Brooke & Matt are joy incarnate. Their friends adore them, their parents practically beam when looking at them, and the two of them are hearts-on-the-sleeve-dance-like-no-one-is-watching kind of people. And man oh man, a wedding day filled with that kind of delight and love is exactly what a photographer needs to fill the proverbial tank and stay grounded in the moment on a wedding day. Theirs was an uncharacteristically stormy summer day but we made the most of our dry minutes and they got to see one another for the first time on the roof of Hotel Metro and take in Lake Michigan views with their wedding party. Even when the sun declined to shine outside they brought the summer air in with them via a design by Jane Kelly Floral that managed to make The Milwaukee Art Museum even more gorgeous. You’ll have to forgive how many detail shots there are in this post, but seriously, every delicious bluebell, sneak peek of Brooke’s sky high heels, and focus on the texture and pattern of the day just breathes life into my soul so let’s go with it. In the end our collective reward is one of the most beautiful stormy sunset sessions we’ve ever photographed and the happiest dancing grandpa you ever did see.
