Erin & Justin | Married | Green Bay Wedding Photographer

happy 4th of July weekend!!

I hope y'all are having a blast enjoying the gorgeous weather

today I have the rest of Erin & Justin's wedding to show you!

Erin & Justin had a beautiful day,

the weather, the people, the flowers, the food and the dancing

all was the perfect combination.

take a look at some of my favorites of the day!

it was so awesome to see all of Erin & Justin's closest friends gather for their wedding.

we started the day at Holy Cross Parish in Green Bay.

which has a GREAT view of the bay.

like. amazing.

it also has some amazing inside views.

I loooooove old churches.

and I love old churches that also have balconies that I can take pictures on. :D

after church we headed over to Justin's mom's house for some more photos

Justin's mom landscaped her whole backyard just for the ocassion!

it was amazing! 

then it was time for dinner and dancing :)

 gorgeous bouquets & rings

 erin's beautiful dress!

 

 

 this is something that I don't normally get to see because most churches make you stand behind certain lines/pillars/pews/etc. but we had free reign of this church! so I was able to witness this...

 looooove biiiiig churches!!

 husband and wife!

 this is part of Justin's mom's backyard...amazing!

 at the reception, Justin & Erin had a finger print tree instead of a traditional guest book! this is such a fun idea! everyone got to "leaf" their finger print and name!

 mmmmm....cake :)

 there was also a band! another thing that most weddings typically don't have. I loved this as well! always nice to have a real live band!

Erin & Justin, congratulations! And thank you so much for letting me be part of your day! I hope your Vegas honeymoon was a blast!

Alexa & Jeff | Engaged | West Bend Wedding & Portrait Photographer

happy Friday :D

and happy long weekend :D:D

today I have a sneak peak from Alexa & Jeff's engagement photo session from last weekend. 

these two are super adorable together and suuuupppeeer fun to hang out with.

I can't wait for their August wedding! 

it should be a rather fun time :)

plus, Jeff is in the Marines, so he will be decked out in his dress blues 

and his soon-to-be-wife will be decked out in her dress ;)

there is just something that I love about photographing weddings where the groom is all dressed up in his blues. I think it makes the day special-er 

haha...yes. special-er. my new made up word of the day

anyway,

take a look at their sneak peak! 

I can't wait to blog the rest of this shoot! so many fun photos!! :D

enjoy the long weekend everyone!!

this past weekend was SUPER busy.

but fabulous.

minus the rain.

I was able to take photos for the third year in a row at the annual Sheboygan County 4-H Horse & Pony's June Horse Show.

Saturday is the english day and Sunday is the western day.

unfortunately Sunday the weather decided to down pour in the morning while I was there...so I wasn't able to take as many photos as I would have liked to. 

but Saturday I got plenty of jumping photos! 

take a look at some of my favorities!!

congratulations to all of the winners in the classes!!

Rae & Justin | Engaged | Sheboygan Falls Lifestyle & Portrait Photographer

happy weekend!!

its a gorgeous June weekend this weekend,

well...maybe minus the morning rain :)  ,

and a busy one at that!

this weekend is the annual 4-H Horse & Pony Project's June Horse Show.

Saturday, after lunch Mike & I went out to Road America to watch some of the June Sprints,

some of our friends came be over for some yummy dinner and a bonfire, 

AND I had a fabulous new client meeting!

whew!

what a great weekend!! 

today though, 

I would like to introduce you to Rae & Justin

these two WON a free engagement session from me at the Lasting Impressions Bridal Fair at the Weil center this past January. 

which is kind of funny...because...well I have known Rae for a looooooooooooooong time.

yes. that many o's :) 

so I had to laugh when we picked her name out of all the people that entered.

she is a little older than my little sister...and we ALL rode horses and were in the same 4-H group together!

anyway, Rae & Justin are getting married next April. 

so once the weather FINALLY decided to be nice we were able to get together for their engagement session!

these two are adorable together,

they are full of laughter,

and love country music.

take a look!

they surprised me with the first location, although I should have put 2 and 2 together I thought we would be taking photos at the park that is behind the fire department in Sheboygan Falls....

BUT

we took photos AT the fire department in Falls!!

 Justin is a first responder and is on the Sheboygan Falls Fire Department.

and this is the actual engine that he rides/drives in when there is an emergency!

how stinkin' cool is that?!

 so he really wanted to incorporate that into their photos...

 love these photos!

 I also love it when a couple has things that they want to incorporate into their photos! 

it really makes the whole session more about them and who they are

 after taking the fire truck out, we headed over to Blue Harbor in Sheboygan for some photos by Lake Michigan.

 normally the lake can be kind of 'meh' in photos. you know...just kind of there...not really looking pretty or whatever. but, wow, the lake that day was gorgeous! certainly one perk to living near the lake is how pretty it can be!!

 this next photo is where Justin proposed to Rae...cue group 'awwwww' :)

as Rae told me 'Justin wanted to take a walk, which he never wants to do that, AND it was FREEZING cold out!' but the proposal was perfect and of course she said yes :)

 looooooove the sun in this next photo :D

 after that we headed to my favvvvvvvorite street in Sheboygan. the brick road. aaaahhh yes. I think I could shoot here alllll day long.

 plus the old buildings that are along the brick road...love them too

 next we stopped out at another location along Lake Michigan

 another favorite of mine :D

 and one last one along some abandoned railroad tracks in Shebogyan Falls!

Rae & Justin, it was a blast hanging out with you!! I had a great time capturing your laughs and smiles. I can't wait until your big day!
