Ben & Alissa | Oshkosh

Neither Nick nor I had ever been to a Jewish wedding before Ben and Alissa's gorgeous wedding at The Waters in Oshkosh, WI. It was an awesome experience.

Alissa's bridesmaids use Naked palettes to do their eye makeup. Hint for future brides: this is the best eyeshadow for weddings. The pigments are strong, last all day, and look great in photos. 

 

 I love the colors in Alissa's bouquet. 

Alissa and her bridesmaids were so much fun!

 While I photographed the ladies getting ready, Nick met up with the guys.

 I loved how Ben walked together with his parents and Alissa walked with hers!

 I love the silhouettes from this ceremony, from the chuppah to Alissa's veil.

Having a second shooter is always the best for capturing two versions of the couple's first kiss! Side note: I love how the flowers on the chuppah integrate the colors from the bridesmaid dresses and bouquets.

 The Winkelman family:

 This was Alissa's idea. So cute!

Josh McGehee gave a hilarious toast and performed a hilarious version of "Wagon Wheel."

 Awesome Jewish wedding tradition: the chair dance.

 Congratulations, Ben and Alissa!
