Ryan and his team are incredible! They are professional, creative, prompt, helpful, courteous, talented and FUN!!! They captured our wedding so beautifully.... it has been over a year since that day and I am still obsessed with our wedding photos! One of our groomsmen was quite a handful and Alex still managed to wrangle him and the rest of the guys when they had been drinking (think herding cats...lol) for group photos and they turned out great while also capturing some of the one groomsmen's shenanigans for laughs to be had for years to come. The beach had a bunch of people sitting on it and Ryan posed our group to conceal all of the beachgoers! No editing needed! Ryan's night shot (gorgeous!!!) and some of our other favorites from the day still grace our living room wall in our home! Would hire this company again in an instant!!! The night shot won't load on this review page as it is apparently too many MB for this platform, but trust me when I say it is STUNNING.

Taylor is more than happy to work with you until you are 100% satisfied with your makeup. She is very friendly and pleasant to work with as well! I absolutely loved my airbrush makeup and it stayed on the entire day. On your wedding day it’s important to have someone reliable, and she is exactly that.

Emily Kettner Photography

Appleton, WI
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

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 to work with. She is kind, positive and very creative. I would recommend Emily to any couples looking to capture their day!

Whether you are just beginning to plan your wedding, or your big day is just around the corner, having an extra support person in your corner is always a great idea. Planning a wedding can be stressful at times, and for some brides, they don’t even know where to begin. I am here to help you at whatever level of assistance you might need! From picking a wedding date and a venue, and setting a budget, all the way to the big day - structuring the timeline and overseeing + managing your big day. All you need to do is show up and get married! Let me worry about the rest.

Brining Plus One Planning LLC on board for our wedding was actually the BEST decision we made. Meredith is a top notch professional. She knows all of the things wedding, event, and planning related, and she is ready to tailor it to your preferences. Big banger, small and intimate, any-budget, eco friendly, dog inclusive, you name it - she wants to know what YOU want, who you are, and she will support you to bring about your wedding in its truest form. We loved that she believes there is no right or wrong type of wedding - only your wedding! She helped us navigate what was important to us (local vendors, intimate celebration, nods to our dogs, relaxed atmosphere but elegant vibe), made sure we didn't miss any details or deadlines between planning and vendors, and was there to communicate and support us throughout the whole process. To this day one of my favorite things she did for us was create a beautiful color pallet for us to provide our families to help inspire their attire choices! She is so creative. Then on the day of she acted in her role as the "day-of-coordinator", something that I wish every couple had for their big day. It made all the difference. We didn't bat an eyelash, wonder, or worry. Everything was seen to, taken care of, and the day rolled on according to plan. Meredith made sure everything was lined up in advance: agenda, helpers, vendor arrivals, etc and her execution of the day was flawless. We were able to enjoy our day and EXPERIENCE our day without having to worry about logistics. To top it off, she is just good people. She is genuine, kind, and caring. She not only talks about taking care of our mental health during the wedding planning process, but she walks the walk. She provided us a great example and support for easing normal anxieties, navigating the array of emotions that comes with big life events, and someone to bounce ideas off when we just needed a little affirmation that yes. Wedding planning was seriously stress FREE, our wedding went off without a hitch, and we owe these things to our legend of a planner and friend - Meredith of Plus One Planning LLC. I would recommend her variety of services to anyone and everyone who will listen. We could not have done it without her!

I'm a Wisconsin-based photographer with a love for storytelling, genuine connection and finding magic in the in-between moments. I’m fueled by tacos, crispy Diet Coke, and golden hour magic. I believe your wedding day should feel like you—and your photos should, too. I photograph couples who don’t mind a little dirt on their dress or wind in their hair if it means chasing golden light. Couples who care more about being present than being perfect. This isn’t just about pretty photos—it’s about capturing your story in a way that feels like you, and having a dang good time doing it.

Kati is a phenomenal photographer! We felt at ease and like ourselves while she captured the magic of our most special day so beautifully. Kati and Chris did an exceptional job keeping track of desired photos and the schedule without making us feel rushed. We can't stop reliving our perfect day through Kati's lens!
