Peter and Katelyn have a unique and exciting love story that involved some months apart while Katelyn was in Croatia. I loved hearing them tell their story. I also loved hearing their excitement for their wedding day coming up in December, makes me even more excited to capture it! (Also, I love how much they […]

Almost exactly a year ago I was second shooting Jaime + Alison’s gorgeous wedding day with Kelly Grace Photography.  It was a bit of an odd August day. It was a brisk, crisp day in the 60s. Not exactly what you would expect at the start of August. I woke up and immediately thought to myself […]

The Backstory *deep breaths*Where do I even start on this one? I think I’ll start by grabbing a box of kleenex. I remember, about four years ago, I met Emily. She was hanging out with a few friends and my brother, Brandt, after church one week. I had never seen her before, had no idea […]

One thing that could never be doubted when I was working with Taylor was that she was so excited and had so much anticipation for her wedding day. Which I know seems a little silly to say, a wedding day is something any bride and groom should be excited about. But Taylor just exuded her […]

A quick throwback to Matt + Lauren‘s engagement session in the beautiful Lake Geneva. Check out their gorgeous autumn wedding here!This session just makes me dream harder about warmer weather! It’s almost here you guys! (I say as there is snow on the ground outside, ugh!) I mean how cute are they??? Everything is better with […]

On this foggy autumn day, we started out our session on Luke’s grandparent’s property which ended up being the perfect setting for their pictures! It was later in the season and I wasn’t sure how many trees would still have leaves, but there were so many maples still hanging on to their gorgeous yellow leaves! […]

I was so excited for Frank + Madeline’s wedding day, I had heard so many exciting details, and man, did they do an amazing job putting their day together! There were so many little details that made things so special! I also had a first: my work on a chocolate bar! 🙂 To read more about […]

So today’s lovely January weather (a bit gloomy, but I wore a t-shirt outside and actually wasn’t cold!) reminded me of a session I did almost exactly a year ago. It was almost 60º out, in January! I’m pretty sure when Mike & Felicia scheduled their engagement session for January they didn’t think they were going to […]

It’s that time again!  Look back at at my favorite images from the year and give something back to a couple of lucky clients!  2017….what a ride!!! So much craziness! Did anyone else feel like it was never going to end? But also like it was going by incredibly fast at the same time? I […]

I mean, how gorgeous are these two??? These two decided to practice their first dance (that they choreographed together in their living room) before the reception started. It was so gorgeous seeing them glide around the dance floor to an empty room. First time I’ve had a full on cake smash! I. love. it. I […]
