Winter Engagement in Milwaukee | Tara & Charlie

Tara and Charlie met in college, making Milwaukee the perfect spot for the engagement session! On a crisp, sunny winter afternoon we met the two of them at Lake Park and continued to be impressed by their ability to remain adorable & smiley together despite the chilly temps. :) After exploring a sun-filled bridge overlooking Lake Michigan, we headed to one of our favorite beaches in all of Wisconsin. If you didn’t know any better, you’d think we were in a tropical destination! The sky was bright, waves were rolling in, the water was perfectly blue, and Tara & Charlie were dressed to the nines with Tara in a gorgeous dress and Charlie looking dapper in a suit. :) These two are planning a classic wedding at the loveliest country club in Green Bay, and we cannot WAIT for July to arrive so we can photograph them as husband & wife!!

Love, Kelsy & Butch

WINTER ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS | PATTI & DAN!

The snow, the dreamy light – Patti & Dan's engagement session couldn't have been more wonderful! With Patti's parents backyard running into Rib Mountain State Park, it provided an idyllic setting to capture her and Dan together. The four of us hiked into the woods and found sunshine bursting through the snow covered evergreens - the PERFECT spot to cozy up! :) Chilled from the wind on the way in, we found ourselves nice and toasty in the woods. While creating pictures with Patti & Dan they took the opportunity to show just how adorable they are together in front of our cameras! Out of nowhere, Dan scooped Patti up and the smiles and laughter that followed had us smiling from ear to ear! We had SO much fun with these two and we could not WAIT to get their film scans back as soon as we left the session. These two are planning a Wausau wedding next October that we are already looking forward to being a part of!

Love, Kelsy & Butch

WINTER ENGAGEMENT SESSION | BECKY & JOE

The first few photos we captured during this winter engagement session are among the first four images below, which serves as all the proof one could possibly need to know one thing to be true: BECKY + JOE = ADORABLE + SO HAPPY!!! We seriously cannot get over these two - every image with their faces in it brings the biggest smile to our faces :) If there is one more thing we know to be true, it is that happiness is completely contagious! And from the moment Becky & Joe stepped into this gorgeous snowy field with us, their energy & anticipation brought so much excitement to their session! These two just bring out the light in each other, and we feel so lucky to have captured it on one of the most beautiful snowy days in January!! We will be counting down the days until their wedding in the Twin Cities -- October happens to be our favorite month of all the months, and photographing Becky & Joe's wedding will be an absolute highlight!

WINTER ENGAGEMENT SESSION! | AMANDA & TYLER

What's better than a winter engagement session in the snow? Well, a session that involves one of the most awesome, hilarious, adorable & fun couples on the planet of course!! Tyler is my (Kelsy's) cousin, and we were lucky enough to see pretty much the entire process of these two falling in love! It started YEARS ago and even then it was so clear that they both had massive crushes on each other, whether they admitted it or not! ;) Fast forward to that random weekday evening when Tyler proposed and she said yes, and here we are! We are SO excited for the two of them and were looking forward to their engagement session for weeks! Just a couple weeks ago they visited us in Wausau and despite a bit of chilly weather (read: it was COLD!) we had a great time working our way through a wintery scene that looked like it was straight out of a movie! You might recognize Amanda & Tyler from a Tuscan Styled shoot a couple years back where they dressed up as our "bride & groom" - they were adorably in love then and were even cuter together this time around (which we didn't think was possible)! And this time, it's real ;) We're pumped we were able to chime in to photograph their engagement session, and can't wait to tear up their dance floor later this year as their wedding guests!!!

Lots of Love!! | K&B

SABRINA & ROBB | SNOWY WINTER ENGAGEMENT

From the moment Sabrina & Robb contacted us we knew that we absolutely, positively had to get to know the two of them! They are adventurous, warm, and energetic -- all of which is completely contagious and made for such a fun engagement session!! The four of us met in downtown Wausau and cozied up for a glass of wine inside of the Back When Cafe before heading to Sabrina's parents' property for the rest of their session! We are SO looking forward to being a part of their Wausau Country Club wedding this August!!
