Hello! I’m Karly, a full-time Wisconsin Wedding Photographer and Wisconsin Family Photographer.
I love capturing weddings and families in a natural and organic way. I’m a light chaser above all and will seek it always. Photographing people and encouraging connection is my true joy. Big moments in life, like weddings are so important but so are the small moments between families… both become heirlooms and family legacy. It’s my honor to create those for each and every one of my clients.
Wedding Day Photojournalism
I love storytelling… weddings are such important moments for not only a couple for families. I love the traditions… the anticipation… the connections. When a mother helps her son straighten his tie before he walks down the isle, or when the father of the bride stands quietly near the end of the isle taking in the grandness of day… let’s just say I’ve been known to shed a tear or 10 right along with you. Wedding day’s are filled with so much. Wisconsin has the best of both worlds for midwest brides the Capital offers such an amazing backdrop with tons of inspiration all around the beautiful city and then … the event barns… y.e.s! Oh how I LOVE getting to photograph a wedding on working farm. The animals + country air… I can’t get enough. I spend tons of time photographing clients on my childhood horse farm too. Midwest is truly best y’all. Creating family heirloom images to last a lifetime, that’s what it is all about. Images that will bring you right back… remember it all.
My approach to family photography…
Do you have little ones who HATE posing for photos? Me too!! Instead let’s document your real life. Your kids in their natural habitat – if you will… Think back to your childhood and the images you have. My favorite photos from my past are the ones with clues in the background. The way our living room looked next to the family Christmas tree and me in my favorite t-shirt in third grade. Gosh how I loved that shirt. Those photo’s really bring me back to the moment. I want to come in and help capture this moment in time for you & your family. I’ll give you images that will be filled with connection and your REAL LIFE. Lets come together and figure out the story you need to tell. What about kids marching around the living room in their most favorite t-shirt? You know, the one you have to wash every third day while they sleep because it just isn’t worth the fight. One day your living room floor will be free of toys, and the much loved t-shirt will be long gone but the images we create will last a lifetime. In short I’m a visual storyteller. I focus on the big moments & the small moments too… sometimes those small moments turn into big ones before we know it. Contact me, I’d love to tell your story.
