to make us both look our best, but the engagement photos she took exceeded all expectations. Hana also provided vendor recommendations and made herself available for any questions, going far beyond just the photography aspect. The final photos were nothing short of amazing - we are overjoyed with the results and would recommend Hello Hana Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience. We can’t wait for our wedding day & to continue working with Hana!

We just got married over a month ago and we can’t stop talking about how perfect of a day it was. All of that is thanks to Veronica and the help of Meg. We booked Veronica as our month of planner and she truly went above and beyond. She made her resources available to us immediately after booking her, which was still 1 year to go from our wedding date. We both felt so comfortable with her. We were never afraid to ask questions or bring up concerns. The month leading up to the wedding I truly was not stressed at all. Veronica was in contact with all of our vendors making sure every detail was perfect. She would join the vendor meetings and advocate for my husband and I to make sure we got what we wanted out of our big day. She was such a pleasure to work with! We can’t thank her enough.

Kayla Hurst Photo

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500

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.

Kayla exceeded every expectation, and I couldn’t recommend her enough. From the moment we started working together, I knew she understood the vibe and would be able to bring my vision to life. Starting with our engagement photos that were like something from a magazine, to capturing stunning candid moments that told the story of our wedding day perfectly. She went above and beyond, even to blow-dry my dress after we got caught in an unexpected downpour, making what could have been a stressful moment feel manageable and even fun. She read me so well throughout the day, knowing exactly when I needed a quiet moment to myself versus when I was ready for portraits. Her attention to detail, kindness, and genuine care made her an invaluable part of our celebration, and her work is something we’ll treasure forever. We hope to continue to work with Kayla to capture future milestones!

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. 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.

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.

Dominika Photographer

  • 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 interviewed a few different photographers and had the best connection with Dominika right off the bat. We connected with her personality and really liked her style of getting the best shots without putting a filter on her photos (those filtered photos will not be timeless, ladies!). We had to reschedule our engagement photos due to weather and she was super accommodating. Then, I mistakenly invited her to our wedding photo venue for a tour when it was closed and she happily agreed to come back another day! So many people have commented on how amazing our photos are. A lot of my friends have said how much they regret not getting a better photographer and its sad to hear. The only thing that lasts from the big day are your photos, so you need to make sure you get the best photographer! Plus, her prices cannot be beat for such an incredible quality! You will be lucky to book her, so act fast!

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. I would enthusiastically recommend Classy Girl Cupcakes to any bride looking to add a personal, delicious touch to their wedding.

I am so glad that we worked with Lyssa and Modern Sage for their day of coordination services. We started planning our wedding on our own as we had a good idea of what we wanted, but working with Lyssa made the planning process easier as I didn't have to take the time to look up recommendations on things like how much to tip vendors, I could just reach out to Lyssa. We hired Lyssa because we didn't want to have to worry about anything the day of the wedding, but I couldn't imagine how much of a difference having her involved would make. She helped with so many little things during the event that I just didn't have to think twice about anything other than enjoying my wedding and spending time with our guests. From making sure everything was set up for the ceremony and making sure we both always had a drink or whatever else we possibly needed, to saving some of the passed appetizers for us to enjoy and putting together an incredible video for us after the wedding, Lyssa did it all and so much more. Whether you are looking for a wedding planner or just someone to help with the details day of, I highly recommend working with Lyssa and Modern Sage as she will run with whatever you ask her to do and will make sure you can be in the moment and not worrying about the details.

Hey, I’m Elizabeth “Libby” Haydin (yes my middle name is Sue) wife, mother, photographer, and puppy cuddler, and a lot more. Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I'd travel anywhere to capture a beautiful story. In 2016 I graduated with a degree in photography. At the time I was a 20 year old stay at home mom. I photographed my first wedding while planning my own and developed a passion for capturing love stories.

We love working with Libby Haydin. We’ve done many photo sessions with her. Our favorite thing about working with her is that, not only does she bring her own creative ideas, but she is open to suggestions on poses, etc that we might want to try. She loves what she does, and she wants to help you capture your memories that you can look back on for years to come. So when people ask for a Wedding Photographer, Libby Sue Photography is always the first one we suggest!

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 got to work alongside Liz as her second shooter this past fall and a gorgeous venue in WI! She was pregnant at the time and handled the entire day like a boss!! She was easy going and treated her couple like close friends, making sure they were taken care of and thoroughly enjoying themselves. When the time came for direction, Liz knew exactly how to pose her couple and made sure they weren’t left feeling awkward or like they didn’t know what to do. She knew how to handle the day balancing between fun candids and easy prompts when needed. I definitely look forward to working with her again in the future!!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Hi! I'm Alex, a wedding photographer based out of Milwaukee, WI! I've been a photographer since 2017 and have fallen absolutely in love with capturing love stories! When I'm not behind the camera, you can likely find me traveling (I'm in Arizona a lot), snuggled up at home with my pups, or trying local coffee shops!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Alex as our wedding photographer, and I can't say enough wonderful things about her! From the moment we first met her, she radiated warmth and professionalism. Alex's talent behind the camera is truly remarkable. She has a unique ability to capture the most candid and heartwarming moments, turning them into stunning works of art. Her attention to detail is impeccable, and every photo she took seemed to tell a story. On the day of the wedding, Alex was an absolute joy to work with. She made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, and her positive energy was infectious. She was able to effortlessly blend into the background, capturing all the intimate moments without ever feeling intrusive. Not only is Alex incredibly talented, but she is also incredibly dedicated to her craft. She went above and beyond to ensure that we got the most beautiful wedding photos. She scouted out the perfect locations, worked tirelessly to capture the best lighting, and was willing to travel to us to get the shots we dreamed of. The final photos exceeded our expectations in every way. They were breathtakingly beautiful and brought tears to our eyes as we relived our special day through Alex's lens. She managed to capture the love, joy, and emotion of the day in every shot, and for that, we are forever grateful. If you're looking for a wedding or engagement photographer who is not only talented but also a pleasure to work with, Alex is the one. She is a true artist, and we feel so lucky to have had her as our photographer. Thank you, Alex, for capturing our day so beautifully!

I'll bring an optimistic energy to any wedding day. If you're someone who is more excited about marrying your best friend, than the wedding day itself, then you might be a #nicolemirocouple.

Seriously, if you came across Nicole's information - look no further. You'll know from the very first interaction, this girl is fun, personable, caring and professional. She has a full blown process from start to finish, including providing printed style / informational guides, etc. For a type A bride like me, she was so thorough and basically did the thinking for me. For my, now husband, he wanted a photographer that would help him feel comfortable and give direction while photographing; she nailed it. When it came time for delivery, we were blown away. I've already referred her to several other people and she always over-delivers. We are so happy to have hired her and are thankful to have her as our go-to photographer from now on.
