In a very bitter cold 8 degrees above zero, Allan and Kayla jumped out of a silver Chevy truck into about 10 inches of snow. While smiling preparing for the arctic air, they took off their coats and were ready to tackle a photo session in excitement of their recent wedding engagement. The bright sun lit up the snow as I stood on top of a ladder looking out onto the frozen snow-covered pond with the heart shaped shoveled path and the newly engaged couple.

Thankful for the tall pine trees blocking the wind, Kayla and Allan wrapped a blanket around them, helping to display the winter weather when their engagement and new chapter in life began.

Shooting darts is an activity that these two enjoy during cold Wisconsin winters. They compete on a team traveling to events throughout southern Wisconsin. The bright sun helped to illuminate the new engagement ring along with his and her darts.

Finishing up the photo session in front of an old white barn door, Allan teasingly suggested they make snow angels for the final photo as Kayla stood in her purple lace knee length dress. I had already questioned whether Kayla was part Eskimo, since she did not complain once during the photo shoot while in her dress in the bitter cold weather. She seemed up for the task. So, I instantly thought Allan's idea was AMAZING, but alas he was merely joking and not so interested in jumping into the piles of powdery snow. Maybe an idea for an anniversary photo shoot?
