Nate and Sarah


What a great day on Saturday. Sarah and Nate had an awesome wedding. We just really enjoyed hanging out with them all day. The girls started out the day with hair and makeup and a lunch at the Grapevine. The guys started their day a bit more casually, decorating cars and eating cheeseburgers. I loved listening to Sarah share about some of the things she loves about Nate. These two were just incredibly sweet together. From start to finish it was an incredibly relaxed perfect day. The ceremony was at Union Congregational and the reception at Green Bay Country Club. Carmen at Cutting Garden did the florals which were amazing.

Make up at Salon Forte


A little caffeine fix


The guys hanging out admiring their handiwork on the cars.


Some details






The church is a historic site in Green Bay. It was built by shipbuilders. The ceiling resembles the hull of a ship.


Love it! Sarah's favorite car is the Mazda Miata which she got to cruise around in on her wedding day.


The reception was at Green Bay Country Club. They let the bridal party take some golf carts around the course to take pics. I loved the covered bridge.

Mackenzie


Check that out!! Every now and then Mark gets the opportunity to shoot an amazing senior who is after something a little out of the ordinary, and this week that was just the case. Mackenzie is an amazing sweet girl and also an incredible dancer. Although she hasn't danced this past year, ballet has been a big part of her life so Mark had a great time capturing that. Next year it is off to college with the goal of becoming a lawyer.

Love the tutu . . .


And the shoes! (That takes some skill.)




Having some fun


Mackenzie has the most amazing eyes.




Ashley is Mackenzie's best friend from childhood. She also acted as on site hair and make up specialist.





Gorgeous


Relaxing on the beach



Splash!


Enjoy the show!

Meghan and Steve


Meghan has been waiting for this since yesterday, but we took a day off yesterday . . . and so here you go. We went to one of our favorite shooting grounds, Kewaunee; and the weather was a little sketchy, but it turned out to be all good. This couple was pretty crazy and tons of fun. I think you will get the idea as you look at the pics.

Love all the cool old buildings in Kewaunee


A little wrestling


A little playing in the grass. These two crack me up. This is going to be one fun wedding.




There are people out there wondering about the shots that don't make the cut. Here is an example of bad focus...it's still kinda cool.

Jeremy and Sarah


I am back from a long day of sailing with the family, and here is my belated post. This was an excellent wedding from start to finish. We started at the brides parents "cottage" on Little Sturgeon Bay, and then the wedding was at St. Joes in Sturgeon Bay. The reception was at Stone Harbor (of course!) I really had a good time hanging out with these two, and they were so relaxed (as one could possibly be on their wedding day) You gotta see the images to get the whole picture :)

Some before stuff:






Some Sexy!











The party.








This is good cake light.


NICE!

I love this shot. I don't think this was his drink of choice though.


One more thing--Sarah's brother was her "maid" of honor ie man of honor. He gave the best maid of honor speech I've had the privilege of hearing. Jeremy's grandpa who is 79 was the best man. He was keeping up with all the festivities until late into the evening. I think one of the best dancers out there. I loved how Jeremy and Sarah honored these two special people in their lives and went a little against the norm. Enjoy the slideshow.

Pete and Lindsay


When you plan your wedding for June, you probably don't anticipate heavy rains and temperatures in the 40s. That's Wisconsin for you. The cool thing about Lindsay and Pete is they never let the bad weather keep them from having a great day. These two are madly in love and it shows. The wedding was at St. Joes and the reception in a tent at Heritage Hill. The rehearsal dinner the night before was at Lambeau. We will try to post some pics later this week.

The gorgeous Lindsay.


Pete braving the rain.


Getting dressed


Father Jim gave a very special homily that involved harassing Pete about his job.


The happy couple after the ceremony


The ultra hot Lindsay in the church


This was such a fun group. They kept us laughing the whole night. (Click on the image to see it larger.)

Love this shot!


This is a close friend of the family and she is nearly ninety. She made it a long way to the wedding, and left right before we did!

Kissing in the rain


Bouche!!!



Some cool dancin'! Sound Dimensions was the DJ and as usual did a fantastic job. This was one rocking party and there were some fantastic entertainers in the wedding party! Which one do you like better?




I am a sly cat! On the balcony at HH.

Baby Cadence

I had a great baby shoot last week, and I am late on the post! Cadence is the daughter of Ryan and Kirstin who got married in May last year. Ryan is a great musician and Kirstin is a great mother! Congrats on the new house!

Nice Face!

I am liking the silhouettes these days.

Good daddy

Big hands... small hands





It's about that time.



It's definitely that time.

Gina and Travis

Mark headed to Steven's Point on Monday to take some pictures at Iverson Park with Gina and Travis. They are getting married next February so it was nice to get some engagement pictures taken on a warm sunny day. Mark had a great time with these two with quite a few laughs.

Some things to do at a park with the one you love . . .

Some hotness in the picnic shelter

Watch a baseball game together (Travis almost made it to the major leagues!!!)
