Do you photograph weddings, portraits and families in Somerset, WI?
Yes. Somerset, WI sits in the St. Croix Valley on the metro's eastern edge. I photograph weddings, portraits and families in Somerset, WI and plan each day around the venue, the light and the timing that come with the St. Croix Valley area.
Somerset is a village along the Apple River, with camping and tubing outfits on the water, so weddings here lean toward a wooded riverside venue with cabins, a golf-course ballroom and village riverside parks.
