Laura Schmitt Photography

We were beyond thrilled with working with Laura as our photographer for our reception! She was extremely professional and easy to work with, and was great at managing time during the reception and arranging our friends and family for the best portraits possible, plus she captured awesome candids. She was very considerate of getting as many shots that were important to us as possible, and captured all our favorite moments. Would definitely recommend!

Laura is the best photographer I could have ever dreamed! She was wonderful during the planning process and making sure to gather the details in advance of what we wanted and the our thoughts. The day of, her and her team helped make our day so special and run smoothly. We got all the photos we wanted, all the special and fun moments. They helped with everything from keeping us on time, wardrobe malfunction, lots of family, and everything in between. Her work is top notch, high quality, fabulous service, and amazing personality. 100% hire her!

I changed my wedding date so I could have Laura as my photographer. Yes, she is that good. With her incredible tallent, she captures more than just an image. If you want pictures that transport you back to your wedding day and bring tears to your eyes, hire Laura. Working with Laura is a breeze. She is flexible, always responds to messages and questions in a timely manner, and goes above and beyond in every aspect.

Laura is great to work with and such a sweet person!

If you are reading this right now this is your sign to stop looking and hire Laura. She is AMAZING!! Our first time meeting was on my wedding day and she was very friendly and ready to work! She got all the pictures I wanted and was polite to the older adults who were a little mean to get their perfect picture. The pictures take a little to get back to you, but it is completely worth it. There were some pictures that she missed, so I would have a paper copy of what you want. I recommend getting her and another photographer so you can have all the shots you want. Gosha is like a second mother so ask for her! I would also do an engagement photo shoot with her so you meet each other before the wedding day.

If you are looking for quality photos that capture your engagement pictures and wedding day in the best possible way, I would highly recommend you give Laura a call. We were recommended Laura by another photographer which I thought was an extremely high compliment for Laura. This was the best recommendation we received and couldn't be more happier with all the photo's/moments Laura was able to capture for our daughter's wedding (October, 2021)! Laura not only had amazing photo's, she worked very well with our video guys (ISP), had great communication, follow up, professionalism, punctual, thorough with all the photos we all wanted and was very flexible, which we all very much appreciated. We ordered photo's from Laura too, this was really important to us as we wanted to have great picture quality, clear and crisp images, it was worth every penny! Laura even put in the extra effort to make sure we got the photo's in time for Christmas. She is absolutely wonderful to work with! You definetly will be happy you chose her to capture your special day too!

Laura is a great photographer! She is very accommodating and fun to work with. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with how our engagement and wedding photos turned out!

Laura did an absolutely fantastic job on our wedding photos! She is personable, kind and a joy to work with! My husband is not a fan of pictures and Laura was able to get him to feel comfortable and get through the photos fast! I absolutely recommend Laura for all of your photography needs!

Laura's photography is fantastic! My husband and I aren't picture people normally, but Laura made us feel comfortable and posed us in beautifully natural ways. She also got great pictures of our dogs during our engagement shoot! Laura was also incredibly helpful on our wedding day and kept things organized and on schedule while always making sure I had what I needed.

Laura did an amazing job! She took the time to get to know both of us prior to our wedding and helped us decide what we'd like. On our wedding day, she was patient with us and had great interactions with the wedding party. She has a knack for catching natural moments and a great personal touch. Would highly recommend.

Laura was an amazing photographer who went above and beyond my expectations for our wedding. The details that she put into our day and the days/months leading up to the wedding were spectacular. She helped us achieve our vision during the day by offering suggestions and helping create a timeline for our day which made everything so much smoother. We got all the pictures we wanted - even with limited time! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer who will go out of her way to make your day everything you have dreamed.

Laura Schmitt Photography made our day go so smoothly! Laura helped us through the planning phase with photo ideas and helping us create a schedule to make sure we were able to have enough time to get our fabulous shots. She was so helpful while trying to plan our wedding photos with all of the unknowns with COVID-19 and was very flexible for which we could have not been more grateful. We are so happy with how she helped us capture our big day!

