About

My Name is Wendy Greenslade, and this is both my passion and profession. You will find my personal style to be artistic and genuine. I aspire to capture unique angles and memorable experiences. My goal is to create images that will be treasured for a lifetime.


I’m an extremely versatile photographer, which is really a reflection of who I am as a person. I thrive on the challenge of applying my skills to a variety of different types of shoots. My work varies from warm, heartfelt family moments to fast-paced, wild and funky projects like music or entertainment venues. I am a very professional, hard-working person devoted to my work as a photographer. I want your experience with me to be fun, comfortable, and exceed all your expectations!


I never did set out to be a photographer professionally… photography was always a hobby of mine, and it has always been very rare to catch me without a camera in hand. Over the years, the hobby turned into a passion and an outlet for my creativity. I strive to continually develop my craft and am constantly keeping up-to-date with classes and I enjoy learning from other photographers. I am particularly interested in the editing process, which satisfies my love for art and my developed style.


In addition to my work capturing special moments for individual clients and their families, I have added DeVry University to my client list for their RESTORE projects and faculty portraits

    Lifelong Photographer

    Where do I even begin! Wendy has been a godsend throughout the entire process. When covid hit she was reassuring, kind, and helpful. From our engagement photos, to planning, to our elopement, to our big wedding next year we could not have chosen a better photographer. My fiancé (now I get to call him husband!) calls her the greatest and we cannot wait to continue to work with her throughout our futures.


    Okay! Editing this to add how incredibly Wendy and her daughter, Skyllar, were at our small wedding this year. We postponed our big wedding, but Wendy encouraged us to do something small this year. They went up to Devils Lake, Wisconsin with us and 22 of our family members. They scoped out where to take the perfect photos and boy did they deliver. I can’t just pick one picture as my favorite because they are ALL so good. I can’t wait to work with them again next year. Skyllar caught some amazing shots, including one of a year running down my grooms cheek before our first look

    Three words: Wendy is amazing! We haven't even had our wedding yet but based on our engagement photos and how they turned out, I KNOW our wedding photos are going to be above and beyond amazing and will definitely exceed our expectations!

    Wendy is the type of business owner that gives her all to her clients. She spends so much time answering questions, walking you through the engagement session and wedding day process, helping you come up with day-of timelines for the wedding, and SO much more! She truly goes above and beyond for her clients.

    From our consultation where we built out our photo package, to the minute we arrived at our engagement session, Wendy has done everything possible to make us feel comfortable and confident so our photos look natural and show the personality of me and my fiancé. Nothing during the engagement session felt super forced or staged, which is why I LOVE our pictures so much! So many of our engagement photos show us laughing, talking, smiling, and just being our true selves. Wendy is hands down the best photographer in the game and I cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding in less than a month!

    Thank you for everything so far, Wendy!

    All I can say is WOW!!

    Wendy is nothing short of incredible. She shot my sister’s wedding a couple years back, and as soon as I saw the pictures, I knew we had to hire her for our big day. The picture quality, locations we took the shots and the way she put people together in the pictures were perfect. She was bubbly, and very sweet to our guests! She is quick and efficient on the wedding day, taking charge to make sure all your requested pictures are accomplished. She has great vision, and took some very modern, unconventional shots, which I was super excited about. I can not wait to see the pictures. Thank you, Wendy!!

    This team is amazing!!!!! I am simply blown away by the photographs and moments they captured on the best day of my life! They go above and beyond in every way shape and form (they helped my husband surprise me with a puppy on the big day). With Locked In, you get Wendy, but also Jose and Sonya and between the three of them you will get every shot you could want! They make it easy to feel relaxed and laugh even though you have been taking millions of pictures for 10+ hours. I would hire them again and again and again without a doubt!

    Wendy is absolutely amazing! I am not a big picture person or creative at ideas for pictures. However, she was able to get me excited about taking them & thinking of how to bring out ME on my day! Wendy & her staff are professional to the highest degree & have your best interests at the forefront of their work. I could not be happier with the results & will have so many memories to come back to because of the fantastic job Wendy & her crew did! We will be using her for all of our photo shoot needs because she is the BEST!

    Wendy is incredible! She truly thinks about what is best for the customer, how to create the best atmosphere, shots that will be loved and looked at for years to come and ones that are unique and fit the customer. We appreciate her time, energy, thoughtfulness and goal to create the best pictures you want.

