I’m over here enjoying my winter slow season, while also already getting so excited and antsy for 2019’s weddings to start. I also am perfectly happy with the lack of snow here, while also kind of itching to do a snowy engagement/wedding shoot 😂🤷🏽♀️ I guess I just want my cake and I want to eat it too! Also shout out to these two human who I adore, and who braved this very not-warm MN winter wedding day for many beautiful outdoor photos - WORTH IT!! 😍🥂 . . . . . . . . . . . #katiederusphotography #wisconsinwedding #milwaukeewedding #wisconsinweddingphotographer #minnesotawedding #milwaukeeweddingphotographer #wedding #brideandgroom

Cheers to the new year!! 2019 started off pretty crazy for me, but I’m ready for a few months of slowing down and deep-diving into my business and get thing all in order for a big year of weddings and families!! Also - more champagne at engagement shoots please 🥳🥂🥰 . . . . . . . . . . . #katiederusphotography #wisconsinwedding #milwaukeewedding #wisconsinweddingphotographer #weddingphotographer #weddingphotography #milwaukeeengagement #milwaukeeengagementphotographer #engaged #engagementphotos #champs #milwaukee #wedmke #marriedinmilwaukee

I only got one Grandpa in my lifetime, but I got him for 31 years and he was the best of the best! He survived the great depression, the pacific theater of WWII, raising 5 kids (4 girls!), and my some of my Grandma’s most inventive (ahem, salmon mousse) cooking. He was a photographer way before it was cool on Instagram and is the reason I wanted to be one. He made it to nearly 100 years of life which is just crazy to think of, and while he’ll be greatly missed, his nick names will live on forever! Love you Gramps!

Oh hiiiiii there! It’s been a minute since I did a proper #fridayintroductions here! It’s just surprisingly so hard for me to ever find myself in front of the camera + coming up with random things to tell you all about me! But @kbattlephotography was so kind to snag a few pics for me and I’m going to tell you 5 quick Christmas-related things about me! 🙋🏽♀️🎄❄️🎅🏼 . . 1) I was once in a gospel choir for one school year (6th grade) and I remember having to sing at the Christmas program and thinking “this is NOT my life’s talent” 🤣🙅🏽♀️ 2) this was my first year I got to REALLY decorate for Christmas in my own house and I may have gone overboard 😬🤷🏽♀️ 3) My favorite Christmas song is Little Drummer Boy 😍🎶🥁 4) I’m terrible at wrapping presents 🎁🙃 5) One of my favorite Christmas morning traditions is my dad’s homemade pancakes for breakfast after opening presents. 😋🥞🥓 . . What are your favorite Christmas songs and traditions!?🥳🎄🎁

This time last year - caught in a New York City blizzard that was everything my photographer heart could dream of!!! I was willing to walk that city more in the wet and cold that day than any other warm day I’ve been there 🤣😬😍❄️💨🏙 . . . . . . . . . . . . #newyork #newyorkcity #nyc #blizzard #snow #snowstorm #newyorksnow
