The Covenant at Murray Mansion Fall Wedding | Brandon + Carly
Carly and Brandon were married this past fall at the Covenant at Murray Mansion in Racine! Let’s just say that autumn in Wisconsin was showing off that Saturday and their wedding just magnified its beauty! From the full yellow foliage to the pops of orange in their flowers, October 22nd, 2022 could not have been more memorable! Their proposal story…
Pine Hills Country Club Wedding | Erika + Derek
Erika and Derek knew that incorporating both of their hometowns on their wedding day was very important. Therefore they decided to host their ceremony at Erika’s home church (in Cedarburg) and their reception in the city where Derek grew up (Sheboygan) at the Pine Hills Country Club. The whole wedding day was full of these sentimental and beautiful details that…
Winter Wedding at The Factory on Barclay | Amanda + Jake
When planning a winter wedding in Wisconsin, one typically hopes for snow but not a full-blown blizzard. Right? I can confidently say that the snowfall on Amanda and Jake’s wedding day was the BEST case scenario. As the day unfolded, we were presented with big fluffy snowflakes that fell softly to the ground AND small dainty ones that didn’t distract us during formal…
October wedding day at Fete of Wales | Jason + Dani
As I sit down to reflect on Dani and Jason’s October wedding day at Fete of Wales, I can honestly say that their wedding day was FULL of emotions and experiences that you would experience when falling in love; butterflies, awestruck, happy tears, full belly laugher, honesty, intimacy, inside jokes/memories, and happy-fueled dance moves. Speaking of dance moves, Dani…
Dog-friendly Engagement Session | Cammie + Eric
Can you include your doggos in your engagement session with Grace Creatives? Yes! 🙂 Although dogs aren’t allowed at Retzer Nature center, Cammie and Eric knew that they wanted to invite their dog, Leroy, along for the last bit of their dog-friendly engagement session. The images of this sweet family of three walking on the public land adjacent from their home are some…
Wauwatosa In-home Newborn Session | Elodie
Remember that one time that I documented Hannah and Anthony’s birth announcement? What about that time I photographed their summer maternity session? Well folks, the anticipation and wait is over. It is time to celebrate because Baby Elodie is here, healthy, and as her parents put it ‘full of sass’! Grace Creatives thoroughly enjoyed getting to know newly formed family of three and documenting…
Summer Wedding at Grand Geneva | Kasie + Nick
Kasie and Nick chose to get ready, document formal portraits, exchange vows, and host their reception ALL at Grand Geneva in Lake Geneva, WI. That being said, their day was relaxing yet full of fun and intentional moments with their friends and family. Huge congrats to Kasie and Nick as they celebrated their marriage at Grand Geneva. I loved getting to…
Creamery 201 Spring Wedding | LeeAnn + Josh
LeeAnn and Josh had a beautiful spring wedding at Creamery 201 in Fort Atkinson. Although, it was certainly a fun and well welcome celebration of their love, this Creamery 201 spring wedding wasn’t the original plan LeeAnn and Josh had pictured. These two had planned on getting married in May of 2020. Because of the pandemic, they postponed their celebration plans and…
New Berlin Orchard Newborn Family Session
What better way to welcome Spring and fresh beginnings than to photograph this new little one in a New Berlin Apple Orchard? This little one was born in the middle of March and by the time Grace Creatives’ “Apple Orchard Minis” rolled around in May she was ready to venture out and get some close-ups. Sam and Will, your daughter is simply and wonderfully…
Nippersink Spring Wedding | Kali + Sean
Congratulations to Kali and Sean! These two were married on a beautiful spring day at Nippersink Golf Resort in Genoa City, Wisconsin.

Hoyt Park Pregnancy Announcement | Hannah + Anthony
Hannah and Anthony are expecting their first child and I am so honored that Grace Creatives Photography was able to capture their pregnancy announcement photos at Hoyt Park!

Milwaukee Nine-Month Baby Photos | Harrison David
This past week, I loved capturing Harrison David’s nine-month milestone session!

By the next time Grace Creatives photographs this little guy I am sure he’ll be taking some of his first steps and perhaps even a little bit more difficult to…