We booked Laura Schmitt Photography for our engagement and wedding photos in Green Bay and they were absolutely stunning! One of the things that drew me to Laura was her photojournalism style of photography and the quality of her images. I love that she is able to not only capture beautiful portraits, but also the candid images that capture the raw emotion of the day. She also did a fantastic job at capturing the small details of our wedding in beautiful images. During the planning process she was always quick to respond to emails, calls, texts, etc. and always had great suggestions on poses and locations. On the day of the wedding, our family and wedding party were incredibly impressed with how organized and detail-oriented Laura was, and how much she worked her butt off to get the perfect images. I loved how she routinely checked in on us during photos and at the reception to make sure we got all of the photos we wanted. We were absolutely thrilled when we got 900+ images back from our wedding – all of them incredibly high quality and absolutely stunning. We will cherish them forever. I cannot thank Laura enough and we will definitely be booking with her in the future!

Laura was just simply an amazing photographer to work with! We got married during Covid and she was so willing to work with us for what we specifically needed, and more importantly everyones safety. And the photos were an incredibly perfect way for us to remember our special day. Thank you so much!

Laura was the best to work with. With COVID-19 going on, our wedding date was changed three times. Laura was more than accommodating with every plan that we had for each of the days. When the big day came, she was all over the place taking incredible pictures. Looking back at all of the pictures, she captured everything. My husband and I were so happy to see those pictures and see what little parts we may have missed. Many people compliment about how she was all over and taking pictures of everyone. The pictures we have of are are so beautiful and choosing Laura was easily one of the best decisions we made with our wedding.

Laura is truly a angel. My husband and I had our photographer cancel on us three days before our wedding. We called up Laura and she was a true lifesaver. She was professional, understanding of our situation, and helpful. She was flexible in making arrangements for payment. She communicated efficiently, and was extremely knowledgeable. On our big day, she was pronominal at helping us capture every little detail. Laura goes above and beyond for her clients and without a doubt cares about doing the best job she can. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out and are forever grateful for Laura. If you are looking for a professional, caring, and friendly photographer then Laura is the lady for the job.

Laura was wonderful to work with! Her communication was consistent and reliable, and she was extremely flexible as we changed our wedding plans for COVID. She is very honest and a true professional, sharing her opinions with us to save us the most money and get the most out of our wedding day. Tons of beautiful pictures as expected. I was blown away by the quality and variety of her photos - over 800 were sent to us to chose from! She did our engagement and wedding photos.

We were married in July of 2019 shortly after a storm wreaked havoc on the Central Wisconsin area. We were without power for a few hours prior to our scheduled ceremony. Due to the weather, our options were limited for an outdoor shoot. Without power we had little lighting but she was able to arrange for a generator to power the lights and made the lobby of our hotel a great backdrop for photos. She was such a pro and managed to direct our family through an impromptu setup and location in short order. It never occurred to us that we might not have power prior to the wedding ceremony, and we never had to worry about it. Our first look shoot, captured by window light, turned out absolutely stunning. We've known Laura for a long time and she's a great friend. She was about four months pregnant and was able to capture each shot without hesitation. We are so thrilled with our photos and can't thank her enough for everything she did on our special day. We received so many compliments on both her manner throughout the day and the finished photos. She was very resourceful and went above and beyond. We were honored to have her photograph our wedding and we can't recommend her enough.

Laura is THE photographer to have capture your big day. We have received so many positive comments on the photos. Laura was great to work with ahead, during and after the big day. She knew all the right questions to help us clarify our expectations for the day of. Laura really helped us clarify what photos we wanted, which helped us plan the day of schedule very efficiently so we always felt present in the moment and didn't miss out on anything. She was willing to jump in our boat and go for a ride in the rain/mist. She was extra prepared with umbrellas as the weather changed on our outdoor ceremony. She was great with keeping the whole wedding party and extended family on task when it came to formal and informal pictures. She did a great job capturing our guests having fun during our reception. We will book photography services through Laura well into the future.

Laura is a wonderful photographer who did a great job capturing our wedding. We greatly appreciated her friendly and professional demeanor throughout the day. During our first look and couples photo shoot, she created lovely poses for us that felt authentic and turned out beautifully. Throughout the rest of the day, she made sure to capture all of the necessary/requested images without ever disrupting the flow of the event or being intrusive. Weeks later when we received the photos, we were impressed with the quality and style of the photography. We will always treasure our wedding pictures, and we have Laura to thank!

Laura photographed our Summer 2019 wedding and we could not be more happy about our decision to hire her! Laura made us feel comfortable and at ease. She is well organized, punctual, and is incredibly talented at what she does. We feel like Laura captured our day so perfectly from start to finish, making it nearly impossible to pick our favorite photos! We would highly recommend Laura and can't wait for her to photograph our family in the future!

