Jordan and Melissa // The Waterfront Cargill Room // LaCrosse WI Wedding Photographer // Jessica Brandau Photography

Jordan and Melissa’s wedding day was absolutely lovely. I know I say that about pretty much every. single. wedding. that I photograph, but it is true. They were married at The Waterfront on a Friday in July, with only their closest friends and family in tow. The entire day had an amazing laid-back low key […]

Jessica and Josh // Backyard Wedding // Hatfield, WI Wedding Photographer // Black River Falls, WI Wedding Photographer // Jessica Brandau Photography

I spent all day yesterday trying to think about how I could best describe Jess and Josh’s wedding day. Simple. Down to Earth. Natural. Fun. Laid back. Their day was all of these words and so much more. They started the day with a downpour (good luck on your wedding day!), but they took it

Laquita and Jeff // LaCrosse, WI Wedding Photographer // Celebrations on the River // Jessica Brandau Photography

The very first time I met Laquita and Jeff I just knew that they would be fabulous to photograph. Laquita is quite possibly the sweetest human being that I have ever met, has great style, and is just super down to earth and welcoming…and the very first conversation I had with Jeff was about scheduling

Sara and Mike // Mauston, WI Wedding Photographer // Jessica Brandau Photography // Outdoor Wedding Reception // Midwest Wedding Photographer

You know what I love most about couples? When they go off the beaten path and do their wedding THEIR way. Sara and Mike nixed the traditional wedding day timeline and got married on a Saturday morning.  Sara’s attention to detail was perfection, and it really showed in the cake, centerpieces, and in her dress

Natalie and Brian // Waukesha, WI Wedding Photographer // Midwest Wedding Photographer // Jessica Brandau Photography

I had been looking forward to Natalie and Brian’s wedding day since I first met them for their engagement session last year. They were adorable in front of my lens then, and again at their wedding a couple of weeks ago. They had a beautiful ceremony at Carroll College in Waukesha, WI (which Brian’s dad

Jeff and Kaleigh // Tomah, WI Wedding // Jessica Brandau Photography // Wisconsin Wedding Photographer

Jeff and Kaleigh’s wedding day- where do I start?! I have been looking forward to working with these two since Jeff hired me to shoot their proposal a year and a half ago. (you can re-live that amazing moment by clicking here.) They were absolutely adorable then, and I have loved working with them every

Derek and Emily // Cashton, WI // Sparta, WI // Hometown Wedding // Jessica Brandau Photography

Do you want my honest opinion? The absolute best thing a couple can do on their wedding day is to make sure it reflects them as a couple. And Emily and Derek did just that. They were married in a beautiful local church, stopped by their family farm for some photos, and then to the

Dillon and Tori // Vernon Vineyard’s Wedding // Pedretti’s Party Barn // Jessica Brandau Photography // Viroqua, WI // Sunday Morning Wedding

Did you guys ever watch Father of the Bride? You know that bit when George sees Annie sleeping on the couch with a bridal magazine (shortly after he loses it in the grocery store aisle, over the hotdog buns. (I die. Every time. lol)) and he says something along the lines of “I thought weddings

Kelli and Brett // Wisconsin Dells Wedding Photographer // Madison Wedding Photographer // Wisconsin Winter Wedding

Confession: I don’t get a lot of winter wedding bookings. And it really is a shame, because winter weddings can be absolutely beautiful. Kelli and Brett’s day was gorgeous, complete with a candlelight ceremony, lots of sparkles, a s’mores bar, and some amazing friends and family. Despite it being cold outside the entire day couldn’t

Jessica Brandau Photography // 2016 Favorites // Midwest Wedding Photographer // Wisconsin Wedding Photographer // Madison, WI Wedding Photographer

I am not going to lie. With 5 kids, 2 dogs, a farm to help run, a full time job, and a photography business to juggle my plate is FULL. Sometimes it’s easy for me to get sucked into the crazy and get overwhelmed by it all, but do you know what helps me keep
