As my busy season comes to a close (🙌🏼🥳😴) I’m starting to have time to think about my own wedding and every time I plan or research or talk to someone about it I get, weirdly, so excited for the 2019 weddings I’m shooting! Maybe because I can just show up for the fun, love, and beauty and not have to take any part in the planning or paying-for of those days 😂😬👰🏽🎉😜 My 2019 couples will always hold a special place in my heart as ones whom I walk alongside in this crazy stage of life! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #katiederusphotography #milwaukeephotographer #wisconsinphotographer #milwaukeeweddingphotographer #wisconsinweddingphotographer #engaged #engagementphotos #milwaukeeengagement #love

We had to reschedule these two’s engagement photos due to weather and I’m SO glad we did because we had the perfect day yesterday to wander some of the best Milwaukee spots and I loooove how these are looking! Plus they’re just adorable together and so easy to capture! Can’t wait for their big day in just less than a year!! . . . . . . . . . #katiederusphotography #wisconsinphotographer #wisconsinengagementphotographer #engagement #engagementphotos #milwaukeephotographer #milwaukeeengagement #milwaukeeengagementphotographer #love #couple #milwaukee #wedmke #marriedinmilwaukee

It’s been a long lifetime of brewers fandom - from childhood games at county stadium and school trips to brand new Miller Park (which I made zero efforts to go find pics of), to following the crew to Detroit (and seeing Justin Verlander throw a no hitter against them!!), St Louis, and Chicago, plus seeing them every year in Denver when I lived there, not to mention countless home games with tailgates and a few opening days thrown in - and now this year finalllllly getting to my first playoff game which was as magical as I had always imagined ... it’s been a wild ride and, while I’m pretty bummed waking up today knowing there’s no World Series for us this year, there’s always next year. Or however many years it takes. I’ll be there. Because once a fan, always a fan 💛💙💛💙 #gobrewers #theresnocryinginbaseball #exceptwhenyoulosegame7 #nohittersaresoyesterday
Fall, man. 😍🙌🏼🍁 . . . . . . . . . . . #katiederusphotography #milwaukeephotographer #wisconsin #wisconsinphotographer #fall #fall🍁 #fallcolors #fallinwisconsin
