SHELBY & RYAN - FAITH LUTHERAN CHURCH CEREMONY/HOLIDAY INN RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - FOND DU LAC, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

I really have the best bridal couples! I mean it!!

To date, Shelby is the most super prepared and organized bride I have ever had the pleasure photographing! At the same time, Shelby and Ryan were also completely laid back, fun and so easy to work with. 

Because all of that, I was able to capture lots of beautiful moments... from getting ready, to bridesmaids, to seeing her dad, to the ceremony and beyond... their day was filled with them!

Shelby's mismatched socks represented 'something borrowed and something blue.'

I love capturing sweet moments... and symmetry. This photo has both aspects :)

I don't think I have to say much about the next three photos... the bride with bridesmaids; with her father; and a moment ('corner shot') with her husband to-be.

Ryan and Shelby ventured out to the Lakeside Park... we had an exceptionally beautiful day (unlike the weather on their engagement session)

Fun Wisconsin Fact: A week before their wedding, we were knee-deep in snow aka Winter Storm Evelyn... but you wouldn't be able to tell that from these photos :)

I heart any and all conifers.

Not pictured in the next photograph: my assistant running down the dock making sure that sitting seagulls are scared enough to fly away... the result: a great photo (thank you, Rachel)!

Thank you, Shelby and Ryan, for making me a part of your beautiful wedding day. It was my pleasure photographing your family and friends, and especially you two. 

Dziekuje!

Kelsey & Ryan - Holiday Inn wedding ceremony and reception photographer - Appleton, WI

Although the rain interfered with Kelsey and Ryan's hope for an outdoor ceremony, it didn't dampen their big day. And, in the end, we had some warm sun rays... just in time for their outdoor photos.

Bridal bling...

A sweet moment...

Gorgeous indoor set up for their indoor ceremony at Holiday Inn in Appleton.

One of the biggest smiles I have ever seen on Ryan :)

Lutz Park was the backdrop for their bridal party portraits.
