Lily Shea Photography

Lily Shea has collaborated with numerous artists, venues, businesses, nonprofits, and other local clients, all with a shared mission: to bring vision to life. Her vibrant portfolio encompasses live music, street art, and small business content, and event capture.

Her diverse work has been featured in various online and print publications such as Shepherd Express, 88nine Radio Milwaukee, Edible Milwaukee, Uncut Magazine, and Breaking & Entering. Additionally, her street photography has been showcased in several gallery exhibitions, including Third Ward Fall Gallery Night, Dream Lab Gallery, and the Museum of Wisconsin Art.

diving into the Milwaukee music scene in 2018, Lily attended multiple shows each night, eager to capture the energy and magic of the performances. Her enthusiasm and dedication made her a sought-after collaborator with local artists like Kainalu, Vincent Van Great, LONG MAMA, Shle Berry, and many emerging talents.

Beyond live music, Lily creates captivating web content for local businesses, including the Milwaukee Athletic Club, S.A. Braai Chutney, La Pina, and Hear Here Presents. Her keen eye for detail and passion for visuals help effectively represent and market each establishment's unique essence to its audience.

Lily is also a proud long-time collaborator with nonprofits such as the ACLU of Wisconsin and Pearls For Teen Girls, valuing their community-enhancing efforts in Milwaukee and beyond.

In recent years, Lily has shifted her focus to studio photography, now offering headshots and creative portraits at her studio, House of Rad, located in the Riverwest neighborhood. She excels at making clients feel comfortable throughout the entire process, from the initial booking to the final delivery.

If you have a cause that deserves to be highlighted, an event that needs capturing, or a passion that should be shared, Lily will be right there by your side, camera ready.
