My husband and I absolutely adore Laura! We live in California, but go married "back home" in Wisconsin. We genuinely cannot recommend her more. Her work is worth the investment, ...
I promise you. Laura is reliable and what she produces is quality. From the very beginning it was evident Laura was undeniably talented at photography and that she has a passion for people. If her past work isn't proof enough, let me be the first to recommend you to hire Laura for your engagement photos, wedding or special event.
From the first meeting with had with Laura, we had full confidence in her and that she would make our engagement/wedding vision come true. Not only was Laura amazing to work with; detail oriented. timely, organized, but we became friends over time and had great conversations.
If you are not local to Wisconsin, do not let that hinder you from hiring her. Laura not only encouraged us to have her fly to Pismo Beach, CA (where we got engaged) to shoot our engagement photos, but made the planning process easy and seamless. She genuinely loves the opportunity to travel We shot all weekend and had many laughs along the way. Laura not only blew our expectations out of the water, but to this day, family and friends talk about our engagement photos and how amazing they are.
Our Wisconsin wedding just happened late Oct. 2023, so we are still awaiting our wedding photos, but I have no doubt that Laura will have done it again!
An honorable mention for Kyle, her husband and second shooter. He was also great to work with and brought humor to shoots. He was present at both our engagement shoot and wedding, it's evident the love and support he has for Laura.
I'm certain throughout the years that we will remain in contact with Laura, and we would love to have her someday do my maternity or family photos. I'm sure our family and friends will be reaching out as her newest clientele as well.
If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would!

Laura is amazing. I think her pictures and her eye for what makes a good picture speaks for itself. For me, what’s equally amazing is how understanding & flexible Laura has been th...
rough all of this. If you are looking for a photographer, go no further than Laura Lynn Rhode Photography.
Laura did both our engagement and wedding photos and she was incredible! She took scenes and props that we couldn’t imagine working and made them beautiful. Laura offered many sugg...
estions and poses and made us feel comfortable throughout our photos. When it came to sitting down to choose photos for our wedding album, it was truly difficult to choose as there were so many great shots amongst all the scenes we had.
Laura captured Pitcures of friends wedding and I adored her work. Once I got engaged and we picked a date for our wedding I knew I wanted to book a consultation with Laura. Booking...
your photographer can be daunting, it’s a large cost and a one time event. After meeting Laura the nervousness melted away. She had great questions and really cared about me. Laura is personable, kind and perfessional. I booked right away! Laura reached out periodically to see if I had any questions or concerns. The morning of my wedding I got the sweetest thoughtful text. (It’s really the little things. ) We love our pictures and I think our favorite product is the look books we got one from engagement session and our wedding. Our family absolutely loves them. I highly recommend Laura’s services!
WOW! We are so blessed and thankful to have had Laura as our engagement/wedding photographer! We were so happy with her work and with her creativity. She made our vision come to li...
fe and was so much more than we could have ever expected. We would recommend Laura and her team to anyone, and our photographs were talked about amongst many of our wedding guests. She’s not just a photographer; she takes time to get to know you and create your exact vision and make it absolutely perfect, and will go the extra mile! We cannot thank her enough for all her work! We WILL be using Laura again!
Where to even start! Laura is simply amazing! She did both our engagement and wedding photos and they all turned out phenomenal! She has such an eye for detail and is so creative ...
that you need never scroll through pinterest for photo ideas ever again. She goes above and beyond to make sure she not only captures the best moments, but also make you feel extremely comfortable at the same time. My fiance and I were both very nervous for our engagement photos, as we had never really posed for professional pictures beyond our high school senior photos. Laura made us feel completely comfortable and had us laughing the entire time, which if you have ever tried to fake a laugh for a photo you know it always turns out awful, but all of our laughing photos were natural and turned out amazing. She does this all while maintaining such a high level of professionalism. We have received so many compliments on our photos and had a very hard time picking our favorites because we love them all. We were truly blessed to have such an amazing photographer capture our memories that we will be able to look back on and enjoy for years to come.
Ooo we LOVE laura! :) She captured our special day~ wedding in 2012~ and the most beautiful pictures ever. She also has done newborn sessions and family portraits for us. She is so...
very personable, always took her time, and we knew and felt confident we would always love our photos! Laura is beyond talented and so proud and happy for u to find such great success! Love the Lillys ♥️♥️♥️
Laura is so talented she has a great eye for detail and is very creative. One thing that I love about her is her ability to make pictures from all of her clients unique to them. ...
