…Since Scott and Julia’s wedding, I have shared the jaw-dropping photos taken by Roost Photography… Everyone is speechless.

Not only was the venue’s beauty and splendor - Milwaukee Art Museum - showcased, but more importantly, Scott and Julia’s spirit, emotions, and excitement were expertly captured in every photo. We all want beautiful wedding photos, but these are pieces of art, created by a master. The videos posted to Instagram are super great. Bravo!

I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer because you can't go wrong. The best.”

“A breath of fresh air on our wedding day!… If you want someone with great energy and vibes, who will deliver photos that represent you, Brandon is a perfect choice.”

I’ve known Brandon a long time, but my partner did not know him before we met to see if he’d be a good fit for our wedding. Now we are confident that Brandon was the perfect photographer for us. His personality was very go-with-the-flow, while still being efficient and effective at getting us the shots we wanted to capture. He gave us direction and ideas, but we never felt pressured to do anything we weren’t comfortable with, just for the sake of a picture. Though we were nervous about our engagement photo session, the time just flew by.

Having spent time with Brandon on the engagement photos, we were more comfortable on our wedding day with him, too. On our wedding day, Brandon and Josh captured the essence of the day and all the shots we wanted. When we got our galleries from the engagement shoot and our wedding, we had so many wonderful pictures to use. Brandon’s photos show us as we really are, and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. If you want someone with great energy and vibes, who will deliver photos that represent you, Brandon is a perfect choice.

“Best Photographer Ever! Brandon was outstanding.

“My husband and I had never taken professional photos prior to our wedding, so we opted for the engagement session in addition to the day of wedding photos. Brandon was like our long-lost best friend from the moment we met him. He made us feel immediately comfortable and gave such great direction. I love his energy, passion, and especially his editing style. We were married at Turner Hall Ballroom, and the photos are to die for. They allow me to relive the entire day every time I look through them. They always say to invest in your photos for your wedding because you'll have them forever.

I couldn't be happier with our choice to go with Brandon at RoostMKE.

He even got us featured with Married in Milwaukee #goals. Thank you, Brandon. I will recommend you to any and everyone I know!”

“Extremely Talented and Thoughtful… My husband and I could not be happier with our choice to hire Brandon of Roost Photography to capture our wedding day.

We really wanted the best of the best, and we were not disappointed. From the moment we met him, we knew he would be the perfect fit for us.

The photos from our day turned out beautifully. He captured our day in the exact way that we had hoped. The photos of the two of us showed our love for one another, and our personalities came through, too. He caught all of the details and special moments - even the one of a post-ceremony chat with Grandma. Every shot is well thought out, from the composition to the angle to how the light hits the subject just right to the overall mood. There is an abundant amount of care and attention that goes into each photo, and it shows.

Not only is Brandon an extremely talented photographer, but he is also a great presence to have around on such a crazy day. Being in front of a camera can make a lot of people feel awkward, but his direction and calm demeanor made everyone feel at ease.

We would 100% recommend Roost Photography if you're looking for both great quality and care.

Thank you again and again, Brandon!”

“Quality photography was the number one most important factor in our wedding planning, and we got exactly that by hiring Brandon of Roost Photography.

Brandon was easy to work with from our first consultation, through the whirlwind planning (4-month engagement), for an awesome date night engagement photo session, and clearly, the entire day of the wedding. We never felt like we were just another job to Brandon. We got to know each other, and valued his advice on all things wedding-related. We had a couple of non-traditional items in our wedding that have special meaning to us. Brandon picked up on what was important to us and made sure to include all the special items and events.

Brandon's passion and experience are evident in his work. We had an incredible wedding day, and now we have the pictures to remember it forever.”

Choose Brandon, you won't regret it!

My husband and I had Brandon photograph our wedding this September, and we couldn’t have been luckier! From the very beginning, he was responsive, helpful, and organized, which is key when you’re planning such a big event. He even offered to (and did) chauffeur us around on our big day since we decided against renting a party bus. (What a guy!) Not only is Brandon an all-around awesome person to spend a day with, but he’s got the skills to match. Wedding photos are one of the few tangible things you keep from your wedding day, so we placed a lot of importance on picking the right photographer. We really admired Brandon’s previous work, and when it came to our wedding, Brandon did not disappoint!

