Meet the gorgeous and lovely Lars and Brooke!  It just doesn't seem to fail, we were once again totally blessed with a beautiful day.  At the start of the ceremony it wasn't looking like the rain was going to hold off ... but sure enough the SUN popped just at the right moment and the rest of the day was perfect.  A perfect mixture between clouds and sun to give Lars and Brooke a beautiful day to remember.
We met before the ceremony which gave us plenty of time to do a private photo sessions with them, their wedding party and families so that after the ceremony it was all fun, food and joy!
What a beautiful setting with such lovely touches that Brooke made all herself.  She had a little extra help from Lizie Anne from Lize Anne Wedding and Proposals who pulled her DIY dreams all together on the big day.
Cheers to my newest couple!  All the best to you and congrats again, Em

Wedding days are pretty neat.  The excitement has been building, the joy is overflowing and when I show up I help pull it all together and help facilitate everyone to look their best.  The next part is totally out of my control but it is always when the magic happens ... the sun will pop just for a second to make an image go from good to out of control awesome.  The rain will stop just long enough to get outdoor photos.  Some might call this coincidences, but I call them God winks.
We had a number of them during Matt and Allison's big day.  The rain came down hard during the ceremony and with windows surrounding the entire church no one could miss it.  To our happiness the rain stopped 5 minutes before we were scheduled to do outdoor photos.  The clouds stuck around for most of the outdoor part which looked beautiful but just at the perfect time the sun popped which gave us this gorgeous warm glow.  We were so fortunate.
The other great part for the day was Matt and Allison.  What a beautiful couple.  Their love and support for each other is a true inspiration and just awesome to be around.  We had such a fun day shooting with you both.  Thank you for being so adamant to have me as your photographer.  All the best to you,  Em

Huge smiles and giggles filled this great day.  Jon and Jamie were so fun to work with as they were just glowing all day long.  Jamie's laugh equals pure joy.  Just look at how happy she was on the big day.  A few tears before the ceremony but that didn't stop anyone's fun.  The rain held off and we had a perfect day to work our way through Wausau capturing the love.  What a fun day, couple and wedding party.  Cheers to your love!  Em
