My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Her communication style was organized, thoughtful, and attentive - she took detailed notes during our consultations and always followed up promptly. Most importantly, the quality of Shawna's work is fantastic, especially considering her very reasonable rates. She has a true talent for capturing emotional moments and telling the story of the day. On the wedding day itself, Shawna brought a sense of calm and kept everything running smoothly while also fading into the background. She implemented our discussed plans flawlessly and was highly professional yet so easy to work with. We could not be happier with how our photos turned out - Shawna beautifully documented all the special details and joyful memories of our wedding celebration.

Lauren was amazing from our first conversation all the way til the end. As an interracial couple, I was drawn to her photos featuring diverse couples. I loved that Lauren talked about having experience and taking a course dedicated to the lighting/ensuring different skin tones look great in photos (she used professional photographer words but this was over a year ago now haha!) I told her about my insecurities and she ensured me that I would look beautiful and suggested different poses etc that would highlight the features that I wanted. She was on time and took charge of the timeline to keep us on track which I greatly appreciated. The photos are amazing; I can’t decide which is my favorite because it changes every day! I cannot recommend LAR photography enough. Definitely the smoothest vendor of the day. Thank you Lauren!!!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Hi! Welcome. My name is Makena a late-twenties photographer in the greater Milwaukee Area! When not photographing people or pets (@thegooddogphotography), I am photographing homes for real estate (yes – I know what you’re thinking… “Boring!” but hey, sometimes it’s nice to photograph things that don’t move or run away from you.) But in my actual free time, I am editing photos, hanging with my mini-family, going to F45, or crashing my neighbor's pool. I am a family, newborn, portrait, and branding photographer. But honestly, I love what I do so much that I can shoot whatever you’re looking for, just inquire!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had Makena as our wedding photographer for our November wedding. She was absolutely amazing to work with! It has taken me a little bit to write a review because there's a million things I could write about and narrowing it down was a task. First, she was more than willing to meet with us well before the wedding to go over what to expect because we were in the dark about the whole wedding process so knowing what we needed to tell a photographer was new to us. She went above and beyond. As a bride I was a little stressed that day and she helped me in everyway. She gave advice, was so generous as to go and receive something I needed, even went to check on things and communicated things for me. I never would have expected that but it honestly helped me out tremendously and actually was a main point to helping the wedding go so smoothly. My husband and I aren't exactly comfortable taking pictures and I was nervous because I wouldn't know how we were suppose to pose or anything like that. Makena made us feel comfortable and directed us for the photos, which took away any nervousness. She was so warm and friendly. We even had a lot of comments from our guests about how nice she was. Our pictures came out amazing. She gave us a sneak peak the morning after which was so awesome to get to show off. The pictures came back at a more than reasonable time and I was very impressed by them. Her work is amazing and she is just a great person all around. Anyone would be lucky to get to work with her. We look forward to working with her for any other photoshoots we have in the future and recommend her to everyone we can. Thank you Makena for all that you did for us. We are so lucky!

Elyse Bullard Photography

  • Serves Waukesha, WI

Why do I take photos? Well I’m glad you asked! When I was a teenager I was thrown from one of my horses and lost my long term memory. Thankfully my father was into photography and I notice that looking back at family photos helped to trigger my memory! With the fear of hitting my head and potentially loosing my memory again, I started taking photography classes and was obsessive about taking photos. Whenever I take photos for a client I remember how important it was to my recovery to have images of my life.

Elyse is the best. She is great with directing you into the perfect pose, always making sure you are show your best self. Her photography is natural and bright. I chose her for all our family photos and business photos because her editing and photography is timeless. She is great at getting everyone's attention and keeps things moving. Friendly, personable, reliable, basically every positive word describes Elyse and her photography! It's always hard to pick favorites when we get our galleries!

Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

We searched for a photographer for our Lake Geneva wedding but it was a bit difficult as we both live in Chicago. Luckily, I had read some really great reviews about Ari Rosenthal Photographers and was thrilled when I talked with Ari.

Even when the lighting in our church ceremony was less than ideal, she put in so much extra time and effort to make them as good as they could be.

