09.07.24. It was a beautiful day to get married. Mason and Ashlea’s wedding was filled with laughter and emotion. They put so much thought into the little details of their day, but when it came down to it, truly, they were just excited to get married. To be Mr. and Mrs. and forever committed. With […]

Mason and Ashlea’s Fall Wedding at Celebrations on the River

Tim and Lynnae put so much thought into the little details, making the day a perfect representation of their story. The cowtag table numbers. The custom hats and can-coozies. The cowgirl boots, sparkly dress, flowy sleeves. Their venue, The Barn on Heron Hill, was just right also. A barn, of course. But with twinkly lights, a white gazebo, perfect Victorian style house for getting ready in.

Tim and Lynnae’s Wedding at The Barn on Heron Hill

What a beautiful day. It’s been a rainy spring, but these two had the perfect June wedding. Sunny skies, slight breeze, and an abundance of love and joy. It was such an honor to capture Cole and Treena’s wedding day memories. I absolutely loved getting to know them both during the planning process too. From coffee dates to engagement photos, and late night phone calls.

Cole and Treena’s Wedding at Memories on Maple

I think it is so sweet how things have come full circle. They met as a groomsman and bridesmaid in a wedding a few years ago. It must have been love at first sight because they hit it off at the wedding and haven’t stopped thinking about each other since. Now, in just a few short months they will stand up together again. But this time as Husband and Wife.

Turner and Erica’s Second Nature at Readscreek Engagement Session

Damian and Leigh had the outdoor ceremony by the river that they’d been dreaming of. And the water droplets only added to the romance of the day. After the ceremony, we did some fun photos with the wedding party and clear umbrellas. And of course, some of the new Mr. and Mrs. Jilk!

Jordan and Madison’s wedding was one in a million. They were both so laidback, ready for fun, and organized. Everything just flowed so smoothly. I loved the intentionality and thought these two put into their day. Their ceremony was beautiful. One of Madison’s lifelong friends, Owen, was officiating. As a friend, he was able to […]

Jordan and Madison’s May Wedding at Celebrations on the River

We couldn’t have timed this session better to get beautiful spring blossoms for Cole and Treena’s engagement photos. We started near Boscobel, Wisconsin and ended at Treena’s Grandma’s farm. Her Grandpa chauffeured us around when the light was starting to slip away a little too quickly. Springtime this year has been full of rainy nights and muddy days. But, our evening together was beautiful. Not too hot, not too cold, a slight breeze whispering through the apple blossoms. Sunshine peeking through the branches. And God painted his artwork on the evening sky for some sweet sunset photos in the hayfield.

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

Talk about magic. Mason and Ashlea absolutely rocked their engagement session. It started out cloudy, but just in time for golden hour the sun came out. And boy did the sky decide to show off then. It was a little chilly. A little windy. The trees were still greener than we expected. But I don’t […]
