JEN & MATT - TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH CEREMONY AND MADISON MARRIOTT WEST RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - MADISON/MIDDLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

What a great couple for the end of this fall wedding season. Fun loving, funny, and super nice… couldn’t ask for anything more. Even better: Jen contacted me after seeing her cousin’s wedding photographs from FIVE years ago! What an honor!

Bridal bling….

A sweet moment between Jen and her mom :)

This right here… I’m just going to let you look and laugh… I had such a great time with this group.

Drove past this ivy covered wall… had to stop to take some photos.

To me, this is where bridal photos in front of the capitol should be taken.

Yup! :)

The reception took place at the Madison Marriott West.

I do

Bucky made a surprise appearance… Jen planned this for Matt and kept it a secret for a whole year!

Thank you, Jen and Matt, for making me a part of your wonderful wedding day!

Dziekuje!

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.

VERONICA & DAVID - BLUE HARBOR AND ROAD AMERICA WEDDING CEREMONY AND RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

Veronica and DJ’s wedding was the best way I could ever hope to start any wedding season.

Veronica and DJ got ready at the Blue Harbor Resort in Sheboygan.

Lucking out on the beautiful weather, Veronica wanted to make sure we took full advantage of the great location… and, so did !!

One of the funnest mother-son duos.

Vern and DJ decided to not only do the first look but also to exchange letters beforehand.

First look…

After getting ready at Blue Harbor, we headed to Road America for the wedding celebrations.

ROSIE!!!

One of my all-time favorite photos of father and daughter (look at their hands).

(insert heart emoji…. times five :)) PS. No, it’s not a typo, just loving this image so much.

I have at least one pic per a wedding of a groom checking the tightness of the ring ;-)

Purple and sparkly beer.

Again, just need to keep inserting heart emojis!

Road America’s grounds did not disappoint… such a well done race track.

Beautiful details… Florals from Feisty Flowers and Better Sweet Bakery.

At the end of the day, V&DJ, made a lap on the world famous Road America race track… all of the 14 turns on four mile road!

Thank you, Veronica and David, for making me a part of your wonderful day. It’s been my pleasure to document your beautiful relationship, your family and friends, and the effort you have put into your big day.

LAURA & NATE - THE WATERS OF MINOCQUA CEREMONY AND RECEPTION - APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

I met Laura four years ago while photographing her brother’s wedding. So it’s needless to say I was very honored, when she reached out to me about her own wedding. It was so great to see the M family again!

Laura and Nate’s wedding ceremony and reception took place at her family’s vacation spot - The Waters of Minocqua. The eighty-two degree weather was highly unusual for this time of year and location, but that didn’t disheartened anyone from having an awesome time!

Bridal bling…

So glad I was able to capture this lovely moments of Laura and her parents.

The reaction from bride’s friends was great but nothing was better than Laura seeing herself for the first time.

The ‘first look’ photos at the arcade room.

Love this so much…

Laura and Nate are great parents to their two year old.

The father of the flower girl had way too much fun :)

A moment before giving his daughter’s hand away in marriage.

The fun loving bridal party!

Gorgeous bride (doesn’t she resemble her mom in this photo?)

Thank you, Laura and Nate, for making me a part of your special day. It was great seeing everyone again and I’m kind of sad that Mr. and Mrs. M (Laura’s parents) ran out of their lovely children for me to photograph. :)

Dziekuje

PS. And, thank you, Kara (and Jake) for being some of my greatest advocates!

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!
