It’s us – Mai See and Chee La (My-C and Chi-La). We are a husband and wife photography team based out of Berlin, WI. If you’re here, that must mean that you want to get to know us better!

First of all, we’re total romantics. We met each other during our first year at university and became college sweethearts (first boyfriend / girlfriend too!). We believe in love – true love. The kind that makes you feel like the luckiest person in the world. The kind that makes your heart swell with happiness. I’m not embarrassed to say that we’re totally sappy and have always had the belief that everyone deserves love.

We love adventures! From hiking in the mountains, to swimming in the ocean, or walking through centuries old buildings, and eating street food all around the world. Our love for travel and photography began during our first overseas trip to Japan. With a tiny point-and-shoot camera, we fell in love with the beautiful scenery, delicious food and culture, and started our photo journey. Over the years, we have collected many irreplaceable photographs from all over the world and our daily life. We still love traveling and plan to visit more countries in the future!

we love adventures!

While traveling is exciting, we love coming back to our quiet country home every time. Our days are filled with chasing after the sweetest little girl. We always knew we wanted to be parents but nothing could have prepared us for how much joy and meaning it would bring to our lives. It's truly a blessing to be parents. We have another little one making their appearance in April 2024!

As a family, we love exploring all the beautiful nature areas around us. Our hikes aren't exactly what they used to be with a little one but we get out as often as possible! We're also hoping to get out on the river more this year and do a lot of fishing. Our sweet Luna is 2 now and should finally be big enough to throw her own rod! She's Chee La's little mini me so I'm sure she is going to love it. At home, you might find Chee La outside taking care of the yardwork or in our rustic garage working his on pride and joy Celicas (yes, more than one!). As for me, you’ll find me inside cooking and trying out new recipes. Food is definitely my love language. When we have free time, we love just spending time doing absolutely NOTHING at home and re-watching our favorite shows like Full Metal Alchemist, The Office, and Scrubs. 

so what do we do when we're not taking photos or traveling?

why you should pick us to capture your memories!

We truly believe that photos are a treasure that you can keep forever. We would love to be a part of capturing your story. We love laughter and want your session to be a rewarding, fun experience. We will hike anywhere with you to get that perfect shot and we are not afraid to get a little dirty or a lot dirty. If that sounds like you, send us a message. While we service the surrounding areas of Berlin, Oshkosh, Appleton – traveling is one of our favorite things to do and we would love to capture your photos no matter where you are! 

Cheers,
Mai See & Chee La
