Kristin and Nick’s Astor Hotel Milwaukee Wedding
Another oldie, but goodie. Love these guys, love the light at the Astor Hotel, love the massive size of St Johns… I love it all.

Ebony and Tope – Engagement
Ebony and Tope are a lovely couple, so very much in love, located up in Minneapolis Minnesota. It is so much fun working with people like this, so nice and friendly. Smiles were never ending, and there was a warm feel in the air (even though it was a little cool out). I learned a lot about culture as well, as Tope told us stories of Nigeria, and how things are very different there… One of my favorite stories was when he was talking about the difference between pants and trousers… There pants means underwear and trousers are slacks. This was funny because Simon commented on Tope’s pants. Simon – “Nice pants” Tope’s thought – “How did he see my underwear”… There are many differences in the cultures between the US and Nigeria, but a few things are the same, humor and love.
Anyways, enough words, here are some images:

Shawn and Cassie Engagement Session
Simon and I photographed Shawn and Cassie last weekend for their Engagement Session. We wondered around the streets of Milwaukee for a while, talking, making some awesome photographs and having a great time. Shawn and Cassie were really fun to work with, up for anything, energetic, and truly just nice people. Oh and it was also obvious that they loved each other deeply, and I think the images show this pretty well. So enough out of me, take a look at the lovely couple Shawn and Cassie…
Big thanks to Shawn and Cassie for having us be a part of their journey together…
