Mom of 6, wife, family manager, former EMT and a self-proclaimed photography nerd. I started in the wedding industry as an assistant photographer when I was just 16 [way back in 2006!] and instantly fell in love. From the intimate love-soaked moments to the crazy and hilarious dance moves at the reception, everything about it called out to my soul. I think having that kind of passion for weddings is not only important but necessary. If your photographer is just as excited about your day as you are, you know they're going to treat your wedding as if it were their own, which is exactly what I do. I go all in to get the best shots, constantly looking around for perfect candids, planning epic shots out days or weeks before the big day, and finding inspiration on the day of to come up with new and fun ideas for poses that match my couple's personalities. I want my couples to look back on their photos and not just see memories, but feel the love, happiness, and energy in them, which is why I always give every wedding day my all. So if you're looking for a photographer with a bubbly, energetic personality who loves your wedding day just as much as you do, look no further!
WHAT JANALEE HAS TO SAY ABOUT HER
Taber has an infectious personality, skills for days, and some fun equipment. I love that she is constantly striving to learn and better her craft.
Her wedding albums are full of beautiful photos but some of my favorite shots from her are:
-Her candids
-Her artistic couple photos
- Her crisp detail shots
- Her off camera flash nighttime shots.

Our journey together begins with an initial consultation where we meet to discuss your vision for your wedding day.
During this meeting, I'll gather information about you as a couple and what you're envisioning for your big day.
I'll walk you through how we run a typical wedding day, including timeline suggestions and our overall photography style.
It's also an opportunity for you to ask questions about me, my style, packages, pricing, and any additional services I offer.
1. Say Hello
2. Booking & contract signing
Once you decide to move forward, we'll secure your date by signing a contract and paying a deposit.
The contract outlines the terms of our service, including the package you've selected, payment schedule, cancellation policy, and rights to the images.
It's essential for both of us to review and sign the contract to ensure clarity and avoid any misunderstandings later on.
3. Engagement Session (Optional):
If you choose, we can schedule an engagement session.
This session allows us to get comfortable working together and helps me understand your dynamic and preferences before the wedding day.
It's a fun opportunity for us to capture some beautiful images of you as a couple.
4. Final Preparations
As your wedding day approaches, we'll work closely together to finalize the timeline and overall plan for the day.
We'll discuss key moments, such as the ceremony, reception, and any special traditions or cultural elements you want me to capture.
The pre wedding questionnaire I send your way will make sure I have all of the information needed for the big day, like the schedule of events, including locations, a family shot list, and any restrictions or special instructions from the venue.
5. wedding day coverage & delivery
On your wedding day, I'll typically arrive to capture some getting ready shots and stay throughout the day to document every moment.
I'll work discreetly to capture candid moments as well as posed portraits of you, your wedding party, and your guests.
After the wedding, I'll carefully cull and edit the images to ensure they meet my high-quality standards. The final edited photos will be delivered to you via an online gallery where you can then view, download, and share your images with family and friends, reliving the memories of your special day for years to come. If you'd like, I can also assist you with printing and creating beautiful keepsakes, such as albums or canvases, to preserve these precious memories for generations.

For our wedding in March of 2024, we had Taber take our photos. Let me just say, she was a delight to work with and the gallery we received after all was said and done, was absolutely breathtaking. Janalee and Taber made the process and experience beyond amazing because I felt like I didn't have to worry! 1000/10 would recommend Janalee and her team!
Our wedding photos are stunning! Our photographer, Taber, was super experienced and knew all of the best photographs to take to make sure that we had all the important moments of our special day recorded. She made sure to capture all of the candid shots of us just having fun with each other and our friends and ensured that we had gorgeous and romantic sunset photos. We got out gallery back within just a few weeks and couldn't be happier!
We hired Janalee for our engagement & wedding photos and she was amazing!! She is professional, fun, easy to work with and made wedding photos a breeze! We highly recommend JB Photography if you’re looking for engagement, wedding, family photos, etc.! Thanks Janalee for being a part of our special day!!
We hired Janalee to do our engagement and wedding photos, and we LOVED working with her! She is so responsive, easy to work with, personable, and a great value. We were thrilled with her quick turnaround for the sneak peak of our wedding photos (we got them the next morning!), and our wedding party and guests agreed that she was a wonderful asset to the day. We relied on her for photo ideas, and she suggested the location for the engagement session. All look great!
Janalee helped make our day so beautiful and perfect! We are so happy we selected her as our photographer. She was not only so helpful in the pre-wedding process, but she was also so nice and professional on the big day. She helped my husband and I with natural poses and completely brought our vision to life. We recently got our photos back and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend JB Photography for other Milwaukee-area couples.
Janalee is the best! We had so much fun with her during our engagement session and she went above and beyond on our wedding day. She had great recommendations for our wedding timeline, helped me fix my veil after the hair stylist attached it wrong, had excellent ideas for shots all over our venue, and again was just so easy and fun to work with! We love our preview and can’t wait for the full album! Definitely recommend to anyone getting married in the MKE/Madison area!
