Colleen & Micah met in high school in Madison, WI. They spent a few years apart before they ended up in Chicago, and now they are getting married later this year. Madison made a great backdrop for their engagement photos, and now I am even more excited to photograph their wedding later.
When Katherine and Ben were planning their wedding, they thought about all the places in Madison where they wanted to take their wedding photos. But they couldn’t think of a wedding venue that suited their personalities, so they decided to go to all their favorite places in Madison for engagement photos, and have their wedding in the Wisconsin Dells. Since we had a long list of places to go (Bascom Hill, Memorial Union, State Street, Capitol, Monona Terrace) I was very happy that we had such a perfect spring day in Madison for photos.
Katherine & Ben are getting married in 2011, but we had an amazing engagement shoot all around downtown Madison. Here is a little preview while I edit the rest of the session.
Not only is Carrie one of my best friends, but her marriage to Pete was the first wedding I ever photographed. I totally loved being a wedding photographer – the blend of candid and posed, the ability to use my creativity and also my people skills. It was awesome.
Now, almost 6 years later, they are expecting their first baby. I love shooting in the Madison Capitol, and it is even more interesting because Pete will be clerking there next year, and I am sure that Carrie and the baby will spend many lunches and late night dinners in those marble halls!
If you are planning your wedding, especially if you are in Madison, I recommend checking out WisconsinWed.Blogspot.Com where you will see some practical musings about wedding planning as Rebecca goes through the stages of planning. She also had a wonderful write up of her experience with me when I took their engagement photos at the Farmers Market.
Last fall, I had a great time taking photos of Rebecca and Andrew at the Dane County Farmer’s Market in Madison as part of my Portraits with a Heart fundraising sessions. Rebecca & Andrew wanted something more casual and a little different, and so playing around at the farmers market was perfect (plus, I ended up with a pumpkin, some goat cheese, and some honey!).
The days may be shorter, but the light is better than ever in St Paul in wintertime.
