    Money well spent. I'd do it again just to hang out with them, then anticipate the awesome pictures they took.

    They were the perfect choice for our wedding. You won't regret any shoot with them. From the start of our planning, when we first spoke with them, their communication was prompt, polite, and showed their depth of experience and love for taking the best shot possible to ensure we look good and the moment was stress-less. And we laughed a lot. I wouldn't have wasted my hard-earned money if we didn't feel confident. They exceeded our expectations. The fact that they showed up with smiles and the correct gear meant the world to us on our special day (as a photographer/videographer myself). It's clear they treat their employees well too, people want to work at MWLS. More reason to support their family business. The positive energy translated into amazing photos that we will cherish forever. Money well spent on Midwest LifeShots Photography. Plus, Jenn is awesome.

    Best in the Midwest

    The best!
    So glad I booked Midwest Lifeshots Photography for my wedding day. They were awesome to work with, sent fun mail, and eased every worry I had. I dio 1/2 my wedding planning in another state and they assured me everything would be fine! We got so many compliments from guests at our wedding on how great their team was and how amazing the photographers were. They got along great with our guests and captured every important moment of our day. Could not be happier with how our pictures turned out.

    Exactly what we wanted/needed!

    Midwest was everything we could have wanted! Listened, were very flexible, knew our personalities and made us feel so comfortable! Our pictures from engagement to our wedding were so perfect!

    Thank You!

    We used MLSP for our wedding, and I could not have asked for a better experience! Scott was so friendly and charismatic and we knew right away that they were the right fit for us. He helped settle all of the nerves we had about being professionally photographed. Renae and Olivia bared the cold with us and photographed our engagement shoot and wedding in freezing conditions. Olivia even lent me her winter boots so we could trudge through the snow to capture the most stunning winter wedding photos!
    We were blown away by the entire MLSP team from start to finish. They were very helpful in the planning process and gave us tools to create a timeline that was perfect for us. On wedding day, Renae and Olivia were very friendly and made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. We were fortunate enough to get our full gallery of photos back from editing only 2 weeks after our wedding, and I could not be more happy with the results! They truly captured our day beautifully and I will cherish the photos forever!

    Could not recommend a better company for photography!

    Highly recommend this company for wedding photography and really any photography needed! Absolutely loved working with the team from start to finish - their personal touches throughout the process really make them a standout company! We were grateful that our package included an engagement session (because we wouldn't have done one otherwise) - it really helped us to be more comfortable with photos on our big day. We also loved that we had two photographers on our wedding day for an unlimited timeframe - much less stressful! And, they captured our day from start to finish so perfectly and truly brought the people and moments captured to life - we are so grateful!

    Perfect Team

    Throughout every moment of wedding planning this team was there to give advice and help give great ideas and suggestions. Always so responsive which is so reassuring. And the day of, it almost felt like having guides to help us get through the day. They were so prepared and professional and made it so easy to just relax and enjoy the day while they captured every wonderful and important moment and detail. Especially things I never thought of but am so glad I have those memories forever in our photos.

    Our photos are absolutely STUNNING! Scott and Jen went above and beyond to make our wedding day a huge success and were able to capture it perfectly! They are flexible, organized, easy to work with, and extremely enjoyable to be around! They had us laughing, crying, and smiling from ear to ear all night.

    Amazing photographers- amazing company

    The Midwest team was amazing to work with. We have nothing but good things to say about them! Our photographers were super fun, down to earth, and professional.
    Our photographs captured all of the details from the entire day which is what we hoped for. My favorite thing working behind the scenes was their crazy fast responsiveness to all of our emails and calls.

    Amazing Wedding Photographers

    Midwest LifeShots was amazing from the start. We are so happy about our photos and we continue to get so many compliments on them. One thing that sets them apart is that they get to know you really well leading up to your big day, so it is not nearly as nerve wracking.

    Do yourself a favor and hire them for some wonderful wedding photos!

