Wisconsin Couple Photographer

Engagement Photography | Andrea + Jon | Lake Vista Park | Oak Creek, WI by Emily Hilleshiem

When I first met with Andrea + Jon, I was excited that they wanted to incorporate their dogs into their engagement photos. I became even more excited when Andrea later emailed me asking if we could also include their cat and bunny. The more furbabies the merrier!!! What I was not prepared for was how perfectly all their furbabies coordinated. You’ll have to take a look to see what I mean!
What a sweet life these two are building together with their furbabies. However, the love they have for their animals doesn’t compare to the love they have for one another. Their mutual love and respect for one another is simply undeniable.
Andrea has such a caring heart and Jon finds joy in both making her laugh and roll her eyes. Their wedding day in September is going to have so many delightful moments and I cannot wait to capture them all!

Engagement Photography | Britani + Ethan | Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary Mequon, WI | Village Park Thiensville, WI by Emily Hilleshiem

I’ve known Ethan since high school, so when he reached out to ask me about photographing his wedding I was really touched. Ethan and Britani are currently doing the long distance thing while they each finish up school, so coordinating schedules for their engagement session took a little time, but oh was it worth the wait! Britani is simply the sweetest! She has stunningly beautiful eyes and a smile to match. Ethan knows just what to say to make her nose crinkle and her smile beam. Sure it was a little chilly, but it didn’t seem to bother them. They were just happy to be with each other. I also must tell you, that the more details Britani shares about their upcoming summer wedding, the more excited I get! Trust me friends, you won’t want to miss their wedding post! Until then, here are some Winter photos that are sure to warm your heart and hopefully bring a smile to your face too.

Engagement Photography | Katherine + Mike | Covered Bridge Park | Cedarburg, WI by Emily Hilleshiem

What better way to welcome the return of Autumn than with an incredible couple!?! I personally cannot think of a better way. It’s no secret that this is my favorite time of year. Nothing beats the beautiful golden light, so I knew we had to incorporate that into Katherine & Mike’s engagement pictures! Let me tell you, these two are a great match! And you better believe my heart swelled when Mike made a comment that she wasn’t smiling with her real smile. “With her real smile, she smiles with her eyes.” Sure enough when he coaxed it out of her, she truly shined! I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next summer! In the meantime, please enjoy their engagement session preview!
