  • Serves West Bend, WI

Hi, I’m Kelsey! I am a wedding photographer! I am obsessed with dogs. I will never not acknowledge a dog near me by saying “puppers”. It is what it is. I would 100% rather be on the beach somewhere with palm trees. I am constantly daydreaming about being in the tropics. I love the color black. If we work together, there is a high chance that will be my outfit color of choice.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey was so easy and fun to work with. She had so many great ideas for different photos and was so easy to communicate with. Our wedding and engagement pictures turned out way better than I could have ever asked for. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs engagement, wedding or even family photos done.

When it comes to the wedding day, as vendors it’s very important to form a cohesive unit in order to give the bride and groom your absolute best. Taber was amazing to work with! She made sure to include me (videographer) in all of the plans for the day making it easy to capture all of the special & intimate moments.

Over 200 times since 2013, I’ve hopped out of bed in the morning with butterflies in my stomach & stars in my eyes as I’ve loaded up my camera bag & headed out the door to capture a beautiful wedding day. I help sophisticated couples like you celebrate this iconic chapter in your journey by creating sincere images that look & feel true to life, & true to you. Your love story is anything but ordinary, & you can trust that I will celebrate your connection with creativity & poise, in its own, unrivaled way.  Depend on me to ensure a relaxed & joyful experience that will transform the fleeting moments of your wedding day into treasured heirlooms.

Andrea is truly talented at capturing such natural unstaged moments. I had this dream that I wanted to have a classic car show experience at our wedding. Andrea immediately took our vision and left us with unforgettable memories hanging on our living room wall of us in our pink 57 Cadillac. Taking photos can be awkward but she surely makes it fun and you won’t regret the final product. Highly recommend her for any photography needs.

Welcome! I'm Steve! Creativity should be about showing you the usual things unusually. It should be about using everything at that moment to produce something unique...ultimately, it's about dragging your client towards something bigger and better than they expect. It's about giving them experiences and photographs that belong on rock albums and movie posters!

Wow. I am blown away by the pictures and service we received working with Steve! At his price point, he's really unbeatable. Plus, and this is a big plus, YOU WILL HAVE FUN. We laughed our entire engagement session and our wedding day was beyond stress free. His website focuses more on the goofy pictures, but do not worry - you will get GORGEOUS classic pictures as well as those fun candids. AND you get the pictures back next day??? Stop looking and BOOK HIM

Three: Seventeen Photography Llc 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves West Bend, WI

I want to capture all those candid, in-between, beautiful, genuine moments that are more meaningful in every single way. I want to capture both the silent and still moments and also the inevitable dance-off that is bound to happen now that all your old class-mates are together again. Essentially, what I really want to give you is something more. What I really want to give you is something to look at it years from now that triggers those goosebumps, those tears of joy, those bouts of laughter and has you truly remembering how this day felt.

I worked with Three: Seventeen Photography LLC in 2019 on what was the hottest and rainiest days of the year. The original wedding was supposed to take place in an outside portion of the venue but had to be switched very quickly due to heat and severe storms. As a wedding planner it is always great to have vendors like Three: Seventeen Photography be able to pivot and work with the changes at hand. Not only did they step up when needed, they also worked on finding alternative photography locations on the spot due to the weather. They are professional and provided excellent service to the happy couple and I would recommend them to any future couple in need of a top quality photographer.

From stolen glances to cheeky kisses and getting loose on the dance floor, I'll be there to document your love story. I'll even make sure to snap authentic moments that may've slipped by unnoticed - they're the best ones! Whether you want me to inconspicuously lurk in the shadows, snapping candid shots, or be right up front, rounding everyone up for group photos, I'll be the chameleon you need on the day. 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.

When it comes to photography, I want to provide you with images that make you feel something. Things I love when creating images.... great lighting interesting lines, symmetry, framing for unique composition humor emotions (crying, laughing, etc.) clients that trust me to give them something unique & fun

Our venue, Circa on Seventh, has been open for over 7 years, and Shannon has been one of our absolute favorites to work with over the years! She is so sweet to everyone, and always someone to jump in to help with anything --- pinning groomsmen boutonnieres, bustling the brides dress, repining a bridesmaids hair --- anything needed to make sure everyone looks absolutely perfect for photos. Not to mention how she captures every little hidden moment of your day --- the look on your love's face when they see you for the first time, a quick hand squeeze between your parents as you say "I do", your niece spinning around in her flower girl dress on the dancefloor... she knows just where to point her camera to capture those special hidden moments, perfectly. She's great! :)

As a photographer, participating in your wedding and seeing you begin your own journey of commitment to each other is a true honor. Being invited to a cherished event with your friends and family, and asked to commemorate that event through photography for future generations is not a responsibility that I take lightly.

I’m really happy with my wedding photos from KC Photography! We got married in a non-traditional location, but you can’t tell from the photographs. They are just as lovely as church wedding photos! My sparkler exit went by so fast - but I’m lucky to have a glimpse of that moment documented forever in my wedding album.

  • Serves West Bend, WI

I’m Yeri (pronounced yeh-dee), and I’m a photographer based out of a city right in between Chicago and Milwaukee (best of both worlds, if you ask me!). I’m a total extrovert, a big time hugger and totally not your typical show-up-to-a-shoot-and-leave-right-away type of girl. From the moment you inquire, to even after our work together is done, I got your back! We’ll have coffee together (or if it’s an old fashioned, even better!), we’ll talk, we’ll plan and find out how I could best serve you.

Yeri Photo Co. was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. Their communication throughout the entire process was consistent, fun, and professional - putting us at ease every step of the way. The quality of their work was simply spectacular, capturing the true essence of our special day with an unparalleled attention to detail. Yeri Photo Co. brought an incredible energy that made our wedding day photography feel less serious and more fun, allowing our personalities to shine through in the most beautiful photos. We could not have asked for a better photography team, and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for the best wedding photos.

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!

Portraits by Sean was truly a blessing from the Lord for our wedding! Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones.

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 12 years. I'm consistent not in a trend of photos or style, but emotions. Each wedding and couples are so unique and my work follows that. In my career I've photographed both big production weddings and also intimate DIY ones. I've photographed informal engagements and elopements/weddings in a desert in Chile, in the mountains of Zion, in a beach in Croatia, in an ancient church in Greece and in forests in Brazil. I work with all different budgets and needs from my brides. I'm a preferred vendor of Chicago First Lady Boat, so I do weddings on the boat during the summer.

One thing’s certain: she will absolutely blow your mind.
