Labor Day weekend on Super 8

My whole family got together for Labor Day last September. The typical Labor Day for my family includes corn on the cob, sitting and relaxing, fishing, and my dad playing and singing on his guitar. I brought out my husbands Super 8 mm camera. This is my first film and I have to say I think I did good for my first time! I hope to shoot more with this fun camera.

Watching the video makes me miss summer so much!

Amanda and Greg wedding

Church ceremony in Sauk City, Wisconsin. Reception at the Marriott in Middleton.

I love capturing the brides face when she's slipping into her wedding dress.





While the girls were getting ready I took some shots of the boys outside. It was cold! The boys were awesome at hiding how cold they felt.







One of my favorites! I love capturing the groom's reaction to seeing his bride for the first time. Priceless.






This church was so beautiful. Perfect light.


































































Near midnight even the staff at the Marriott were joining in on the fun!

Amanda and Greg preview

I shot a fun New Years Eve wedding last year(can't believe I can say that!). I hope everyone's New Year was happy and safe. More images from Amanda and Greg's wedding coming soon!

Sam and Dan

I spent some time with Sam and Dan on a beautiful winter afternoon in Sheboygan last week. I love the location they chose for their engagement shoot. You don't often see beachy photos taken in the winter! They both love to bird watch so we had to get a few shots with their binoculars. Oh I just love those! I love it when couples bring a little prop to their shoot that is meaningful to them. Sam and Dan were just adorable together. Their wedding in May is one I'm definitely looking forward to!

Missy and Mike wedding

I could not wait to shoot Missy and Mike's wedding at the Manti Temple in Manti, Utah a couple weekends ago. When I lived in Utah I had always wanted to shoot at the Manti Temple. I mean, look at how gorgeous that thing is! So I was thrilled when Missy and Mike wanted me to shoot their special day.

It could have been a little warmer but the weather was perfect. Not too windy and just enough sunlight to make the photos extra pretty. Missy and Mike even slipped and fell right on their bellies in the snow at one point. You wont be able to tell that that happened from looking at the photos. Unfortunately, I didn't get a shot of that as I was in horror watching the whole thing :) I like that my clients don't hate me for making them walk in snow for some pretty photos!

Reception at Red Butte Gardens.

What I loved about this wedding:

Missy's dress- I was floored when I first saw Missy in her dress during her bridal shoot in October. Total eye candy of a dress! The jacket is the icing on the cake. Absolutely stunning.

Mike's Tux- Best tux I've seen, ever! The color looked so perfect next the snow outside.

Missy's bouquet-Hello, it had pine cones in it!

The frost on the tree branches while I was taking pictures outside of the temple during their sealing.

The bridesmaids tights!

All of their family and friends who were so welcoming and gracious.









Missy and Becca, one of my past clients who has become a good friend :)


















Burrr!

Missy

The day we took Missy's bridals was perfect. Even the tiny bit of rain made for awesome shots(#16 down).

Next up is the wedding!
