Full service wedding & bo***ir studio located in Monticello, Illinois. 🤍✨

Est. 2010

After being a professional photographer for over a decade, I have only fallen more in love with the art and the clients I serve because of it. Whether you’re a bride, a couple deep in love, or a growing family, these are special times in your life and I don’t take my job lightly. There’s a good chance when we meet, you’ll find me sipping iced coffee or tea out of one of my many tumblers and wearin

g a smile. I enjoy leaving people better than I found them and I really think photography has given me the opportunity to do just that. I am excited for you to visit my page www.lisashreffler.com to learn more about how becoming a LSP Client isn’t your typical photography experience; it is customized with you in mind from start to finish!

A reminder for my future self, too. 🩷

07/06/2026

One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that almost every woman reaches out with some version of the same sentence.

“I’ve wanted to do this for years…”

Usually it’s followed by a reason she hasn’t.

She’s nervous.

She doesn’t know how to pose.

She wants to lose a little more weight first.

She’s worried she’ll make it awkward.

I always smile when I read those messages because I know how different they’re going to feel a few weeks later.

By the time someone leaves the studio, we aren’t talking about posing anymore. We’re talking about her kids, her husband, the vacation she’s excited about, or the project she’s finally starting. Somewhere along the way, the nerves disappear and she’s just… herself.

That’s my favorite part.

The photographs matter, of course. But watching a woman walk out the door a little lighter than she walked in is something I’ll never get tired of.

That’s really why I created this $17.76 celebration. I know there are women who have been quietly thinking, “Maybe someday.” I just wanted to make it a little easier to take that first step.

If you’ve been thinking about it too, send me a message. We can simply talk through it. No pressure, no expectations. 🤍

I hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend. ❤️🤍💙

One thing I’ve been reminding myself lately is to step into the picture more often.

Not because every photo is flattering or composed exactly right, but because these ordinary days have a way of becoming some of our favorite memories.

I’m really glad I did this weekend. Even if I felt silly doing the second pose in front of my sister’s whole family! 🥰

Now I’d love to know - did you step into a few pictures of your own this weekend?

And while you’re at it…

What’s one Fourth of July tradition you hope never changes?

Before everyone heads into the holiday weekend, I wanted to share one thought…

Get in the picture.

I know all the reasons we tell ourselves not to.

We don’t love our hair.

We wish our body looked different.

We’re tired.

We’ll do it next time.

But years from now, the people who love you won’t be looking at those things.

They’ll be looking for you.

I hope this weekend is filled with laughter, good food, fireworks, and photographs with the people you love.

Happy Fourth of July weekend. ❤️🤍💙

I’ve been thinking a lot about the word “someday.”

I’ll celebrate someday.

I’ll get in the pictures someday.

I’ll slow down someday.

I’ll feel more confident someday.

The truth is, life has a way of filling every empty space we leave for “someday.” ⌛️

Just this morning, I realized I’m officially 52 pounds lighter than I was four years ago.

And you know what surprised me when it came time to find an old picture for this post?

I don’t have many photographs of myself from those years. 🥺

At the time, I avoided the camera because I didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin. Looking back, I understand why.

But I also wish I had allowed myself to be seen a little more.

Not because I miss feeling uncomfortable or embarrassed.

But because those photographs would tell the story of how far I’ve come.

They would remind me of the determination, the growth, the hard work, and the woman who kept showing up even when the journey felt long. 💪

Our photographs aren’t only about capturing who we are today.

Sometimes they’re about helping us remember where we’ve been.

Maybe you’ve been waiting until you lose the weight.

Maybe you’re waiting until life slows down.

Maybe you’re waiting until you feel more confident.

I’ve learned that every season has something worth remembering.

Not because every season is easy.

Because every season is part of your story.

Maybe we don’t have to wait for “someday” to celebrate the story we’re living.

If a bo***ir session has been on your heart, I’d love to chat with you. Drop a comment or send me a dm so we can schedule a time to connect. 🤍

These days, I’m more aware than ever of how quickly time passes. 🥹

Ten weeks ago, I was learning how to be this little boy’s momma. Today, he’s already changed in ways I couldn’t have imagined he would. Every day, he looks a little different, learns something new, and grows just a little more.

It’s beautiful...and it reminds me that every season is fleeting.

As our country celebrates 250 years of courage, hope, and freedom, I can’t help but think about another kind of freedom.

The freedom to see yourself with kindness, confidence, and grace.

The freedom to honor the woman you’ve become through every season.

That’s what inspired something special I wanted to share with you.

Because your story matters.

Not someday.

Not when life feels less busy.

Not when you lose the weight.

Not when you finally feel ‘ready.’

It matters today.

To celebrate this milestone for America The Beautiful, I’m opening a limited number of sessions at the studio. During this celebration, you can reserve your date for just $17.76. 🥰

Your session can take place anytime between now and the end of February, giving you plenty of time to plan, spread out payments if you’d like, and choose the season that feels right for you.

My hope is that when you walk through my studio doors, you feel cared for. That you can slow down, take a deep breath, and simply enjoy being celebrated for the woman you are today. I’ll gently guide you every step of the way, so all you have to do is show up and allow yourself to be cared for.

Here’s to 250 years of courage, hope, and freedom...and to celebrating the freedom to see yourself with kindness, confidence, and grace.

If this has been on your heart, send me a message or email [email protected]. I’d love to answer your questions and help you find a date that feels just right for you. ❤️🤍💙

From our family to yours, stay warm this weekend. While we’re bundled up and watching the snow fall, our hearts are already looking ahead to spring, when the days are longer, the air is softer, and we get to meet our sweetest little reason for it all. 🤍🌈✨

Happy New Years, friends! ✨

This is a heavy post, but I wanted to share a gentle reminder about my annual winter break and why it looks a little different this year.

I’m typically closed from Christmas Eve through the first week of the new year. This year, I’ve extended that time and will not be returning until next Tuesday, January 12.

This week marks what would have been my daughter Sugar’s due date. 🎀😭

Grief has a way of resurfacing in waves, especially around milestones like this. I’m taking this time to honor her, to sit with what should have been her birthday, and to allow myself the space to process a loss that still runs deep. This pause is necessary so that when I return, I can show up fully and with the care and presence my clients deserve.

I’ll be back in the studio next Tuesday, and all communication will be responded to by the end of that week.

🩷A quick reminder on communication with LSP🩷
The studio phone is reserved for new inquiries, consultation calls, and time sensitive communication related to upcoming appointments - unless otherwise initiated by me.

Email is always the best and quickest way to reach me. It allows me to keep all communication in one place, supports how my ADHD brain works best, and helps me maintain a healthy boundary between work and home. I put this into place over a decade ago, so please dont take it personal.

For pending orders: Any designs that were approved during my break will be acknowledged and ordered once I return to the studio.

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and kindness. It truly means more than I can say.

And in case no one has reminded you today, God is always good. I’ll never claim to understand why this happened, but I can tell you it changed me for the better…somehow. He knows what He’s doing and there’s unexplainable peace in surrendering it all to Him. 🤍
