Featured Milwaukee Area Photographers
Melissa Morgan Photography
I inherited my passion for photography from my mother, who filled and narrated dozens of photo albums for my sister and me while we were growing up. She made me appreciate how photography can be a diary of life’s most precious moments, and for that I am eternally grateful. Having cherished images of your family’s beautiful memories is an investment of your time, energy and love, but something that you will never regret. I would love to be the one to document these moments for you.

Talia Laird Photography
I specialize in timeless, fine art photography and my passion is telling stories with my images of families, newborns, and maternity clients in Lake Country.
Before becoming a photographer, I was a mom first. As a mom, I quickly realized that those sweet little babies don’t keep. And that is where my passion for photography turned into an exclusive luxurious family photography experience. My clients finish their experience with luxury heirloom quality, one-of-a-kind artwork displaying in their homes.

Lulu B Photography
I have always been interested in photography, a hobby I’ve inherited from my father. Before I was blessed with my children, I bought a camera and started shooting my nephews at their sporting events. Once my children were born, I always had my camera in hand. It was only recently I realized I could share my talent with other families.

Katie Bingen Photography, LLC
My vision is capturing your family ‘in the now’. To remember the little moments, the ones you’ll look back on years from now… and smile remembering how your little one looked up to you – or – loved being twirled around by dad. The connection between you and your loved ones is what I strive to capture. I would LOVE to meet you and capture YOUR story, YOUR now.

Lindsay Stayton Photography LLC
Moments in life should be an adventure! My photography is described as lifestyle, creative, candid, authentic, and documentary. I capture the moments that can easily be missed. Ultimately, is’s not about me, it is about photographing you in the real and raw moments life has to offer. I want to laugh with you, hike with you, run with you, skip with you, get grass stains with you, even cry with you.
During our time together, you will be you, I will be me. We will make moments to remember you as your most authentic selves. Life is a journey and I love being part of yours, for even a moment. As a photographer, I specialize in weddings and families. My business is based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. However, I am up for any adventure and travel that life has to offer.

Stephanie Joy Photography
I’m Stephanie! A coffee addict and photographer living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my extremely supportive husband, two adorable sons, and a couple of goofy pups. Photography has always been a big part of my life, but it wasn’t until 2015 when I made it a point to leave my windowless desk job behind and take the leap to begin my photography business journey. I specialize in lifestyle and portrait photography for families, children, couples, seniors, maternity, and newborns. It’s my goal to capture raw emotion and true genuine smiles in a laid back, non-intimidating way. Whether you choose an outdoor location of your choice or the comfort of your own home, your family is meant to be captured naturally and authentically!

Kari Gierach Photography LLC
I am a Milwaukee based (born and raised) photographer, mom to two wild-haired kids and wife to an awesome hard working guy. I lost my mom to cancer when I was 13. Losing her has taught me to take nothing for granted. I try to live each day with intention and love, quickly leaving grudges behind, which is how I know she would want my siblings and I to live our lives!
I specialize in capturing real-life, unposed, candid photos of you and your loved ones. Every day life, the birth of your child, celebrations or events. If you are looking for a laid-back photographer to capture these incredible moments in your life, I’m your gal!

Vanessa Wyler Photography
I’m a lifestyle photographer located in Pewaukee, Wisconsin serving the greater Milwaukee/Waukesha area specializing in children, families, newborns and maternity portraits. My goal as a photographer is to capture your story, the real moments you cherish with your family. I’ll capture the way your daughter loves to give you butterfly kisses, the way your son holds his daddy’s hand, and that newborn-love that fills your eyes once your little one arrives and snuggled up on your chest. Nothing excites me more than capturing those un-planned moments and the little details, even the craziness you call your family Those moments, sometimes the littlest, are what mean the most!

Hefferilt Photography
Maggie Wetherilt believes photography is something special that goes beyond just snapping a nice picture. “I do photography because I want to capture and share people’s stories. I am passionate about capturing life as it happens. I adore capturing moments of shared life in all seasons of family living. From pregnancy, to life with a newborn, to everyday family life, I find stories of shared life to be beautiful and worthy of being captured and shared. Most of all I am passionate about documenting the journey of birth. Like all good stories the beginning matters a great deal. Birth is the beginning of motherhood, the start of a little one’s life, it is the first moments of a relational bonds that cannot be broken. Birth can tell the story of strength, love, pain, joy, hardship, freedom… A woman bringing life into this world is a great journey and no story is more unique. I am honored each time a woman invites me in to capture her birth story.”