I am a high school science teacher during the school year but always seem to find time for sessions all year round. My husband and I currently live in Oostburg, WI and couldn't be happier with the surrounding areas - near Milwaukee, Green Bay, and even Madison but LOVE to travel and explore! Whatever your vision for your wedding, event, or special session, I am willing to make it happen! Check out my website and email me!

Steph and her second photographer were so easy to work with! Steph was organized and ensured both mothers and myself got every picture we wanted. She went to the venue prior to the wedding to scout out the best places for pictures and ensured our shot list was accurate and complete. Within 24 hours of the wedding she gave us roughly 20 sneak peak pictures that were all PERFECT! I can't wait to see the full gallery when it is done. She braved the cold lake michigan wind with us to ensure we had beautiful outdoor pictures as well. I couldn't be happier with the beautiful work she did. I 10/10 recommend working with Steph!

They were encouraging with the clients, provided direction with getting a variety of different shots, and actively communicated with me (Day-of Coordinator) to ensure the wedding team was on the same page. They provided the clients with STUNNING photos (teaser photos were provide a day or two after).

Hey lovely couples! My name is Jordan, and I’m so excited you’re here! I love engagement & wedding photography. It’s definitely my niche. I enjoy capturing the love, the details, the emotions & the raw moments on your special day.

Precious Pearl Photography LLC was a dream to work with for our wedding day. From our first interaction, the team was incredibly helpful, fast to respond, and genuinely friendly. Their high-quality work and personable approach made the picture-taking process easy and comfortable, even for someone like me who can feel a bit awkward in front of the camera. Precious Pearl felt like working with a long-time friend - she found ways to make us feel at ease and the final photos turned out beautifully. We are thrilled with the memories they captured of our special day.

I've been photographing weddings and love stories for ten years and have captured 200+ wedding days. After photographing my very first wedding for a dear friend, I couldn't believe how much I LOVED photographing wedding days. To tell each couple's completely unique and beautiful love story from behind my camera...there is no greater honor and joy!

Awarded Best of Zola
First, I am SO incredibly happy I went with Winterlyn to capture my wedding day! As soon as she got to the venue, she went to work and did not stop until she left for the night. I appreciated her work ethic, professionalism, advice, and creativity. Her personality made it easy to have a great day, even in the midst of a little chaos. Also, I have to mention her second shooter, Antwonette, was a pleasure to work with as well! Second, the sneak peak pictures....BLEW ME AWAY! I wanted light, airy, magical pictures, and she delivered beyond my wildest dreams (and I only have seen the sneak peaks). Between the detail pictures, portraits, groups, ceremony and reception, Winter sure knows how to capture the magic of a wedding. If you are looking for a photographer, Winterlyn is hands down the best! Thank you for everything Winterlyn!

Mia Freeman Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer!!! From our engagement photos over a year before our wedding to the wedding day, Mia was professional, thorough, and attentive. She expertly managed large groups of people during our wedding day, keeping everyone on schedule and taking flawless, timeless photos that we will treasure forever. Mia even hiked down a steep riverbank to capture our dream photos, and she dealt with unexpected challenges like a medical emergency and rain showers with grace and poise, ensuring that we felt calm and supported throughout our special day. Mia's passion for her work shone through as she became the ultimate hype woman, keeping us all energized and excited. We are overjoyed with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for the rest of our lives!

My husband and I were lucky to use Nick as our photographer for our wedding in March 2023. Nick reached out to us beforehand to ask detailed questions to get know us as a couple and to understand what kind of pictures we were looking for. The day of our wedding he was very well prepared and created a very calm environment that helped bring out the best in us. When we received our pictures back it was everything we wanted plus more. He did an excellent job and captured what we envisioned perfectly. There were many candid pictures of not only us but our family and friends that we’ll cherish forever. We are planning to keep using Nick in the future as our family grows.

He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Five stars all around for honestly the best human and wedding photographer. We did three shoots with Jason since his pricing is so fair. We loved all of them! He’s so good with seeing the perfect backdrop where you’d never think one exists. And it was so meaningful to watch his style develop over the years that we’ve been working with him. We hope to always lean on him to capture our special occasions and moments. Thank you Jason from the bottom of our hearts for helping us hold onto the best times of our lives!
