.peter & sara. Minneapolis, MN engagement photographer


It was a beautiful fall day when I met up with Peter and Sara and their lovely puppy for their engagement shoot.  What a perfect day we had as the weather has now turned quickly to cold and winter coats.   I adore this couple, but I have to say, their dog is pretty AWESOME too!  Some of these shots with her made me laugh right out loud.  Some of the ways she looks at the lens I swear she is saying, "Yep, check me out.  These people LOVE ME!  I'm a lucky dog."
I can't wait for Peter and Sara's big day in February.  It's going to rock!  All the best, Em

Meet the brand new beautiful Miss Elliot!  Born to some of my favorite clients Chris and Kelsy in late September.  It was so awesome to meet her in person finally.  Seeing them together was a great view into my future.  Thank you for including me in this amazing time of your lives and giving me a sneak peek into what January is going to be like at the Torhorst house!  Cheers to the 3 of you.
Much love, Em

.alison & ryan. engagement session Milwaukee Wedding Photographer



met Alison and Ryan downtown Milwaukee for their engagement shoot.  As it has been true to form all season, it POURED rain all day before we were going to start.  When I say rain, I mean "cats and dogs" kind of rain.  Our back up was to move our locations inside.  Not a big deal, just a change of plan.  Seconds before we started the sky opened and once again we had PERFECT weather for their outdoor engagement that incorporated nature and the backdrops of downtown.  I love it when a plan comes together!  Thanks for the fun you too.  Looking forward to next year with you back in Milwaukee.  Happy Autumn.

.danielle & adam. Stevens Point Wedding Photographer

What a celebration!!!  Danielle and Adam know how to throw one fabulous party.  From the fireworks to the band from Ireland (All Folk'D Up), the celebration of their love was a big one!  
The day started at a small church in Mosinee, WI where it all became "official!"  The wedding party then made it's way by pontoon to the reception that was hosted at their families land. The set up was perfect as tent and barn looked fabulous and hosted the perfect party.  
Danielle and Adam truly wanted the day to be as relaxed and fun as possible.  From what I can tell they got exactly what they wanted as everyone had a smile on as the celebration continued throughout the night.  
I'm so pumped that I was able to be a part of this wedding.  We had a great time with you and your families.  Cheers to you both.  All the best, Em
