Rustic Barn

I was asked by the parents of a bride to see if there is a barn that we could use for photos to be taken after the wedding.  I was checking things out and discovered this very cool old barn.

I drove up to the property and found the owner inside.  He was happy to show me around.  We went up to the second floor.  I took these shots.  The place has a number of holes in the floor and there are some places where the wood has rotted away, but what character and charm!

In the following picture you can see that there is another floor above.  It is a loft.  It would be perfect for taking pictures of people below on the second floor.   This would also be a great place to go for engagement pictures.

First Presbyterian Church in Waunakee, Wisconsin

I visited First Presbyterian Church for a wedding that I will be shooting this weekend.

While there I found a wild turkey roaming around.   Not only was I surprised to see the turkey, I was surprised to see how close it would let me approach it.  I later learned from the church secretary that she noticed the turkey just before Thanksgiving.  Evidently no one tried to take advantage of the situation!   I have had wild turkey before.  It is very tasty.

Inside, the church is very nice.  The organ looks fantastic.   Notice that the church is decorated for Christmas.  I was told that the church offers a live Nativity scene outside the building.
