I picked up my first camera in 2019 and started second shooting weddings in 2020. I'm an avid lover of love stories and good desserts, I love getting to capture candid moments during wedding days and getting to celebrate with my couples. I've been married to the love of my life since Feb. 2019 and we have a daughter together and we just had our baby boy in Nov. 2023. We enjoy fishing, hiking and reading as a family.

Cheryl Mansur Photography LLC was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. Their communication was always timely, respectful, and efficient, which helped keep us on schedule and feeling at ease throughout the day. The quality of their work was amazing - the photos are beautiful and capture the natural beauty of our special day in such a lovely way. Cheryl herself is such a sweet person who was wonderful to have by our side, and we are thrilled with the memories she helped us create. We cannot recommend Cheryl Mansur Photography highly enough!

  • Serves Athens, WI

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

Loved working with Allie! Not to mention the photos were exactly what we wanted. She was fun, on time, prepared, found a great 2nd shooter, and worked quickly! But we never felt rushed and got all the shots we wanted. She even bustled my dress :) haha. We did a mini session beforehand and were so pleased and it made us even more hyped for Wedding Day! She was responsive and easy to get ahold of!

As a wedding planner, I've had the opportunity to work with several photographers. That being said, Tess was a joy and a pleasure to work with! She followed the timeline very well and communicated throughout the event with any pertinent information. Following the event, she sent a fully edited gallery within the requested timeline. The gallery was absolutely stunning and you can see the amount of effort that went into each photograph. Tess was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend working with her! I would be lucky to work with her again in the future.

John, the owner and lead videographer, understands the importance of preserving this important time in your life. He is very passionate about telling compelling stories through cinematic story telling.

We found Frassetto Films through an honest google search for "wedding videographer near Oshkosh". I only had one consult before meeting with John, and I knew from that first Zoom meeting he was the right man for our wedding. We had a very nontraditional and unconventional ceremony and reception. We wanted someone fun who would be able to keep up on all the nonsense and shenanigans that the day would bring. John did his best at capturing the sweet, sentimental moments all the way to the downright ridiculous moments. He was equally excited, especially when he found out our food was being provided by Pete's Garage in Oshkosh. I booked him pretty early in the wedding planning process, so it was quite the wait to see how day unfolded. Communication was great throughout the year and a half engagement. There were never any questions left unanswered. He worked great with our photographer and other vendors. He is also a firm believer in letting you enjoy the day; you almost forget he's there with a camera. There were never any uncomfortable moments. He shared a teaser video a few days after the wedding which left us wanting more, obviously! He even posted a tik tok snippet of our ceremony which all of our guests and officiant keep raving about and sharing! I cannot wait to see the final product!

Homeschoolin, Home birthin, and Holistic mama that loves to capture Life and Love in it's truest moments and forms. My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

So easy to work with and professional! My labor went very quickly so photos were in the immediate postpartum. I love how each detail was captured so intimately to tell the story, so I can look back on those moments. She respected the environment and helped in any way to make sure I felt cared for-above and beyond being a photographer. We also did some newborn/family photos a few days later and she was very patient with my full of energy toddler, all while capturing the sweet details of our newborn. All of the photos are beautiful!! When I asked for a few edits to the gallery it was done and updated for me quickly.

David Rothstein Music was started in 1999. David believes each couple/client deserves to get exactly what they need for their specific event. DRM has a wide variety of ensembles and song choices to make every event meet and exceed your expectations!

We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!

We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Hi loves, I'm Sarah! I'm a destination wedding photographer and mother of two... CATS! I'm a big dreamer, romantic and creator, so you can only imagine how much I love what I do and sharing my passion with the couples I meet. I'm all about documenting authentic moments and getting to learn your love story. Because of how much I travel, I personally only take on a number of weddings per year as I'm very intentional with the work I do! If I'm not personally available, I have a team and they're amazing! So, if you love my style and don't mind working with my team the day of your wedding, the option is always there for you.

Sarah was a such a pleasure to work with! She's easy going and flowed well with our video team on the bride and groom's wedding day. Her photos are full of life and speak in authenticity in documented and candid moments. We would love to work with her again!

First of all, congratulations! Nothing gets me more excited than the opportunity to be your wedding photographer. I’ve been in business for 12 years already and am based out of Poynette, Wisconsin, generally having weddings in Central Wisconsin but I absolutely love to travel anywhere. Often I hear my couples comment on how easy I help make their wedding day run on top of them absolutely loving their timeless, true to life photos from their big day. There is no higher honor to me than being selected to capture your wedding through photographs for you and your loved ones to cherish for generations to come.

Wife, mom, cat guardian, storyteller, photographer. I've been photographing those madly in love for over a decade and still love every moment of it. I am a coffee lover, light chaser, and extroverted introvert. I find joy in being surrounded by family and friends, and relish the quiet moments of reading or aimlessly scrolling on my phone.

Ceri is, simply put, one of the best in the business, and she is sure to make your day a success! Her skills anticipating the needs of everyone involved at the wedding and her ability to pivot are astounding on their own, but when paired with her strengths in capturing moments you didn't even know you needed, well, she's out of this world! I highly recommend anyone to work with Ceri if they are looking to have a great time, an efficient process, and someone to make you feel comfortable and outright amazing!
