Kenosha Engagement Photography || Brittainy and Cory

12-09-2011

I met this wonderful couple through my bride Lisa from earlier this year. Turns out Brittainy (yes the spelling is correct ;-) ) is her hair stylist. The day we picked for the engagement session was a bit cold and overcast but we met in the downtown section of Kenosha by Library park. I wanted to use some space I hadn’t yet used this year. These two were really fun to work with and honestly admitted up front they didn’t know what to do in front of the camera. I think you can tell from the photos that they are naturals and it didn’t take them long to relax behind the camera and enjoy themselves. Just another reason why I include engagement sessions will all my collections. The more we understand each other now the easier it will be on the wedding day.

Here are some samples of their session. Congrats you two!

Kenosha Engagement Photography || Laura and Jared

08-10-2011

Wow, where has the summer gone? It’s nearly the middle of August and wedding season is in full swing. That, of course, would explain the lack of entries here. I try I really do. LOL. Rewind with me a bit to good old July 3rd. I got a chance to shoot a session for the wonderful Laura and Jared. The Kenosha Independence day parade was going on and it proved a great venue for the day. I must say Laura is the person to know in Kenosha. She knows everyone and it allowed us to have a lot more freedom as we shot. We started off on a parked trolley and then made our way through the downtown to the museum. These two are really fun to hang with, though I felt bad for Jared as he had a bit of a sprained ankle. He held in there though and helped to make some great images along with his lovely bride to be Laura. Enjoy the images from their day.

Kenosha Engagement Photography || Kasie and Tom

07-19-2011

Boom! Another great engagement session coming your way today. Kasie and Tom are two fun folks who are getting married this August. We met out at Petrifying Springs park for an impromptu couple of shots with Kasie’s immediate family who were in town. Some quick images later and we sent them packing. Since we were already at the park we started the engagement session there and then moved on to the wonders of downtown Kenosha. Tom is an avid motorcycle owner and wanted to show off his Harley so we found a nice dingy looking alleyway and shot away. We had a lot of fun and much to my wife’s ire I think I now want a motorcycle. LOL. Enjoy the set.

Kenosha Engagement Photography || Sarah and Aaron

07-17-2011

Wedding season is now in full swing and couldn’t be better. I still have a few engagement sessions to finish and thought I would share this one with you today. Sarah and Aaron are two wonderful people who are having their wedding in September of this year. They decided on an engagement shoot near the lake at the “cannon” park (they likely know the name though I always forget. Ask anyone in Kenosha where the cannon park is and they will know.) The day was pretty overcast and but that didn’t dim their spirits. The laughter was great and getting them to climb in a tree was a lot of fun. Then they made mention of wanting a shot with their two puppies (well more like dog and small horse ;) ), so Sarah called her dad and he made his way down with the duo. Nothing like having a Great Dane stand at chest height while you are trying to get everyone setup. LOL. With a lot of luck and a dog treat placed precariously above my head we got the shot. Here are some highlights from their day! Enjoy you two.

Kohler Engagement Photography || Megan and Adam

07-03-2011

A couple weeks back I got a chance to shoot the engagement session of a great couple in a new location. On a return trip from scouting a wedding location for their wedding in Green Bay, I found a great state park that I knew would be perfect for the shoot. Kohler-Andrae state park had everything I wanted. The dunes, the woods and the touch of fun that I knew Megan and Adam would appreciate. These two were great together and It didn’t take much directing at all to get them to nuzzle or give a kiss here and there. They are very much in love and it shows. A few times the kissing continued after the shots were finished. :)

Here are some great highlights from their day.

Racine Engagement Photography || Lisa and Eric

06-26-2011

Several weeks ago I had a chance to shoot the engagement session of a very fun and quirky couple. Lisa and Eric wanted to hang out in the wonderful downtown locale of Racine and do some shooting so I obliged with a smile on my face. I love the wonderful brickwork and urban feel of the place. These two were great to talk to as they are gamers like myself and caught all the subtle geek culture I tend to pepper into conversation. They are getting married in August in Lake Geneva and I can’t wait. Here is a sample of some of the great shots we came out with from that day. Congratulations again you two. See you again in August!
