505 Media Company

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Portage, WI

As a Media Company, 505 Media Co always tries to capture genuine emotions. When we capture a wedding. We have the unique opportunity to freeze that moment in time. This is a priceless treasure a couple can cherish for the rest of their lives.

I had my wedding in November 2023, and working with 505 was like a DREAM. I got a package that allowed me to work with a video and photo team, and I also had a day-of coordinator. Krystal was my coordinator, and she was incredible!! She was super friendly and bubbly, but also extremely professional. Working with her and her team was such a smooth process; they were quick communicators, I always got a response back quickly, and I never felt uncertain or worried with them. From the engagement session to the wedding itself to the delivery of the final product, I was extremely happy. The photographers and videographers were so much fun to work with, and I honestly can't speak highly enough about how happy my new husband and I are. We also referred 505 to my cousin that just got married. Love this team!!

Hooke Photo

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,950
  • Serves Portage, WI

As a small boy, I would sit for hours watching my mother hand-color portraits for a local photographer, during the cold winter months, by a fire in our family room. From there I began taking my own pictures with my first box camera. Fast forward to a restless twenty-something working as a microbiologist, taking weddings and portraits on weekends. Eventually I graduated college with an M.A. in Photography and started out in Chicago, assisting numerous photographers, shooting everything from oranges to weddings. I have been fortunate to have worked all over the world. Photography is more than a job, it’s an avocation, a passion, it's what I do.

I am Marissa, a photographer, mom, and wife. When I am not behind the camera you can find me venturing around Chicago or the country with my family. We love adventures and I love a delicious plate of nachos… snickers and a fizzy water I AM SURE YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY I DO WHAT I DO AND HOW I DO IT… I have always had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember… I mean even one of my daughter is named after a camera and the other is named after light.. I bet you can’t guess what their names are. I absolutely love being there to capture all moments in life… especially weddings.

Marissa was so helpful in helping us determine what packages would be most helpful for us based on our wants and the day of the wedding, she was helpful and professional. The pictures she took were amazing and better than we could have imagined! We've had her since take other headshots and couples photos. We trust her with our photographic memories!

I love photographing real moments of people in love. With me, I work hard for you to feel comfortable to be yourselves, so that I can capture the most creative, endearing swoon-worthy moments. My style is a mix of candid and editorial, and while I'll make certain to grab those mandatories with fam, the majority of your photos will be captured "moments" — especially between the bridal couple. My editorial-style wedding photography and engagement photos will capture those moments, those details, those looks you gave one another, that you may forget about 20 or 50 years from now, but will be able smile upon when you look at your wedding photos.

Emily is amazing and so reliable! From engagement photos to your wedding day- you will be in excellent hands.

  • Serves Portage, WI

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.

We are so beyond thankful that we went with Kayla to photograph our wedding. Throughout our engagement shoot and the wedding day- watching her work is truly incredible. She is a master and finding little moments that bring absolute magic to her photos. Never did we feel like we were doing cheesy poses on our wedding day, and the photos reflect that. We have been looking through our sneak peek pictures obsessively because they instantly bring us back to our wedding day. Throughout which, Kayla was the calm amid the chaos. She was so focused on helping us stay on time and navigating us from one task to the next. It was such a comfort knowing that she had our backs and was ensuring that we got all of the big (and small) moments we had discussed leading up to the day. We can’t wait to see the rest of our photos. We know that choosing her as our photographer was one of absolute best decisions for our entire process - from engagement to wedding day. If her pictures haven’t already convinced you- let this be your sign! You want this one.

Two hopeless romantic creatives that want nothing more than to help you have everlasting beautiful memories of your big day. We love LOVE and are incredibly stylish and detail orientated. We are easygoing and will expertly handle the day, so you can focus on the most important thing, each other and your LOVE!!!

My fiancé and I hired Behind The Veil to cover both our engagement session and wedding day. They were pros right off the bat. Also, they’re a couple themselves so they know every in and out and have so much wisdom and experience - something so many solo photographers or “non-couple” photo teams don’t have. We started the process with a conference call where they took time to learn about exactly what we wanted, from location to looks to style to cost. They handled setting timelines, schedules, and took care of all the odds and ends so WE DIDN’T HAVE TO. So helpful! And after all that work, the pictures they captured are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. Oh, and in case I didn’t mention, we had ALL OF OUR PHOTOS BACK, FULLY EDITED, WITHIN ONE WEEK! That’s unheard of. I’ll just say this to save you some time - if you don’t hire Behind The Veil Photography for your wedding, you’re making a mistake

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.

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!

Working with milkweed moments is a breeze! I was nervous because I have a 3 and 1 year old, and wasn’t sure how they would cooperate. Aubriana made everything go smoothly.

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. 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

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.

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!

I don’t even know where to start with Liz. I was in a bad situation with a photographer & Liz stepped in LITERALLY 5 days before my wedding and offered her services. With little prep time she was able to go above & beyond what I could have ever wanted in a photographer. It rained the entire day of my wedding & she remained so positive & never once made us feel overwhelmed or rushed. Her work is phenomenal, I have never felt more beautiful in photos than I do in the ones Liz took of me in my wedding dress. I would highly recommend her for any wedding!
