Joe and Claire – Wedding – Part 2


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…

Joe might, or might not have Iced me…

And Joe strikes again…

One last photo from a fantastic wedding.



Joe and Claire – Wedding – Part 1


Oh my. Gorgeous location? The Pfister Hotel for a Milwaukee Wedding . Beautiful bride? Yuh. Great details? Uhm hmm. What more can a photographer ask for??? Crazy groomsmen? Now its a Valo wedding.

Joe and I met through Twitter. @blatzliquor and I, @simonmcconico started following each other (That still sounds awkward even though Twitter is a lot more mainstream now). I frequented his store (They have lots of tastings, wine classes, and great people) and when he got engaged, I, naturally, enquirer who was going to shoot his wedding. We met to talk about their wedding and I got to meet his beautiful bride-to-be, Claire.

Time goes by and the wedding day comes. We started out at the Pfister Spa shooting the ladies getting ready and details. From there we left to get some peoples married at Old St. Mary downtown Milwaukee. They got hitched and we hopped on a Trolly, swung by the Blatzs to pick up some beverages and then ran around downtown to take some amazing photos.

There are so many photos that I decided to do this in two posts, so this is where I leave you to look at photos and wait for another day or so ;)