    Scott and the entire Midwest LifeShots team were amazing to work with. My husband and I have nothing but great things to say about them! From the amazing, down to earth, professional team they are, to their flexibility through the Covid madness, the quality of their photos, and their responsiveness to all of the crazy questions you come up with as bride and groom, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer. They made our wedding days so special, and we can't wait for them to capture so many more life events in our future. Thank you Midwest LifeShots Team for being the amazing people you are!

    Simply the best!

    Amazing. Brilliant. Easy going. Flexible. Talented. Thorough. All words that best describe Scott, Jen and our experience with Midwest LifeShots. Jen and Scott are THE ULTIMATE #dreamteam!

    Their energy and passion is absolutely contagious! Which made for some of the BEST candid photos with ear-to-ear smiles!

    It’s only right that I also RAVE about how collaborative Scott and Jen were with our videographer and our wedding planner – making for an even more successful special day!

    We look forward to working with Scott, Jen and the incredibly talented Midwest LifeShots team to capture more of life’s special moments!

    P.S – would DEFINETLY recommend hiring Midwest LifeShots for engagement pictures, too. It was so wonderful getting to know Jen in person ahead of our big day!

    Natural, real-color photos



    To us, the most essential wedding vendor is the photographer. Someone who captures the entire day with clear, natural, beautiful, real-color photos to help us relive our special day. Midwest LifeShots met all of our expectations and then some! Beyond the beautiful 800+ pictures we received from our wedding, working with Scott and Jen was a pleasure! They are very easy to talk too, feel comfortable around, and are responsive whenever needed. Our family also loved them, Scott and Jen were like family friends! We had the best experience with Midwest LifeShots, they are worth it!!

    Incredible Photographers

    Scott and Jen are no less than magicians. We got married on a somewhat chilly October day and they were able to get such amazing pictures in such a short amount of time so that we didn't have to stand outside in the cold :) They were professional, fun, made us laugh and feel SO comfortable and just so easy and great to work with. I knew they were going to be great by their social media accounts - I love that they highlight REAL couples who don't inherently just look like models. I think it's easy for any photographer to get good pictures of naturally gorgeous people. But you can tell when a photographer is talented when they get such amazing, beautiful pictures of everyday couples. This was not only confirmed when I saw our sneak peak photos, but they blew our expectations out of the water. Seriously such talented photographers - I would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone in the area!!

    Love love love love love love love love

    I do not even know where to begin for Midwest Life shots! I love them so much and I wish we lived closer because I would totally have them photograph our family forever! We had them do our engagement shoot and wedding shoot and I could not be happier with our photographers and results. They made us feel so relaxed and we had so much fun posing! Meredith is so wonderful to work with and her energy is infectious! They wore masks the whole time and we felt very safe with them. Their customer service is off the wall amazing! Scott, Jen, Meredith, and the whole team are just the kindest, most wonderful humans and I just am so happy we went with them for our wedding. Everything was great! Highly highly highly recommend!
    I have attached just our sneak peeks! I am so in love with them

    Best decision we made for our wedding day :)

    We absolutely LOVED working with Midwest LifeShots! From the first time we met with Meredith, we knew that our wedding day would go smoothly because of this team. :) Our wedding gallery was beautiful, even more amazing than we ever dreamed! Plus, we got the gallery back in 3 DAYS! 3 DAYS! It was awesome! We looked through all of our photos and relived our day while sitting on the beach during our honeymoon. The icing on the cake, they sent us soup since I was sick right before the wedding. :) Much love for this team!!

    Dream Come True Wedding Day thanks to MLSP!

    The absolute BEST wedding photographers hands down. The weather tried to put a damper on our day but Scott and Jen did not let that stop them and showed us just how much fun we could still have even in the cold and rain! They are an absolute joy to work with and made us feel special throughout the entire process leading up to the wedding. Working with them is not a one day thing, you get so much more than that! I cannot wait to work with them again in the future! We are definitely lifers! :)

    We absolutely recommend this team for photography! We never once worried about the photography aspect of our day because we knew they would do whatever was needed to get us great photos. We are in love with every single picture taken. On top of the wonderful skills, their personalities are amazing! The customer service we received by them was above all. We never felt like “just another client”, we were all that mattered that day. We are forever grateful for Midwest LifeShots!

