Andy

We got to know Andy a little bit this past New Year's Eve at Rita and Phil's wedding. He was his dad's best man. Mark had the opportunity to shoot his senior pictures this week. He plays football so the atrium was a great place to start out the shoot. Next year he plans to start a law enforcement program.

Love this shot


I am thinking this smile gets all the girls.


And this one.


The lesson of this shot is never take your sister along for your senior pictures. This was in the park by the way.

Andy was a good sport however.




This may be the messiest room we have encountered in all our senior shoots.


Not quite as high as Mackenzie but not bad for a football player.

A few more . . .

Justin and Moira


Another fantastic wedding on Saturday night. The best weddings for me are when I look at the clock at the end of the evening and think "seriously it cannot be that time already." Moira and Justin had an evening wedding this past Saturday. The ceremony was at the beautiful St. Matts and the reception was in a tent at Heritage Hill. I so enjoyed hearing their story throughout the course of the day. These two are just perfect for each other and it was fun being part of their wedding.

Hair and make up at Jacques Dessange Salon which is a very cool place on Broadway.


Justin and Moira's son Aiden


Love this detail of Aiden.


Justin getting ready.


Moira's dress was amazing. It was a very faint pink.


Moira getting dressed in her home.


Loved Moira's elegant and classic look.



Great family shot.


Love this portrait of Moira and Justin.


The bridal party at St. Matts. Mark had tons of fun talking to Moira's brothers who are all sailors.


The sun was setting during the first dance. The view from the tent was amazing.


The cake was New York style cheesecake. Delicious!


Some funny stuff!



Thanks for letting us take part in your day. Have a great time in Spain!!!! Enjoy the slideshow.

Mike and Kari


Mark had a great shoot in the metropolis of Shawano on Monday with an awesome couple. They introduced him to some great new shooting hot spots.

Love this shot!!!!


Aren't these two adorable?




Mike has that ruggedly handsome look going on.


One of my favorite ring shots of late.

Awesome light.

Melissa and Al


The word that comes to mind when I think of these two is sweet. It was just a pleasure to hang out with them all day. They are a truly kind and thoughtful couple that are just perfect for each other. Melissa is a huge Packer fan with Al following as a close second. So it was fitting that the two of them should say their vows at Lambeau this past Saturday. The reception was at Brett Favre's and their were some bars and trolley riding in between.



Melissa has these amazing eyes.


Love this shot of the groom.


The guys on the 4th floor of the atrium


Walking around Broadway taking some pics and stopping traffic


At the Sardine Can which is a really cool bar downtown



Melissa and her dad have a very special relationship


Love this moment during the first dance


Brad (we shot his wedding around 2 years ago). This guy is a party animal. It was super fun seeing him and his lovely wife Lisa again.


Packer inspired grand march

Bob and Christine


This past weekend we had the privilege of shooting a wedding in one of our favorite places--Gordon Lodge up in the beautiful Bailey's Harbor. Ironically, we were at the same place last July 5th for Fritz and Stella's wedding. These two were awesome and the wedding was just my kind of day. The evening ended with some amazing fireworks in the town of Bailey's Harbor.

These two are avid bikers. They rode a "small" 21 miler the morning of the wedding. Oh yeah, and they will be biking across Iowa for their honeymoon.


The gorgeous Christine


Love this candid of Christine.


If you live in Green Bay or the Fox Valley, you probably have relied on Bob to give you the local news. He is a news anchor for 26. He is super nice guy.


Honoring our independence day


Bob watching Christine head down the aisle.


The ceremony was overlooking Lake Michigan. Absolutely beautiful day.



A view of the boathouse which held the reception.


Loved, loved, loved the band. It was an amazing jazz band. I would highly recommend checking them out if you are in the market. The name is Jana Nyberg Group.


There was some dancing out on the porch of the boathouse. It was so cool to watch the sun go down while dancing listening to music.


Sweet


Some snuggling on the way to the fireworks on the trolley.


They had an area set up behind the Fishmarket and Grill in Bailey's to watch the fireworks. There was a great roaring bonfire with lots of s'more fixings.


What a great way to end a wedding celebration.