Not only did he capture beautiful photographs that we get to show people for the rest of our lives, but he also managed to make them look just as magical as the day felt.

Thank you, Brandon! We are so grateful.”

“Roost Photography was amazing!

Planning a wedding during the shutdown & pandemic was not the easiest scenario; Brandon was flexible and helpful. We cancelled our big wedding and rescheduled a mini wedding at our parents’ house. He was on board the entire time, even through the back and forth while we were trying to figure out what was important to us. What amazing photography! He captured the drama I wanted along with the bright outdoor wedding I was picturing. The day was perfect! Brandon was right there for every moment. Thank you, Brandon. We appreciate you so much!”

Our wedding photos are beautiful. He captured our many emotions throughout the day. He is so kind, fun-loving, and easy to work with. We were really thankful for his clear & knowledgeable direction the entire day. We appreciated how he took the lead on all things related to our photos. He is very professional, yet so personable. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day! We highly recommend Roost Photography to our (MANY) friends who are in the engagement/marriage season :)”

“Brandon did such a great job with our wedding photos.

I am so glad we went with Roost Photography! He met with us several times and planned out every step of the day, and was super flexible and receptive. It rained throughout our wedding day, but Brandon had planned out several beautiful outdoor, covered locations to shoot at, so we still got amazing outdoor pictures in spite of the weather. He put us at ease and gave really great directions that made shooting easy and the pictures natural-looking. The packages are also a great value. I would truly recommend Roost Photography to anyone.”

Brandon is the BEST. No questions asked!

I cannot speak highly enough about Brandon at Roost Photography. He is the absolute best. Besides his glorious photography skills, my favorite thing about Brandon is his character. He is generous, humble, selfless, and hilarious. He has quickly become one of my favorite people EVER - it was an honor and a privilege to be able to spend time with him on my wedding day. Brandon also made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, which was very important to us. We never felt awkward, uncomfortable, or posed. Brandon also did our engagement photographs, which turned out absolutely perfect.

I would 100% recommend Roost Photography over and over again.”

This is the photographer you want for your wedding

We couldn't be happier with our experience having Brandon as our wedding photographer. He has a warm way of connecting with you (and we only met him on our wedding day, so that says a lot). We knew from the moment we set up our initial video chat that he was our guy. He's extremely responsive, caring, thorough, and an all-around great guy - all the qualities we were looking for in a photographer. He does a great job of taking into consideration all of the shots on your "wish list," and he sure did deliver for us! His photos made us smile, laugh, and cry. They were so touching. We got married in March in Milwaukee, so, as you can imagine, the weather was quite cold, and we had lots of rain/sleet. That didn't stop Brandon from making sure to get all the photos we were hoping for. He braved all the elements of that day with us and made it enjoyable!

Without hesitation, we highly recommend Brandon for any and all of your events.”

“I had to write a review of the experience with Brandon
on our wedding day, because he was so fantastic!

First off, we planned our Milwaukee wedding from Connecticut, and Brandon was incredibly helpful. We had a couple of Zoom meetings with him to go over details, and we were very impressed with his organization and thoughtfulness. Our wedding day was perfect, and Brandon brought so much fun energy and had really unique ideas for photography locations. All of our guests LOVED working with him. We really can't find the words to express how grateful we are to him for all of his hard work. Brandon sent us a "sneak peek" video montage of special moments from our wedding day, a few days after, and it is just perfect! We've watched it about a hundred times, and it has us so excited to see the rest of the photos. Best wedding photographer in Milwaukee!!

“We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer!

Brandon was responsive, knowledgeable, personable, and a breeze to work with. In addition to taking wonderful shots of the wedding party and family, Brandon managed to capture all of the little moments throughout our day that we didn't know we missed. Our final wedding album was a true representation of our entire wedding day and all those we celebrated with. Brandon was also super flexible with choosing locations -- we ended up going to a bookstore for a series of shots because we're both avid writers and readers. So fun.

All this to say: Book Brandon now! You won't regret it.”

“We are so happy we had Brandon to shoot our special day!

From our initial call to our wedding day, he was thoughtful in taking into account all the shots we wanted. He was so communicative throughout, from making suggestions for shots we didn't know we'd want to sending sneak peeks to us while we waited for the full photo sets to be ready. Our wedding photos turned out amazing!

Brandon…[these photos] are amazing, and you have captured our day just how we’d hoped!”