    100% highly recommend

    After my first phone call with Scott, I knew I struck gold. His personality instantly made me feel like he was my newfound friend. He constantly put me at ease answering all of my questions at all times of the day/night up until the day before our wedding.

    Meredith, Renae and Sam were the team members assigned to photograph our wedding and cannot say enough good things about them all.
    We first spoke with Meredith who developed our timeline for the big day so we could ensure everyone was in the right place at the right time. She also made sure we'd have time at the cocktail hr to thank our guests which was important to us and also make sure we got our pictures taken at the golden hour which were by far my most favorite pictures of all.
    They all made taking photographs incredibly easy, had so many great ideas for the location and readily corrected our positions/out of place hair or whatever it may be to ensure we looked our best in the pictures.

    Meredith even went of her way to sew on the top front button of my husband's suit that had fallen off after the ceremony to make sure it wouldn't affect anything.

    But what really meant the most to us was that the team had printed and framed a photograph to place on the gift table. The day itself flies by so quickly and that picture helped us focus and reflect back on that moment that happened just an hour or so before and fall in love with the day all over again.

    I've been recommending them to everyone and can't wait for the day to work with them again!

    Perfect Wedding Photographers!

    Midwest Lifeshots Photography captured all of the small details, emotions, and special moments from our wedding day and we could not be happier. This team is truly talented and passionate about what they do....and they are a lot of fun to be around. During the planning process, they communicated so well and always checked-in during the planning process to make sure everything was going well and would ask questions about our special day. On the day of the weeding, they were so much fun to be around with making everyone laugh and having a great time. They did such a great job with finding the perfect areas for photos and how to place everyone in the group photos (we had uneven sides and a bridesman). When we received our photos, we were so in love with them. Midwest Lifeshots went above and beyond our expectations and we will cherish these photos for a lifetime.

    Top-Notch Experience!

    Working with Scott and Jen was a D.R.E.A.M. As an Event Planner, I work closely with the photographers-especially at weddings. The success of the day is dependent upon staying on schedule and of all pieces of the puzzle working together smoothly. Scott and Jen at Midwest Lifeshots were so easy to work with. Their professionalism, creative eye, and the FUN they brought to the day was incredible! I highly recommend them...you will thank yourself many times over!

    Highest recommendations!

    • My husband and I could not be more ecstatic with all of the pictures (engagement and wedding) Scott and Jen took. They made taking pictures easy and painless, even including formal pictures. They were extremely organized and kept great communication, well before the big day and the day of. My husband and I cannot express enough gratitude and appreciation for what they have done for us. We will be working with Scott and Jen in the future for all of our photography needs! They are AMAZING!

    So Much More Than a Photography Team

    I say that Midwest LifeShots Photography is more than a photography team because they were our friends and biggest fans throughout our 18 month engagement; they were our wedding planners, helping us plan and schedule out our entire wedding day; they made sure we still "dated" during our engagement by sending us coffee gift cards, movie tickets, and so much more (just because!!!!). This team captured the love and happiness that was shown on our wedding day in a way that exceeded all of our expectations. We cannot wait for MLSP to capture all of our big days to come :)

    Midwest LifeShots is simply the way to go. Scott, Jen, and the Team do everything to help make your images perfect and your day flow smoothly. We have now worked with MLSP on three different shoots and each time they have helped each of us feel comfortable and we had a ton of fun along the way. Thanks for everything! Can't wait to work with you in the future.

    We worked with MLSP for our engagement shoot as well as our wedding day and we couldn't have been happier! Scott and Jen were so much fun to work with and they definitely helped make our wedding day as easy going as possible. We couldn't have asked for a better team to spend the entire day with. Very enthusiastic, professional, and beautiful work!

