FLORAL GREEN BAY WEDDING | JEN & JEFF

Effortlessly beautiful. Fresh, romantic florals. Non-stop adorable glances. This is just touching the tip of how lovely Jen & Jeff's wedding was!! After their refreshing engagement session last fall, we knew that we were in for even more great style & adoring eyes from the two of them on their wedding day! From the striking looks Jen threw our way to the way she and Jeff fell into each other so perfectly, we could go on & on about how perfect they are for each other and how much fun we had photographing their love! After saying "I Do" in the beautiful Saint Francis Xavier Cathedral, Jen and Jeff arranged for us to photograph them with their family & bridal party at the Green Bay Botanical Garden. The lush gardens made us feel like we were whisked away from Wisconsin and shooting somewhere half a world away!! Handmade details from family members like Jen's Mom gave both us & their charismatic bridal party gave us lovely signage & ribbon streamers to play with :)

In front of 250 of their closest friends & family, Jen & Jeff held nothing back when it was time to relax & celebrate at the Rock Garden! Their first dance brought down the house and surprised ALL of their guests with the "history of dance"! Halfway through their slow song, the DJ spun a faster tune and they took turns showing us all of their moves!! Talk about a way to energize your guests and pack the dance floor!

We are SO happy for Jen & Jeff and are incredibly grateful to have gotten to know such genuine people!!

WAUSAU NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY | LITTLE LENNON WILLIAM!

Our sweet friends Sara & Brian are now blessed with THE most adorable little man and we couldn't be more excited for them!!! We had so much fun with these two darlings during Sara's snowy maternity session and their spring session (along with our regular McP dates of course ;)) and were so excited to meet baby Lennon!! He visited our studio on his 7th day and brought the cutest little smile with him!! :) Sara & Brian so naturally fell into their new roles as Mom & Dad, just as we had a feeling they would, and our hearts overflowed with happiness watching them love & care for little Lennon William!! We love these three so much! <3 Love! | K&B

ADORABLE WOODSY WAUSAU ENGAGEMENT | LAUREN & CAMERON

Joyful, adorable & contagious. These are the first 3 words that come to mind when we think about Lauren & Cameron :) These two wear their emotions right on their faces, and it is impossible not to smile when you're around them!! Lauren is from Green Bay, Cameron is from Chicago, and they met 4 years ago while attending Wisconsin Lutheran College. Lauren's roommate was dating someone on the University soccer team, so she joined her to watch the boys practice and noticed a certain guy on the team with lime green shoes. With Lauren's curiosity at its peak, one thing lead to another and L&C were set up on a blind date. Four years later... they were still dating! Since their 4 year anniversary had just passed Lauren figured that if it didn't happen then, Cameron must not be proposing anytime soon. After the anniversary, to Lauren's surprise, Cameron's proposal came right around Thanksgiving weekend. His plans included cooking Lauren dinner and surprising her with a custom wine label... and of course she said yes!

One of the cutest tidbits about these two is that Lauren is a Packer fan and Cameron is a huge fan of their rivals, the Chicago Bears. When we asked Lauren how much of a Packer fan she is, she responded with a stone-cold serious "I bleed green & gold." Cameron is just as intense in cheering for his Chicago Bears, so football season can be an interesting time for the two of them! We love that they brought this competitive spirit to their engagement session and had so much fun working it into their engagement photos! L&C are planning a Milwaukee wedding this August and we are SO excited to be a part of their day!!

LAKE SUPERIOR MICHIGAN ENGAGEMENT | KIRSTEN & GENE

As a nursing student, Kirsten met Gene's sister who thought that she hands down must meet her brother, Gene. K&G ended up chatting on the phone for three hours!! Since Gene was living in Indianapolis at the time, Kirsten took a weekend trip to visit him with the mentality that if things weren't going as expected, she could always stay with her cousin ;) Lucky for the two of them, they hit it off right away and were engaged six months later! Truly, Gene bought Kirsten's ring on a Saturday and his sister wanted to see it so he brought it home with him for Thanksgiving weekend and then realized... what is the point in waiting any longer to put this on Kirsten's finger?! Of course she said yes, and we are SO excited to be a part of their Wausau wedding this August!

Kirsten & Gene are both super mellow and easy going with a great sense of humor, and we were pumped when they invited us up to Ontonagon MI (Gene's hometown!) for their engagement session on Lake Superior with s'mores, snuggling, and a perfect campfire on the beach!! :)
