{ Elyse + Kyle = MARRIED! }

I can't even express how much we love winter weddings, and Elyse and Kyle's big day was exceptional.  The day before their nuptials we got the perfect dusting of snow, just enough to make the world look fresh and new - such a beautiful sign for two people starting their lives together.  The day couldn't have been any more perfect: a traditional Catholic ceremony with heartfelt vows, a wedding gown that all little girls dream of, and a reception with all the small details attended to (including a hot cocoa bar to warm up chilly guests and photographers).

It takes a daring couple to plan a winter wedding in the midwest, where the day could bring rain, sleet or snow topped off with high winds and low temps.  Elyse and Kyle were up for the risk and found an equally brave wedding party to go on that adventure with them.  Their choice gave us an amazing opportunity for stunning photos that we couldn't have even dreamed up.

Sometimes two people are so obviously right for each other and such is the case with this couple; they are both so down-to-earth, empathetic and kind...two people who deserve each other.  It was such a pleasure to be a part of their big day.  Congratulations, Elyse and Kyle!
