Part numba 2 comeing at you. If you haven’t seen Part 1, check it out here first.
Sometimes there are just so many photos that you want to show you need to do it in two posts as to not overwhelm the audience. This was one of those weddings.
The Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee is such a gorgeous place. So many beautiful things and lots of ornate details that transform a wedding into a fairy tale. Everyone was looking their best and ready to shake it on the dance floor. Jake and I partied with everyone and were able to capture some of the energy on the camera.
Bon appetit!
The two sexiest dudes on the dance floor. (Their words, not mine)
Yess!!! Ali and Brandon are getting married in August and I get to shoot it!
We snuck outside for some photos. Awe yeah!
There were a lot of folks getting Iced. Granted it was @blatzliqor’s wedding…
Oh my. I got married. Which means I am Murried. That is pretty awesome and I don’t know if it has all set in still. All I know is that I get to hang out with a hot lady for the rest of my life and we get to do cool stuff like go to Ikea. Anyways… thanks so much for all the love on Twitter, Facebook, and in real life.
Speaking of love… My good friend Sam Dodge (One of the MANY photographers who attended our nuptials) put together a stop motion video of our wedding and reception.
He is pretty much the man. Check out his site and some more of his Stop Motion stuff.
Also, some people might have seen this, but Nicole and I went out and took some photos after we got back from Door County (Super cool modern B&B with the best owner ever). Her dress was kinda a mess from the wedding day from all of the running around and dancing, so we decided to take it out and make some more photos. We did a lil Trash the Dress shoot and got some really great stuff. Here is a lil’ sneak peek of what is to come (One of the perks to marrying a photographer).
P.s. If you didn’t see the post from yesterday, check it out. I am teaching a class on Digital Photography.
Madison is crazy after a Badgers game. Not to mention when the Badgers lose. To the Hawkeyes. Granted, this was good news for Kevin and Sarah. Call it an early wedding present for the two Hawkeyes that were getting married that day in Madison.
The Orpheum was a really cool venue. Really dark… but really cool. Lots of texture and lots of space. Those always make for fun photos. Jake and I went up to Madison a few hours early from Milwaukee to shoot an engagement session for Nick and Dana who are getting married at the same place next year. After the shoot we got some lunch then it was time to get our wedding shoes on. (I don’t really have wedding shoes, although I did wear pink and white chucks when shooting my cousins wedding)
There were lots of cool touches to the wedding that made it very personal and fun to shoot. Sarah had her mother and grandmothers dress on display as well as their stories for people to check out. The bouquets were made out of different herbs and smelled amazing. After they said I Do and kissed, Sarah’s dad busted out a guitar and Kevin serenaded her on the steps of the stage. It was a very warm and fun wedding to shoot even though it was chilly outside. I am so glad that we got a chance to be a part of these two Hawks special day.
Oh my, oh my, oh me… Again, I can’t express how much I love shooting weddings of people who have a personal flair to everything that they do. People who infuse their personality into everything from the vows to the shoes to the drinks to the wedding party.
Shawn and Cassie’s wedding had all of their awesomeness infused into one giant day which has now turned into one giant blog post. I loved everything from the Chuck Taylors that the grooms men wore to the Crazy Booth that is going to be tough to top in 2010.
The wedding was at the Eisner Museum in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward, which has tons of really great places to take photos. After the ceremony we went running around the Third Ward taking tons of photos, tripping on things, and dropping bridesmaids. (Wasn’t as fatal as it sounds) From there, the Ceremony rocked and the Crazy Booth was brought. By the end of the night I was exhausted, but had such a fun time shooting and capturing an amazing party for two amazing people. Congrats Shawn and Cassie.
(now on to the photos which is why you are looking at the blog anyways)
Matt and Krista are awesome! It was so much fun shooting their wedding at the Milwaukee County War Memorial. The light was great, the people were fun, and the wedding was beautiful. Matt is a cancer survivor and friend and it was a great honor for me to document this day for him. Jake, Nicole, and I shot photos, danced a bit, and rocked the Crazy Booth all night long. Enjoy the images, you two are great!
I am editing weddings out the ear right now. Going through the photos and seeing the emotion of the day is one of my favorite things about being a photographer. It also doesn’t hurt when you have fantastic clients. Jake and I have been editing as fast as we can and as long as our eyeballs stay open. There are so many photos from this year that I love and so many locations and weddings that were beautiful. On that note… Ima get back to editing.
