I met Ben & Michelle at one of my favorite parks in the Madison area, Indian Lake County Park, for their engagement session. They were hoping for some fall color for their photos and we certainly got it! All night long, we kept commenting on how PERFECT of an evening it was. The sun was shining, it was warm, and everywhere you looked was a beautiful view of fall in Wisconsin. The night also ended with an extraordinary sunset and we decided it was certainly a good omen for their upcoming wedding day and future marriage : ) All this to say, consider this is your sign to go for a hike at Indian Lake before it’s too late!

Ben and Michelle met on an airplane — yes, it IS like a love story out of a movie! A random flight, on a normal day, where their respective tickets placed them in seats next to one another, forever changed the course of both of their lives. AND, even though their favorite football teams are rivals, love trumps all for these two ; )

Next year, Ben & Michelle will welcome their family and friends to the place they now call home — Madison, Wisconsin! We are looking forward to their summer wedding at The Edgewater Hotel with Cherry Blossom Events. With their shared love and the bubbly energy that just flows from Michelle, I have no doubt it’s going to be one heck of a celebration! Until then, enjoy a few favorites from our recent time together!
