KMauck Photography LLC

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

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.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,250
  • Serves Waunakee, WI

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!

I can't say enough good things about Makenna Smith Photography! There are so many things to love! We've worked with her three separate times and each time she absolutely exceeds our expectations! She is so incredibly talented. One of the times we worked with her was when she was just beginning her photography business and the finished product was absolutely stunning - we still get compliments today on our photos and I love to tell people that she was just getting started at the time. We love to brag about her! Her attention to detail and organizational skills during the planning process is so much appreciated. She helped answer all planning questions, assisted us with finding vendors and was so great at communicating with us and with our other vendors. Even though she had other clients, I always felt like the top priority. On the day of the wedding, Makenna is so helpful at keeping things going. She leads when she needs to but she's flexible and goes with the flow when things don't go as planned. She always makes it a priority to check in with the couple to see if they are having fun, doing okay, and enjoying the day. She's so selfless and does whatever it takes to make the day amazing for the couple. She goes above and beyond in everything she does - she is so much more than a photographer. Aside from being a great professional, Makenna is a wonderful person and her energy and heart shines through in everything she does. This is her passion. She loves capturing special moments and I'm so thankful she agreed to capture ours!

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.

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!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Waunakee, 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!

Erika Diaz Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Waunakee, WI

My own love story makes my heart skip a beat, and that’s my inspiration for capturing yours. For me, photography started as a fun, creative outlet—but it quickly became a way to bottle up the most meaningful moments in life. I love freezing those moments in time that make us want to hit “rewind” or at least “pause” for a little while. The moments that make my heart skip a beat.

As a wedding vendor, I've had the pleasure of working with Erika many times on creative projects and wedding days and have never had anything but the kindest words for my time with her! She's attentive and warm with every person she meets. She captures intimate moments others miss and allows freedom in the day for authentic memories to happen naturally. You'll feel fully supported leading up to the day with check-ins, timeline creation and easing nerves to make the day run smoothly. Highly recommended to all my couples!

Hi, I'm Jenna! I'm a destination wedding and elopement photographer living in Madison, Wisconsin. My approach is artistic and documentary, focusing on candid moments and real emotion which results in non-traditional wedding photographs.

Jenna is AMAZING! She was so easy to work with, and highly professional. My husband and I were drawn to the authenticity of her work, and we are so in love with our engagement and wedding photos! Jenna captured the genuine emotion of our wedding day, without any of the "cheesiness" that can be typical of wedding photos. On our wedding day, Jenna and her second shooter, Cody, were present to capture all our special moments, but it never felt crowded or overwhelming. We're also really glad that we went with the option to have a second shooter. We would highly

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.
