Justine + Michael Married | Thorp, WI

It was so exciting to finally begin our 2013 wedding season! All of the planning and details that we discuss with our brides come to life!

Even though it was cold outside, there was warmth and love filled inside the church. The bright wedding colors also helped add that touch of warmth.

 Congratulations again to Justine and Michael! 

Mike + Em Rehearsal Dinner | Eau Claire, WI

It was a wonderful time at Houligans celebrating the soon to be Mr. and Mrs. McHorney. Em and Mike were surrounded by friends and family, all excitedly waiting for the big day. We played around with chalk boards and captured some great moments, as everyone near them congratulated them and participated in their joy.

Not many people think to capture the rehearsal dinner, too. But doing so, can give you a comprehensive picture of your entire wedding experience.

Congratulations, Em and Mike! Thank you for letting us join in on your wedding weekend!

Dani + Joe Married | Eau Claire, WI

It was so exciting to be part of Dani and Joe's special day and to capture all the little details. This couple grew up in my hometown so it was great to see many people from the area gather together to celebrate. Congrats Dani and Joe! 

The first look . . .

The colorful flowers popped nicely up against the bright dresses.

Dani and Joe's daughter, Brynnley is too cute for words.

 . . . and so are their nieces and nephews.

 Such spectacular scenery!

 And they're married!

Jerec + Ashley + Ava | Durand, WI

It is so nice when I get a chance to photograph people I grew up with. With this particular couple, I was a first-hand witness to their love story as they began dating in high school. Now, this sweet couple wanted to capture the newest part of their story, their dog Ava. Such a fun afternoon with familiar faces discovering some neat places in our hometown!