    We could not begin to say how happy we were with the service we received from Scott and Jen at Midwest LifeShots. Our pictures are amazing! The most notable thing I would say about the whole picture taking process is how much FUN they made it for us. Seriously, if you are looking for a photographer strongly consider Midwest Lifeshots, we will be using them for all of our future needs!

    I am not one for leaving reviews, but Midwest LifeShots Photography is totally deserving of one because they. are. AWESOME! No really, they were hands down our favorite vendor from our wedding day. From the get-go they were so easy to work with and our pictures turned out phenomenal. They captured every moment perfectly and made the entire process fun. They were worth every penny spent!

    MLSP was hands down our best investment for our wedding. We had a recommendation from a co-worker who told me "MLSP made our wedding." We thought we had found our photographer until I looked at their site and I was hooked by the combination of photography and video clips. Because I didn't think I would ever sit down and watch our entire wedding, it did not make sense to us to pay for a videographer, but I did want clips which made them ideal. (*Note- if you want the audio, then make sure you get a videographer). My husband and I immediately clicked with Scott in our initial with his love of his art and geeking out on it! Since our theme was geek chic, why wouldn't we have someone who geeked out on his own profession like we do =) Besides the personalities matching, we felt the confidence and saw the quality of the photos. Throughout the day, Scott and Jen made everyone feel comfortable and laugh and the end product was breathtaking. We had such a difficult time picking out which ones we want to use for various different things. We highly recommend this company and suggest booking both Scott and Jen- worth every cent. Also, afterwards, I was debating ordering photos through them or just going through Walgreens. I printed a few from Walgreens and a few from them- the quality is much better ordering through MLSP, however, I think printing on matte is better color wise than the glossy if you want to go the cheaper route.

    We were very picky with our vendors for our wedding, however, it only took a few minutes with Scott at Midwest Lifeshots Photography to know without a doubt they were the best for us. They sat us down and not only promised us great photos, they delivered us confidence in knowing that the most special day of our lives was creatively and completely documented. Hands down best decision we made for a vendor. Even compared to many of our friend's weddings photographers, MLSP still has that extra spark.

    Midwest Lifeshots made the months leading up to our wedding and the big day itself absolutely perfect! From the little encouraging gifts they sent us to using their experience to help finalize our schedule, planning was so much easier than if we'd been trying to do it alone.

    Scott and his team are as fun, easy going, and professional as you can get. Hands down our favorite vendor to work with for our wedding. They really take the time to get to know you as a couple. It helps you be so much more relaxed, and it definitely translates into absolutely gorgeous pictures!

    Love, love looooooooved working with them! Can't wait to document more of life's milestones with these fantastic people!

    Midwest Lifeshots was wonderful to work with! We had them take our engagement and wedding photos and we were so thrilled with the results. Scott and Jen really took the time to get to know us and what we wanted in our photos. They made us feel comfortable during the whole process and especially during our wedding day. They took a lot of stress out of the wedding day because they were so organized and focused. My wedding pictures were one of the most important things to me when I was planning my wedding; and they exceeded my expectations. I would recommend them to anyone!

    We had to find a wedding photographer while living 3,000 miles away! We had recommendations for Midwest LifeShots and after the first phone call with Scott we knew this was the team to go with. The team made us feel like we knew them forever. They were very organized and made the planning from so far away soooo easy! We met for the first time on wedding morning and it was as if we were long lost friends. We were completely at ease all day and they had our full trust. They did not let us down. They went above and beyond. Our pictures are STUNNING! We have receive nothing but compliments from our friends and family about the gorgeous pictures. We cannot recommend them enough. Our jaws hit the floor when we received our final products. Absolutely perfect! Thank you for being so amazing and so talented!!

