Wedding Photography | Brian + Rachel | Grace Downtown + Grace Center | Downtown Milwaukee / by Emily Hilleshiem

It was a beautiful day in October. A tad on the cool side and a few raindrops here and there, but that did nothing to dampen this pair's excitement of getting married. Not to mention, the slightly overcast skies acted as the most perfect light source for this photographer! Despite being in downtown Milwaukee, we managed to find some beautiful fall color for Rachel and Brian, who opted for a first look. The smile behind my camera was almost as big as Brian's when he first laid eyes on his bride. These two were ready to get married. The subtle adoring gazes they exchanged and the kind words shared by their family and friends confirmed this. The themes of "in God's time" and a "cord of three strands" will serve as wonderful reminders to the couple of what their commitments mean beyond their wedding day.
