Your wedding day will be filled with moments—the quiet inhale before walking down the aisle, the uncontrollable laughter during toasts, the way your partner looks at you when they think no one’s watching. At Boxcar Photography, we’re here to capture all of it. Based in La Crosse, WI, we’re a photo and video team creating emotional, artistic wedding imagery for couples who value real, story-driven memories.
If you’re searching for a La Crosse wedding photographer who feels like both a guide and a friend, you’re in the right place.
Emotional, Story-Driven Photography & Videography
We believe that the best photos don’t just show what your day looked like—they remind you how it felt. Our approach is rooted in documentary-style storytelling: candid, honest, and artfully composed. We’re there for the unscripted laughter, the spontaneous hugs, the quiet moments you didn’t know we caught.
We blend gentle direction with space to be yourselves. Whether you’re camera-shy or fully in your element, our priority is helping you feel present and comfortable so your images reflect your true connection.
With video, we bring those moments to life—your vows, your voices, the cheers of your people. We offer combined photo and video coverage with a unified team who works seamlessly to tell your full story.

Deep Roots in La Crosse & the Driftless Region
La Crosse is home for us. We know the Driftless Region’s quiet valleys, golden bluffs, riverside parks, and the exact ridge that lights up best at golden hour. Whether you’re planning a wedding at the top of Grandad Bluff, the Cargill Room, or a rustic farm out in the Coulee, we bring local knowledge that makes your experience smoother and more inspired.
We’ve worked at nearly every venue in the region and know where to go for those off-the-beaten-path portraits. If you’re looking for a little location guidance, we’ve put together a guide to La Crosse wedding venues →.
More Than a Vendor—We’re Your Wedding Partners
From the first email to the final gallery delivery, we’re with you every step of the way. We help with:
- Timeline planning
- Portrait scheduling (including first look advice)
- Creating your family shot list
- Handling lighting, weather, and backup plans
We bring calm, flexibility, and encouragement to every part of the process. On the day itself, we’ll pin boutonnieres, help you breathe, carry your train up a bluff, and make space for emotion. When the schedule shifts (as it always does), we adapt.

Photo + Video = Your Full Story
You don’t need to hire a separate videographer. With Boxcar, you get a cohesive team who already knows how to move together, cover every angle, and deliver a gallery + highlight film that match in tone and emotion. We collaborate in the background so you can stay immersed in the moment.
A wedding film allows you to hear your vows again, feel your partner’s voice tremble, and watch the joy unfold in motion. It’s a keepsake we believe every couple deserves.

Our mission is simple: to capture those “wow” moments that forge a deeper connection and serve as daily reminders of your love. We strive to create images that make you say, “Wow, I love my partner,” every time you see them. We’re committed to working with couples who are as dedicated to their love story as we are to telling it.
