If I have a 1 hour photo shoot scheduled and it rains . . . we reschedule. So what do you do when it's a dreary, rainy day on someone's wedding day? You have fun with UMBRELLAS!!!
We had a great time with Jason and Jess and their entire wedding party! _____________________________________________________________
The bride, looking beautiful!

August in Wisconsin is an incredible month for a wedding. Combine that beautiful weather and sunshine with a stunning bride, fairy tale dress, an adorable little boy, and nicest people you can image. . . that was the Wigg Wedding! What an honor to photograph their day - Thank you to Charlie and Christine (and your entire wedding party, family and friends), you were all such a joy!
Here is a sneak peak of the day!

Summers in Wisconsin are close to perfect.The sun rises early bringing warm temperatures without humidity and the evenings bring a breeze off the lake cooling down the day just when it’s needed. This perfect summer weather is also perfect for photography. . . which has made us very busy. This is my long, drawn out excuse for not blogging in a while. (please forgive me!)
We’ve had the opportunity to photography some pretty incredible weddings. And, I’m very far behind on blogging, so I’... Continue reading ...

I was excited when Julie, someone I've known since our days of high school soccer practice, started asking questions about my offerings for wedding photography. Her and Matt had a destination wedding, but were planning a small reception after they got back home. We decided to meet at the Port Washington Marina, a place we worked together for years, and also to the bluff to take photos - Port Washington is beautiful even on a foggy, not so summer like day!
Julie looked beautiful of course!  ... Continue reading ...

Many brides (and grooms) that I meet with have so many questions, and are sometimes even a bit nervous about making a decision on a wedding photographer. I thought I’d do my best to offer up some advice on finding the best wedding photographer for you!
(And NO, I am not the perfect wedding photographer for everyone!)  DO SOME RESEARCHIn the digital age, you should be able to do some quick research online. A photographer who is an expert in digital photography should be able to have at least...

A few weeks ago Billy and I got to spend an evening with Billy's childhood friend Ryan and his family. I met Billy and Ryan at the same time during my freshman year of college - they attended a junior college together during their first year of school but they drove down to UW-Milwaukee on Thursday nights to attend Milwaukee's Campus Crusade for Christ. This is where I met all of the "Mayville Boys". After that first year of school together, Billy transfered to UW-Milwaukee to start his de... Continue reading ...

With a little bit of a crazy schedule these past 4 months (grad school, full time work, and a photo business) there has been almost no opportunities where I took photos just for me. Looking back at the last few months, every time I clicked the shutter, it was for a client. . . until last week.
A very special friend of mine plays high school basketball. As soon as my semester was finished I looked up her schedule and headed over to the high school gym. I had fun going back to a high school ... Continue reading ...

When Jenny said they were getting married early in December I thought 'hmmm this may be challenging for photography." We arranged to do the outdoor photos at The American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin. The brick buildings and fabulous landscaping made for great backdrops during this time in-between fall leaves and winter white. The best part is that there is a heated area near the gardens that allowed up to warm up in-between shots! (thank goodness because we were cold!)My favorite photo from ... Continue reading ...
