KRISTEN & JARED - SMALL WEDDING CEREMONY - APPLETON WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

These two lovely people decided to marry in a super small ceremony. Kristen’s brother walked her down the aisle where she was met by both her husband to-be and dad (who presided over the ceremony).

Bridal bling…

Had extra time with Jared

Some had a hard time (but still looking cute as a ring bearer), but overall, the excitement was in the air.

The wedding ceremony was originally scheduled to take place in the Green Bay area, but due to COVID, it had to be relocated to Kristen’s hometown. The University of Northern Illinois in DeKalb campus became the background for their portrait session. The yellow trees created beautiful contrast to navy details.

Thank you, Kristen and Jarod, for having me document your beautiful wedding day. Cannot wait to celebrate with you yet again next year!

Dziekuje.

SARAH & NICK - ST. ROBERT'S PARISH CEREMONY AND MARCUS PERFORMING ARTS CENTER RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - MILWAUKEE, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

Competitive, caring, and sweet… Sarah and Nick make a perfect couple. Those two great individuals exchanged ‘I do’s’ surrounded by their loving family and great friends. It was a great wedding day!

Bridal bling…

So many hugs, tears of joy, and laughter.

So grateful I was able to capture this great moment between Nick’s parents.

Beautiful old church.

Blessing of the wedding couple.

The gentlemen.

The ladies.

There were so many great spots to photograph at Atwater Park.

Sweet, sweet moment!

The reception was held at Marcus Performing Arts Center.

Grand march…

Special details

Thank you, Sarah and Nick, for having me document your beautiful wedding day.

CHEYENNE & ERIC - ST. PATRICK CATHOLIC CHURCH CEREMONY AND GRAND MERIDIAN RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - MENASHA AND APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

Cheyenne and Eric’s wedding day was filled with laughter, happy tears and love. Lots and lots of love! You could feel the love everywhere you looked… their parents, siblings, friends.

This was my second VLB wedding. I have met Mr. and Mrs. VLB six years ago when photographing their daughter’s wedding.

The bride seeing herself for the first time on her wedding day.

A quick symmetrical photograph before leaving to Peabody Park for bridal portraits.

The reception took place at the Grand Meridian in Appleton.

Thank you, Cheyenne and Eric, for making me a part of your wedding. It is an honor to be able to photograph another VLB couple! It was lovely to see Eric’s family again and getting to know Cheyenne’s family and friends.

Dziekuje!

RACHAEL & JASON - ST. JOHN SACRED HEART PARISH CEREMONY & BRIDGEWOOD RESORT HOTEL RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - SHERWOOD AND NEENAH, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

I met Rachael and Jason for the first time just four days before their wedding day... and they are absolutely awesome! Fun, funny, totally in love with each other, in other words, an ideal couple! And, let's not forget to mention their family and friends!

Each wedding I try to come up with a 'different' way of photographing wedding details. St. John Sacred Heart Church has beautiful windows... I used them as the backdrops. 

Rachael seeing herself in the mirror for the first time :)

A sweet moment with parents and her sisters.

Rachael and Jason wanted to do a 'corner shot.' That's when the couple are in the same room, but choose not to see each other. The bridal room didn't have any good corners ;) so I had to get creative and use closet doors as the divider.

Adorable flower girl!

I have been photographing weddings for thirteen years and this is the first time when the bride and the groom sat in two different aisles. Although a little bit different, it created a different point of view during the ceremony.

This sums it up... I love this photograph!

The bridal party took a short drive to High Cliff State Park in Sherwood. The portraits turned out beautifully. 

It's their college tradition...

The reception took place at the Bridgewood Resort Hotel. From vintage cake topper to flowers from Phase2 Floral to the music band, The Presidents... it was a perfect night!

Thank you, Rachael and Jason, for making me a part of your wedding day. It was perfect!

Dziekuje!

BARBARA AND ALEC - SAINT MONICA PARISH CEREMONY PHOTOGRAPHER - WHITEFISH BAY, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

Barbara contacted me about six weeks before her wedding. She said she would like me to photograph the ceremony and portraits afterward... and if I were willing to travel to Milwaukee. We spoke on the phone two times and she settled on meeting me for the first time on the day of her wedding. I couldn't stress more how awesome Barbara and Alec are. They make a great couple and a lovely family!

Bridal details...

If I were to tell you that this photo was taken in the church basement, you wouldn't believe me, would you? St. Monica Catholic Church in Whitefish Bay (near Milwaukee) has the best church basement I have ever seen!

A sweet moment with her daughter. 

Lovely bride with her as much lovely mom. 

Just look at Barbara's daughter's expression. The best bride reveal photo. ever.

A first look...

Right before ceremony, Barbara's parents welcomed Alec's parents... it was a very nice moment. 

Sibling pic :)

Barbara and Alec decided on walking in together to the ceremony. I just love how Barbara's face lights up when she looks at her groom (in every photo!). 

The blessing of the rings.

I usually don't photograph Communion during any Mass, but due to the size of the side chapel, I was able to capture this moment. 

Mr. and Mrs. 

Thank you, Barbara and Alec, for making me a part of your beautiful wedding ceremony. It was one of the most intimate and spiritual ceremonies I had pleasure photographing. 

Dziekuje.
