Nicole and Johannes' Christmas Wedding

My last wedding of the year was so great! I was lucky enough to spend it with Nicole and Johannes who are one of the nicest couples I've worked with all year. And I've met some really great couples, so that's a huge compliment. :)

Anyway, the morning of their wedding I headed over to Wisconsin Dells. We did some formal pictures of the guys and girls separately at Great Wolf Lodge, then headed over to Spring Brook for their ceremony. Since the ceremony and dinner were family and just a few close friends, it was a small, intimate group. They were all very fun and easy to work with, that's for sure!

Because of the snow storm that day (err, blizzard) we weren't able to head over to the River Walk for their couple's session.  But we did get some nice pictures outside their venue.  

Anyway, here are my favorite two pictures of the day.

And the preview:  (the rest are coming next week!)

2009 Update and Bridal Expo

Hello everyone! I haven't posted in a few days, so I just wanted to give you all the updates on Studio Noveau!

January 11th is the Bridal Expo in La Crosse, so feel free to stop by my booth if you'll be there. Also, if any of you need tickets, just email me your address and I'll drop some in the mail for you. I have LOTS of tickets to give away!

Right now I am about 50% booked for weddings in 2009. May, June, and August are completely full, with many other months pretty close to booked. So don't wait long to contact me about your date if you haven't already done so! If last year is any indication, the rest of my open dates will probably fill pretty quickly. :)

I'll be posting the preview for Nicole and Johannes' wedding next week, so make sure to stop by for that!

Stacey and Greg's fabulous fall wedding

Recently I headed up to La Crosse for the wedding of Stacey and Greg. They were married in La Crosse with their reception at the Midway Best Western along the Mississippi River. They had some gorgeous fall details in their wedding!

Some of my favorites:






Stacey and Greg, congratulations! Thanks for letting me be there on your wedding day. It was great getting to know you and your families. Oh, and speaking of family... from what I hear, Greg's youngest brother, Geoff, is single, employed, and looking for a nice young woman. :) If anybody reading this is interested... let me know and I'll see what I can do! This is Geoff:



Lastly, Stacey and Greg, here is your official preview. When the rest of your images are finished and posted in your proofing gallery, I'll let you know right away!

Fun tool for wedding plannning

Hi Everyone,

I thought I'd share a fun website I found a few days ago. It sure would have been nice to know about this when I was trying to figure out how to wear my hair for my wedding! If you have a few minutes, try giving yourself a makeover! They allow you to change hair color, style, apply makeup, whiten teeth, and more. They even have sample updos! :) Cool, huh?

The last couple weeks I've been debating making the change from blonde to brunette, and cutting my hair shorter. So here's my before and after, courtesy of ivillage.com:
