Behind the Lens
ABOUT kelly
Wife of 12 years to my carpenter husband, momma to five (yes—five!) sweet kiddos, Wisconsin wedding + senior photographer, and financial educator for creative entrepreneurs. I count it a privilege to photograph the seasons of life and help my fellow entrepreneurs create the freedom they desire.
Lake Geneva and Milwaukee
Wedding Photographer
Hopeless romantic (and total Enneagram 9), lover of light, travel, and the soft, glowing colors brought to life on film.
There's nothing quite like flipping through an old photo album, reading a hand-written letter, or hearing the story of a loved one you never got to meet. And when you think about it? Legacy isn't just some 'far off' thing that you'll leave behind when you're old and gray. Rather, it's what you are creating and experiencing right now in your day-to-day life.
My style goes far beyond dreamy natural light, breathtaking landscapes, and gorgeous details...it's rooted in capturing your unique personality & relationship in a way that will enhance your legacy and be a gift for generations to come.
Together, let's create photographs that transport you back to some of your greatest moments. I promise, they'll be an investment that just gets better with time.
At it's essence, legacy means to leave a gift.
You're in the right place if you hope to leave behind a legacy of beauty, connection, and ultimately... love.
I adore everything about weddings, but what I love the most are the little details and the way each couple gets to express who they are as a couple and incorporate their personalities + interests into their wedding day!
