The F Family [University of Madison Arboretum, Madison, Wisconsin Family Photographer]

This was the second year for spring sessions in Madison, Wisconsin and it was so great to see the F family again! Seriously, how beautiful was the UW Arboretum with all of it's beautiful blossoms? Kira and Seiji just get cuter every year, and had fun twirling and running through the gardens. And ohhh, that beautiful golden hour light! Ever wonder why your photographer has you waiting to do your session until the evening? This light is why!! It's so soft and beautiful, ahh I could go on all day (but I won't).

The C Family [Scottsdale, AZ Family Photographer]

This family was one of my lovely Arizona sessions this past spring, and I just fell in love with the location and these guys were all SO incredibly sweet. The best part of traveling is meeting all kinds of new people, and of course getting inspired by the change in scenery. Here are some of my favorites!

Alex + Ginny [Emily's Ten Oaks Ranch, Madison Wisconsin Intimate Wedding Photographer]

Where do I even begin with these two? Alex and Ginny's intimate Emily's Ten Oaks Ranch wedding was amazing! It was intimate, personal, and really showcased the most important thing on a wedding day - love and relationships. The day started off with an intimate ceremony with all of their closest friends and family, followed by portrait time around Emily's Ten Oaks Ranch where they have horses, goats, pot bellied pigs, a buffalo, and...KANGAROOS. (Guys, I did not know how insane I was about kangaroos, but you learn something new everyday right?!)

After portraits, they launched into cocktail hour which was enhanced by music from Sortin' The Mail, followed by the most insanely delicious tacos that I've EVER had, and then an open mic hour. This was AWESOME you guys! It started off with Alex and Ginny singing "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" which of course, they crushed. It was just such a cool way to start off an hour of people sharing musically (they have some seriously talented friends!) and toasts. After that, the Otis Redding & James Brown cover band rocked the barn. Honestly, it was such a gorgeous, awesome day - I wish I could go back and photograph it all again! It was such an honor to document the love these two ladies have for each other.
