Shannon + Travis {wedding}

Happy 2009 everyone! Zac and I kicked off our new year shooting the super-fun, super-cold wedding of Shannon and Travis. These two are winter-lovers through and through. They met while on ski patrol together at Rib Mountain, and appropriately, had their big day on a classic Wisconsin winter day. Despite the frigid temperatures (and the ice storm we drove home in!), we had a wonderful time!







Behind the scenes tending to details...




...all for the shot.


One of the perks of a winter wedding - the church was decorated for the holidays...












They braved the cold for a few amazing portraits -














A few details -


Zac caught this shot of Shannon getting bustled, and I absolutely love it -




Shannon and Travis's families were SO much fun! They are all winter lovers; very passionate skiiers and snowboarders. Shannon's dad kept talking about doing a "Schotzke."
It wasn't until I actually saw the Schotzke that I realized it was a Shot-ski!!!!








Zac's view of Travis, Shannon's dad Jeff, and Travis' nephew doing a Mountain Dew Shot-ski!








Shannon + Travis: Thank you both for having us be a part of your amazing day! What an awesome way to start the new year. Best wishes to you guys and to the beginning of your marriage...may it be happy, healthy, and WARM!! Carly
