Audry & Roger’s winter Barkhausen Engagement Session almost had no snow at all. Who would have thought in the middle of February that we wouldn’t have snow in Wisconsin.

Door County Engagement Session locations are the absolute dreamiest. We are lucky enough to live in one of the most attractive locations in all of the county. How many places in the US can you find beaches, emerald waters, fantastical shallow bluffs, pine trees forests, sand dunes, meadows, cherry orchards, and historic fishing towns? As […]

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.
