SELENA & NICK - COUNTRY CHAPEL CEREMONY AND NEENAH HILTON RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

On the day of her wedding, Selena saved her true smiles for Nick. Whenever he looked at her, a smile would light up her whole face. It was incredible to watch.

Bridal bling…

Sweet moments - there were so many of them on this rainy wedding day.

Since both, groom and bride, are shy, they decided to read their personal vows to each other in private.

Ceremony location was questioned all morning: Indoor. Outdoor. Indoor. And, again, outdoor. No, indoor that is! So many guests were packed into the indoor chapel creating a very cosy and intimate ceremony!

Marriage license signing.

Beautiful florals from Twig & Vine.

The reception took place at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Neenah.

The best dog… too bad the pup had to stay home!

Thank you, Selena and Nick, for making me a part of your beautiful wedding day.

Dziekuje.

This golf loving couple tied the knot on one of the hottest days this wedding season. But, looking at the photos, the only thing one can see is love… and lots of it!

A sweet moment with dad and mom.

The groom with his parents. Fun fact: Ryan’s dad was also his best man!

The first look was one of the sweetest moments I have photographed in a long time :)

The ceremony took place at the New Hope Lutheran Church in Appleton.

We sought shelter from the heat at Plamann Park.

Gorgeous wedding dress detail.

LISA & NICK - TRYBA'S SIMPLY COUNTRY BARN WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

There is nothing better than photographing a super nice couple at a cool venue. When I met Lisa and Nick, I knew I would love to be their photographer! And, once they had mentioned Tryba's Country Barn, I knew it would be a great wedding.

Loved Lisa's bridal details... so well paired with the country wedding theme.

Something old, something blue, and something borrowed.

Asymmetrical symmetry...

The groom, the details, the chicken coop... 

Lisa and Nick opted for the 'corner' shot.

I have photographed at Tryba's before and I have say the owners spend a great deal time and money on the landscape... all the bushes and full grown trees!

Beautiful wedding set up in the barn... 

We chased the sunset.

Nick is a firefighter and he surprised Lisa with a dance (during the garter removal).

Thank you, Lisa and Nick, for making me a part of your lovely wedding. I'm glad you married in the barn ;) I loved every moment of it!

Thank you.

Dziekuje!

ANNIE & KEELAN - JAMES J. HILL CENTER WEDDING CEREMONY & RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - ST. PAUL, MN

I first met Annie and Keelan in May 2016 when Keelan was the best man at Chris and Danielle's wedding. A few months later, they contacted me to see if I would be available to photograph their wedding. Even though the celebration was scheduled in St. Paul in December, there was no hesitation on my part. My answer was yes! Keelan was a great best man, Annie was super sweet, so I knew that we would be a great couple/photographer match. 

And, oh, my! How l love their wedding... Annie and her mom, did a great job with the planning... to the very last little detail. And, they both are such delightful ladies. 

But, don't take my word for it... just take a look at the beautiful photographs...  

Annie was getting ready at The St. Paul Hotel... old world charm in every room, even in the hallways.

Bridal details... the dress was amazing: lace with a hint of blush pink in the underskirt (disclaimer: the stole was made out of synthetic material).

Annie with her mom. 

Groom's details. Keelan prepared for the ceremony in one of the smaller rooms at the James J. Hill Center. 

I photographed their first look in one of the library balconies.

I tried to have them be as sheltered from the wind as possible but I cannot believe how brave these people were... we are talking about 30 degree weather with wind chill. The result... beautiful photographs set against the white marble of the library.

At dusk, Rice Park was lit up by thousands of Christmas lights...

Annie's flowers were beautiful... so beautiful in fact, that she did not dare to take them outside. 

The ceremony was officiated by their close friend. She did a great job. And the couple's vows... well, I had tears in my eyes (and possibly a few blurry pictures).

The BEST ceremony photo I have ever taken.

Awesome bridal party... I still remember all their names ;)

Annie surprised Keelan with Star Wars groom's cake.

Elegant table details.

Many great speeches (and a few tears) took place at this wedding.

To the last detail, this wedding put an exquisite end to my 2017 wedding season!

Thank you, Annie and Keelan, for making me a part of your beautiful wedding celebration!

Dziekuje!
