destination winter wedding in milwaukee (erin + darko are married!) – photojournalistic wedding photographers

April 16, 2015

 

It’s not every day that we get to shoot [or blog] a winter wedding covered in snow.  In fact, in our 5+ years of shooting, this might be the only one.  It takes a brave pair of souls to get married when the weather is so unpredictable, the temperatures might be inhumane, oh, and the sun goes down at 4pm, which complicates your day-of timeline just a bit.

Enter: Erin + Darko.  [Coolest name ever, yes?  Visions of Jake Gyllenhaal danced in my head when I first read it in Erin’s first email.  Just quietly nod if you got the same mental picture.  Yes, I see you there, thank you.]  Not only did these two get married Christmas week, but they had a destination wedding in Milwaukee, which is the city they were living in when they met as they worked with Teach For America.

Erin + Darko are the kind of people that literally make this world a better place.  From Darko’s heroic journey to America as a refuge to their shared vision for youth + education, we’ve been so inspired to know these two and get to capture this season of their story together.  We’re thrilled to share a few frames from their celebrations a lil while back.  xo