    I love everything about Midwest Lifeshots. I had seen photography they did for a cousin of mine. I like how they put together a slideshow for your photography and incorporate candid video. They take time to get to know you and to find out what your dreams are in the photography you want done. My husband was not as excited as me for our engagement session, but Scott made it a really fun and special moment. Jenn did a really good job with the wedding. We really appreciate all that MWLS has done, and how they've gone out of their way to make this milestone even more special. We have memories we can cherish forever now.

    We could not have been more pleased with our experience with Midwest Lifeshots. We had hired Scott, Jen, and the team to take our engagement photos, as well as to photograph our wedding. The team was supremely organized, and coordinated all of our needs in an extremely efficient manner, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy our special day. They were not only the epitome of professionalism, but we also just down right fun. We honestly looked forward to each and every meeting. This is before even mentioning the final product. The photos were all we could have asked for and more. We have undoubtedly found our photographers for life.

    MWLS is simply great at what they do! We had our engagement & wedding photos taken by Scott. He is fantastic with a great sense of humor and a an eye for a fantastic picture :) We wouldn't change a single second about our wedding day with Scott and his team. If you're looking for a tea with a great direction, this is exactly who you need to work with! I completely recommend taking the time to sit and meet with Scott, Jen and their team! A++++++++++ team for sure!! :)

    We can't wait to work with Midwest LifeShots again after having them do our engagement and wedding photography! Scott one of the owners shot our wedding and he was AMAZING! He could always make me and my husband laugh so our smiles never seemed forced. By the end of the day he seemed like more of a friend than just a photographer. The team that shot our wedding definitely brought their A-Game. We had a small snag(one of the bridesmaids was hours late!) in the wedding timeline the morning of the wedding and Scott jumped right in and rearranged the entire photo timeline to make sure I still got all the photos that were important to me. They were even able to make me laugh when I was beyond stressed out over the late bridesmaid. Everything they do right from the initial meeting down to the final viewing is perfection! They are worth the cost as they are exceptional in what they do.

    Midwest Life shots was the best vendor we hired for our wedding hands down! They were so professional every step of the way even after our wedding was done. They made sure our day was exactly as we had imagined, and truly provided pictures that our friends and family cannot stop talking about. We plan to use Midwest life shots for all of our photography needs in the future, and would recommend them to anyone looking for the best photographers around for their special event!

    MLSP was the first photography company that I looked into when planning our wedding. Scott and I arranged to chat via Skype since I was living several states away at the time. He completely stole the show! I didn't even want to talk with any other photographers, but I did and ultimately chose MLSP. Scott, Jen, and the entire MLSP were outstanding! We had a fantastic engagement shoot that made me even more excited for the wedding. Our photos are perfect and are everything I ever imagined they would be!

    They made us feel like we were their only clients. They made us feel so special. They made sure we had the best experience on our special day and they definitely captured it. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

    The team at Midwest LifeShots was absolutely amazing. We could not have asked for more. They were professional and easy to work with from the very first meeting, and were always available to answer questions....even months after our wedding! I would not hesitate to recommend Midwest Lifeshots for any photography needs!

We would highly recommend Midwest LifeShots for engagement and wedding pictures.

    We had Midwest LifeShots photograph our wedding day and the results were unbelievable. We had three people work with us the whole day and they truly worked like a well tuned machine capturing several amazing shots. We're really glad we chose Midwest LifeShots to photograph our big day and can't wait to work with them in the future!

    From the second we sat down in our initial consultation with Midwest Lifeshots, we knew they were the photographers for us. They dove right in with us, no questions asked, and exceeded our expectations in capturing every moment of our wedding. They made the day fun, and they were still very professional and organized. The photos we got back are nothing short of amazing, and I'm so happy I get to look at them for the rest of my lfe! THANK YOU MLSP :)

    After researching dozens of photographers, my husband and I decided to go with Midwest LifeShots. The professionalism we received from Scott, Jenn and Kady was matched only by their enthusiasm.
    It was wonderful to work with photographers who seemed genuinely as excited about our wedding photos as we were. As an added bonus our photos are beautiful! My husband and I are a bit non-traditional, and our photographers did everything they could to capture our personalities with the photos.

