A blog of our current photography work.

Tracy and Mike

October is always a super busy month for us and for good reason. It's a really beautiful time of the year! Tracy and Mike's wedding happened to be on the nicest day this past October as it was 72 degrees and sunny which was especially nice because the chose to have an outdoor ceremony. Their venue of choice was the amazing Farm at Dover which is in southern Wisconsin. There was so much charm packed into this place that I knew wherever I turned I could make amazing photos. Tracy and Mike were such an awesome couple to work for and I had so much fun capturing their day!  

Alyssa and Adam

We have always had good intentions to keep our blog updated and showcase all the beautiful weddings that we photograph but between wrangling our three awesome boys, all the (MANY) photo shoots this past year, and the work we've done with animal rescue our blog has been neglected.  Over the next couple of weeks we are going to be posting a few of the weddings we photographed this past year and, hopefully, this coming wedding season we will be able to keep things updated a little better!  

Today's post is going to showcase some of our favorite photos from Alyssa and Adam's wedding at Emerson Creek Pottery and Tea Room in Oswego, IL. We love getting some fresh air and photographing weddings that are out in the country.  Emerson Creek is one of our favorite places to shoot as it has a cute bridal coop for getting ready shots, the tented reception area that backs up to a converted shed that's perfect for cocktails, and all the beautiful scenery to take portraits in front of. But more importantly we wanted to share this wedding because Alyssa and Adam are so in love with each other and it was such a joy to photograph their sunny September outdoor ceremony.

Emily and Eric's Wedding

Emily and Eric had the sweetest outdoor wedding at the Lighthouse Lodge in Indiana this summer.  We were thrilled to have been a part of it, and not ONLY because they had the world's cutest and sweetest French Bulldog, but because they were a genuine fun-time to be around!! Take a look at their amazing day, and feel free to gawk at all the gorgeousness and well-thought-out details!!

But really, though, that puppy!!

Keith and Madelene's Wedding

Keith and Madelene had such a sweet and intimate wedding fete on April 1st, and we just loved being a part of their laid-back celebration! They had a beautiful ceremony followed by a pie reception and dinner at The Girl and the Goat - if you haven't had the opportunity to eat there, we 10/10 recommend.

Every detail of their day was carefully crafted.  We love how much though was put into every moment.

Thank you, Keith and Madelene, for allowing us to be present.
