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 […]

Mason and Ashlea’s Engagement Photos in La Crosse 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 […]

Cory and Molly’s Engagement Photos by the Mississippi River in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin

What a beautiful wedding to end my 2023 Spring/Summer Wedding season. I’ve known Jedidiah and Emily since they were young and so seeing them fall in love, and getting to capture it on camera was so special. These two have been so intentional throughout their romance. Prioritizing spending time together. Praying together. Choosing to honor […]

Jedidiah and Emily’s July Wedding at Gatherings on the Ridge, Wisconsin

These two wanted their wedding weekend to be filled with fun for everyone. And a roadtrip to the Wisconsin Peninsula was the perfect way to start it out. They started their weekend with a fishing charter trip onto the lake with their officiant and friends and family. They not only got to watch the sun rise, but also had great luck with their catch. Nathan and Bri’s family made sure I got to have a great weekend also.
