You’re not alone! I've heard many couples talk about how they want their experience to feel real and not forced.
With an energetic, candid style, I’ll help you ditch the awkward poses and capture your actual vibe—silly laughs, quiet moments, and all the wildly good stuff in between.
As a Lake Geneva couples photographer, I keep things relaxed and real—whether you’re cozying up at your favorite coffee shop, walking hand-in-hand by the lake, or just being your goofy selves. I’ll guide you just enough while letting your story unfold naturally.
After the magic happens at your session, you’ll get a gallery filled with variety—from timeless lifestyle photos to my signature experimental shots that feel like art and bring the emotions right back every time you look at them.
Not in Lake Geneva? No worries! I photograph couples all across Southern Wisconsin, Northern Illinois, and beyond. If you’ve got a love story, I’m there.
Worried your photos will feel awkward or too posed?
Your badass story, love in every frame
These are my core values as a lifestyle photographer:
Real Over Perfect: The best shots aren’t staged, they just happen.
Creativity Without Rules: Blur, motion, composites. Whatever tells the best story!
Feel Something: Your photos should bring back the exact energy of that moment.
Always Be You: The more personality, the better.
Adventure + Connection: Whether it’s a Lake Geneva photography session or a road trip to the perfect backdrop, I’ll meet you where the magic happens.
To celebrate the anniversary of our engagement, I took my husband and my camera back to the spot where we got engaged. We splashed around in the Willow Flowage, danced like goofballs, and laughed our way through every self-timed shot. The light was beautiful, the memories even better—perfectly us.
So you can stop stressing and start getting excited.
1. Say Hey (aka: Book Your Session)
Reach out and tell me a little about you two—how you met, your vibe, and what you’re dreaming up for your session. I’ll get back to you with all the info you need to book and feel 100% good about it.
2. Set the Vibe (Session Planning)
Once you're locked in, we’ll chat about location ideas (like golden hour by the lake or your go-to coffee shop), outfit inspo, and the overall feel you want. Not sure? No stress—I’ll help guide you through it all.
3. Let’s Gooo (Shoot Day!)
This is the fun part. You two just show up, be your goofy/lovey/awesome selves, and I’ll do the rest. I’ll give light direction and help guide you when needed so we can capture the real stuff that makes your story yours.
4. The Magic Happens (Editing + Delivery)
After our session, I’ll handpick the best moments and give them the full Krop Kreative treatment. You’ll get a gallery filled with variety—color edits, black-and-whites, experimental shots—delivered straight to your inbox in a few weeks.
5. Make It Tangible (Print Options)
Want more than digital? I got you. You’ll have the option to order professional-quality prints, albums, and wall art directly from your gallery. Because your love deserves more than a camera roll scroll.
What to Expect!
Planning a surprise engagement?
Whether you’re popping the question by the lake or planning something epic, I’ve got you covered. As a Lake Geneva engagement photographer (and secret-keeper extraordinaire), I’ll help you plan the perfect moment and capture it all without ruining the surprise. From location ideas to timing tips, I’ll help you pull it off—and then we’ll snap a few cozy, just-engaged shots to celebrate.
What's it like to work with me?
Stress-free from start to finish: I’ll communicate with you clearly from day one, so you know what to expect before, during, and after your session. You’ll feel confident walking in, and even more excited once you get your gallery back.
Posing help? I got you: Think of me as your hype girl and your guide. I’ll help you feel comfortable in front of the camera with simple direction, lots of laughs, and a few ridiculous stories if that’s what it takes. I’ve been known to dance around, crouch in bushes, and even jump in the water—whatever it takes to get the shot. Bonus: I come fully prepared with a 'photo emergency kit' just in case.
No cookie-cutter photos here: Your love story is one of a kind, and your photos should be too, which means no two sessions are the same. I’ll be real with you about what creative ideas work best for your location and light. If you’re into a certain experimental technique, just let me know and I'll try to make it happen.
What you'll get in your gallery: Every session is different, but I always aim to deliver a full, rich story—not just a few highlights. Depending on the session and length, you can expect anywhere from 50 to 200 edited photos, with a mix of color, black-and-white, and experimental shots. Plus, I usually sneak in a few surprises, too.
