I am so excited to share this engagement session with you all! Britney and Edgar are two of the kindest people ever, and shooting their engagement photos at Villa Terrace was a DREAM!

Villa Terrace Engagement | Britney + Edgar

These people right here… they are the ones that kept me goin’ through this crazy year! All of my weddings but six were postponed, so the large majority of the work I did this year was engagement sessions. It was SO good to get out and spend time with all 17 of the engaged couples […]

To me, Lisa and DJ are the picture of longevity. On their one year wedding anniversary, they will simultaneously be celebrating an entire DECADE of being together! I love working with couples who have that kind of history because I sense very strongly that they have so much to teach me about marriage, commitment, and unconditional […]

Schlitz Audubon Wedding | Lisa + DJ

Milwaukee Yacht Club Wedding | Emily + Daniel

“Love each other like your life depends on it, because it does.” Leah’s stepdad offered this advice in his speech before dinner, saying it as a sort of benediction over the room full of family and closest friends. The flickering candlelight mimicked the twinkle in everyone’s eyes as he closed by recounting the line of […]

Historic Pritzlaff Wedding | Leah + Mason

Meet Ingrid and Jaron! I get a few butterflies in my stomach every time I’m about to meet new couples for the first time, but when they’re walking to me dressed like THIS?! Those butterflies are basically doing backflips haha!!
