Memory making & experiences above all else

THE NEWEST ADDITION TO THE VAN ABEL + HARTJES CLAN Wilfred Randolph was born on 2/12 and it was such a blessed day! We got a phone call around noon that day, saying that Maggie was at the hospital and their little one would be arriving that day. It was the best phone call ever and […]

TRENDY WINTER WEDDING at ST. JOHN’S + FRATELLOS, DOWNTOWN APPLETON If Lucy had it her way, every day would be her wedding day, and she would marry Derek over and over and over again. For obvious reasons, there’s a lot of hype around wedding days. The planning and the pinning, the decorations and the honeymoon […]

WINTER ANNIVERSARY SESSION at HECKRODT WETLAND RESERVE Josh + Jenny were married last year right around this time. They were wed in a winter wonderland, and wanted to celebrate one year of wedded bliss with an awesome anniversary session (after a visit to Door County and a sleigh ride, of course! So fun!) We laughed and […]

This was one of those “I’m laughing so hard my face hurts” kind of engagement sessions (and no, not because of the temperature!) It might have something to do with the fact that they are some of the most fun people I know, that they are some of my favorite friends ever, that they are […]

I couldn’t imagine ending the 2015 wedding season any other way. John and Lindsay’s winter wedding day included all of the wonderful things that are so great great about the season: a log cabin, pine, red berries, twinkling lights, stone fire places, a giant Christmas tree, fur wraps, and making amazing memories with family and […]

This Christmas Tree Farm engagement session makes me so happy for so many reasons. Firstly, I was able to meet Jon and Jess for the first time and they were just as sweet and amazing as I hoped! After talking with Jess the last couple of months, it didn’t seem too possible that I was […]

Luke and Danielle will forever be two of my favorite people to photograph! You may remember their gorgeous boho wedding from a couple years back, and it is STILL talked about by current brides and clients! What a perfect day that was!! Well, fast forward a little bit, and they have made a move from California […]

John and Jenny are the kind of people who greet you with hugs when you arrive and great thanks and appreciation when you leave. They are easily liked and adored, and it is no secret that these two found their match. It’s rare that we don’t meet with the couple before their wedding day (usually […]
