9.12.09 Elan + Chris are Married!

Whenever a couple books the two of us to shoot their wedding it's exciting for a couple of different reasons.  One being that we know that we're going to get to shoot with one another on that day, and the other that we know they'll be getting the best coverage we can offer and more than likely end up with a larger than normal selection of proofs to go through in the end (and we already typically present far more finished proofs than most of our colleagues).

Elan and Chris came to us as a referral from Trisha and Andy (who also served as one of Chris's Groomsmen), and really couldn't of been a better fit for us.  Their personalities and style make them easy to work with.  And after shooting their Couples Session last year (it was probably one of favorite shoots of the season), we couldn't wait to get them in front of the camera again.  They put together an awesome wedding in Downtown Milwaukee, and after having shot primarily in Madison for the past month or so, it was a welcomed change of pace and backdrops.  (Minus the speeding ticket we got on the way in.  I swear I didn't see it change to 55 mph).  They had their reception at the Lake Front Brewery, which was rich in character of it's own, and a good time was had by all.

Elan and Chris, Thanks for letting us be a part of your day.  Below are some sneak peaks of your proofs.

Isla...

Isla & her Mom met us at our gallery, and unfortunately what started as a beautiful sunny day had quickly become overcast and rainy. We decided to deal with the weather and capture some shots of Isla "playing" around the area in downtown Middleton that surrounds our gallery.
Fortunately, Isla was extremely easy to work with...and we were able to capture some great shots in a limited amount of time.  If only all 14 month olds cooperated so well! We had a lot of fun playing with Isla and getting some shots of her in her adorable hats and colorful outfits!

Endres Family....

A few weeks back Derrick & I had the pleasure of shooting some 6 month photos of baby Isabella and also had a chance to grab a few shots of Isabella with her Mom & Dad & big brother Dylan. Isabella's Mom brought the most adorable hats for Izzy to wear at her shoot.

Here are a handful of their images....

9.5.09 Amber + TJ are Married!

When TJ set out to build a house he hired a father son building company who had been long time family friends.  At some point during the process, TJ’s status as a single man came up in conversation and Amber’s Father (the son in the father and son building combo) was showing TJ a picture of his daughter.  One extended first date later and the rest is pretty much history as Amber and TJ have been together ever since.  The house Amber’s Father and Grandfather  built has become as much her’s as TJ’s and that’s where our coverage began.  With TJ’s parent’s home conveniently neighboring theirs, it made it easy for the guys and girls to get ready in close proximity of one another with out crossing paths.  And with a great cocktail hour planned at their place, prior to the reception, it made it easy for them to oversee all the last minute details as everything came together flawlessly.  Amber and TJ had a fantastic wedding filled with great moments, good friends and lots of fun as these two made things official.  In the beginning TJ set out to build a house, but instead along the way he ended up meeting Amber and building a home.  Congratulations guys.  Here is a sneak peak of their photos.        

9.5.09 Amy + Peter are Married!

Amy & Peter were married at Quivey's Grove surrounded by their closest friends and family. Not only were the grounds of Quivey's a beautiful backdrop for the ceremony & reception...the details that Amy & her Mom put together along with the ladies at Personal Expressions were phenomenal. Every time I thought I had shot a majority of the details, I would see something new. The day went by very seamlessly with the help of some great vendors including Personal Expressions and Amy & Peter's wedding coordinator Angela Dupont from Top Shelf Events.  But more importantly then any of the details and events of the day, was the apparent love shared by both Amy & Peter, and the great time that their friends & family seemed to be having on their special day.

Congrats Amy & Peter, I wish you all the best! April

The details were endless at this wedding....
