Behind the Lens
ABOUT US
We're hopeless romantics who find great joy in documenting connection and beauty wherever we go.
Hopeless romantics (and hallmark movie fans), lovers of lake life, weekend getaways, and the soft beautiful colors that are brought to life in photos.
Hi, hello! We're Danielle & Troy Helgeson. Fine Art Photographers who document personal, genuine, and artistic photos and homeschool parents to one silly little boy named Cole. We spend our leisure time on the Great Lakes, usually in Door County or Grand Marais, playing in the sand, hiking, or sailing. We're always on a treasure hunt or strolling through historic towns. Known to stop at farm stands searching for the best cherry salsa or to add a new hot sauce to our collection. We're so excited you're here, and we can't wait to meet you.
