De Pere, Wisconsin

Brittney and Josh had the wonderful idea of celebrating their 10 year wedding anniversary with an anniversary session at Fonferek Glen in De Pere, Wisconsin. The natural landscape and a bit of adventure is where these two feel right at home. Brittney and Josh an incredible couple with radiant souls and have created the most beautiful family together. They have a sweet ten year old daughter and a black lab who they love to hike and visit local parks with, especially ones with waterfalls. As a family they also enjoy hanging out at home watching Super Hero movies along with their 17 year old kitty whose super sweet, adorable, and still looks like a kitten.

Brittney and Josh were most excited for their Anniversary to spend the time celebrating themselves.

Ideal date nights look like a concert together at Cup O Joy in Green Bay or LifeST. Enjoying a good vegan meal and a walk at sunset. They do whatever strikes their mood and are very spontaneous.

Brittney and Josh met as teenagers through a friend back home in Janesville. Introduced over the phone, they met in person the next day. Josh made an impression by blowing Brittney away with his confidence. A few days later, they started dating and the rest is history.

Brittney describes Josh as hard-working, goofy, and intelligent and Josh describes her as nurturing, caring, and tidy. He said that if nurturing & caring mean the same thing, his 3rd word would be “beautiful.” What a sweet husband!
