Hello everyone,
Welcome to our first EVER blog post! We are excited to be bringing you some helpful (hopefully) Insight with these upcoming posts. Over the past 5+ years we have been photographing weddings and we have seen some stuff. We are going to keep these interesting, short, and to the point. So without further ado...

HALIE & ZACH

Now, if you live in our lovely state of Wisconsin you know that about 6 months of the year we are either covered with snow or shivering in freezing cold temperatures and the scenery will either be snowy or placidly barren. So if you are planning a wedding in the early months of the year here are five ways to ensure you get the most out of your photography. This will create many cherished memories that will last you a lifetime.

1. Make sure you have a warm and cozy environment to get ready in.

This will relax you and help set the tone for your day. Whatever you need to help you zen out is key. Your relaxed nature will carry over into the images.

2. Natural Light

Look for a venue with a generous amount of natural light. This will help lighten the mood making guests feel warm. Photography will be able to pick up softer tones than in a venue where heavy flash is necessary.

3. Be prepared

Be prepared to huddle. Bring blankets, hot pads, a little liquid courage. Taunt mother nature by wearing fur boots to keep those toes warm. Whatever it takes!

4. Go Outside

Love endures all things right? Well, even if you can't convince your wedding party to brave the cold. Make sure that you and your loved one step outside to have your photo taken. The images that will be captured are %110 worth it.
