Allen Centennial Gardens Madison Engagement Session

May 18, 2022

From the moment we first chatted with Kelly and Kraig over Zoom, Cody and I were instantly captivated by their sweet and fun personalities! It was impossible not to feel their joy as they told us the story of how they met in 7th grade- how cute!! After years of knowing each other, they started dating when they were 16 and have been together since. Despite enduring long distance during college, their relationship stayed strong. Kraig proposed in 2019 during a trip to one of their favorite cities- Chicago! They enjoy spending time together, as well as with their two sweet cats, Jax and Newt 🙂 If you’re in the Appleton area, be sure to check out the amazing smoked meat catering company Kraig is a part of!

Kelly & Kraig had entertained the idea of eloping in Arizona, but after touring The Paine Art Center and Gardens, they decided it was the perfect venue for them! Their August wedding is going to be absolutely stunning, and we cannot wait! When thinking about good locations for their engagement session, I immediately thought of Allen Centennial Gardens, which gives a similar vibe to some of the gardens at The Paine!

It was so exciting to finally meet Kelly and Kraig in person. Cody and I couldn’t stop smiling and had so much fun chatting with them as we moved from spot to spot. I swear with each pose we set them in, Kelly and Kraig melted into their own little world. Meanwhile, Cody and I couldn’t stop telling them how amazing they looked!! With all the spring flowers finally in bloom, this garden session was absolutely beautiful!
