A (non-exhaustive) list of things I love about weddings —

Dogs in bows and bowties. Grandparents smooching.

Big, ugly, lip-quivering tears. Analog photo booths.
Sarcasm. Equality. Boujee babes who aren’t snobs.
Being nice to your mom. Rooftops.

Door County sunsets. Telluride alpenglow.

and a little humble Midwest luxury.

Hey, I’m Cassie!

I was born + raised in Wisconsin + identify as a proud Midwesterner. I lived in Colorado for the last 15 years before moving back to Wisconsin to start a family with my wife, Erin.

I am a helicopter dog mom to my three rescue dogs, Tilly May, Stella + Scout. I am a doting mother to our son, Fozi.

I started my business in 2012 + since then have photographed hundreds of weddings filled with the big and little moments that make a day special.  

I am absolutely certain that telling stories, witnessing real moments and loving people through photography is exactly what I was created to do and I feel blessed that it has been my job for over a decade.

creativity has always been in my roots

I grew up seeing my grandfather as a hobbyist photographer, capturing photos of my grandmother’s flowers.

My mom was a creative -- painter, skilled at sewing, my brother is a drawer and custom sneaker designer.

I have lived creatively since I was young. I inherited my first camera from my grandfather, remember making music videos with my friends in the driveway and photographed my first wedding when I was a junior in college.

You are original, I want you to have your own images that are filled with your authentic love, joy + life! If we work off a list, it often leaves people feeling like they need to be something they are not. I want you to be you. Authentic + wonderful! We will create art that other people want to pin on pinterest!