Laura photographed our wedding in May of 2019. If you’re looking for someone who makes wedding planning easier rather than more stressful she’s your lady! Laura was very organized and efficient which I appreciated immensely. She accommodate our somewhat unique request and the photos turned out incredibly beautiful. We moved the ceremony inside last minute and she was very accommodating and still willing to stand in the cold rain for outdoor pictures. Her price was fair and she was lovely to work with. Thank you Laura!!

Laura is well worth the price. Our photos are all beautiful and she captured very natural, affectionate moments just like I imagined. I love the way she uses sunlight and color in the photos. She was great to work in person and via phone/email to respond to questions. For our engagement photos, Laura was willing to drive to Winona so that we could have our session in the city where Ryan and I met. Then on the day of our wedding she was such a pro. It rained during our ceremony, but she had no hesitation about getting into the mud for a good shot when taking group photos afterwards. She also managed to wrangle my husband's extremely large and absent-minded family together for a photo, and made an extra stop to get photos with Ryan's grandfather who was too frail to attend the wedding. I would love to work with Laura again and will definitely recommend her to friends and family.

I highly recommend Laura for a wedding!!! She made sure to gather people for all the group photos I asked for and kept us on schedule. I asked her to capture the day in a natural way, and she really did. I never saw her during the ceremony. She must have been sneaky because she never missed a thing. I love that she caught everything I didn’t notice throughout the day. We did outdoor winter photos as well. With the snow and sunset, everyone loved the photos!

I absolutely loved having Laura Schmitt as my photographer. She was so professional and kind throughout the entire wedding. Her pictures turned out amazing! She was great at keeping us on task and punctual while still keeping the atmosphere fun and relaxed. She was also incredibly flexible. Overall, she was great to work with and worth every penny and then some!

Laura was beyond our expectations. Truly a gifted photographer. She captured our most precious moments, trust her with yours. An A+++ phenomenal photograher!

Laura is absolutely AMAZING! After researching photographers for my sister's wedding earlier in the year, I knew I had to have the same photographer! Laura is awesome at capturing all the special moments of your day with a great mix of posed and fun candid photos. My entire extended family was so excited to see Laura again - they adored her at my sister's wedding, and it was fun getting to hang out with her again. Her timeline is so helpful and kept things running so smoothly throughout the day without feeling rushed. We were able to soak up each moment leading up to the ceremony and she braved the cold to take photos outside for our late December wedding. We've been looking through our photos a lot recently, and Laura did a phenomenal job capturing all the magic from our day! She really captured everything we were hoping for, and I would highly recommend her to anyone! She's so kind, makes the day seem effortless, and provides the highest quality of work!

Laura was wonderful to work with! I highly recommend her to anyone. She shot our engagement and wedding pictures, both of which turned out beautifully. We especially loved our outdoor photos. She is also quick to communicate with, highly professional, and very flexible. She was willing to create a custom "package" to fit our needs. Best of all, she's fun to be around!

She was easy and great to work with. She was very quick and the pictures turned out amazing! Would highly recommend having her take your pictures on your special day!

Laura was so much fun to work with and took amazing photos! We are very happy with how everything turned out and would highly recommend her!

Laura was so great to work with! We booked our date about a year in advance and did our engagement session with Laura as well as our wedding pictures. She was great at staying in touch with us and getting our photos to us in a timely manner. Her presentation is awesome! We were so impressed when receiving our final photos. Our family and friends also loved working with Laura - she’s easy to get along with and we appreciate her flexibility with everything. She also gave us lots of helpful suggestions for wedding photo planning! We highly recommend Laura.

Laura is an outstanding photographer. We were very impressed with our wedding pictures. She has a talent for capturing all the important moments of the day, and the emotions of those moments. She was very easy to work with from the time we got a quote to the time we received our pictures. Working with her is effortless - she is so personable and makes you feel right at home in front of the camera. There's no doubt you'll love her work!

Laura was great to work with start to finish. She was professional and knowledgeable and helped us plan exactly what to do when we were lost! She was very friendly, and a calming presence to have along for our wedding day. And the photos were beautiful too! She did a great job working with difficult subjects (our cat) and good at herding large groups of people too! We would definitely recommend her!

