When Emily and I first came up with the idea for this blog, we knew that we would ask our dad to do a photo shoot with us so we had some images to work with before the site launched.
So, we headed off to one of our favorite spots in Milwaukee… the Milwaukee Pierhead Lighthouse. It’s right along Lake Michigan, near the iconic Hoan Bridge, Henry Maier Festival Park and of course, with a great view of the Milwaukee skyline.
We planned to go to a few more spots, but it was so freaking cold, we decided that this location would be good enough for now.
We tried all sorts of different angles and staging.
In the moment, everything seemed totally normal.
But then, dad downloaded the pictures to his computer and showed us the RAW files. When we saw this one, we started laughing so hard we started crying.
It looks like an engagement photo, right?
Facepalm.
