Hi, I'm Anne!
For nearly a decade, being a Wisconsin wedding photography has been more than my career, it’s been my creative home. My path here has been a little winding in the best way. I’ve lived in Minneapolis, Madison, Florida, and now Wild Rose, Wisconsin, collecting experiences and stories along the way that shape how I see the world and the people in it.
Before photography became my full-time world, I studied cosmetology at Aveda Minneapolis and later earned a business degree from Madison College. I also spent years speed bartending, which, if you’ve ever seen the pace of a wedding reception, feels a lot like training for wedding photography life. Quick thinking, reading a room, keeping the energy up, and making people feel comfortable? I’ve been practicing that since I was 18.
Today, I bring all of that into my work. I truly breathe, dream, and live for wedding photography. I’m head over heels for the whole experience — not just the art of the photographs themselves (though I love that part deeply), but everything that surrounds your wedding day. The planning, the anticipation, the tiny details, the big emotions; I love being there to support you through the entire journey.
• I live on a little hobby farm with donkeys, goats, chickens, cats, and one very spicy Pomeranian–Maltese puppy who absolutely runs the place.
• I adore live music shows with my fiancé, especially anything a little unique. New Orleans brass bands, heavy metal, funk? Sign us up.
• I’m a big plant lover with a small jungle corner in my home, and I’m cautiously optimistic that I’ve finally won the battle against my cats.
• Tennis is one of my favorite ways to get outside and move (and occasionally pretend I’m much better at it than I am).
• I regularly sing show tunes and Beatles songs to my donkeys. They seem to enjoy it… or at least they haven’t complained yet.
• My comfort show is Psych. “Gus, don’t be a gooey chocolate chip cookie.”
• I’m absolutely obsessed with audiobooks and go through about five a month. Strong female leads are my go-to, and I tend to rotate between thrillers and contemporary romance… because, you know, wedding photographer.
At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to create photographs that feel joyful, honest, and deeply connected to the story of your wedding day. I’ll be there to guide when you need it, cheer you on when the nerves kick in, and quietly document all the moments you never want to forget.
Because long after the music fades and the flowers are gone, your photographs will be the doorway back to the laughter, the connection, and the magic of the day you began your life together.

Planning a wedding can feel like a lot sometimes. Budgets, timelines, vendors, family dynamics; it’s a lot to juggle, and sometimes you just need to know someone has your back during the process.
After nearly a decade as a Wisconsin wedding photographer, I’ve gathered a lot of insight along the way. I genuinely love sharing that knowledge with my couples. From day one, I’m here to offer guidance, answer questions, and help you feel supported throughout the planning journey.
I might be the photographer for you if…
• You’d love a little extra help building your wedding day timeline so everything flows smoothly.
• The thought of being photographed feels a little intimidating, and you’d prefer a photographer who is more than willing to make a fool of herself first to break the ice. Trust me; zero judgment and all fun here.
• You’re drawn to a documentary or photojournalistic approach, and you love candid moments and emotive prompts more than stiff or awkward posing.
• You want a photographer who will quietly capture the real moments while also stepping in with guidance when it helps the day run smoothly.
Support From Day one.
Because when you feel comfortable, supported, and free to be yourselves, the photographs naturally follow.
Cree La Vie Studios celebrates diversity and believes love should always be honored and welcomed.
All couples and families are celebrated here; LGBTQIA+, people of color, people of all abilities, religions from around the world, bodies of every shape and size, couples young and young-at-heart, non-traditional families, and love in all its brilliant forms.
Whoever you are, and however you love, you are welcome here
