Wedding & Elopement Photographer
Serving Wisconsin & beyond

Hey I'm Savannah!

Hi, I’m Savannah — a passionate visual storyteller with a deep love for capturing moments that matter. Whether it’s the raw emotion of a wedding, the excitement of a surprise proposal, or the spark of creativity in a portrait session, my camera is my way of seeing the world — and sharing it with others.

With 7+ years of experience behind the lens, I’ve developed a style that blends neutral and earthy tones to create timeless images full of depth and soul. My goal? To make you feel something when you look at your photos — to bring you back to a moment, a feeling, a story.

Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I’m available for shoots locally and beyond. Let’s create something beautiful together.

about

"Photography is the story I fail to put into words.” – Destin Sparks

My journey into photography didn’t start with a fancy camera — it started with curiosity. I was always drawn to the little details: the way  a single strand of hair falls across a face, the stories told in glances, the fleeting beauty of everyday moments. What began as a creative outlet quickly grew into a lifelong passion.

Over the years, I’ve perfected my craft through countless shoots, late-night edits, and real-life lessons. From my very first photo session to where I am today, every step has shaped the way I see and document the world.
Photography has taken me to bustling streets, joyful reunions, across the globe (literally!) and I’ve learned that the most powerful images come from being fully present.

This is more than a job — it’s a way of connecting, of witnessing, of preserving emotion in its most honest form. And I’m just getting started.

Here's to many more adventures and shoots
xoxo, 
Savannah Rader

my journey

Things i love

Beyond the camera, I’m a collector of many joys. I love to travel the world, spend slow mornings with my sweet pup, Remi and enjoy the quiet click of a shutter when everything feels just right.

I’m inspired by  the places I see and the people I meet along the way. These wonderful experiences have forever shaped me to who and where I am today. 

Photography is my first love — but it’s the world around me that keeps the fire alive.

testimonials

what past clients say

"Savannah was absolutely wonderful! After stumbling upon her Instagram page, I contacted her for last minute fall family photos. She was very responsive and happy to squeeze us in her schedule. We couldn't be more happy with our gallery and her pricing! We will be referring  her to family and friends in the area!"  

Baeten Family

Working with Kelly was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first conversation, she felt more like a friend than a vendor—someone who genuinely cared about our story. On the day itself, she moved with such calm presence, effortlessly capturing the raw, real, and tender moments we didn’t even notice at the time. Our photos are pure magic. Every time we look at them, we’re transported right back into that joy.