You do not see repeated poses or the same shot being done over and over through out her clients. She is very easy to work with and gives you great direction. I have worked with Laura for my engagement and wedding photos and I was so pleased with both she doesn't just take pictures she captures memories. She was worth every penny and if I had to do it all over again hiring Laura for our photographer would be a no brainer.
Laura is a one stop shop if you’re looking for amazing photos that truly pop! It wasn’t until I saw Laura’s work that I realized all photography was most definitely not the same. ...
Whether it be on canvas or in print, one eye can see that it’s a shutter click or two above the rest! My wife and I are blessed to have Laura shoot our wedding and family vacation photos. Her work hangs beautifully on the walls of our house, sits on our end tables, and we forever hold it in our hearts. Photography is definitely Laura’s God-given talent and you can’t argue with that goodness! Highly recommend her work! She’s very down to earth, and has a gift of keeping peace and sanity of the wedding party and family while skillfully getting everyone in perfect positions for picture perfection.
I can honestly say that I am so blessed to have found Laura. The entire shoot was nothing but fun. She took "taking pictures" to the next level. EVERYBODY. I mean everybody was imp...
ressed by her. friends, family, strangers..etc. Her eye for scenery and poses is exceptional. What I thought would be a photography nightmare was her favorite spot! and the pictures were insanely gorgeous! She was is a blessing in disguise for us. Every time I look at my pictures I thank Laura and everything she did and has done for us. Any time I need professional photographs done again, she will be the lady I call! I honestly would look no further for a photographer. If shes available for you- HIRE HER! you truly wont find anyone better than Laura. <3

r family photos as well. There is no one else that compares to her quality of work. Her attention to detail and patience is remarkable. We have always been so happy with our final results.
If you are looking for a talented, professional photographer you’ve come to the right place. No buddy will work harder on your special day then Laura! I see first hand the time an...
d effort she puts into each wedding. She will work extremely hard before your wedding (proper prep), during your wedding, and after ( with custom artwork for your viewing pleasures.)
I cannot recommend Laura more! For our wedding, she knew what questions to ask to find out what was important to us, and then went above and beyond what we expected! We had an unco...
nventional venue and she came up with creative poses, angles, and even color combinations that ended up creating such beautiful photos! Laura is sweet and soft which is so nice to have on your special day, but at the same time professional and in charge which is so important when having to direct many friends and family members. She isn’t afraid to do what it takes to get the shot but it never felt like she was in the way or took away from a moment. Her editing was on spot and in a timely manner. We were given so many more perfect photos than I expected. With a day that seems to fly by, I truly feel like I can relive it again and again with my wedding photo collection!
I’ve been privileged to follow Laura’s photography career from the beginning and also have her as my own wedding photographer! I didn’t pick an easy wedding day, but Laura knew how...
important it was to me to have her there, so she made it work and I am forever thankful! Her zeal for her craft has never waivered over the years! She is creative, adaptable, professional, and incredibly personable and caring! She will take every desired detail into account for any of her clients and do whatever is in her power to deliver!
Words cannot even describe how incredibly talented and gifted Laura is. The first two pictures showcased on this are from our wedding. Laura from the beginning created a smooth pro...
cess for us and never was there a bump in the road for our big day. She is one of the easiest people to work with and not to mention God blessed her with a beautiful soul. You will never be disappointed. She will go above and beyond. She chased us through my grandmothers greenhouse for my crazy idea and had my husband and I twirl in a compost pile that ended up to be one of my favorite from our engagement photos. She also surprised the day of our viewing with a video she made for us. We did not have a videographer the day of our wedding and she made something we will cherish for a lifetime. She watched us cry happy tears all day at our wedding and *BAM* here we both were crying again over how beautiful this video was. She has taken all of our professional photos for years now. From my baby’s bewborns, to a mommy and me, to our engagement and wedding. I always have the faith that she will give us those magical images. You will not find better. She is the best. I’m so lucky to not only have had a great photographer, but to have gained a friend along the way. I could not appreciate her more for all the hard work she has put into all of our sessions and will in the future.
Laura is truly the best! She made us feel so comfortable every step of the way. Laura was always available to answer the question we had. Our wedding party absolutely loved her as...
well! They still talk about how much fun she was. Our pictures turned out AMAZING. I am still so obsessed with them. I recommend Laura to everyone looking for a photographer. She is sweet, caring, and creative! I still thank her every time I go through our engagement and wedding photos.
