When Blair and Dan asked us if we could photograph their engagement session (and wedding) in NYC, we were hyyyype! Almost all of the images were shot right by where they live…
My favorite ❗Oh! Did I mention they met at the University of Wisconson-Madison. 🙂 They are KIIIIND of huge Badgers fans… 😀This is literally right across the street from their condo. You two are some seriously hot tamales. ….an outfit change…
Oh don’t you worry… they’re stillll representing Wisconsin! That guy behind them be loooovin’ life! One of the many things I love about photographing in NYC is that NO ONE cares about what you’re doing… they’re all so busy in their own worlds. On the other hand, in the midwest, people will stop and stare as though we’re the traveling entertainment. Though, in the Midwest’s defense… I AMMMM quite hilarious! 😉Mike’s favorite ❓Philip Marie… this is where Dan proposed. 🙂 “Dan took secret guitar lessons for 4 months from Norah Jones’ guitarist and wrote a song for me with “inside joke” lyrics to the tune of “Stand By Me.” It blew me away.” -Blair
Blair is a cross-fit junkie… I mean… LOOOOOK at those legs! Thanks for having fun with us you two!

New York City
Together :: 12.19.05 • Engaged :: 1.24.14 • Wedding :: 5.16.15 :: NYC
Blair :: Ad Sales Marketing • Hometown :: Tenafly, N.J. • five words :: Upbeat, Caring, Fun, Creative, and Beautiful.
Dan :: Day Trader • Hometown :: Chatsworth, Calif. • five words :: Generous, Passionate, Energetic, Positive, and Loving.
How they met :: They lived in the same dorm freshman year of college at the University of Wisconsin. Dan lived 3 floors below Blair. Dan’s friend Matt Takash (who lived on Blair’s floor) was having a tailgate pre-party for a Badger football game, so both Dan and Blair attended. Blair noticed Dan’s long hippie hair and gregarious personality and Dan noticed Blair’s fun and smiley way about her. They immediately became good friends over boxed wine, cheap beer and laughs, but the “more-than-friends” came a year later 🙂

See you two in seven months… 😀
Much love friends!

Also, you guys should start a gallery wall in your home of all the images of Mike lying on the ground to get the shot. 😉
I really LOVE this engagement session…partly because I’m a Mad-grad, Bucky lover myself. I can just feel the NY city vibe in these shots and totally agree that no one else gives a hoot about what you are doing. For-gaaaat-about-it? No way — these are perfectly captured memories.
As always, you are completely outstanding at everything you do! Gorgeous clean vibrant images and perfection in copy writing! <3
AH!!! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!! Especially that last one!!! (Of them, not Mike. Hi Mike!) I’m in-love w this session!!

GAHHHH LOVE these! NYC is just so so SO amazing! Glad you guys had the opportunity to show that city what your talent is made of!
These are so great! Captured such a cool big city feel!
Love these pictures so much!! And too funny, my boyfriend and I met in the dorms at UW-Madison (I think maybe a year or two after Blair and Dan)… and just like them, I lived three floors below my boyfriend! Beautiful images, as always!!! 🙂
Man oh man… LOVE that you two were able to capture these in the middle of the hustle and bustle of NYC!! You’re magical! And Mike’s favorite is pretty amazing-the colors are perfect!! Fantastic work as always BBMK!
“When you say Wisconsin…you say it all!”
Go Badgers!!!
I love these the composition is BRILLIANT 🙂 xx
I swear, you could be dropped in the middle of the Amazon rainforest with no provisions and a cute couple and you would still knock it out of the park. I LOVE Mike’s favorite, but I also really love the last vertical on the right—it’s so intimate and sweet. These are beautiful, guys! Awesome job. 🙂
