WELCOME

My name is Joe Hillary and Mendel House is my photography business.

Here I am with the 4 people I'm blessed to call my family.  Debbie and I have been married for 9 years and our three children are ages 7, 5, and almost 2.  Debbie is a skilled wedding professional in her own right, crafting beautiful floral arrangements under the name Busy Bee Floral Design.  We currently live south of Madison in the beautiful rolling hills of Wisconsin.  I shoot locally and am also willing to travel.  

Family is paramount to me and I consider it an honor when any couple trusts me to be the photographer on the day they say "I do".  My goal with Mendel House is to provide every couple with a collection of photos that delight them and their family for generations.  

Please have a look around my website and if you like what you see and are interested in working with me, I would love for you to reach out via my contact page.

Thank you for visiting!  


I am proud to say that Busy Bee Floral Design is the work of my lovely wife, Debbie. Talented and passionate, she knows flowers and wants to bring blooming beauty into your wedding day.
