Ashlea and Brad’s wedding day was literally picture perfect. I couldn’t make this a short post because there were just so many pretty pictures! These two have seriously good taste. So I’ll keep this part short so you can get right to the photos. Enjoy! Vendor Love! Venue: Sugarland Barn | Hair and Makeup: Jena at […]

When I first started out photographing weddings, I didn’t include an engagement session in any of my collections. But, as I photographed more and more of these fun engagement photos, I realized how important they really are (for more than just the selfish reason that I LOVE doing them). So of course now all but […]

When I meet with newly engaged couples who are starting the planning process, sometimes they come prepared with lists of questions, and sometimes, they have no idea what to ask! I’d say it’s a little more common that people aren’t sure what they should be asking when they meet me. So I thought I’d do […]

Get ready for just about the cutest blog post you’ve seen in a while. I photographed Kayleigh and Nick’s wedding at the O’Brien Barn last summer (see them here!) I saw them right after they got back from their honeymoon to deliver their photos, and they told me that they had just found out they were […]

Every once in a while, I’ll have a client ask me if they get all of the photos I take at their wedding or their photo session. My answer is always the same. Trust me when I say, you really do. not. want to see all of the photos I took of you. Here are […]

What is a first look?  The “first look” is basically when you see your beautiful/handsome wife/husband to be before you walk down the aisle. Why should I do a first look? 1. If you are having a later ceremony start time. Let’s say your ceremony is starting at 4pm. By the time the ceremony is […]

I still can’t believe how lucky Kelly and Dan were with their wedding day. We were watching the radar all day, and luckily, the beautiful Century Barn where they had their ceremony and reception was located right inbetween two giant storms. So we got sprinkled on a little bit, but besides that, we just had […]

I had so much fun with Erin and Ben on Friday! It was pretty chilly, but they were troopers and you can’t even tell. We started out at the Capitol for some fancy photos, and then headed out to the town of Dunn where Ben works for a picnic. They like to go here together […]

Kayleigh and Nick were the first couple to book me when I made the decision to move to Wisconsin. Coincidentally they have been one of my favorite couples ever, and now I’m a little bit sad that their wedding is over. Their big day was absolutely wonderful in every way and I’m so glad I […]

Sarah and Adam’s wedding day was literally picture perfect. It was my first time shooting a wedding in Milwaukee, and it was absolutely amazing. It kind of reminded me of being back in Chicago again. All of the decisions these two made about their big day were spot on. From the gorgeous flowers, to their […]
