Suzanne & Steve | MARRIED! | Lake Geneva Wedding & Portrait Photographer

happy weekend!

today I have the full post for Steve & Suzanne's big day!

and what a day it was!

it was so awesome to spend some time with these two and their awesome families.

it was also neat to be part of a small quaint wedding :)

its always nice to have a small gathering of people to watch two people that they love say their vows and become man and wife.

these two were full of energy the whole day!

Steve kept telling me how lucky he was to have such a beautiful bride!

and he was so right! 

this was my first time meeting Steve and Suzanne...I am always a little nervous about meeting a couple for the first time, whether its on their wedding day or at the initial meeting. but, I had no reason to worry about these two! they were calm, cool and collected. they were both all smiles...allllll day long :D 

I love it when a couple just rolls with whatever the day brings...it makes my job so much easier when they concentrate on being Mr & Mrs :)

not only do they love each other, but also country, 80's rock and christian music, NASCAR, and chocolate! ahhh....I love it when clients love chocolate :) that normally means that there will be chocolate at some point in the night :D 

and yes, there was chocolate :D

m&m's

hehe! even better!

these two love being together as well...they even work for the same company! 

I would certainly describe them both as being funny, bubbly, and bursting with energy for a good time!

Suzanne & Steve | SNEAK PEAK! | Married | Lake Geneva, WI Wedding & Portrait Photographer

today I have for you a sneak peak of the Lake Geneva wedding that Kim & I shot this past weekend!

it was a small and quaint wedding with lots of family

I didn't realize that Lake Geneva was such a tourist attraction though! 

guess that goes to show you where I spent my summers ;)

not in Lake Geneva apparently

despite the heat an humidity that has been plaguing WI lately, Suzanne and Steve were all smiles :)

 I love the light in the photo above :D

 stop back soon for the full blog post!! :)

Jeris | SFHS Senior 2012 | Sheboygan Senior Portrait Photographer

gooood morning everyone!

before I head off to today's wedding I have Jeris, who is a senior this year at SFHS on the blog! 

when Jeris contacted me about taking her senior photos I was SUPER excited.

mainly because I knew she would want to incorporate her horse, Boda, into the shoot :D

I love animals, but horses will always be on the top of that list :D

so last weekend I got to spend a couple [very warm] hours with Jeris

horses, boots, country music, FFA, and a favorite pair of worn out jeans are a few of Jeris' favorite things.

I'm pretty sure we covered them all here!

 nose kisses :)

 love it...prom dress and cowboy boots :)

 I LOVE the two pictures above...it was so much fun having Jeris ride around in her prom dress!

 another favorite :)

 love her eyes!

thanks for the fun afternoon Jeris!! I had a blast capturing your senior photos!!

the "H" family | Portraits | Sheboygan Portrait & Wedding Photographer

with all of the hustle and bustle of the days, weeks, and months it is so easy to forget how much fun a morning running around the beach with a 5- and 3-year-old can be

these two girls have SO. MUCH. ENERGY.

and laughs.

and smiles.

and cute-photo-faces.

its nice to set aside the hustle and bustle of the day and live vicariously through the eyes of a child.

oh to be 5 again :)

no formal photos, no turn-and-smile, no work and only play

just splashing around,

jumping around,

crawling, 

and making silly faces.

enjoy :)

 a morning bike ride with grandpa before heading down to the lake

 smiles and pirate faces ;)

 dancing down the beach

 sister secrets are the best

 I bet I can splash you!

 favorite!!
