milwaukee family photographer
Hi, I'm Meredith. Your Milwaukee family photographer.
It’s already hard to remember what they were like just six months ago - I get it. As a busy mom of two little girls, I know how quickly time slips by, and how easy it is for the moments right in front of us to pass without being properly captured.
You do your best to capture the moments as they happen, but those quick snapshots pile up in the cloud. And turning them into something meaningful becomes another task on your full plate.
Those memories deserve to live in your home, on your walls, and woven into your family’s story. Preserved in a way that will help not only you remember what it was like, but your kids, and their kids too.
That's why I offer a full-service photography experience for families in Milwaukee and the surrounding areas.
I understand the daily balancing act of work, life, and kids - and how quickly “I’ll do this later” turns into months or years gone by.
You don’t have the time to plan a photoshoot, figure out what everyone should wear, sort through hundreds of images, decide where to print them, get the frames, design the album. And you shouldn’t have to.
That’s why I handle everything for you - from planning and styling guidance to finished artwork delivered to your home - so your family’s memories are preserved beautifully, without adding anything to your to-do list.
This season as it is, right now
Milwaukee family photos that are joyful, natural and full of life - your life.
My photography captures real emotion - laughter, hugs, movement and connection. I want you to remember exactly what this time with your kids feels like.
Your kids don’t need to sit perfectly still and smile on command. The most meaningful moments happen when they’re relaxed, curious, and free to be themselves. That’s where the genuine smiles live — and where the memories you’ll cherish most are found.
Life is full, and photos on phones get forgotten
- Location options that fit your family and your vision
- A styling guide and outfit guidance
- A comfortable photoshoot with natural, playful direction
- Custom printing, albums, and wall art curation
- Artwork delivered straight to your door
your milwaukee family photo session includes:
The Process
From the very first conversation, I will guide you through every step
STEP ONE
Initial Inquiry
The only step you take on your own is filling out the inquiry form and booking a call to chat with me. From there, I take it off of your plate! On our call we will talk through your vision for your family session and I'll walk you through booking details in a clear, simple way.
STEP TWO
Planning
As a full-service photographer, I guide you through the entire planning process so nothing feels overwhelming. We’ll cover everything needed to bring your session to life - from choosing the right location to wardrobe guidance and overall vision - all with your busy schedule in mind. You get thoughtful direction without having to figure it out yourself.
STEP three
Photoshoot Day
When session day arrives, your only job is to show up and enjoy your family. I’ll guide posing, keep things playful and natural, and interact with your kids in a way that feels relaxed and fun. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while I capture genuine moments and real connection.
STEP four
Creating Tangible Memories
After your session, we’ll schedule a reveal where you’ll view your images and choose the ones you love the most. Your selected photographs are professionally retouched and delivered as both digital files and beautiful matted prints. From there, you’ll decide which images to preserve as custom wall art or in a handcrafted heirloom album.
Creating Memories
They’re more than just your memories — these images become part of how your children remember their childhood too.
Prints & Products
Matted Prints
Heirloom Albums
Custom Wall Art
With every image bundle, you receive both the digital file and a professionally matted 8×10 print of each selected image. These prints are perfect for displaying throughout your home, sharing with loved ones, or giving as gifts — a simple, beautiful way to enjoy your memories every day.
Instead of scrolling on a phone, you can sit together and turn real pages. Share stories with your kids, relive favorite moments, and pass down a keepsake that grows more valuable with time. Each heirloom album is thoughtfully designed to tell your family’s story in a timeless, tangible way.
Your images deserve a place in your home. I work with a trusted local framer to ensure your wall art is expertly crafted and made to last. Each piece is custom framed, matted, and backed with care — then delivered straight to your doorstep.
They’re more than just your memories — these images become part of how your children remember their childhood too.

Signature Galleries
Every family has a story. Here are a few I’ve had the honor of capturing:

"We’ve been lucky enough to have Meredith capture our family for several years now, and we are so grateful for her! She is amazing to work with, so kind, patient, and great with our kids. Somehow she always manages to turn the chaos of family photos into beautiful, natural moments that feel so us. Every session is fun, relaxed, and leaves us with photos we’ll treasure forever. We truly couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing these memories for us!"
-Tera
"I can't say enough good things about Meredith. We hired her to take pictures of our extended family while we were on vacation in Wisconsin. She met us at our rental and did such a great job of making everyone feel comfortable. We had a long list of different pictures we wanted - large group shots to individual headshots. She got them all in. And the results were fantastic! Everyone feels good about how they look - a tall order from a group of 10 people. I would highly recommend Meredith!"
-E
"Meredith is an amazing family photographer! She walked us through outfit selection and background ideas before we even got to the session itself. During our photo shoot, she encouraged having fun (we decided why not be barefoot?), she was patient and helpful with our baby, and engaged with our toddler and our dog. She captured us as our most authentic selves...Not just flawless photography and great post-production editing, Meredith provides an entire package—an exceptional experience!"
-Shelly
"Meredith came to our vacation home on Lake Michigan and took family photos [for our 50th wedding anniversary]. She was so easy to work with...She was so friendly with all of us and was exceptional with the little ones...I was amazed at how she got good shots especially of the kiddos in group shots. Our 2 year old was smitten with her. She had reveal pictures ready within 2 days. Her shots were great. I can’t boast about her enough."
-Karen
