I almost feel like a bad Wisconsiner admitting this, but traveling to Door County for Kate + Phil’s classically gorgeous wedding was my first time there! Gasp!! It was even my first time meeting Kate + Phil in person, but they both emanate such an instant warmth it felt like I’d known them all along. And photographing them along the shores of Lake Michigan while listening to the pounding waves? Yes, perfection!! Kate + Phil, I still want to squeeze both of you…I’m sorry I could not come along to Belgium with you for honeymoon photos, but I had a blast with you stateside!!! :) (…And oh yes dear blog readers, that’s Door County cherry cobbler for dessert!)






























































































I must give a huge shout out to Carrie Baldwin Smith of Door County Events, who made the day happen seamlessly AND was so much fun to work with! Other details: Kate’s dress (complete with POCKETS!!)
