Memories for a Lifetime

On our one-year wedding anniversary, we decided to take a trip down memory lane by looking at each and every photo that Peter took on our special day. As we swiped through the photo album, it truly felt like we were re-living the day all over again. Peter captured every moment and emotion with a variety of candid and choreographed photos. In addition to amazing one-of-a-kind photos, Peter also made the experience fun, easy, and personal. There are a lot hard decisions to make when planning your wedding day, but we are confident in saying that choosing Peter as your photographer will be the easiest and best decision you’ll make!

Pick Peter!

Peter did my wedding at the beginning of June. He was so much fun to work with! Communication throughout was incredible. All emails were answered quickly. Very reasonably priced. He had the list of pictures we wanted handy and made sure we got them all. The end results were stunning! The moments he captured were all so amazing. The edited pictures were ready sooner than I was expecting. Our day was perfect and he caught that in every picture!

He is a great photographer and a very kind human

Peter did a fabulous job capturing our wedding day from beginning to end! He knew great spots in Milwaukee's Third Ward which made for beautiful backgrounds. Full disclosure, on my wedding day I was very nervous (especially knowing my every move was being photographed), but Peter made me feel comfortable and all of the photographs seemed natural and not forced. He is a great photographer and a very kind human. I couldn't recommend him enough!

The best, ever!

Seriously the best ever. Peter is going to be our life photographer now too. He did such a fantastic job for our engagement photos and our big day photos. He is kind and creative with his work. He makes everyone super comfortable and is such a professional at the same time. THANK YOU, PETER!

Peter was an absolute pleasure to work with!

We had to reschedule due to Covid, and he was super understanding and accommodating. He also provided a very detailed questionnaire that helped us plan out our timeline and photo opportunities. This helped tremendously to make sure we got every shot we wanted over the course of the day. We wanted to have mostly candid shots and Peter did such a great job capturing every emotion throughout the day. We’re very happy with how all our pictures turned out and can’t wait to recommend Peter to our friends and families for future events. Thank you so much Peter!

We could not have asked for a better photographer! Peter went above and beyond for all of our pictures. He is so creative and really cares about your wedding. My wedding was on 10-19-19 and even the guests had comments on how well Peter was doing. Not only did we have an amazing photographer we gained a friend!! Would recommend 100 come over and one again.

Awesome photographer

I think it took us a whole year to write a review because we have been so busy looking at all our amazing wedding photos all the time! Peter is amazing to work with! He is super responsive and professional and passionate about what he does. He was really detail oriented to all of our plans leading up to the wedding. On our wedding day, he was super fun to work with and made us feel really comfortable (and attractive). At the end of the day, he felt like another one of our friends. Above all, Peter does amazing work and we are obsessed with all of our photos. Look no further for a wedding photographer! Peter is a great choice!

Fun experience, gorgeous photos

Peter photographed our courthouse elopement in Milwaukee. He was wonderful! From his communication beforehand, he got to know us and what we were looking for. On the day, he jumped right into action, arranging detail shots and posing us as we got ready in our hotel room. He was totally game to jump in a Lyft, find great-looking nooks and crannies in the courthouse, lie on the Milwaukee sidewalk in March to get a great shot, and go to a dive bar in the middle of the day (those are some of my favorite pictures). His laidback and fun personality made it easy to loosen up in front of the camera. The finished photos are beautiful and just what we wanted. We'll enjoy them for many years to come. I would 100% recommend Peter for your wedding photos.

Amazingly friendly, personable and talented photographer will make your day special!


Peter has an amazing eye for photography and it's easy to see that it is his true passion. He is so easy to work with and a true professional. He made my wife and I feel so comfortable on our wedding day and I'm pretty sure he even had a little bit of fun :) I will always recommend Peter and his amazing photography skills to anyone in need as there is no way you could be disappointed with his services!

Incredible Pictures - Super Nice Photography Team

Peter and his assistant were both wonderful people to work with! They were very accommodating and helped us find locations for pictures (we are not from WI) and they helped keep us on schedule from place to place! Peter is so creative - he took pictures of us in the rain and they were absolutely stunning!

Cannot say enough good things about him!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
