Natalie is the most amazing person you will ever meet! We hired her for our engagement shoot and wedding day which were about a year and a half apart. For the engagement shoot we originally planned to meet at Minooka Park in Waukesha very early in the morning since I wanted a sunrise shoot. The road to the park ended up being closed for construction and we couldn't figure out how to get inside! After a brief meeting we figured out another place to go close by which was probably better than where we planned on going anyway! She was really easy to work with and made posing feel so simple. I forgot to mention we included our dog in the photoshoot! He has a bit of separation anxiety so he will bark nonstop even if he is tied up 5 feet away. Natalie was so amazing...she held his leash and fed him treats WHILE she took photos of us! They turned out so good too!

Leading up to the wedding Natalie checked in with me via email and made sure our planning was all on time. She came to the final walk through at the venue and had so many good ideas (my luck she had just gotten married a few months prior) and noted the type of lighting she would be working with. We got married at the Milwaukee Public Museum so the lighting was very dim. The week before the wedding...without being asked...she went back to the museum to do even more scouting and made sure she knew how to take the pictures in the different lighting throughout the museum. The morning of the wedding she shows up at the hotel suite in the cutest outfit! I'm in the chair getting my hair done when she gets there so she immediately got to work taking pics of me. While we get ready she goes back and forth between the guys and girls rooms taking the typical shot list. she never appeared to be rushed and all photos were taken on time. Before leaving the hotel she takes the wedding party shots outside in the freezing cold and it was so windy, She was the real champ cheering us on to take the pics fast and we did! She then leaves for the Museum and by the time I get there her and her second shooter are already running around with equipment getting to work. I never saw either of them during the ceremony (which is good) but boy did they get some amazing shots! After the ceremony we started taking the planned shot list. They posed us and told us how to move or what to do so that they could get the shots that they wanted. Everything went well with just the bride and groom list. Out of nowhere the DJ gets on the speaker system and and says it's time for everyone to take their seats for dinner. I start freaking out because we haven't even begun the family list yet. Natalie was great though. She was really fast with helping get everyone together. I think in total it took an additional 20-25 minutes to finish those pictures and the grooms side is very large! The second shooter leaves after dinner and the first dances. Natalie sticks around for another 2 hours maybe? She got really good pictures of the guys on the dance floor...I can't wait to see what else!

As Natalie was leaving she said that she would have the highlight real to me within the week which would be around 80 pictures. I got married on a Friday and received the link to the gallery the following Wednesday with about 140 pictures! I think she said the rest approx. 800 pictures will get to me within a month. I can't wait to see the rest!

Natalie was a wonderful photographer! She was very responsive and organized, working with us as we adapted and changed our wedding due to COVID. She listened to what we wanted and made sure that we got the photos that we wanted. We would definitely recommend her to others!

We had Natalie for our engagement photographer and also at our wedding. She made Nate and I feel so calm and natural. She was so organized and had great photo ideas. Our pictures truly turned out so beautiful.

We hired Natalie for our wedding this past year and I could not be any more happy with how everything turned out. She was a big help in capturing all the big and little moments on our wedding day and the photos are amazing. I highly recommend her.

We went out for a winter engagement shoot and I could not imagine better results! Natalie knew exactly how to make us feel comfortable and pose us and the pictures turned out amazing. I highly recommend popping some champagne during the photo shoot for a bit of added fun and some great action shots!

Natalie made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera – I am not even sure how. It was a bit of magic! It really shows when we look at our pictures! We look so happy, comfortable and in love! I especially loved that Natalie had a ton of ideas that turned out wonderfully! And that she was more then happy to try my ideas as well :)

We had our engagement photos taken by Natalie in a snowstorm and we get SOOO many compliments! I recommend Three:Seventeen Photography to anyone looking for a stress free experience with great results!!

“Natalie was an AMAZING photographer for our wedding! I would and have recommended her to all of my friends, and have seen her work several other weddings as well. She is incredibly professional and worked tirelessly all day for our big event, even pitching in with help setting up and tearing down. At the same time she had my bridesmaids and I laughing all day and was truly part of the joyful experience of our big day. Our photos were available soon after the wedding and each and every one of them was truly beautiful. Natalie knows how to capture the essence and personality of the couples she works with, and my hubby and I will treasure our wedding photos for the rest of our lives!”
