{Mr. & Mrs. L} La Crosse Wisconsin Wedding Photographer

Wow, wow, wow!  What a beautiful wedding we had the privilege of photographing this summer!  M & J were such a sweet couple and really fun to work with!  Their gorgeous wedding ceremony took place at St. Patrick's Church in Onalaska, WI on a day filled with nothing but blue sky.  Her amazing dress was from Charlotte's Bridal in La Crosse, WI.  She added some extra sparkle with a sparkly pair of earrings and a matching bracelet.  Her beautiful bouquet was created by Cottage Garden Floral in La Crosse, WI.  And the bling - ah, stunning!  They got their rings from Kesslers Diamonds in Milwaukee, WI.  You can tell from her beaming smile as he spoke his vows to her that she was one happy bride!

The hair styling for the ladies was done by Sue Kolve's Salon in Onalaska, WI and they all looked gorgeous!  With tuxes also from Charlotte's Bridal, the whole wedding party was dressed to perfection.  Plus, the blue they included in their wedding colors photographed so well!  We spent some time between their ceremony and reception in La Crosse, near the river.  A good time was had by all and the party truly began!

They choose to have their reception at The Waterfront in La Crosse, WI.  They decorated with beautiful silver sticks and glass vases.  There were even some lovely little name plate charms on the bride and groom's champagne glasses.  Their dinner was simply delicious and supplied by the venue. To round out the meal, their guests were treated to cupcakes from International Bakery in La Crosse, WI.  Just another example of how fun loving this group is - their speeches set the room on fire!  The laughter (and a little embarrassment at moments) evident on their parent's faces say it all!

The dance commenced with a romantic first dance from the couple.  Music was provided by Music Mix of La Crosse (La Crosse, WI).  Our hearts melt each and every time we watch a bride and groom  dance together for the first time on their special day!  We wish M & J a very happy future together as husband and wife!

{Class-of-2015 D} Onalaska High School Wisconsin Senior Photographer

Wow - can this guy rock a sweaty hockey shot or what?!  (Big thanks to his mom for operating as the "sweat spray"!)  He was a trooper, putting up with some very chilly weather throughout his senior session in La Crosse, WI.  He'll be graduating from Onalaska High School next year.  In addition to hockey, he also plays football.  Us photographers will never argue with a client who wants to bring along some fun sports gear as props!

{Baby K} Onalaska Wisconsin Baby Photographer

Baby K is one and making the most of it!  He had a bit of a rough start being born a bit earlier than expected.  So, along with his family, we were thrilled to have had the opportunity to watch him grow into a lovely little boy!  With a smile like his, we can't help but enjoy each time he visits our studio.  Plus, give this guy a yummy chocolate cake and he will be sure to make the most of it!  Surprisingly, no frosting got caught in his hair, but it was all over the rest of him!  Ah, the simple joys in life for a one year old!  Click here, here, and here to see some of his past sessions.

{B & K Engaged} La Crosse Wisconsin Wedding Photographer

Another engagement - we can not get enough of all these couples in love!  B & K are set to be wed in April of 2015.  With such a fun loving couple, their engagement session was full of fun and laughter. I'm sure their wedding will be no different!  We spent some time exploring a park in West Salem, WI.  And despite being loyal fans to two opposing football teams (Green Bay Packers for her and Pittsburgh Steelers for him) they were able to find some middle ground.  We actually had their original engagement session scheduled another day, but about 30 minutes into the shoot, the clouds opened up and rained us out.  Right before the heaviest of the downpour, we managed to get a lovely umbrella shot which made the whole dreary worthwhile!

{Class of 2015 M} Onalaska Wisconsin High School Senior Photographer

Seriously, this guy rocks!  I got an acoustic guitar concert while I shot his senior photos - it was wonderful!  I may need to hire him to join me for sessions as background music!  But really, he was a great musician and a great guy to work with.  As a senior at Onalaska High School, M is at the beginning of his last year of high school before heading out of state for college.  He even brought along Ranger, his German Shepard/Lab mix to join in a few photos.  Despite the outrageous heat this day, we got some wonderful photos in the park in La Crosse, WI.  And we bet this M will do great things in his future!

