“I am yours, now and always. Wouldn't dream to be anything more. You take my breath away every night, still can't believe it when you say your mine and I am yours, I am yours, I am yours” - Andy Grammer

I so wish you could have all been a fly on the wall at the wedding on Saturday so you could have seen the enormous amount of love Madi and John share, heard Madi’s adorable laugh, and smelled the amazing cupcakes! Zach and I felt right at home and fit right in amongst all their family! As this wedding season is winding down I am cherishing all of these moments with all of my amazing couples!

Saturday may have been a tad chilly but we made up for it in so many other ways! Madi had the most beautiful dress and I am in love with the colors they picked out for their bridal party! The ceremony and reception both took place at Memories Ballroom which was beautifully decorated for Fall! We braved the cold and captured portraits downtown Port Washington and actually didn’t have to fend off too much traffic to take a few portraits in the road! All in all, it was a beautiful day and each moment was just as perfect as the next!

Thank you Madi and John for the honor of capturing your big day! Zach and I had a fabulous day and enjoyed each and every moment! Congratulations!

What. A. Weekend!
Heading into Saturday I knew Amber and Ryan’s wedding was going to be amazing but I didn’t know just how amazing until going through all of their pictures and selecting a few for this blog post!

I met Amber and Ryan two years ago at another Emile Portraits bride’s wedding and when Amber reached out asking if I was available to shoot their day I was beyond honored! The two of them are really a match made in heaven and their wedding was a great reflection of that!

All of the wedding events took place at Round Lake Farms on Saturday! It was a beautiful venue and it photographed so effortlessly! The weather was perfect for the outdoor ceremony and ensured that no one was sweating or too cold during the pictures. Truly a lovely Fall day!

Inside the venue was just as gorgeous as outside. Dinner was delicious and the tables and decorations added the elegant setting complete with a fire in the fireplace at the head table! The dance floor was promptly packed from the moment the music began and was still going strong when we left!

Amber and Ryan thank you so much for the honor of being your wedding photographers. Zach and I enjoyed every minute and wish you nothing but the best as you begin your new life together as Mr. & Mrs. Vogds!
