About

Owners Scott and Jen are passionate about their work and believe that great photography is about people as much as it is about quality images. A wedding is a special occasion and a chance to celebrate the love that unites two people. Scott and Jen aren't interested in posed photographs of people. Their aim is to capture those lovely, candid moments that reveal their subjects' unique character and inner beauty.

Phenomenal photographers!

Scott and Jen are amazing - their professionalism, friendliness, amazing customer service and sense of humor were all things we loved about them. Every time we worked with them for our engagement and wedding photos it was non-stop laughter and fun times. They truly allowed us to have the wedding of our dreams and captured every detail perfectly. We are blown away by how wonderful of an experience we had working with Midwest LifeShots!

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.

Love love love

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!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
