WE LOVE FALL | CENTRAL WISCONSIN

For the first time in a few years, we can truly say that we maximized every ounce of Wisconsin's beautiful autumn!! It's not quite over yet, but the leaves were being swept from the streets in our neighborhood today which really only means one thing...they're making room for -- dare we say -- snow! Truly though, when we think about the last month we can't help but smile.  A trip to Bayfield, so much fall color, new chili recipe's, watching Parker bounce around in leaf piles five times his size, butternut squash risotto (yum!), a few extra afternoon coffee's, dream book writing on an inspired Sunday, fall pontooning & picnicking in Door County, taking entirely too many pictures of Parker, a weekend away with friends for some much needed relaxation & laughter, sessions in dreamy colorful spots (hello Chicago skyline + Grandma's property!), yummy birthday cupcakes, and SO much more!! Without further ado, here's a little peek at our fall -- we hope yours has been just as lovely & yummy!! :) Love | K&B

CHICAGO JUST MARRIED SESSION ON FILM | ERIN & KEVIN

Here's where we confess that we wish all of our wedding couples decided to have a just married session! Erin & Kevin invited us to Chicago shortly after their wedding day for casual photos in their wedding attire, and we fell in love with the slow-paced lovey-dovey nature of this session! Let's break it down... you just married your best friend in the entire world and celebrated with your closest friends & family. You truly couldn't be happier!!! You might be missing all things wedding a bit, and you sure can attest to the fact that your wedding day is one of the fastest-moving most amazing and emotionally fulfilling days of your entire life. Why not take a moment to slow down, slip back into your wedding gown, and love on each other while remembering your day that went by in the blink of an eye! We couldn't possibly be more excited about these images that we created with Erin & Kevin! The Chicago skyline, the beach, and some of the most romantic light we have ever seen -- what more could we ask for?!  :)

Love | K&B

MATT & KATIE IN WISCONSIN | ON FILM

When Matt & Katie landed in Wisconsin, we couldn't believe it. Even more crazy, we got to play host to them for a week!! After their workshop in Wausau we had a bit of downtime and wanted to show M&K some of Wisconsin's beauty, so we headed to the Dells of Eau Claire park and explored the area together! The four of us (five really, because Parker came too!) had the most relaxing time hanging out on the rocks on a gorgeous afternoon. Being that we were a couple photographers in a beautiful park, of course cameras were involved! We ended up photographing each other, and ever since we got this film back (we're talking two months ago!) we have been just dying to share!! Matt and Katie are super adorable together and their love for one another is such an inspiration! It's not often that we get to have so much quality time with another husband/wife team who spends nearly every moment together and still maintains as much love for one another as they did on their wedding day! We felt like we could truly relate to M&K on so many levels, and it was just an absolute joy to spend time with them :) Without a doubt in our minds, we know these images will make you smile! Even if you have never heard of or had the chance to meet Matt & Katie, all you need to know is that their hearts are enormous and they are two of the most genuine people we have ever photographed/hosted/hung out with :)
