You never know what kind of weather to expect in March around here. But, Ben and Ella’s day dawned sunny and beautiful. Ben and Ella met at their local county fair. Their appreciation for animals and farming was a common ground. After getting to know each other throughout high school, they were committed and began […]

Ben and Ella’s March Wedding in La Crescent, Minnesota

Cameron brought his A-game when it came to senior photos! He sent some inspiration photos ahead of time and I think we absolutely nailed it. Here are a few of my favorites!

Cameron’s Boscobel, Wisconsin Senior Photos. Go Bulldogs!

Turner and Erica had such a beautiful October wedding day. I am in love with the wedding colors these two chose. The blush against black was so elegant, classic, and timeless. They chose Celebrations on the River as their venue for the same reason. Everything about Celebrations was just right for their day. And their […]

Turner and Erica’s Wedding at Celebrations on the River in La Crosse Wisconsin

Words cannot describe how excited I am for Tim and Lynnae’s wedding next summer. I was already in love with Lynnae’s vision after meeting her for coffee and chatting all about her wedding day plans. Now that I’ve seen the two of them together, my heart is overflowing. These two are so fun and laidback […]

Tim and Lynnae’s Wisconsin Engagement Session on Farm

Shawn and Lindsey had originally planned an intimate backyard wedding at their home in Richland Center, with a reception in Tomah to follow. It seems Wisconsin October weather had other plans though. I was amazed how smoothly everything transitioned to Cranberry Lodge in Tomah. The staff there was so kind, attentive and paid attention to […]

Shawn and Lindsey’s October Wedding in Tomah Wisconsin

Jadyn wanted their session to feel like them. She went with denim and matching black t-shirts because it just reflected their style. They love to be outdoors – hunting, camping, fishing. Jadyn and Jacob packed a picnic to incorporate as well which I loved.

Jacob and Jadyn’s Mississippi River Engagement Session

From a sparkling gown to sparkly shoes, Kelsy was GLOWING. Her dress from the Bridal Boutique in Platteville was perfect. And Chase cleaned up pretty nice too – from hunting and fishing to a navy tie and suit. He and Kelsy make a great team.

Chase and Kelsy’s Fall Wisconsin Wedding

What makes the best photo location? I think this will vary depending on your photographer. Take the same couple, same location, same time of day, but change the photographer? Your photos will be completely different! One of my favorite backgrounds for photos is so simple. A big open grassy field, and a gravel road. I […]

Shawn and Lindsey’s Wisconsin Fall Engagement Pictures

Damian and Leigh’s engagement session was absolutely perfect. We had the perfect summer evening. A soft breeze caught the natural wild grasses and flowers in La Crosse’s Blufflands just enough. The evening sun peeked through the tall pine trees. The clouds put on a show towards the end of our time. Leigh’s bow, nails, and […]

Damian and Leigh’s Engagement Session in the Wisconsin Blufflands

Molly and Cory. A sweet mixture of intimacy and sarcasm. Fun and love. High School sweethearts. I could tell just from that hour of hanging out together that these two are ready. They know each other so well. They’ve grown into adults together. And complete each other. They started dating when they were 15, Evan […]
