Rob + Emily

Rob and Emily were married 8/14 at Wild Ridge in Eau Claire, WI. I have to say that I really, really love this wedding and am so happy to be able to capture it. Emily looked amazing and the flowers, program, table settings, food, staff, DJ etc all rocked!

Golf courses are always nice for wedding photos especially when you can zip around the ground on a cart in the heat of the day (Thanks Rob & Emily for letting me drive!) What’s unique to Wild Ridge is their Scottish course design meaning you have hills and praire mixed in to work with. As you can see everywhere we stopped had an amazing backdrop. Can’t wait until the next wedding I have here!

Nathan + Kate

Nathan and Kate we married 7/31 in Eau Claire, WI . The day started out at the ultra funky Sister’s Salon on Water Street and moved on to First Lutheran which is one of the best looking churches around the city and wrapped up and the County Club.

After the ceremony we hoped around to a few different locations for pics and one stop was Banbury Place. Ironically, there was a film crew in the back alley making a movie called, ”The Wedding”. We totally got into their blooper reels so watch for us!

This was one of those weddings where everything looked perfect and everything went perfectly right into the dance. This crowd really knew how to shake a leg, maybe the best dance crew yet! Thanks guys for having me be a part of it!!!

Andrew + Jenna

Andrew and Jenna are going to have an amazing wedding next June in La Crosse, WI – I’m pretty pumped to shoot it already ! I got to meet up with them last week for their engagement session and since it’s La Crosse, urban and parks setting are a winning combo.

When you’re downtown, dressy is the way to go but boy did we pay for it with the heat index. You’d never know by looking at Andrew and Jenna, what a wonderful match! Enjoy!

Colton + Wyatt

I got the honor to photography Colton and Wyatt last week. They are such sweet little boys!

These guys sure knew that something was up because even with the heat cranked up, being fed and having music on they still managed to squeek and squirm around….lol! With a little patience, I was able to capture some wonderful photos with help from mom and dad. Seeing the two all snuggled up together sleeping just makes you want to hold them all day long. Enjoy the sneak peek!

Ali

Ali is a fun, energetic senior from North High in Eau Claire, WI. Ali has been busy all summer long playing high school volleyball and she was definitely on top of her game for her session.

What can I say, the photos were nothing short of awesome! Ali is very natural when it comes to posing and she has those striking eyes that give each shot that “WOW” factor. Mom and sis tagged along and I think they must have been making faces at her or were laughing at me showing her what poses I wanted because each time Ali would look at them, she would crack a chuckle.

Here are some of my favorites!

Craig + Anna

Craig and Anna were married 7/17/10 in La Crosse, WI. They were married at First Lutheran Church and since this was my first visit, all I could think was what a beautiful venue – one of the best I’ve ever been to!

Better yet, First Lutheran has the best AC that I’ve been around. I can’t tell you how nice the cool air was because can you say HOT outside!!! I think it hit 98 degrees that afternoon downtown. No wonder why there was 100′s (no joke) of boats going back and forth along Riverfront Park.

Heat or not, the bridal party was awesome and rocked the day! I was thrilled to be part of such a wonderful event – Thanks Craig & Anna!!!
