URBAN EAU CLAIRE FALL ENGAGEMENT

Bailey + Luke

Yes, I grabbed your attention with a dog – Maybe that was cruel. I don’t know, but it’s wedding week for Bailey and Luke! Back in November, these two came and visited me in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, where we ran around in the park, danced on the many beautiful bridges around town, and enjoyed the crisp fall weather! Luke has a serious love for urban architecture, so naturally, we had to spend some time around the old Banbury Place, which is a former tire factory that stopped its operations in 1992. The city has since restored and repurposed the building for a wide variety of uses. Right outside of the building was this incredibly curvy, wooden bridge that made the perfect setting for these two.

For those who don’t know, I have been a student at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire for nearly three years, but this was my first time really getting to explore the beauty the city has to offer! We didn’t travel more than a three-mile radius but had so many different looks going on during their engagement session.

These two had me laughing through the entire session – Luke really knows how to get people to laugh, and it shows through in so many of their images – that combined with their beautiful pup was really a win-win!

Bailey + Luke’s wedding is coming up this weekend, and it marks the start of my wedding season this year. Much to Minnesota’s reputation, snow is in the forecast, but their wedding is going to be so special and beautiful nonetheless.
