Carly & Tanner

Young love!! These two lovebirds were fantastic. Hard to imagine they share a most charming son together! Carly and Tanner were wonderful to work with, so natural and full of smiles.

Seeing how excited they were to share the rest of their lives together gave me butterflies! We were so lucky to share this wonderful afternoon with them and can not wait for June!

We are so happy for the two of you! We know that come Wedding day, its going to be such a blast and full of the funest people and best of all...they are going to all be people that absolutely love you guys.
Congrats! 8 months and counting!

Devon & Anthony

Devon and Anthony make such a cute couple! It has been 10 years and they are still so in love. It was very adorable watching these two. Just like being kids again. So fun.

They are getting married in February....in the bitter cold!! (just kidding). They are going to be sitting on a white sand beach in the Dominican Republic saying their vows as the sun gracefully shines on their backs.

Then... after the mini-moon, they will head back to Wisconsin and celebrate with their family and friends at The Waters in Oshkosh. 

A fall engagement shoot, followed by a summer wedding and a winter celebration. I think you've well covered all your seasons. Seasons of LOVE!!

Devon & Anthony: you two are awesome and your puppies are such cuties! Can't wait to see you married and to be able to capture your celebration in Oshkosh. Congrats!

Oh Lilly!

So it took Lilly just a little bit to warm up to the camera. It started off with lots of staring and questionable looking faces at me, but I think with a few dangly toys that make music, I was finally able to draw her attention! That is, if she's not being showered with love from her Mom and Dad =D

It never failed. Everytime I needed Lilly to be just a little bit happier....all Mom had to do was give her a little toss and she was all smiles!

It was so great to meet Sarah, Adam and Lilly! All three of them so full of life and happy. How can you look at them and not smile?? So adorable! Thank you.

A day in the park

Smiles and smiles radiated from little Henry from the moment he stepped out of the car on that beautiful Saturday morning. Just shy of two and all he wanted to do was run around! It was so much fun chasing him and watching him geek out.

Sarah and Nguyen were great sports for coming out so early. I'm so happy that we were able to capture their first family photo.  

As little Henry grows, let him always remember these precious moments. Moments when Mom showered him with love and hung on to him dearly. Moments when Dad guided him and kept him safe on his little path. Family: together and always

A beautiful family on a beautiful day. So much love. Wishing them all the best and happy years to come.

Baby Nora!!!

Welcome Baby Nora!! Only a week old and she was so so good. Slept just about the entire time. Nora joins the world with her two older sisters.

It started off a bit cool in the studio, so in an attempt to make Nora as comfy as possible without her itty bitty clothes on, I cranked up the heat to 80!! Everyone roasted, but Nora stayed sleepy and comfortable. :)

Just the cutest little bee! A short and precious moment where she was awake.

Her sisters gladly welcome her into their family. Look...they are already having fun! To Mom and Dad, congrats once again. You two make beautiful babies and wonderful parents!

Mike & Maria

It was an absolutely beautiful day on Saturday. I was very fortunate to have been asked to help take the lead on photographing this amazing couple. Thank you to Lifetime Image for considering me to help capture this day.

Maria was such a beautiful bride. She is originally from Guatemala and most of her family flew in to help celebrate her wedding day. They were such a lively group and so much fun to be around.

Directly after the ceremony, the couple stepped outside where the clouds had finally blown away and waiting for them were two pure white doves ready for their release. It was a great moment for them and all their guest, especially when they released the other flock of doves that were sneakly hidden behind them.

The entire bridal party was such a blast. As I was placing all the men and little men in the picture....I asked "grandpa" to take a step to his right and everyone busted out in laughter! And yes...he is a grandpa, 15 grandchildren. But they were not acustomed to calling him that. Its a good thing everyone has a sense of humor!!

The day was filled with lots of smiles, laughter and some pretty crazy dance moves =D
All in all, it was a great day and I'm glad I got to share it with two amazing families and two amazing people. Thank you!

Love is in the air

This past Saturday, I had the opportunity to take Sara and Kyle's engagement pictures.  The sun was out, the weather was cool and breezy and there was definitely A LOT of LOVE in the air.  Sara and Kyle has been dating for 5 years, and within 5 minutes of meeting them, you can tell they are very much in love.  There's an undeniable chemistry between them.

Our afternoon was filled with laughters and we had a blast hanging out in the park. Congratulations Sara and Kyle!  We look forward to photographing your wedding this coming November!!!
