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 did our proposal shoot, engagement shoot, a random photoshoot we planned, and our wedding. She is so easy to work with and makes us feel so comfortable working with her. She goes above and beyond with her delivery of images too. She’s always given us more images than what we’ve paid for just because she enjoys the shoot so much and the images. You can tell she loves what she does through her work! She’s always timely with her shoots and delivery of images! She got us close to 100 preview images within a day of our wedding. We love working with her and highly recommend her!!!

Whimsical Roots Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Salem, WI

Over 200 times since 2013, I’ve hopped out of bed in the morning with butterflies in my stomach & stars in my eyes as I’ve loaded up my camera bag & headed out the door to capture a beautiful wedding day. I help sophisticated couples like you celebrate this iconic chapter in your journey by creating sincere images that look & feel true to life, & true to you. Your love story is anything but ordinary, & you can trust that I will celebrate your connection with creativity & poise, in its own, unrivaled way.  Depend on me to ensure a relaxed & joyful experience that will transform the fleeting moments of your wedding day into treasured heirlooms.

Before we even got engaged, I had already started to look for wedding vendors as we would be planning our Wisconsin wedding from out of state. With so many photographers in the wedding game, it was hard to figure out exactly what we wanted until I came across Andrea and her Whimsical Roots page. I was immediately hooked and wanted to book her as soon as possible. It was clear from her style that she cared about her clients, and I wanted a wedding album that reflected that warmth and authenticity. From our first phone call, we adored Andrea. She was so easy to talk to and was eagerly waiting for the news when we officially got engaged. Throughout our engagement, Andrea kept up with us, making sure things were going well in the planning process and even sent us a New Years greeting card – truly above and beyond! When it came to wedding day, Andrea was an absolute angel. I did not think about how many quiet, raw moments I would be alone with just a photographer and videographer on wedding day: reading a letter from my soon-to-be-husband, taking bridal shots on a back porch, and waiting in a back room before finding my dad for our grand entrance. It was such a comfort to have Andrea be the person who was with me in those tender moments. Her presence was a gift for which I will forever be grateful. Once the main events started, Andrea was a rockstar as she navigated a semi-public space, a boat ride that was pretty bumpy, and an entire event outside with the sunlight fading too quickly. She made everything look easy and kept such a positive, energetic attitude the entire day. We still talk about how much we laughed while taking photos because she made it so fun! The turn around time for our final photos was quicker than we expected, and we are so blessed to have such beautiful, timeless works of art to remember our special day.

WE ARE KATIE & DEVIN. We're in love & we shoot other people in love. It's hard to call just one place home. We're born and raised in Wisconsin, but there are pieces of our hearts in both Colorado and California, the two places where we have traveled the most together. We specialize in couples who are madly in love and who have a sense of humor. We prefer to tell your story, rather than make another generic love story. We want to capture raw emotions. We want you to giggle and we want you to dance.

Awarded Best of Zola
Couldn’t recommend Katie + Devin DeGroot enough. My fiance (now husband) surprised me and found Katie to shoot our surprise engagement and the photos captured how we were feeling and the excitement of our whole family. She was so professional (and hid in plain site so well!), we knew it was a no-brainer to ask her to shoot our engagement + wedding. We aren’t used to having our photo taken but Katie made us feel comfortable and went with the flow, even when our dog was being crazy :) Leading up to the wedding, the communication from the DeGroot team was clear and friendly. The online portal was easy to navigate with our invoices, contracts, and even Questionnaires that allowed us to organize which photos we wanted / where, etc. Due to COVID, we had to adjust our wedding twice: once with moving the date and once with the location to an entirely different city. I was fearful to tell our vendors but Katie couldn't have handled the switch any better than she did. This put us at ease and gave us one less thing to worry about. She worked with our Wedding Coordinator to finalize details, times, etc.. Day of, Katie + Devin were a dream team. Working with so many personalities of our friends and family is no easy feat but they worked as if they could read my mind. Their associate was professional and a great sport, working in the cold November air to shoot photos after the ceremony! They knew when /where to be and how to capture the day flawlessly and were a great team to work with! Thank you, thank you, thank you DeGroot team! 110% recommended!

From stolen glances to cheeky kisses and getting loose on the dance floor, I'll be there to document your love story. I'll even make sure to snap authentic moments that may've slipped by unnoticed - they're the best ones! Whether you want me to inconspicuously lurk in the shadows, snapping candid shots, or be right up front, rounding everyone up for group photos, I'll be the chameleon you need on the day. Either way, I'll be behind the lens, not missing a beat. When you look through the photos memories will come to life and it'll be as though you're right there doing it all over again.

Steve Bowman Photography

Welcome! I'm Steve! Creativity should be about showing you the usual things unusually. It should be about using everything at that moment to produce something unique...ultimately, it's about dragging your client towards something bigger and better than they expect. It's about giving them experiences and photographs that belong on rock albums and movie posters!

Steve Bowman Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, his communication was quick, informative, and friendly. The quality of his work was stellar - they captured the most beautiful, artistic, and detail-oriented photos that we will treasure forever. They were able to get us our fully edited photos the same night, which was incredibly impressive. The best example is, the stunning family photo they took of my husband, daughter, and I - it's now my new favorite of the three of us and I can't stop looking at it. He also took incredible shots of my husband and I throughout the day that I'm so grateful to have. Plus, he made the whole experience easy and fun! We had a great time getting our pictures taken together for a first look before the ceremony. The value he provided was unbeatable, and we'll absolutely be using him again in the future. Steve Bowman Photography is simply the best!

Awarded Best of Zola
Sound Originals was beyond incredible for my wedding. I communicated to them that I wanted to add video a few months out from my wedding and it was a stress free process. My husband and I are a bit awkward when taking photos and my photographer and videographer were so great in helping us get comfortable and trying different poses that made us less awkward in front of the camera. They both helped keep the energy high all throughout the night and my only regret was not hiring them for longer to capture things that had happened after they left. My bridal party and guests were telling me how great my photographer and videographer were. I just got my photos back and they are exactly what I wanted; Moody, slightly editorial with some candid moments. I can’t recommend Sound Originals enough and I will be recommending them to friends and family that are in need of a photographer/videographer

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 can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!