Laura is an amazingly talented photographer. I hired her to photograph my wedding and I would hire her again, and recommend her to everyone I know, without hesitation. Laura’s work is absolutely phenomenal. I think some photographers have “the eye” and Laura is definitely one of them. Laura was able to capture “us” and our personality as well as our guests, candid moments, and all the details of our day. Nothing felt artificial or posed. She worked tirelessly throughout the entire event. I still have friends asking me “Who was your photographer?! I never saw her stop taking photos!” Working with Laura was like working with a friend I have known for years. She was easy to communicate with, extremely thoughtful, adventurous (not many people would jump into an ATV to ride to the top of a ski hill for photos – but Laura didn’t think twice), and creative. I am so glad we had Laura there to capture our wedding day. We will treasure the moments she captured forever.

We decided to choose Laura Schmitt Photography after vetting several for our Monday wedding. Since a Monday wedding date opened up the option for the choice of many wedding photographers, I reviewed many websites, reviews, pricing, and emailed several. Once narrowing it down to Laura and two others, I noticed a difference in her email professionalism to her timely responsiveness compared to the other two photographers. She also sold me on her style - both a blend of photojournalism and traditional wedding photography. I value responsiveness and attention to detail, and appreciated Laura's quick follow-up and engaged nature. Her pricing is very fair to market, and is a good price for the service you get. We are very happy with our photos from Laura. I would choose Laura again for other photography services needed.

Laura Schmitt was great to work with. She was very professional, and came to our venue quite early to take photos of decorations, my dress, flowers, and our wedding rings. My husband and I weren't very comfortable having our pictures taken and she worked with us to make sure we had some beautiful photos. We actually enjoyed having our picture taken! All of our photos turned out beautifully, and Laura was willing to do any edits to photos as requested, but we already loved the pictures as they were. Highly recommend!

Words can’t describe how thankful and appreciative we are of everything Laura did to help us prepare for the wedding as well as making everything stay so calm and go so smoothly on our wedding day. Laura is so fun and easy to work with and we got nothing but compliments from family and friends as well as other vendors that were at our wedding! She did such a phenomenal job on our pictures and we couldn’t have picked a better photographer!

Summary: We can't say enough good things about Laura and the beautiful photos that she took at our wedding! If we stay in the midwest, we will definitely go back to Laura Schmitt Photography for family photos. Communication/Professionalism: We were planning our wedding remotely, and Laura was great about working with us via Skype/email. Laura has a lot of experience photographing weddings, so I would recommend booking her early on in your wedding planning process to get feedback about the logistics of your wedding day. She gave us a great advice about how much time to budget for posed photos (we took couple photos in the UW Madison Arboretum and family photos in front of the Capital), and then she kept us on schedule the day of the wedding -- taking all of the posed photos that we wanted within the designated timeframe. She also made great suggestions on the day of the wedding. For example, we hadn't given any thought to the first look (we try to be go-with-flow people). And Laura came up with a plan for our first look on the day of our wedding, and these photos are some of our favorites. Skill: Laura's background in photojournalism was evident in the candid photos from our wedding day. She hustled ALL day long -- taking a ton of photos often from a variety of different angles -- so that when you look at a series of photos, you actually get a sense of what it felt like to be at our wedding! My husband and I have already gone through the wedding photos several times -- re-living our wedding day. Personality: Laura is a kind and down-to-earth person -- which are qualities that we valued -- especially since we were with Laura from the time that I was getting ready through the ceremony and reception. At the last minute, we asked Laura to stay an extra hour later (you can pay per additional hour) to take photos of us at one of our favorite bars in Madison. Laura was able to stay late, and the photos that she took of us walking down State Street and being at The Plaza are some of our favorites. Laura, if you are reading this, thank you!!!

Laura did an AMAZING job for our engagement pictures, and our wedding day! She was able to meet us in Stoughton, WI for the engagement shoot, and Neenah, WI for our wedding. She was also very accommodating and skilled with our two Great Pyrenees dogs! I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone :)

Laura was fantastic. She is so easy to work with, punctual, professional, and did a beautiful job. I get worried that photographers would make us look 'staged' but Laura captured us in organic moments and took candid shots that turned out beautiful. Looking at the photos helps me relive my day--- and Laura's work was exactly what I wanted for my wedding! Thank you, Laura. Highly recommend!

