I know I have been a little behind in my posting.  I have just been busy busy busy with work.  Here are a few shots from my June 21st wedding.  I Had a great time with this couple, they are a lot of fun.  I swear the groom could be my brothers twin.  They say somewhere in the world you have a twin.  The groom’s lives in Montana.  I had a hard time not calling him Kenny.

Here is a great casual portrait of the groom.

The bride coming down the stairs at the start of the processional.

You can see how happy these two are together.

Fun at the park.   We went to Doty park and we actually didn’t have to wait for a bridge!

I have been starting to take my couples into a more urban environment for some fun photos.  I love the way you can use the architecture for interesting backgrounds.

Mmmmm cake!

They thought so as well.

I always love to capture moments between parents and their children.

I had the pleasure of photographing these two the other evening. We did some things at Lawrence University and then walked downtown Appleton.

I love finding different backgrounds that have different textures and patterns.

I love this green door and the look on her face is just priceless. We had a blast doing these photos.

I always like my couple to do a few kissing shots. It lets me know if they have to do any homework with their kissing before the wedding

I am a little behind in posting. We were planning a graduation party for my daughter and you would swear we were having a wedding! Here a some photos from my June 14th wedding. The wedding took place just outside of Sturgeon Bay. It was a beautiful day though a little windy. The bride and groom live in the Netherlands where the groom is from. I had a great time at there celebration

I started at the house where the guys were getting ready. It was a farm house out in the country. The location was beautiful. Here is the groom before the wedding.

After visiting with the guys it was a 5 minute ride to the church. Here is a great detail shot with the flowers and shoes.

and a few of the guests.

This was the first time in 18 years I was asked and more importantly allowed to come up on to the alter during the ceremony. I love the way you can see the guests look on.

After the ceremony the couple had this gorgeous old ford to take them back to the farm house and then to the reception.

Back at the house it was champagne and photos.

Then off to the reception

The reception was at the Sturgeon Bay Yacht Club. the club over looks the water which makes for a great background.

Here are a few pics from Saturday’s wedding.  We had a great time and we all just loved the bazallion degree day with the 180% humidity we had.  Well it wasn’t that hot but you would swear it was August weather.

The Bride was absolutely stunning in her gown and was just glowing all day.

By the time we got to the park, the rain was holding off and the temperature started to drop.  The wind had really picked up but we managed to work with it so everything looked good.

Somebody new all the words to the “Barney” theme song which had me a little worried.

I love this shot.  We had the door open in the reception room and it made for this beautiful background.  You can just see how happy the couple are together.

The entertainment was provided by Sound Dimensions out of Green Bay.  I have worked with Joe an Teresa many times and they know how to make the party happen.  If you are planning a wedding I highly recommend you check them out.

My oldest daughter graduated High School Thursday evening.  I can finally post a picture from the evening because I finally got my point and shoot camera back from her.

My wife and I are very proud of her.  She graduated in the top 10% of her class and will be attending Lawrence University in the fall.  We wish her the best that life has to offer her.  Love you kiddo.

I will be posting photos from Saturday’s wedding soon.  It was a great time, though a little breezy.

I have a few photos from my Saturday wedding to share.  The couple were awesome.  They were very into each other and you can tell they were not stressed at all about anything.  It was about the two of them celebrating their day.

The bride got ready at her house which was only a few blocks from the church.

The wedding party was game for anything

The reception was at the beautiful North Shore Country Club.  We didn’t do to much damage to the course.

This is Uncle Carl.  They warned me about him.  He is 95 and full of life.

I had a wonderful time with this wedding.  They made everybody feel like part of the family.

Well it has been slow so not a lot to post about, no photos or nothing.  I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend, and to all the veterans out there a Big THANK YOU.  We would not be who we are without you.

When I started this blog I wanted to post at least once a week.  Well that didn’t work, but I will keep trying.  I should have some more wedding and engagement photos to post soon, so check back.

Happy Monday everybody. Busy weekend we had Mother’s Day and we also had our oldest go to prom. I hope all the moms had a great Mother’s Day.  We went to Lawrence Chapel to do some prom pictures before they went off for the evening.  Here is one of the chosen pics

They both had a great time.

Here are a few shots for my May 9th wedding. I had a great time and they were a fun couple to work with.

This bible has been in the Grooms family since the 1880’s. They used it for the readings.

Some casual portraits of the couple.

Detail of the flowers

So as promised my review of the show. . . . It was amazing!!! We had great seats smack dab in the middle of the balcony, 2 rows back from the edge.  We saw everything perfectly.  It was funny and entertaining and the time flew by quickly.  There was even a sing-a-long at the end.  Here is a picture from my PS of me and  my daughter outside of the PAC as we were leaving.

I want to send a big THANK YOU to my daughter for a great Bday present.  Thanks Lauren, Love you.

As a final note remember  ” Always look on the bright side of life”
