Nathan + Brianne + baby Sawyer...

Last Wednesday Derrick, Koeplin & I visited our friends Nathan & Brianne.
Derrick has known Nathan since his days in the dorms when he lived next to Nathan and his identical twin brother, Brandon. (who's wedding we get to cover this coming May) Derrick also met Brianne around that same time, as she was Nathan's high school sweetheart. When I started dating Derrick a few years later I was lucky enough to gain these two as my friends as well. Nathan also happens to be our very talented web designer. (watch in the months to come as he comes up with our new design...no pressure Nathan!)

Wednesday provided a much needed day of relaxation at Nathan's parents lake house. It was refreshing to spend the day with our friends, and escape from email and all the technologies that can interfere with life, even if only for an afternoon. Koeplin also had a great time playing in the lake, and on the pontoon. While we were there we also decided to get some maternity shots of Nathan and Brianne, who were due in about a month. Derrick & I stressed to Nathan & Brianne that their lives would soon be drastically changing. (though of course for the good) we explained to them that they should spend the next month prior to the baby coming as a couple going to the movies and out to dinner.
Little did we know on Wednesday that their lives would drastically change only 4 days later.
Luckily, we didn't put off doing these pictures any later. Nathan & Brianne chose to be surprised with the sex of their baby, so we couldn't wait to hear what they were having.

We were both so happy to hear that Nathan & Brianne had a baby boy, Sawyer. We wish the three nothing but the best, and can't wait to see & of course take some pictures of their new little guy! We hope you guys are able to get some sleep in the months to come.

Below are just a few of their pictures...

Cyndi & Rich are Engaged!

Cyndi & Rich met at a Halloween Party, though that has little to do with why their deciding to get married in October (Cyndi just likes fall colors, and I don't think Rich will complain about not having to wear a tux on a hot and humid summer day). With their wedding only a few weeks away these two were cool as can be, just enjoying one anothers company as we walked through library mall & the Union. Below are some previews from their shoot.






Karla & Dan are Engaged!

We met Karla & Dan in January at the Wedding Planner & Guide show, and since then have had a chance to sit down with them and discuss their wedding at an initial consultation & now had a chance to reconnect with them again at their engagement session. We had a great time walking around downtown with these two love birds, who are truly a perfect match! We are looking forward to their big day next July at the Masonic Center where we will be documenting it with both photography & HD videography.





Stephanie & Dave are Engaged!

Even though Stephanie & Dave lived only blocks away while getting their undergrads at the UW they didn't meet until Stephanie moved away to pursue her masters in the Cities while Dave continued to receive his degrees from the UW. Now together, living in Chicago, they are planning an October wedding In the Wisconsin Dells with the ceremony to take place in a church in Plain where 4 generations of Stephanie's family have said "I DO." With both Stephanie and Dave having a competitive rowing background, we did part of their shoot down by the water near the Union. Below are some previews of their proofs!

Megan+Joe=Baby Jack

Being photographers at one of the most important & intimate days of ones life lends itself to building lasting relationships with those we work with. (from the couple themselves to their friends & family) So we always love to reconnect with past clients or in a lot of cases friends and hear what they have been up to.

Last July we were lucky enough to work with Megan & Joe. Who are an all around great couple! With that being said we were so pleased to receive an email from Megan a few weeks back asking if we would do a 3 month family session with their new addition, baby Jack. Being fairly new parents ourselves, I bask at the opportunity to see a baby. (they are all so cute!) Baby Jack is no exception, it's quite apparent that he has stolen his parents heart. We had a great time getting some great shots documenting Megan & Joe's love for one another and of course their love for baby Jack.

Megan & Joe last July...


Meet baby Jack..






Such cute little feet!

9.13.08 Cassie & Josh are Married!

As a photographer, there are certain images that stick in your mind long after the pictures have left your camera or even our desktop computer. Cassie & Josh's wine and picnic themed engagement shoot we did last fall was one of those. I don't know if it was even the shoot so much (even though we are really proud of their images) or just the fun time we had visiting with them for the duration of the session. Regardless of the reason we've been looking forward to their wedding ever since. We got to cover their day together last weekend. Their Wedding took place in Janesville, and it was a day really characterized by the fun that the two of them, their friends, and family were willing to have in celebration of this event. And even though the forecast called for an all day rain, after the AM showers recessed, there wasn't much interruption weather wise. It was really crazy to see so many of our current and past clients in attendance. We don't always get to stay in touch with everyone once things wrap up with their wedding imagery, so it's amazing to find so many of the couples we've worked with now starting families and to catch up on where life has taken them. Cassie & Josh really had a perfect day (deservingly so), and we had so much fun covering it. Thanks again guys for choosing us! Below are some previews of their proofs.



Love the smile on Cassie's face as the girls get her dress "gracefully" over her head!

Truely a team effort!


AYKM! Could Cassie be a more gorgeous bride!

Jessica & Josh are engaged!

When you know you know... Jessica & Josh haven't wasted much time trying to figure out if their right for one another. They just know. And even though they may not have been together as long as a lot of our couples are once we have the opportunity to work with them, the connection is apparent. We met up in down town Middleton for their engagement shoot. We had a lot of fun with the session, and Josh's art direction made it just that much more personalized (inside joke). We look forward to working with the two of them again this November. Below are some previews from their session.
