What an amazing wedding day at Hawk's View Golf Club in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. First off, I'm a HUGE fan of log homes, though it's been several years since I thought about owning one. As we get older, get caught up in the madness of our daily lives, we tend to let some of our dreams fade away. Then I arrived at Hawk's View Golf Club, walked in the dining room, and was suddenly swept away. The expansive windows literally bring the outdoors, in. The heavy timber log posts and beams fill the room with so much warmth and character. Add this wedding's "vineyard theme" with rich colors and textures, and WOW! What a set up. On this particular chilly October wedding day, it was greatly needed; in the late morning we were tickled with a few snow flurries — Holy Freakin' cold. LOL But as the morning gave way to the early afternoon, we were blessed us with a wonderful golden sunlight; setting the stage for an absolutely gorgeous outdoor ceremony.

I've been around emotional weddings in this past, and this one is close to the top of the list. There were tears, hugs and laughter flowing at every moment of the day — and the toasts almost brought me to tears. I have to admit, many times I forget I'm a wedding photographer as I easily get caught up in moments such as these.

Much love and many blessings to Erica, Matt, their family and friends, for this unforgettable wedding day. :)