    Midwest LifeShots = Amazing! Scott, Jen, and the team went above and beyond anything we could've imagined for our wedding day. We could not be happier with how our photos turned out! We had an absolute blast with the team on our big day as well and would repeat the experience if we could! Scott, Jen, and the team made us feel completely comfortable and at ease with their creativity, organization, and attention to detail. Just awesome.

    Absolutely AMAZING photographers! Very creative and easy to work with! Midwest Life Shots really cares about YOUR day and making it everything you ever dreamed!
    Throughout the engagement period they communicated frequently and put our worries to rest!
    We couldn't have been happier with our final product! The video they put together gives us chills each time we watch it! I feel like we are looking at a bridal magazine each time we go through our photos!

    My husband and I were so impressed with Midwest LifeShots Photography! We first met with them to do our engagement pictures and felt so at ease. For our wedding, they coordinated every detail to ensure everything went smoothly. They were professional and easy and fun to work with. The pictures speak for themselves; they are amazing. We will be proud to display these pictures from our special day in our home for many, many years. We have also gotten so many compliments on our pictures from so many of our family and friends. I would highly recommend anyone to Midwest LifeShots for any event!

    MLSP did an amazing job with our wedding and engagement photos. We are so happy with everything they provided for us. They have great knowledge when it comes to photography and it shows in the pictures they take. They are an absolute pleasure to work with and make taking photos fun. If anyone ever has any doubt on a photographer to choose, MLSP is the best choice. Of all the photos they took of our wedding and engagement, there was not one we did not like. Absolutely the best choice for photography.

    After getting engaged, my fiancé and I discussed the most important aspects of our wedding, besides the ceremony. We both agreed photography was a HUGE feature and like every couple, we wanted the best. After wading through several cheesy websites, we found Midwest LifeShots to be right up our alley. Scott, Jen and the entire team at Midwest LifeShots are fantastic.

    Besides their photos, we give an A+ for customer service. We were shown our options, walked through the process and did not feel pressured in the slightest. From day one we trusted them completely to take care of us and our important day. They certainly delivered!

    Our wedding day went on without a hitch. We got all of the shots we had requested, plus a lot of very creative photos! They captured our personalities without ridiculous staging and were able to produce amazing shots while remaining low-key. They did a wonderful job keeping everything on schedule and made sure we were happy every step of the way. After all was said and done, we were grateful we chose Midwest LifeShots as they were professional, kept us comfortable and provided a service beyond compare.

    My husband and I GLADLY recommend Midwest LifeShots to any future bride and groom; the photos and customer service are worth every penny

    We were so thrilled with our experience at MWLSP. I honestly have no hesitations in recommending them from any aspect (and I am a tough critic). A few reasons they rock:

    (1) Their photos are amazing. Obviously a must-have in a photographer.

    (2) They gave PHENOMENAL customer service! They followed through on all their commitments, which after you get married, you will realize this can be rare. Not only did they follow through, but they taught us what to expect, helped us with the photography schedule, kept us on task with formals (which I had several of my friends who have recently gotten married say our photographers handled it better than theirs). From this photographer, you can expect that they will ask questions of you. You aren't going to have to think of everything all on your own. They will be your partner in this process. They will take the time to understand your day and your vision for your wedding.

    (3) They are so much fun! it's always a bonus if you truly enjoy working with them.

    Seriously, you should at least consider scheduling a meeting with these photographers!

    I have read the many other positive reviews and here is what I have to say: they are all true. My husband and I had a great time working with Scott and Sara. I was not much of a wedding planner... and Scott and Jen made everything easy for us. They were very organized and gave us lots of wedding day tips. On the day of our wedding, I felt that they not only ensured that the photography flowed smoothly, but actually helped to keep the whole wedding ceremony on track. If I had it to do over again, I certainly would. I would be happy to say more about our experience to anyone who is interested.

