Um…have you heard of CAMP WANDAWEGA?!?!? I caught an eye of this AMAZING place a few years ago and have been *yearning* to have a reason to visit (and shoot) there ever since! It’s an amazing 1950′s, retro-meets-lands-end style camp that looks like it belongs in the movie “Moonrise Kingdom”! :) It’s amazing!!!!! With a HUGE treehouse, many sleeping cabins, an old-school style tent area and perfectly curated vignettes all over the property! :) You MUST check it out if you find yourself in South Eastern Wisconsin anytime soon! :)

So when Laurie e-mailed me with these prefect visions of shooting her engagement session at Camp Wandawega, I was jumping up and down in my office! I mean, really….I was THAT excited! Because, really….Camp Wandawega plus Laurie and Jon was sure to be AMAZING! :) Laurie is a sweet, kind hearted, wonderful photographer in Milwaukee and her Jon is equally as adorable! Our entire time together, I was just in awe of how these two communicate and love one another…they are sweet. They are genuine and they are SO in love! I found my cheeks hurting behind my camera because *I* was smiling so much during our afternoon together. We chatted about upcoming wedding plans, her SUPER SUCCESSFUL wedding photography business and his hopes and dreams for being a awe-ing musician! :) These two….talent oozes from them, kindness pours from their heart and smiles just radiate on their faces….and you can SO tell how much they love one another! :)

I believe that a key to any good relationship is respect and unwavering support for one another (through twists and turns, hopes and dreams, successes, ideas, and adventures)…and man do these two GOT IT! :) I *CAN NOT* wait to photograph their wedding and stand by them as they become husband and wife next September! :)

Oh—and PS, I could’t contain their engagement session into just one blog post….more coming later this week! :) HAPPY MONDAY everyone! :)
