A contemporary approach. A sophisticated result.
I have “hair envy”.
Be like the flower, turn your face to the sun.

I have photographed Drew since he was a 3 month old baby, so it’s neat to see him grow. Of course, it’s hard to see him look older than his two years. I usually like images where children look “grown up”. (Except when it’s my own children. I was a bit sad when a client told me my daughter’s three year old portrait made her like a six year old. I want to keep her a baby forever!) But, even I felt a tug on the heartstrings to see Drew looking more like a three year old because, as a parent, I think it’s hard to see your child grow up before you are ready!
We photographed Wendi and Brian’s wedding years ago. So when they welcomed their third baby boy, I was excited to photograph their whole family together. Little Riley will get plenty of love from his brothers. And, I’m sure, will be one tough little cookie!
Michele and Kim have three sweet girls, who all loved the camera! I love to be able to photograph the whole family together, as well as the children together and separately. It’s so much fun when their personalities show!
Neomi’s family recently moved to Madison. When it was time for her family’s portrait session, she wanted to include the character of city of their new home. The Wisconsin State Capitol was the perfect place. And while they may not be Wisconsin natives, they are certainly Packer fans!
We photographed Sara and Ty’s wedding several years ago. I was delighted when they came back with their newborn daughter, Kate. Sara happily sat back and let me have fun photographing Kate, who dozed through the whole session. It was a win-win for everyone!
Chelsey & Jeremy were married in Coggon, Iowa. Coggon is such a tiny town that there is one stop sign in the middle of it, and not a single car was on Main Street (this worked REALLY well for photographs!). Yet, it was perfect- not just for wedding photography, but because it is the hometown of Chelsey and Jeremy’s family, as well as my family. (Once upon a time, my father was a dairy farmer, just outside of town.) We had a beautiful fall day and using the historic Opera House was a fun backdrop.
We had a great time at the Madison, Wisconsin Wedding Planner & Guide bridal show the weekend of January 15 & 16th. With almost 200 wedding vendors, it is a great place to start wedding planning. And with almost 1,500 brides, along with their family and friends, it was one busy place! We had fun showing off some new albums and engagement books. We also had the Cheeky Booth there and show attendees were able to check it out and have their photos taken in the booth, complete with 2 photo strips to take home.
