Emily Kettner Photography

Appleton, WI
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

I love photographing real moments of people in love. With me, I work hard for you to feel comfortable to be yourselves, so that I can capture the most creative, endearing swoon-worthy moments. My style is a mix of candid and editorial, and while I'll make certain to grab those mandatories with fam, the majority of your photos will be captured "moments" — especially between the bridal couple. My editorial-style wedding photography and engagement photos will capture those moments, those details, those looks you gave one another, that you may forget about 20 or 50 years from now, but will be able smile upon when you look at your wedding photos.

Emily is amazing to work with. She is kind, positive and very creative. I would recommend Emily to any couples looking to capture their day!

Capturing weddings since 2017, Sam is passionate about creating images that showcase the real you. Your wedding is an incredibly important event & you deserve to work with vendors you not only get along with, but trust completely & enjoy spending time with!

Awarded Best of Zola
We spent a LONG time researching a photographer/videographer. We agreed that this is what was the most important for us as it was the thing we get to keep forever. The style right now is dark, moody, and blurry, which isn't our style. We found Sam's photography to be vibrant, crisp, and fun. We noticed she captures people as they are. She isn't going to edit out cellulite or fix your hair if it is out of place, but we knew that ahead of time. We met and she took our engagement pictures, which turned out stunning. She finished everything in a timely manner. On our wedding day, she took pictures as well as another photographer Marissa, and Sam's husband Cory was the videographer. They made an awesome team. Marissa directed more than Sam with moving pieces of hair or turning necklaces. We were glad she came. Sam and Cory would have been great, but adding Marissa made it the 10/10. Our videos and pictures, as well as a book and metal print were all done and in our possession in a timely manner with LOTS of great communication. I am obsessed with them.

I'm a Wisconsin-based photographer with a love for storytelling, genuine connection and finding magic in the in-between moments. I’m fueled by tacos, crispy Diet Coke, and golden hour magic. I believe your wedding day should feel like you—and your photos should, too. I photograph couples who don’t mind a little dirt on their dress or wind in their hair if it means chasing golden light. Couples who care more about being present than being perfect. This isn’t just about pretty photos—it’s about capturing your story in a way that feels like you, and having a dang good time doing it.

Kati is a phenomenal photographer! We felt at ease and like ourselves while she captured the magic of our most special day so beautifully. Kati and Chris did an exceptional job keeping track of desired photos and the schedule without making us feel rushed. We can't stop reliving our perfect day through Kati's lens!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Appleton, WI

From the seating before the ceremony, to the last song of the night, I want to handle all your music and entertainment needs. Why hire multiple people for your music services when you can get it all in one place? It’s like playing telephone—more people means more communication, more of a time commitment, and unfortunately more money and mistakes. Things get lost in translation…. But not with me. Once hired, we have a meeting or two discussing what you want your wedding to look and sound like. After that, you can stop stressing about your music needs and just leave it up to me.

Our wedding day experience would not have been the same without Derek! He went above and beyond in making our day special and tailored to us. We gave him songs for the ceremony and he made them his own and added his own flare making them unique for our day. He also played live for our cocktail hour where I received several compliments from our guests. Finally he was our dj for the reception helping to announce our wedding party with enthusiasm and kept our guests packed on the dance floor all night. I would recommend Derek 100 times over! He was so easy and smooth to work with and an absolute joy to have. He even worked with my wedding party to record a song they wrote to surprise us with. I’ve been at other weddings and events that he’s done and the energy and professionalism he brings is always top notch. Derek puts his heart and soul into all he does and he's one of a kind! Book him! You won’t be disappointed!
