We had our daughter, Taylor's senior pictures taken with Abbie and had a wonderful experience. Everything was exceptional, from the consultation, to the photo shoot at Grant Park, to the sneak peak and the final picture reveal. Abbie is very welcoming and has a great eye to find the perfect spot to stop and take a picture. We had so much fun at the photo shoot and had so many wonderful pictures it was decide what to select. She put together a beautiful album for us so we have them all captured in a personalize book. If you are looking for a photographer, you can stop now and give Abbie a call. She will definitely take care of you! More...

Terrific experience, from start to finish (although Abbie will be assisting me again with graduation announcements). Abbie took my son's senior photos, did a wonderful job of capturing "him" and "his story," engaged with both of us in a timely, professional and friendly manner and produced photos that we will cherish forever. My son and I had trouble deciding which images we loved the most! More...

I recently had my professional headshot taken by Abbie from Stories Framed Photography. I am very happy with the results. The session was fun ! I was very comfortable with the whole process. Abbie had great photo tips to use both in the session and in general. It's been many years since I've had a professional headshot. I was thrilled to update my professional image with her work!

I needed a couple of headshots for my author Web site and publicity opportunities. Abbie was fantastic. After taking a few minutes to get to know me and my "style," she quickly came up with ideas and created great images. It was exactly what I needed, and frankly, it was fun. More...

There's a reason that Stories Framed Photography was voted the number one choice in Milwaukee! I recently worked with Abbie Miller for my business branding session and can't say enough about her talents. Not only were the final photographs phenomenal, a nod to her expertise, but Abbie has a wonderful way of creating a relaxed, casual atmosphere where you somehow forget that she's taking your picture ... making the experience itself enjoyable. I would HIGHLY recommend Stories Framed Photography! More...

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Abbie on my professional head shots! I appreciated that she asked ahead of time where I would likely use the photos and took that into consideration for the shoot. The shoot itself was so fun, and I think she got some of my favorite photos of myself that really show my personality! More...

Who likes getting their photo taken? Not me!!! As perhaps the least photogenic person on the planet, I knew Abbie had her work cut out for her! At 9 a.m. on a Saturday morning, Abbie kindly (and with a great sense of humor) guided me through the process of getting new professional headshots done. She knows every trick to lighting and framing you in a flattering way that also somehow shows off your personality. Her communications prior to the shoot were clear, specific, and set the mood of the day with her trademark humor. Abbie turned the work around very quickly and by Tuesday morning I had a brand new LinkedIn profile shot that A) I actually liked and B) didn’t leave me catfishing potential business contacts. Abbie rocks—I cant recommend her highly enough! More...

My son missed his nap the day of his one year old photo session and he was a bit of a terror and not his normal, happy self. Abbie was fantastic with him despite his unusual moodiness and even though he did not want to "pose" or smile like normal she was able to capture some really amazing photos while he fought me throughout the photo shoot. We picked up our photos over the weekend and hung one of the larger prints in our living room. He points at the picture and laughs now when he sees it. Thank you Abbie for making this such a wonderful experience and capturing such beautiful images for our family! More...

I have nothing but great things to say about Stories Framed Photography and of Abbie Miller! Upon arriving, she sat down with me and explained why she is passionate about her business and the journey she took that landed her to start her own business. She then asked questions about me and why I was looking to get my photo taken and I explained to her that it was for social media purposes. I am by no means a photogenic person but Abbie made me so comfortable and had me laughing the entire time! We then reviewed the photos I liked and we narrowed them down together until I finally made a decision. I received the photo within a few days and it looked amazing! I would recommend Abbie for all photography! More...

Abbie was fantastic!! She accommodated our schedule and our cranky 1yr old! Somehow she managed to get exquisite pictures when we thought they were turning out horrible. She also let us including our fur child since she's part of our family too and our son adores her! It was a very relaxed atmosphere and she was clever with being able to grab our toddlers attention and came up with some great ideas that we hadn't thought of. You can really see the story in our photos of our time spent with her in her studio trying to remember this time in our little one's life and she made it effortless! I definitely recommend Abbie for any family shoots and/or special occasions! If you want dynamic pictures, you NEED a story teller! They are so much better than standard shoots where you pose. More freeing and relaxed without being posed by a photographer. More...

In the 21 years since my daughter was born, we've never had a family portrait taken. We are just not portrait people for a few different reasons, but this year my 70 year old mother said that what she wanted more than anything for Christmas was a family portrait of me, my husband and daughter.

I have worked with quite a few photographers over the years, but Abbie has got to be the warmest and friendliest! She made the entire senior photo shoot feel comfortable and fun. She was flexible, patient, and committed to giving us beautiful pictures. She is also great with communication. She's a true professional with an artist's eye, but she also understands parents and kids and what we are looking for in photos. I highly recommend her. More...

My son was apprehensive of the senior picture process. He was pleasantly surprised at how easy and laid back the whole process was. Abbie made it fun and enjoyable, all the while being professional. Abbie was highly recommended by a close friend and she did not steer me wrong!! Loved the studio reveal of the senior picture session-cozy seating. The way she told the story in the book with color and black & white photos and captured the beauty of the scenery and the subject was delightful. More...

My experience with Abbie was fantastic. I originally asked her to update my corporate head-shot, which was great, but saw some of her more innovative pictures which inspired my to ask her to do some pictures for my yoga teaching. While we we just playing around with my first visit, I did a goofy picture which became one of my highest liked posts in facebook. Creative, nice space, professional.

Not only did Abbie handle all 15 girls and their /loud/beautiful/wonderful/different personalities with ease, she made each girl feel special and important. Tween girls are going through so much at this age and to have the confidence in themselves that Abbie from Stories Framed was capturing...was just awesome. And she traveled in a snow storm.

Abbie advertised impromptu snow photography shoots which was my dream! My little ones in fresh fallen snow would be ideal and picturesque for Christmas cards. We kept the date casual with an eye on the weather when all of a sudden magic happened; Abbie was quick to respond and we scheduled. The day was festive and she captured us as a family beautifully. The only thing that made it even better was her eye for design; we've never gotten so many compliments on our cards before! More...

My daughter and I had the great opportunity to work with Abbie on a recent project. We did not know of her when the magazine doing the article sent us to her.
We were both a bit apprehensive - Would she understand the project? Could she capture the emotion of the project?
Abbie met us at the door with a welcoming smile and we were instantly put at ease. We shared a bit more about our story/project and much to our delight Abbie knew about the project as she had photographed it years ago. We took pictures inside her gorgeous and took some on site - Abbie made the whole process SO easy and SO enjoyable.
We recently saw the finished photos recently and they made me cry - they captured the essence of the project so beautifully! They tell the story of the project as well as any words ever could. I go back and look at the pictures often and in the blink of an eye I am taken back and flooded with emotion. I could not be more delighted!
Although we met each other as 'stranger's we left as friends. We are looking forward to booking time to take some LONG over due family pictures. I have no doubt Abbie will be a part of our 'family' for a long time to come!

Celebrating our Golden Wedding, we wanted photos including all 23 of us; 4 children and their families. 13 grandchildren aged 20 to 5. 5 yrs didn't rattle her at all. She had endless patience and a great sense of humor that allowed us to have not only all the group, but also each family had their own pictures. She even took a couple great "school photos" for 2 grandchildren. Abbie took her time, we didn't feel rushed either in the photo shoot or in making our choices. There was one "glitch" in an enlargement that was corrected in timely fashion AND with great success. She had met us at our site prior to our big day, so she knew her options and came prepared take quality pictures. We are very pleased More...
