Brittany and Mike’s Lake Lawn Resort wedding is the kind of wedding that wedding photographers dream about capturing. Listen, I’m not talking about the vintage Ford trucks, the amazing flowers, or even the magical lakeside setting…what I’m talking about is the insane amount of love within both Brittany and Mike’s family units AND their total adoration and love for one another. Take a peek and see for yourself the massive amounts of unfiltered tears of happiness and the always magical love.
Lake Lawn Resort Wedding
Posted on April 26, 2017
Carlie + Amy got married at Lake Lawn Resort in Delavan, Wisconsin. Carlie’s family has vacationed there for generations, and the girls decided it was the perfect destination for their wedding. Now every holiday spent at Lake Lawn will feel even more special.
Weather always plays a big part in a wedding day, and when you have an outdoor wedding you always hope you can stick with plan A. Short of a torrential downpour, nothing was going to stop these brides from walking down to the lakefront for their vows. The day may have started a little grey, but by the time the brides were ready to seal the deal the cloud coverage significantly lightened to the most luminous of lighting conditions. I loved photographing their engagement session in Chicago, but I loved photographing their marriage and (super awesome) families even more. Their wedding day was certainly one of my favorites.
Green Lake Wedding
Posted on April 14, 2017
There was so much love at this intimate Green Lake wedding. Josh and Angie got married last September at a stunning private residence right on the lake. The weather gave us a bit of everything that day including rain, wind, clouds, sun, etc. Talk about a wedding that had it all – ha! Luckily for us the weather cleared up just as I arrived, and the the outdoor wedding was still a go. There were so many things that I loved from their wedding, but my favorite was the sweet first look on the front porch of the grand estate. Josh and Angie really have a special kind of love,and I couldn’t have been more thrilled to be able to document their beautiful wedding day.
Best Place Wedding
Posted on March 28, 2017
This Best Place wedding was one of the most intimate and beautiful urban weddings I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing. Michael and Amanda call Chicago home, but wanted to incorporate Amanda’s Wisconsin roots in their wedding day. Of course they chose the quintessential Milwaukee venue to host their nuptials and reception – Best Place at the Historic Pabst Brewery. After getting ready at the stunningly gorgeous Brewhouse Inn and Suites, Michael and Amanda had their first look at Zilber Park, and then headed over to the venue to say their vows. Have I mentioned how laid back and funny these two are? They were the most chill couple I have ever photographed, and encouraged all my vacant lot inspirations – it was true match made in heaven for this rule-breaking photographer.
DIY Outdoor Wisconsin Wedding

Nathan and Shelby’s garden themed wedding still has me going, “GAH!”. Besides being insanely gorgeous in front of the camera, they are also insanely gorgeous on the inside, and that makes for the most sincerely stunning images. I absolutely loved working with this incredible couple and their wonderful family. Nathan and Shelby’s splendid affair was a true labor of love, and a great example of a DIY wedding. From the chalkboard signs, church pews, dilly bean wedding favors, to the couple’s very own restaurant fulfilling the delicious catering, no detail was presented without their careful restoration, salvage, or modification. Narrowing down the entire collection of photos from their outdoor Wisconsin wedding day into this post was extremely difficult as there was so much attention to detail, and so many beautiful moments constantly unfolding. So, I present you to the quintessence of their loved filled wedding day.