Laura certainly surpassed our expectations; the photos turned out better than we could have imagined. Laura was a pleasure to work with. She helped better organize the chaos of the big day, helped push through the schedule, and was flexible and fun! We have received countless comments from people who have seen the pictures and say they belong in a magazine! Finally, the cherry top was that she takes her time to put her personal touch on everything. It is obvious photography is a passion of Laura's and her personal touches shows how she cares for her clients. Definitely would recommend her to anyone who asks!

Laura was a delight to work with. My husband and I planned our very small, simple wedding from our home in Germany, and Laura was ever-understanding and patient with our haphazard communication from overseas. She made sure to keep in contact as the date neared without making us feel any pressure. The week before the wedding, she set up a coffee date with us to go through the specifics and get a feel for the location. She came well prepared with a thorough list of questions that were well thought out and tailored to our informal backyard celebration. The day of, Laura arrived promptly and jumped right into her work, going about taking pictures of all the most important moments without being intrusive. She listened to and incorporated our wishes and those of our families, like taking a group picture of all of our wedding guests together! My favorite pictures of the day were those Laura took of just my husband and Ime at the “golden hour” just before sunset. Laura was a great coach and the pictures turned out almost ludicrously gorgeous. Overall working with Laura was fun, stress-free, and resulted in amazing pictures. Her pictures were very professionally done and exactly as we wished, and we had the feeling that she truly cared about helping us have the best wedding experience possible - and the best memories to keep of it. I'd recommend her as a photographer without reservation!

Laura was easily the best decision that we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. She is kind, funny, professional, easy-going, and incredibly talented. She was so easy to work with and made everyone feel comfortable. We worked with her specifically for her photo-journalistic style and the pictures turned out better than we imagined. The pictures tell a story of our wedding day. She captured all the moments and emotions that we never wanted to forget. We are so pleased with the final product and absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to really document the memories. We plan on going back to her for all of our family photo sessions, too! Love her, love the final product!

Choosing Laura for our wedding photographer was the best decision!! She was so amazing and adapted to all of our needs on the day of our wedding. We had planned on having pictures taken outdoors, but on the day of the wedding it was raining so hard that we were thinking we'd have to cancel the outdoor pictures (which I was not happy about because I loved the outdoor location). Laura convinced us that it was still ok to take the pictures outside and I am so happy that we did because they turned out amazing!! She came prepared with umbrellas and she was such a trooper in the down pour! I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!!!

I am very happy that we booked Laura to do our photography. She is extremely organized and helped answer my questions about how a wedding day schedule usually looks. Then, on the day of she calmly helped keep us on track when we weren't noticing how fast the time was flying by. Fantastic! Also, the pictures looked amazing and she gave us a cool gift. The only reason I gave her a 4 star is because I always believe there is a little room for constructive criticism which is this: a little bit more help with posing people that don't know their body angles.

We are so happy we chose Laura for our wedding. She did an absoluetly amazing job capturing everything on our special day! She had so many wonderful ideas for photos and made sure we got every photo we wanted as well. She kept everything moving so smoothly during photos which helped to keep me relaxed on our wedding day! The photos she captured were absolutely beautiful and could not have asked for more out of a photographer. We now have such perfect photos to look back on and remember our wedding day for years to come!!

Laura is AMAZING! My now husband and I used her for our wedding and engagement photos. She was so easy to get ahold of when we needed her, and it was very easy to plan appointments with her when we needed them. She is very good at using the natural light in her photos to get the best picture possible. She is so good at making you feel comfortable and relaxed when she is taking the photos. All the photos are available to us online in a gallery, and she also sent us a flash drive with the pictures as well. It is awesome that we have access to all of our photos. I would recommend Laura to anyone! My husband, family, and I are very happy with our choice to use Laura.

Laura was such a pleasure to have as our photographer! She was very easy to work with and was always very quick to respond to emails. She was so willing to answer all of our questions and offer advice through the planning process and helped us work through a tight and difficult wedding day timeline. We wanted to find the perfect spot on Lake Michigan for photos, and Laura was willing to look through pictures we took to provide feedback on which spots would work best. Truly above and beyond! Laura was super organized on the day of the wedding and kept the photos moving to keep on our tight timeline. We had no doubt she would get all of the shots we wanted. My husband and I are not usually comfortable in front of the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable taking pictures on our wedding day. Our photos turned out amazing and we couldn't be happier! Laura really captured our day perfectly!! We highly recommend Laura!