{Baby L} Onalaska Wisconsin Baby Photographer

Can this little guy get any cuter?!  We saw him when he was just an itty bitty newborn and he had the fullest head of hair.  And now, nine months later, he is still rocking those lovely locks!  Plus, he kept his smiles hidden for the beginning of his session, but mom and dad were just too funny and he couldn't resist showing off those two bottom pearly whites!  To see some of his adorableness from his first session with us, click here.  We hope to see him again as he continues to grow (that's one of our favorite part about working with such awesome families, watching all the littles grow up)!

{M Family} La Crosse Wisconsin Family Photographer

Does this crew know how to rock a family shoot or what?!  They were such a tight knit group, letting us get some close family shots despite the soaring temps that day!  They were all so wonderful to chat with and to photograph, a real joy of a family.  We may have finished off 20 bottles of water that afternoon, but there's not a drop of sweat visible.  We ended with a fun filled cool down in the Mississippi where there was even more laughter.  All in all, not a bad way to spend a sweltering late summer day!

{L Family} La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer

Oh my goodness - these boys were just too fun!  They were laughing up a storm, at each other's antics and at mom's awesome dancing skills!    Despite the heat, this family was relaxed and seemed to really enjoy spending time together.  That's what we love to photograph.  Nothing beats a family full of joy.  We took advantage of the gorgeous green park and took advantage of the lovely late afternoon light!  This family is still a bit new to Wisconsin and, with dad currently one of our country's military members, they are already predicting their next move.  What a fun adventure!

{Baby C} Caledonia Minnesota Baby Photographer

Baby C was absolutely adorable when he came in for a visit!  At 6 weeks new, we expected him to give us a bit of a challenge.  But he was just as sleepy and scrunchy as his newborn counterparts!  He snuggled into the soft fur and slept through most of his session.  But clearly, he comes from a very easy going family as his two older sisters were just as wonderful to photograph!  Plus, anyone who wears a bow tie and sweater for their photos gets a thumbs up in our books!  We hope to see him and his fun family as he grows up!

{Mr. & Mrs. N} Minnesota Wedding Photographer

Wow!  What a fun wedding weekend we had in Minnesota with this lovely couple!  They were so full of excitement and the day turned out very well!  Their adventurous spirits took them on a hike up above a waterfall - which lead to the stunning image above!  Then, we spent the rest of the time we had with them before their ceremony wandering around this gorgeous country property.  

Her bouquet was simply stunning!  It was a very full country style gathering, complete with sunflowers, roses, and many other lovely blooms, berries, pods, and grasses.  She definitely got her workout from carrying it around, but it made the perfect addition to her gorgeous gown!  Plus, it provided a great setting for a quick shot of their wedding bands.  

We always love getting to know a bride and groom and really get a great feel for their personalities when their wedding party is around.  This fun crew was no exception!  The guys inspired lots of laughter that day, cracking jokes every other second.  The ladies were also full of humor and good cheer.  The day went so smoothly because everyone was so open to photos and simply enjoying their time with the couple on such a big day!

Yes, you're seeing that right!  This beautiful bride is not afraid of slimy creatures and wanted to make sure she kissed her last frog before her wedding to her prince!  Her bridesmaids actually captured the little fellow with their bare hands - kudos to those daring gals!  After a few shots (including a real smooch on the frogs nose), they released him safely into the grass near the edge of the pond.  Definitely a first for us as photographers, but we loved the opportunity to catch such a fun and silly shot!

The groomsmen whisked the groom away before the ceremony in one of their favorite trucks, complete with a "burnout".  Then, after a lovely ceremony, the day concluded with a fun and relaxed reception.  We were so excited to have the chance to see this couple (who we've known for quite some time) tie the knot!  We spent some of the wedding as their photographers and some as their guests and we were so happy to be able  to join in the celebration!
