Jamie Kempen Photography

I want you to remember your wedding as the best day of your life, surrounded by the people you love, not as a photoshoot. My approach is simple: I let the moments breathe. I’m there to capture the laughter, the tears, the little in-between moments, and all the emotions of your day as they naturally unfold. I want you to be present enough to actually experience your wedding, while I quietly document the story happening around you. And when it’s time for portraits, I’m intentional. We’ll make the most of that time without letting it take over your day. I’ll guide you, keep things relaxed and fun, and make sure you get the beautiful portraits you’ll treasure without spending hours posing for them. Because your wedding isn’t a photoshoot. It’s a love story, surrounded by the people who came to celebrate it with you; You should be there for it. My home base is Appleton, Wisconsin, but that doesn’t mean I have to stay there. I’ve traveled throughout the state, photographing beautiful weddings in Madison, Milwaukee, Door County, Oshkosh, and beyond. My experience in the wedding industry means I know what to expect, but more importantly, I know what to do when the unexpected happens. Wedding days rarely go exactly according to plan, and that’s okay. I’m there to keep things moving, help you feel comfortable, and capture what matters along the way. From our first consultation to the delivery of your final gallery, I strive to make the entire experience easy. I’m quick and efficient with communication, and I want you to feel like you can ask me anything, anytime. If this sounds like the kind of wedding photography you’ve been looking for, I’d love to hear from you. Talk soon, Jamie Kempen