    I don't even know where to start with Wendy.. She was absolutely AMAZING!! Seriously, I am SO happy that I went with her for my wedding. My expectations were far exceeded--as well as everyone at my wedding! I kept getting compliments and positive comments from my guests throughout the day and evening and for days after about her and her drive. She was so attentive to my every need and request, as well as things I never knew I could want. She is SO creative with such an artistic eye. She is such a friendly and wonderful person, to boot. She was contracted to work for 7 full hours at such a low cost, as well, which is a very nice bonus! I'm so pleased with my experience, that I've already rehired her for another shoot!! You will NOT be disappointed with her. If I could give her a 10-star review, I would! Love, love, love her! Can't wait to work with her again!

    Wendy did our engagement shoot and our wedding. Not only am I absolutely IN LOVE with my photos but also amazed at how she works. She is able to make you look like a model without even trying! She knows how you should stand/move to make the photo look amazing! I will ALWAYS recommend her for ANY photos that are needed. She also has amazing ideas for the day itself and is helpful when you aren't sure how to do something. I had MANY compliments after my wedding day on how hard she worked and how she did such a great job! I know that whenever I want professional great photos I will contact her!

    My wife and I had an excellent experience working with Wendy.
    Wendy is truly a pro, and extremely easy to work with. She's personable, and made the process of taking many pictures, a lot more comfortable and relaxed. The quality of Wendy's work is 2nd to none; our photos turned out amazing. From a guy's perspective, I truly valued her ability to keep things light, while still capturing the nights best moments. I would definitely recommend Wendy, and Locked In Photography.

    Wendy is an outstanding photographer! We first learned about Wendy through a friend and quickly realized why she was so highly recommended! We decided on Wendy’s wedding package that included both engagement photos and day of wedding photos. For engagement photos, Wendy met us downtown where we lived and traveled with us to three different locations in the city to capture some wonderful moments! She is dog friendly as well! Our pupper came to the first stop with us and Wendy was so patient with her. As for our wedding pictures, it’s really hard to sum it up on a few words. They were so beautiful and honestly everything I was looking for. The moments she captured, the scenery, and all the little details in between. She really works hard to do what you want on your special day. It was so hard to pick and choose photos for our photo album because there was so many that were loved!! I received so many compliments from friends and family, and I have two friends that are now using her for their weddings! She does not disappoint ladies! In fact, we just had her take our maternity pictures and again, I loved them all. The moments will be cherished forever! We plan to use her for our newborn pictures this November. Get in while you can! Wendy is a lifelong photographer for your family.

    Wendy is so amazing and wonderful to work with. She has taken so many photos of my family. My wedding was the best. She is organized, flexible and knows exactly what shots are the best. I couldn't have asked for a better person to shoot my most important time of my life. So grateful.

    There are not enough words in the dictionary for me to use to describe how much I ADORED Locked In Photography! She made everything throughout my experience seem effortless. As a bride planning her own wedding with only help from my mother, I had a lot on my plate. I also had ideas and dreams of what I wanted my wedding day to be. Wendy all of these possible. She would answer my crazy questions at any time of the day and would talk with me about planning the perfect setting for photos often on the phone. From our engagement pictures to our wedding day, everything was perfect. She spent so much extra time with us taking our engagement photos and made sure they all turned out exactly how we wanted. She got to know my husband's and mine preferences and personalties to truly capture our special day. I loved all the amazing ideas she had to bring our dream wedding to life. The day of the wedding she calmed all our nerves and made our experience so much fun! When we got our wedding photos back I couldn't believe how beautiful they were. All the tiny details you don't always think of come together in those pictures. Her photos tell a story of your wedding day, and brings me back to that special day every time I look at them. They will be something I cherish forever. I would recommend Locked In Photography to any bride! I cannot thank her enough for capturing our story so perfectly!

    I have to say that Locked In Photography was the best vendor we work with throughout our entire wedding. They were professional, attentive, and creative. Most of the other venders made it feel like we were on a assembly line but Locked in made everything personal and took the time to get to know us. Throughout the entire day she worked with us to go above and beyond and the pictures were perfect. I have and will continue to recommend locked in photography to anyone
