And Baby Makes 5...

2011-06-07T14:16:00.007-05:00

It's amazing what a little one of these can do to a momma and her free time to update her blog. :) Baby Nolan joined our family a few months ago and it's been a whirlwind of re-learning how to manage things around here now that we are a family of 5. Thanks for hanging in there with me while I work to slowly catch up on updating the AFP blog. Happy summer!!

Jessa and Jeremy chose a beautiful outdoor garden for their ceremony that proved to be simply breathtaking. Coupled with the gorgeous weather that day, and a combination of carefully chosen details to accent it all (Jessa incorporated some lovely things from etsy.com that I just LOVED), the entire day was filled with special moments. Thank you, Jessa and Jeremy, for choosing me to capture some of them. All the best to you both!

Another happy couple, and another beautiful wedding. Congratulations to both of you, Becky and Donny! It was a pleasure working with you!

[ Anne + Andrew ]

2010-08-27T15:57:00.013-05:00

Andrew and Anne were married at the beautiful Allen Centennial Gardens in Madison. The weather was just gorgeous and so was the location! And from the rainbow of colors displayed throughout the gardens, to the beautiful tapestries the couple incorporated from their recent travels to India, this wedding was simply breathtaking. Congratulations to the the happy (and adventurous!) couple!

[ Lindsay + Chris ] engagement

2010-08-27T15:17:00.001-05:00

The setting for this engagement shoot was Chris' grandfather's old mill. Talk about a fabulous location! And with the addition of Lindsay and Chris's darling pooch, it made for a truly unique engagement session. Can't wait for their beautiful fall wedding coming up in a couple months!

[ Danielle + Tony ] engagement

2010-08-15T15:40:00.002-05:00

Danielle and Tony are planning a wintry white January wedding, so it was great to get these outdoor shots for their engagement session. It was an unusually hot day, but that didn't stop us from hitting up lots of fun locations and capturing some great images. These two were naturals in front of the camera and I'm looking forward to their wedding in 2011!

My poor blog has been on life support so far this season. If you follow AFP on facebook {check us out here}, you've probably been able to keep up with my most recent work. But for the rest of you, you may be wondering, "What's the deal, AFP? No weddings this season?".

It's definitely not a lack of images that has kept this little blog silent for the past couple months. I am, however, expecting another little bundle in December and trimester #1 left me feeling crumby, to say the least, forcing tasks such as "updating the AFP blog" to be put on hold until this mama was feeling more like herself. But, now that I'm well into trimester #2 and have been feeling much better, it's time to catch up and post a few of my recent sessions here on the blog.

Here's a recent wedding to get things rolling . . .

Jamie and Chris' ceremony was beautifully intimate, taking place at Jamie's parent's home. Although it was a chilly, early spring day, we were able to capture some beautiful shots around downtown Wausau. It isn't hard to see that these two are truly in love . . .

[ Kimberly + Nathan ]

2010-03-01T06:46:00.009-06:00

Kimberly and Nathan planned a beautiful wedding, to the last detail. And although the temperatures were a tad on the chilly side, the outdoor ceremony was as lovely as could be (and I have to say that Kimberly was a trooper for all of the photographs, despite the frigid weather.) Congratulations, Kimberly and Nathan!

[ Melissa + Art ]

2009-12-01T01:56:00.001-06:00

Simple elegance was woven all throughout Melissa and Art's wedding day. The lovely, historic First Lutheran Church in Middleton, WI where they exchanged vows set the perfect mood for the entire day. My favorite DIY touch was the gorgeous vintage cut glass that Melissa collected for her florist to use in their table arrangements. Brilliant! Best wishes to both of you, Melissa and Art.

[ Amy + Dave ]

2009-11-09T23:26:00.000-06:00

Amy and Dave's wedding day was simply beautiful. From their ceremony, which took place within the historic walls of the Capital, to all of the special touches displayed throughout the rest of the day. It was an honor to be there, capturing their special moments with my camera. Congratulations!

