Hey! I’m Mikaila
a wedding photographer based in Wisconsin smack dab in the middle of two of the greatest cities in the Midwest—Chicago and Milwaukee. But there’s nothing stopping me from hopping on a plane for your destination wedding!
Photography is 1,000,000% my dream job. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography degree from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. Choosing to follow my dream and invest in my education was, hands down, the best decision I could have made. It is the joy of my life to use my love and experience to photograph beautiful milestones in people’s lives!!
Let’s Work Together
I have been with my (now fiancé!!) Thomas for 7 years, so I also know a thing or two about long-term relationships.
We love spending time together, and our favorite date nights are spent catching new movies at the theater! We also LOVE food, so we try new restaurants regularly—both locally and while traveling. I also enjoy watching reality TV and clearing my head by walking or running by the lake while listening to a good playlist!
Travel truly fills my cup and is important to me because experiencing new things makes me thrive. I’m also super passionate about family and friends because they matter most in life. I’m fortunate to have incredible parents who taught me how to love people deeply and even luckier to have found a partner who values being close with family as much as I do!
A Few Things You Should Know:
Reality TV is literally my love language. Some of my favorites are Survivor, Selling Sunset, and The Bachelor!!
I can’t sit down to edit photos without a homemade iced latte made with my Nespresso. I’m obsessed.
My go-to drink order is an espresso martini or a glass of wine, depending on the night!
We are Cat parents to our babies Vino & Cookie. They make our life so much more full!
In my free time, I love watching travel vlogs on Youtube and living vicariously through other people. These Youtube vlogs inspired me to start my own Youtube channel!
What It’s Like to Work With Me
Finding totally in love couples who deeply value photography is the greatest gift I could receive as a photographer.
When you work with me, you’ll be working with someone who won’t ever take for granted the fact that you’re trusting me with your most important memories. I build relationships with each of my couples so that I can honor your connection with your partner through photos that will last a lifetime. I promise I will do everything I can to make you extremely comfortable in front of the camera so that your experience can be laid back and stress-free! Ready to work with someone who will grab drinks with you after your engagement session and text you about the latest episode of The Bachelor?
