Raising a glass to this wonderful couple - Emily & Tom! From day one you two have made us laugh! From the first time we met you at for your engagement photos, to your beautiful wedding we've enjoyed seeing you be goofy with each other, and we’re so honored to have captured the love and the laughs!
Yes this is us! I promise you we’re not so serious (Nor do I wear that much makeup on a daily).
Lots of new faces here so I thought it would be a good time for us to say hello!
Some details about us:
💕 Ricky is Panamanian, and his family still lives in Panama
💕 I’m white lol
💕 We’ll speak Spanish to each other if we don’t want the kids to know what we’re saying.
💕 Yes, we have 4 kids - we’re not sure how we got here
💕 One of our favorite dates was dancing to live music by Alex Rossi
💕 Ricky’s favorite drink is an old fashioned, I’m loyal to my Diet Coke.
If we haven’t met yet, we hope we get the opportunity to meet you soon! 😘😘

❤ Love this family!

As I was scrolling through my phone of 8,579 images, I scrolled past years worth of adventures, love stories and amazing moments in my career - and I realized,
“Wow, I have come so far from where I started!”
“You know, that really was a beautiful moment”
“I did good!”
If you’re looking at your current situation and feeling hopeless or unworthy, don’t forget to scroll back and remind yourself of all the amazing things you’ve accomplished along the way. Let that be your pick me up as you continue to grow during this challenging season in your life. Stay the course my friends!! STAY THE COURSE!!

Gosh I love blue….😍😍
A few pics and BTS from Michelle & Williams elopement on Madeline Island ⛴️ There are no words to express how awesome this experience was. For years I’ve had The Apostle Islands on my bucket list and I finally got to go! I will definitely be traveling back next year with the kiddos and hubs.

6 months and growing! Ruby is just a DOLL! Seeing Ruby wearing her mom's () hand knitted baby outfit is just priceless!
I met Marianne & Ryan at their cousins wedding that Ricky and I were shooting several years ago - it’s always a joy to stay connected with people, no matter how much time has passed. Can't wait for the 1 year birthday bash!

Jack & Jena ARE MARRIED!! Their wedding at the Van Dusen mansion was straight out of a fairytale!! These two are the absolute definition of joy- never was there a moment where they weren't smiling or laughing - apart from the moment during speeches where tears were shed, but even through the tears there were smiles. I couldn't have asked for a better day; it was everything and more!!

Traveling to Clara and Tanners home town of La Crosse this past fall and going to all of their favorites spots had me feeling like I was reading a love story: stepping into places that these two had shared some of their favorite moments together over the years. Ricky and I are so excited for their wedding this May on the bluffs of the river at their parents home in Afton - it’s going to be a gorgeous day celebrating these two!

I wanted to send these out rolled up into whiskey bottles, but maybe next year 🤪 Thank you to everyone that asked for a card and that sent us one! It has brought us so much joy!
Rewind to several months after we started dating, 2013. I found an old pile of film negatives and black and white prints and showed them to Ricky. I mentioned how much I missed photography, working in a dark room and how much I enjoyed working at the once known photography shop called ProEx. Ricky encouraged me to pick up a camera again - and like sunshine for a flower I sprung to life. Something in me just started putting the pieces together: I got a cheap camera kit, started taking pictures of family, scoured craigslist for opportunities to shadow a photographers at weddings, and just like that we started a business.
Engagement sessions, family portraits, high school graduation sessions, newborns, cake smashes, mud runs, business events, business headshots, weddings, weddings and weddings - I filled every weekend and every evening with appointments with potential clients, editing photos, doing sessions and being at events, all while raising our 3 children and working full-time. I was beyond busy!
Steadily our little family grew - now with 4 children, we are overjoyed with the laughter, mischief and sound of little feet scurrying across our 1911 hardwood maple floors. It is constant chaos in our home but I can tell you this: parenting gets easier after child #3. It’s not that bad, really. We’re still alive, right!? (SOS: please send help! Particularly help with laundry, dishes and house cleaning...)
We’re not just photographers or videographers - we are conquerors of addiction, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, financial uncertainty and so much more. We are here for all and have open arms regardless of where you are or what you believe in.