[ Erin + Seth ]

2009-10-25T22:51:00.009-05:00

Another wedding in the family! My brother-in-law, Seth, was married to Erin at the Sunrise Amphitheater overlooking Boulder, Colorado. So, naturally, I hopped a plane with my camera equipment, anxious to capture their wedding story in the middle of the beautiful Rocky Mountains. The backdrop was breathtaking, and although we fought rain and frigid temperatures, the day was beautiful, filled with moments that I will never forget. Love to both of you, Seth and Erin!

[ Lynn + Pete ]

2009-10-06T02:22:00.011-05:00

Lynn and Pete had a simply gorgeous wedding, from start to finish. And despite being denied entrance into the Olbrich Gardens (even with a prior reservation!), we still ended up getting some beautiful photos. Best wishes to you, Pete and Lynn!

[ Stephanie + Dustin ]

2009-09-21T22:57:00.009-05:00

I started getting excited about Stephanie and Dustin's wedding when Stephanie told me that we were going to be making a stop at a 100 year old oak tree for pictures! Both of them are such genuinely kind and caring people, and their love for each other was reflected throughout their wedding day. Best wishes to both of you, Dustin and Stephanie!

[ Jana + Kevin ]

2009-09-09T15:41:00.008-05:00

Another beautiful sunny day for a beautiful wedding. Jana and Kevin were so easy to photograph and had wonderful chemistry between them. And for those of you who are wondering, Jana's eye color is all natural . . . amazing! Congrats, Jana and Kevin!

[ Sara + Mike ]

2009-07-08T15:48:00.003-05:00

This was a particularly special wedding for me to photograph because Mike is my little brother (sorry, Mikey, you'll always be little to me . . .). Aside from that fact, though, there were plenty of other things about it that made this wedding unforgettable . . . from the beautiful planting ceremony, to the gorgeously creative table decor, to the locally made ice cream they served in lieu of cake, these two put their heart and soul into every part of their day. Sara and Mike have one of the most true and unselfish relationships that I've ever witnessed. And their love spills over tremendously onto everyone around them. Sara and Mike, I love you both dearly and wish you every bit of happiness that you can squeeze out of life! :)

[ Kallie + Erik ]

2009-06-26T11:56:00.001-05:00

I had the pleasure of photographing Kallie and Erik last weekend on what couldn't have been a more beautiful June day. Everything about their wedding was lovely and their love for each other was more than evident. Such a sweet couple . . .

[ Jana + Kevin ] Engagement

2009-06-15T22:28:00.000-05:00

I had the pleasure of photographing Jana and Kevin earlier this month for an engagement session. We spent a sunny Sunday afternoon visiting different locations around Oshkosh, and enjoying the beautiful weather. We're crossing our fingers for another lovely day for their wedding this August.

[ Brenda + Eric ]

2009-06-13T12:43:00.002-05:00

Brenda and Eric were married at The Waters, located on the shores of Lake Winnebago. This newly renovated and restored venue provided the perfect backdrop for their intimate ceremony, overlooking the water. Afterward, Copper Box was there to rock the house! Brenda, and Eric, you planned an outstanding wedding, from start to finish. Best wishes to both of you!

[ Kaydence ] 3 Months

2009-06-01T23:21:00.000-05:00

Kaydence's Mama and I have been good friends for a long time. So, this 3 month photo session for Kaydence doubled as a wonderful visit with a dear friend as well. Even though we couldn't get a single smile out of this little peanut, I think her precious personality was captured nonetheless. She is just beautiful . . . in every way (and so is her Mama!).

FINALLY!

2009-05-30T11:28:00.000-05:00

Amy Fiedler Photography has finally joined the rest of the photography world and has added a blog! To all of my clients and colleagues who have been waiting so patiently for this to happen, I want to say, "thank you"!

We all know that a blog post is no fun without an image, so I've posted one of my two beautiful daughters. As their proud Mama (and full time caregiver), I can honestly say that chasing these little sweeties around the house each day is the main reason I tend to fall behind. So yes, I admit that I may have been playing with play doh, or climbing a jungle gym when I could have been blogging. But I make no apologies . . . these little ones are worth it! :)

Looking forward to sharing more of my work with you . . . and continuing to be a mom in between all of it. It's going to be a great year!