If you want the very best, go with Laura! Not only does she truly have an artistic gift when it comes to photography, she has the professional skills to back up her art. (I think that makes her especially unique in this day and age, when pretty much anyone can pick up a camera and call themselves a wedding photographer.) Laura was amazing to work with and our wedding photos (all 500+ of them) are absolutely perfect. We couldn't be happier with her work. Also, she's just a pretty cool person! I'm not someone that is comfortable in front of the camera, but Laura really went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We had so much fun working with her! Highly, highly recommend.

We took a chance on Laura after she showed up in a Google search for Central Wisconsin photographers - we didn’t know anyone who had worked with her but we liked her other work and her prices seemed reasonable. We booked an engagement session knowing that, in the back of our minds, if we ended up hating the photos, we could always try to get someone else for our wedding day. We met Laura at our engagement photo location (she travelled a couple of hours to get there) and right away we felt comfortable working with her - she acknowledged the initial awkwardness but easily made us feel comfortable. She directed without being overbearing and was also open to our ideas. A few weeks later, we received our engagement photos… and we loved them. We felt they captured us as a couple and we felt encouraged about having her as our wedding day photographer. Fast forward a few months and Laura notified us that she was pregnant with her due date about a month after our wedding date. Upon informing us of her exciting news, she had already lined up an alternative photographer to come photograph our wedding in the event she could not be there. She also indicated that, if she was able to be there, the second photographer would come anyway! She went above and beyond in making these arrangements, and we were grateful. Wedding day came and Laura was on point. She was so friendly with our family and friends and was almost like an assistant! Her friend and alternative photographer, Andi, was just as kind, fun, and helpful. During the ceremony, I hardly noticed either photographer. Prior to leaving for the night, Laura came up to me and my family on a couple of occasions to confirm that we had all the pictures we wanted captured. My husband and I awaited anxiously for our photos, because we knew they’d be good. But when we got our photos we were shocked - they were even better than we could have imagined. Laura captured all your traditional shots but she also caught some candid moments that we only fondly recalled after looking at the pictures - and isn’t that the point of photographs? To bring back memories? We were so pleased with our pictures and are getting so many compliments on them. We couldn’t recommend Laura more highly! Thank you, Laura, for being a part of our best day ever!

Laura was a fantastic photographer for both our engagement pictures and our wedding day. She was professional, laid-back but efficient, and quickly caught on to our personality as a couple. Her photography style matched well with what we were looking for and her approach helped us feel at ease. We were able to relax on our wedding day, knowing Laura was there to capture every moment and we are so pleased with our photos, receiving many compliments on them from our family and friends. We highly recommend Laura for photography!

Laura captured our wedding day so perfectly! She is so talented at what she does! Everyone that has seen our wedding photos are in love with her work.

Laura did an amazing job as our wedding photographer! She was super easy to work with; always very responsive during the planning period leading up to the wedding and very organized for the wedding day. All the pictures are incredibly beautiful and we're so happy that we have them to help us remember our wedding day forever. I highly recommend Laura!

Laura was a pleasure to work with!!! Would highly recommend her to friends and family :) She did a great job with our engagement and wedding photos. I LOVE them! So grateful to have such beautifully captured memories. We've received lots of compliments on the photos from others too! She was always quick to respond to any questions. She was VERY organized on the wedding day which was a huge help. Kudos to her! We were running a little behind, but she kept all of my family and wedding party moving so we could get all the photos we wanted while still starting the ceremony on time. Thanks, Laura!

Laura was absolutely wonderful. She helped with the entire process if you had any questions or needed any help even before the big day! On your big day she is like another personal attendant, she is there and ready to help with anything you might need. The pictures turned out amazing and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to take the pictures, she does awesome works, I would recommend her if you need a photographer for anything!!

