This was one incredibly intense storm! And on February 1st, a few hours before the snow storm hit Milwaukee my husband and I ventured to the Lake. We witnessed some amazing waves, snow drifting, and felt 40MPH winds that seriously made my hands go numb. Before I couldn’t use my finger anymore to hit the shutter I captured these photos.
I wish I had some photographs to share of the actual blizzard in action, but I stayed in doors.
But, Some of the best images I have seen online can be seen here.
The Aftermath on our streets.
On our SnowDay some drift jumping took place!
Here is a little video that my hubby edited of them ‘drift jumping’.

A few days after the snow storm I went back to the Lake with Nick Cavalier to do some test shoots for a future video shoot that we will be doing for Brian Mackey. Here are some fun overly white snow shots that were taken today.
I am filled with anticipation and excitement for this site to go public. As it too would be a dream come true to photograph with Urban Outfitters Inc. and capture these femininely brilliant gowns for BHLDN. And I am sure other’s in the wedding industry are on the same page as me on that one. But, for now I will just appreciate these lovely images that show off how gorgeous this ‘new line’ is going to be.
Once the bake-goods were completed I begin to enjoy the snow outside and fun xmas gift wrapping. Which I will admit, I love to wrap presents! 
Once we left our house in Milwaukee it felt like we hadn’t returned till after the New Year. My husband and I started in Beloit (where my In-Laws live) and enjoyed their traditional tree decorating party. Which is a very special tradition that I have grown to love more than Christmas day with them. Had a pit stop in Chicago for our ‘Friends-Mas’ Christmas party that was hosted at Whitney and Dustin’s new apartment. And then back to Beloit for Christmas Day with the family.
After a lovely xmas morning (celebrated on NewYears Eve morning) at my Mom’s house we went to Philly to spend New Year’s Day in the city. Besides continuing my little obsession with taking photographs of Del we got the opportunity to enjoy the 
City Love experiences.
Monday, 3rd of January we met up with my Older Brother, Sister-in-Law and miss Del for one last meal with my Mom before our flight and said goodbye to the City of Brotherly Love until we return again.
So, I am leaving all of you with one last adorable photo and wishing all a Happy New Year that is filled with joy, love, adventure, and good health.
