Like most people, I think I have more day-to-day photos on my iphone than anywhere else. OK, that’s not true at all, I have thousands of day to day photos on my computer. BUT – the beauty of the iPhone photos is that you shoot and you’re done – no post-processing, no downloading to the…
Cora & Sylvain were married in New York City, in April. So what am I doing posting photos from a reception in Wisconsin in August? While they had a civil ceremony at the courthouse, Cora wanted to throw a big party in her home state over the summer. She found a fantastic venue in the…
Love how unique and vintage this wedding is. And, how much this post puts me in the mood for homemade jam. Yum.
Thanks so much Brit!
I love the history of the Poor Farm and it’s resurrection as an art space- FYI: A product of the nineteenth-century American Poor Farm System (a social establishment modeled after the English almshouses), the Waupaca County Poor Farm was erected in 1876. Historically county government–supported institutions, as an alternative to indentured labor these working farms were populated with the region’s destitute. Poor farm residents were assigned inmate status and required to work under strict conditions for minimal living accommodations. (The Poor Farm has a jail in the basement and a cemetery in the back cornfield, underscoring the social and economic complex encompassing the poor farm system.) When the Social Security Act was established in 1935, the American Poor Farm system went into decline and, ultimately, dissolution.
VERY VERY MORTELLE !

Hey, as I was looking through these again I noticed how you took Scarlett’s picture both in the styling chair and also in the mirror. How do you do the mirror thing without you showing in the picture? I really need to develop my photos. Love you!
I spent the last week or so in Northern Wisconsin, visiting with my parents and helping my best friend with her wedding prep. And attending a kickass wedding where I didn’t have to work AT ALL. It was actually difficult to not direct things but I managed to keep my mouth shut for the most…
I really love the grungy-ness of these photos. Most people wouldn’t even notice these scenes – but your photos knock them out of the park. Really inspirational. Thanks!
Nice random shots. Are you using a lensbaby or a tilt shift lens? Or the alternative of photoshop?
tilt shift – i’m too impatient for lensbabies.