I originally came across Laura Schmitt Photography a few years ago for my now brother and sister in-law's wedding. Three years ago I was so impressed with her work, so a year ago when my now husband proposed to me I knew I had to look into Laura. When I initially met with Laura to go over the details, she was very open to hearing what our interests are as a couple and learning the things that we thought were most important for our wedding. Laura had many ideas and suggestions and I found it very helpful because she is so experienced where as I've never planned a wedding before. :) As the wedding grew closer, Laura and I worked to make an agenda that would outline our day so we knew where to have the groomsmen and the bridesmaids when the wedding day arrived. It took a huge weight off my shoulders in the days leading up to the wedding knowing where and when things would be happening on the wedding day because of Laura's outline helping shape my itinerary. On the wedding day, Laura was prompt and jumped right into photographing the dresses, shoes and bouquets. She was calm, collected, and very easily went with the flow when our morning wasn't quite going as expected. After the ceremony, with the time Laura built in we were able to catch up on the poses we missed before the ceremony and we actually had all the bridal party pictures finished before anticipated, making time for more fun! Throughout the dinner and reception Laura snapped many valuable pictures and we even were able to get a little couple shoot right at sunset with spectacular lighting. The next day after the wedding Laura shared a few shots from the wedding and I was instantly excited to see the rest. A few weeks later we received the proofs and I couldn't have been happier. There were so many priceless shots of our family and friends and I can't imagine having had anyone else shoot our wedding. I would highly recommend Laura to family and friends! She is a fantastic photographer, very easy going, easy to reach either by phone or email, and a pleasant person to work with. She made our wedding day fun, light, and enjoyable. Everyone in the bridal party got along great with Laura; I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Laura's photos are amazing! My husband and I have been getting endless complements from friends and family about, not only the pictures themselves, but also just the fact that Laura was so organized and helpful on the big day. On top of that, she was fun and easy to get along with, which makes a huge difference when you're doing odd poses and kissing in front of a camera haha. She really has an artistic eye and knows exactly what will turn out beautifully. Laura goes above and beyond for her clients - she gave us printed copes of all the pictures, plus a USB...and it was all sent in the most beautiful wooden box with our name and wedding date on it. And something totally unexpected, but something that really impressed me - she sent us a starbucks gift card a month before the wedding date and a sweet note that told us to enjoy the last month of being engaged. She's just the best. I totally recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer. We'll be looking her up again some day for anniversary pictures and/or baby :)

Laura did an absolutely wonderful job! She was helpful with ideas and suggestions before the wedding and on the day of. She was professional but fun and took care of organizing family and friends for photos during the wedding. We received our pictures promptly after the wedding as well as follow up emails from her regarding our satisfaction with the prints. Would definitely recommend her for ANY event :)

Laura was so easy to work with! She made sure that everything that we wanted was done on the day and has such an easy going personality. She captured a lot of candid photos which I love, because I got to see a lot of the day that I wasn't able to the day of. We recommend her to everyone! You really get your moneys worth!!

I had a great experience with Laura Schmidt Hiller as our wedding photographer!! She captured every little moment that I wanted! Decorations, in the moment photos...every part of our wedding was captured in our photos! She was so easy going and willing to work with whatever I wanted for that day. She was there from getting ready, all the way through the dance. She was fast and efficient getting all of our group pictures done because it was a little chilly outside that day! And they all turned out beautiful! I could contact her at anytime with any questions that I had. I highly recommend Laura for your wedding!

Laura was simply amazing. Such a calm, sweet, and caring person. She captured all of the perfect moments from our day!!! We love the candids which captured our love perfectly and ALL of the pictures from the whole day. We cannot be happier and are so lucky to have such amazing pictures from an outstanding photographer. Would recommend her to anyone! Our friends and family complimented throughout the day how great she was!!! Thank you Laura for everything! Alicia and Andy

Laura did a wonderful job as our wedding photographer. She was very professional, organized, and worked with us to get the exact shots we wanted. We received our photos in a timely manner and they were stunning! Also, the personalized wooden gift box with photos was a nice touch. She had also done our engagement photos a couple years prior, which were excellent, so we knew were getting a great product when we hired her for our wedding. We would 100% recommend her! Thank you so much Laura for doing such a great job! Nathan and Kimberly

I would definitely recommend Laura to my friends and family. She was great to work with for everyone, and everything was done in a timely manner. She nicely kept everyone in line to get the photos done so we could stay on time throughout the day. The photos turned out perfect. You get what you pay for, and it was worth every penny. Your photos are the biggest piece of memories you have from your big day! I could not be happier with my choice, in choosing Laura to photograph our wedding!

I recently got married in September and would highly recommend Laura for your wedding day!! She was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding and day of. She was so calm and easy going but was still able to manage our large wedding party and capture amazing pictures. She had her own creative ideas and was also very open to incorporating ones we thought of beforehand and day-of. We are so pleased with our wedding photos! She did a wonderful job and was also reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend her!

