About
Hello! Thanks for stopping by! My name is Joani Wangerin. I love people, am passionate about creative and visual arts, am completely committed to excellence, and have an insatiable appetite for telling my clients' stories. I'm a journalistic photographer and I love capturing your story. Every little intimate look...every smile and burst of laughter...every nod, wink, and tear... each and every moment that makes your day uniquely yours. If you're in need of an event planner, I'd love to assist with that as well! I founded and ran a performing and visual arts school for 25+ years, and have always loved creating spaces and places for magic to happen. From 5-5000, I love designing events that will never be forgotten...by the bride and groom AND their guests. In my opinion, there is nothing more fulfilling! I would love nothing more than to meet you (coffee or a phone chat is fine) and hear about your upcoming event. And if I can add my imagination and years of experience to help make your dream come true, nothing would make me happier! Let's connect! Joani

Joani was truly a DREAM to work with. She gave me tips on planning and how we could schedule around sunset pictures. She showed up super early on my wedding day to get pictures of us getting ready and was very professional. If you're like me and have no idea what poses/pictures you want, she will absolutely help you! The pictures came back SUPER fast, and the quality was amazing. Forever grateful for the memories I get to look back on because of her!!

Details: Wedding • 50 - 99 guests • Outdoors • Physical proofs or prints • Flash drive

Joani and Mark did an amazing job with our wedding photos! Joani picked up the phone to call me and gave me a thorough description of what to expect. She helped me run through the options of capturing the whole day and gave me tips for organizing the schedule to get everything that i wanted in, especially the couples photos for sunset timing.
