My first love in photography is weddings. I am just a life long romantic! It is a great privilege to share a special day with my wedding couples and their family and friends.
We met at High Cliff State Park late in the afternoon. High Cliff is one of my favorite portrait locations. It offers a great variety of settings all within a few minutes driving time. Our session started right next to the parking lot then moved into the woods and some of the rock formations. We finally ended up on a hill overlooking Lake Winnebago right at sunset. So our pictures ranged from romantic to fun and quirky, with a few cinematic images at the end. One thing I knew for sure, all the fun and laughter at the engagement picture…
We had a wonderful time on a cold (and a little bit snowy) January day at High Cliff State Park. A few pictures caught the light snow and made a magical setting! Here are some of the favorite pictures of a beautiful couple.

It was a windy wedding day! She and her bridesmaids had a good workout just keeping the dress and veil in place for the ceremony. I've always told brides that they should embrace random things at their wedding. Random things will happen and they actually make your wedding more memorable. No one remembers the perfect wedding - because nothing really happened. But everyone remembers the wedding where the wind blew or it was freezing or the maid of honor fell into the lake! Mind you, I'm not saying it is a good thing that the maid of honor fell into…
I am a certified People Person! Weddings are so much fun because I get to watch people and capture unscripted moments. This little angel was studying a bouquet in the receiving line after the ceremony. Not sure what she was thinking but she looks so adorable in the picture that a million moms would arm wrestle for the privilege of giving her a hug!

Carly and Ryan's lakeside wedding - set to the song Circling. A short review of an almost perfect day. Carly and Ryan were married on a beautiful June day on the shores of Green Bay in Fish Creek. This video is combines some of our favorite memories from the day - enjoy! I have always like both still images and motion pictures. I have been steadily building up a great set of professional video equipment and plan on doing a lot more video in the future. Ironically, I find myself drawn to film and alternative photography more and more. To…
A High Cliff Bride So many beautiful brides - and so many beautiful images! I find the hardest part of photography is editing. Specifically - culling images the find the best. Sure, the occasional out of focus shot, or someone is blinking, is easy to cut out. But then I get 10 pictures in a row of the same scene but with wonderful little variations. A shy smile in one picture, a serious look in another. One picture is playful while another is deep and serious; and this one has a mystery! They all reflect the complex personalities of my…
January is the dead of Winter but wedding season is coming. It is not too late to find a photographer for 2020. I still have some room in my calendar. Casual, formal, BOHO they are all great and great fun. I specialize in "lifestyle" wedding photography. Lifestyle photography, at least to me, encompasses: Capturing moments as they happen - with minimal posing or interferenceSetting up opportunities for great photos to happenWorking with my couples to make sure the day reflects their personalities and dreamsInteracting with guests in a natural and friendly way - not just documenting the wedding but being…