We are so happy with how all of our pictures turned out. Laura is fantastic!! She really listened to everything we want in our pictures and she delivered above and beyond that. We are extremely please and will be for sure using her again for all of our family pictures. Thank you so much Laura!!

The pictures from your wedding day are one of the most important things you will carry with you through your marriage to remember and reminisce about this incredibly magical day. THANK GOODNESS for Laura and Cassy! They took the most amazing, beautiful and fun photographs that completely captured every emotion of that amazing day! Laura was so sweet, relaxed and efficient - it made for such a relaxing experience as the bride. Her organization and poise in the weeks leading up to the wedding, the whole day of and through all of those family shots... oh my... it was second to none! We could not be happier to have found Laura, and to have chose this follow Iowan to capture our wedding day in Door County. Once the day was over, Laura was so kind to get me 20 photos to use for thank you cards (I had forgotten to ask before) in just a few days time. And then, when the 6th week was over and Laura emailed to say the pictures were going to be ready... Oh. My. Goodness. I look at them everyday. The pictures are so lovely and candid that I can feel the same emotions I had that day! When I thought it couldn't get any better, Laura sent a package with the USB drive. I began to open a carefully wrapped box... A wooden box, carved with our names and wedding day. When I slid it open, I found a beautiful bundle of pictures tied with a ribbon and a wooden, carved USB drive with all of our memories on it... WOW! Thank you so much, Laura! You have truly exceeded every expectation I had! You are an amazing person and incredible photographer. I can't wait to work with you again!!

Laura was great! She delivered exactly what we were looking for. She was extremely professional and very easy to work with. I had very high expectations for our photos considering the investment we made, and I can say it was worth every penny.

My husband and I loved working with Laura. She was professional and responded quickly to any calls or emails. Our engagement photos and wedding photos captured the moment perfectly. She listened to everything we wanted when it came to poses and family photos. Laura has a lot of special touches that made her even more amazing. For example, we received our USB in an engraved box with a set of prints. She really goes above and beyond to make your wedding a special experience. I completely recommend Laura to anybody looking for a photographer for a wedding or any other event.

Talented, organized, dedicated, kind, wedding-loving, and outdoorsy photographer. I lived in California, my fiance lived in Canada, the wedding was at his grandparent's river front property in Wisconsin, and we gave ourselves two months to plan a wedding. While this wasn't the normal wedding planning, we were so very lucky to find Laura and her agree to shoot our wedding. She understood our wedding vision, felt like a friend, and helped plan over phone, Skype, and email. She has great wedding photo organization checklist, which was helpful to make sure all of the variety of group mixture were captured (there is a lot of family combinations!). The day of I finally got to meet Laura and she was even more wonderful in person. She was timely, organized, and ready to run and maybe even get wet with her Chaco sandals. Even with planning, a wedding is still hectic and a bit of fly by the seat of your pants/train of your dress. Laura was great the day of the wedding - she captured many angles of the wedding, was both patient and wrangled the masses for the photos, and most importantly made me and the rest of the guests feel comfortable. She was also willing to take photos of the more extreme elements - my husband and I decided to kayak down the river before the reception. At first Laura was concerned for the state of my dress after the kayak run, but then she captured the event perfectly (and probably wished she was in the water too). Post-wedding, Laura has been great to communicate with. Her photos came out so beautiful and filled with the mixture of landscape, color, artistry, and portrait. It was the perfect day with family in a beautiful location - so thankful we have the photos to cherish the day forever. I am so grateful for Laura and her perfect eye for our wedding!

Laura is a wonderful photographer to work with!! I loved the pictures on her website, found her quick and friendly responses to be very welcoming, and when I met her in person, I knew I wanted to work with her. She is easy going, friendly, professional, and has amazing talent. We met several times to discuss a schedule and the pictures that I had in mind. She gave me suggestions and helped me with anything that I asked. Laura was very quick to respond to my emails (always just as friendly as the first time) and was always on time. About two weeks before our wedding, Laura sent us a note and Starbucks gift card in the mail. This showed how sweet and thoughtful Laura is. When our big day arrived, Laura showed up early and started taking pictures right away. It was very nice to have her there starting when we were getting ready and throughout the day. The pictures that she took of my wedding were more than I ever expected. She captured every important moment and took beautiful candid shots that I didn't even think of at both the ceremony and reception. She also took many, many gorgeous group and couple pictures in between the ceremony and reception. She created beautiful pictures and had a