    My new husband and I were absolutely thrilled with our experience with Midwest LifeShots. Throughout the months and weeks leading up to our wedding, Scott was helpful, friendly, professional, and flexible. He was more than happy to answer all of our questions, responded promptly to emails, and kept us well-informed. On our wedding day itself, we could not have asked for more cheerful, enthusiastic, or kind photographers than Scott and Sara. They put us and our families at ease, blending into the wedding environment to capture wonderful candids and helping even a camera-shy bride feel confident and beautiful. After the wedding, MLSP’s excellent service continued-- our photographs were beautiful, plentiful, and available to us remarkably quickly. We highly recommend MLSP!

    We LOVED working with Midwest LifeShots!! Originally, I didn't want to do much in terms of wedding photos, but after I saw their website, I knew they would do the best job capturing our personalities and making our pictures unique. They took so many great photos of us, we're having difficulty deciding which pictures to get in a larger print. Scott and Jen were very personable and incredibly flexible and easy to work with, which was really helpful since I was living out of state during the first half of wedding planning. We absolutely recommend them to future brides and grooms!

    I knew from the first meeting with Scott that PHOTOGRAPHY is the one thing I would NOT have to worry about at all, and that's why we decided to go with them. If there's ever been a shining example of a pair of people that LOVE their jobs, it's Scott and Kat. They both jumped into the wedding on time, prepared, and enthusiastic. It's so great to see their reactions whenever they catch an epic shot, and they show off their cameras to each other like trading cards, "Check THIS one out!"

    Scott has a process that he follows with every bride, and his professionalism shows. They are aware of many of the possible hangups that could happen throughout the day, and they are prepared to deal with them. They have phone numbers, a schedule loaded on their phones, and an emergency kit (just in case). They aren't "just" photographers, they're pretty much an extension of your personal attendant.

    In the mere MONTH following the wedding I had my pictures BACK! I was shocked to have them so soon! They had taken over 1,500 pictures during the day, and I can't imagine the TIME it takes to thresh out the best of those shots, and edit them. We now begin the process of building an album, and Scott tells me "There's too many awesome pictures... it's too hard to choose!"

    Photography is something I cared a lot about, and I wanted it to be flawless. And it was. Talk about exceeding ALL expectations! And the best part? They're not "just" the photographer now... they're our friends. :-D

    Midwest LifeShots Photography was (Insert great words here)! Words cannot describe how happy my husband and I are for choosing them to capture out big day!

    Everyone was so nice, happy, upbeat, professional, and our pictures turned out AMAZING!

    Scott was so good about responding to my e-mails, and was very on top of things. Organized doesn't even begin to describe my wedding day!

    We received so many compliments on our photographers, and I know my sister will be using them when she gets married in a couple of years!

    So great!

    The entire team at Midwest LifeShots exceeded any and all expectations we had for our wedding day. We knew they were good but we didn't know HOW good they were at their job until we got our photos back. OUTSTANDING!

    Scott, Jen, and everyone else at Midwest LifeShots are incredibly courteous, professional, and way fun. They let me, the bride, get thrown in the air! Who does that?! We really loved every picture from the morning shots, to formals, to the first kiss and last picture of the night.

    Finally, we loved the value. We looked at close to 50 photographers and I'm so glad we chose Midwest LifeShots. We got soo much BANG for our buck. BOOK EARLY! These people know what their doing and they do it soo well!!!

    Midwest Lifeshots Photography was the highlight of our wedding day! (next to getting married, of course...) Scott and Jen were easy-going, professional, and spot-on when it came to spending the day with us and capturing the priceless moments we will cherish for a lifetime. A true class act, dynamic duo!

    When choosing a photographer, we evaluated mainly on style of photographs in a photographer's portfolio. In retrospect, however, we realized that the quality of photographs go hand-in-hand with the character of photographer(s). In our case, we hit the jackpot with Scott and Jen! Your photographers are there for every moment of the day, and they totally enhanced and added to the fun of everything that was happening.

