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 is amazing!!! We got married in January and did photos outside. Everyone was freezing and Kelsey made the experience fun, and didn’t complain about the cold once! She was so easy to work with and got along with our wedding party so well. Everyone loved her! Our photos are absolutely stunning and I am still obsessing over them a year later! I highly recommend Kelsey for all of your big life events that you want beautifully captured!

We booked Taber for our wedding. She was absolutely incredible. She arrived at the venue early, to capture my daughter's and I getting ready before the rest of my wedding party arrived and that was so special to me. Taber captured moments without us even realizing she was there, and those memories we will cherish forever. Our photos turned out absolutely breathtaking! She was so easy and fun to work with. She's professional, fun, experienced and knowledgeable. You will not be disappointed! We highly recommend Taber!

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.

Steve Bowman Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves West Bend, WI

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!

An Artist at the core and a Connection for life. My Wife found Steve through countless searches of different photographers. Upon an exhausting search she/we struck gold! I will forever recommend Steve to others and like a barber I will never find a new one to replace the perfectionism of life that Steve captures. Hes a perfect fit! It all started with a beautiful engagement shoot filled with creativity, laughs, professionalism, stories, and shared interests. Steve made us feel comfortable and confident to be taking photos. We had a few ideas but were happy to let the photographer guide us through the process. After all he is the professional. Through out the wedding Steve made guests feel comfortable, iconic, and look like rock stars. our photos turned out so beautiful. Like a ninja and wizard Steve lurked in the shadows and appeared when most needed. He graciously helped me get ready when I was a nervous wreck in the groom room. With his personality, camera set up, and knowledge there is no doubt in my mind that a session with him, wedding, engagement, family photos, is something worth more than money or pictures can buy. It’s a true experience.

  • 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.

“Natalie was an AMAZING photographer for our wedding! I would and have recommended her to all of my friends, and have seen her work several other weddings as well. She is incredibly professional and worked tirelessly all day for our big event, even pitching in with help setting up and tearing down. At the same time she had my bridesmaids and I laughing all day and was truly part of the joyful experience of our big day. Our photos were available soon after the wedding and each and every one of them was truly beautiful. Natalie knows how to capture the essence and personality of the couples she works with, and my hubby and I will treasure our wedding photos for the rest of our lives!”

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.

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.

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 are experts in photojournalism, offering couples an unmatched level of value for their wedding photography and video services.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

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.
