Homesteading

Hi, I’m Danielle — homesteader, homeschooler, and maker of all things cozy. Here I share seasonal recipes, handmade goods, and the beauty of simple, intentional living.

MEET the Helgesons

Blake and Kristy have been together for 9 months and got engaged back in October while on a trip to New York City with their families. They love staying in cooking Pinterest recipes together and love making puzzles together. Date night looks like sushi followed by a movie back home with lots of cuddles. Sounds perfect to me!

We danced and ran through the tall pines and the gleaming light for Brea x Jacob’s Woodland Adventure Engagement Session. The light was buttery and their love was deep.

Erin and Casey love the outdoors and spending time together. They are hikers who enjoy camping. Catching snowboarding runs in the Winter. And like true Wisconsinites they love their Packers Football and beer. Casey is goofball and keeps Erin laugh constantly. 

This stunning venue is AJ’s families farm. Her parents were sweet enough to allow The Rising Tide to have our styled shoot at their home and have use of their property.

It was such a pleasure getting to know this couple. Two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Clearly made for each other, these two kind hearts made each other smile constantly. We actually did this engagement session the evening before their Wedding. Such a fun way to spend the big night before, relaxing and loving on each other before the big day. Eric and Kate were obviously not nervous at all, we just walked around Soulard snapping photos before heading over to their Rehearsal at The 9th Street Abbey.

Lovers of the outdoors, Candice came up with the wonderful Gone Fishing Engagement Session. The beginning of their relationship revolved around a lot of fishing, relaxing, bonding, and falling in love.

Tiffany is creative, a natural beauty and easy going, there’s no wonder why Nate loves her so much. Nate is smart and charming and they both enjoy playing with their two pups Mazy and Luna.