    Also, on a logistical note, we live in Chicago but were married in Iowa. Rather than insisting we make the trip to Rochester for meetings, right away Scott was more than happy to set up virtual consults over Skype with us. This flexibility was a huge service to us, and it really set the tone that Midwest Lifeshots was our advocate throughout the entire planning process. Awesome. Their sense of humor, teamwork, and friendliness put our minds and perspective at ease with everything, from the big step towards marriage to the minor details of orchestrating the day.

    You simply cannot go wrong with the Elders. Photography that captures the beauty, mood, and memories from one of the most important days of your life is more than mere talent for the photographers at Midwest Lifeshots Photography. It is a passion for the people they work with, and a heart for the art they love.

    The pictures turned out great! Scott and Jen did an excellent job and was a joy to work with. We really enjoyed spending the day with them and had a lot of fun during the "just the couple" photo time. Everyone that has seen the pictures have raved about how well the pictures turned out. They were so accommodating to the last minute changes. We are very pleased with how everything turned out!

    Midwest LifeShots could not have made our wedding day photography a more enjoyable experience! The photographers were so helpful with everything and made sure the day ran smoothly and efficiently. They could not have been more respectful of our time and the time of our guests. We are so excited to show off our beautiful photos that tell the story of our amazing day. Thank you thank you thank you! We are eternally grateful.

    To say that my husband and I love our wedding photos is an understatement! We actually had a booking with another photographer but after we met with Scott and saw his and Jen's work - we knew it would be worth it to switch and go with them. We are so glad that we did, and all of our family and friends love the photos as much as we do. Can't wait to use them again in the future!

    Scott & Jen are amazing to work with. They are so fun and personable! We do not live in the same state but they have been great at getting back to me about times and dates and are also very flexible to get things to work around both of our schedules. Our pictures turned out amazing and I don't think I could be any happier!

    So you’re interested in Midwest Lifeshots, we were as well. Maybe you’ve noticed when researching them everyone gives them 5 stars across the board. I’m no different, I also gave them 5 stars, and there’s a reason for that. You just have to meet them. Words can barely describe how wonderful they were to work with. They captured everything just the way we wanted and so beautifully. The team was a treat to be with for the day. Every meeting we have with them might only be five minutes of business and an hour of laughing. Beth and I completely adore them. Please take the time to meet with them, you won’t be disappointed!

    Incredible overall experience. Everybody had so much fun with our wedding pictures and you can't find any faked smiles. The love and passion for what they do really shines through when you let them do their thing. Concurrently, the quality, integrity and professionalism are top of the line. We wouldn't hesitate recommending Midwest LifeShots to anyone. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

    Absolutely loved having Midwest LifeShots shoot our wedding. We’ve been getting a ton of complements on how amazing our pictures turned out. Our photographer’s Robin and Brynn where so energetic and fun to work with, we loved them. If you want some incredible photographs to go with the wonderful memories from your wedding I would definitely book Midwest LifeShots.

    Could not have picked or asked for better photographers! Dan and I are incredibly excited to have them shoot our wedding next October after seeing the work they did with our engagement session! Jen and Scott made the entire day so much fun - even Dan enjoyed it :) They let us have so much input as to what we wanted from the day and listened to all our ideas! They helped us find that perfect location that would capture us as a couple with hints of our actual engagement as well! You can not go wrong with these guys - they even answer emails with crazy questions at all hours of the day :)

    The quality of Midwest LifeShots photographs does not compare to other photo studios. Scott was incredible at being in contact with us and making sure we were scheduled and prepared for our photography. Our time with the photographers was wonderful. Midwest LifeShots does a wonderful job of taking average places with average people and making them look beautiful. We could not be more pleased with how our session went or how our photographs turned out. We plan to make yearly visits to Midwest LifeShots. They are professional and fun. Thank you Midwest LifeShots!
