The Pavelski Family | Eau Claire, WI Family Photographer

It amazes me how fast time flies by...how fast ONE YEAR flies by. And in that one year, how many things can change. Amazing.

Just one year ago, I was so very very new to photography and my good friend Dawn allowed me to practice my skills on her new baby boy, Evan. My how things have changed - in both their world AND mine!

Now Evan is running around, full of energy and full of smiles and laughs!!

He was VERY interested in my camera...


...and Evan loves his big brother!














Thank you so much Dawn for your support this past year - through many, many changes - you've been in my corner, cheering me on and helping me through what has certainly been the craziest year ever. I'm so happy to have captured these memories for you and your family - it's the least I can do. :) Love you!

The Gabay Family | Hudson, WI Family Photographer

A couple of weeks ago, I met up with my sister-in-law and her family in Hudson, WI. Unfortunately, just as we arrived at the location for photos - the clouds rolled in and it became cold and windy. We took a few, but then decided to have a "part two" the following weekend when we were all getting together again in Milwaukee.

Between the two "mini-sessions" I think we got some great shots! :)

Finally on Facebook!

I know, I know,... I'm totally behind with the whole 'facebook fan page', but I finally set one up a couple days ago!

I'll be posting updates and fun news, etc - so head on over and fan me!

You know you want to. ;)

Courtney + Mike | Madison, WI Wedding Photographer

This is just a small preview of the many many maaaany photos I took of this couple. Courtney and Mike.... good friends of mine that go wayyyy back to grade school and remain to be good friends. I could go on and on - but I will save that for a second (or third?) post of their photos. For now - I'm heading off for a day with my hubby, but I know Courtney (and MIKE!) are anxiously waiting to see some of their photos...

These are but a small sliver of the many gorgeous photos from the day - I will post much more later. I promise. ;)

Courtney and Mike live in Madison and had numerous ideas for fun locations. We started off outside the Union on Lake Mendota.

This was one of the very first shots I snapped and it's one of my favorites...

Another one of my very favorites...love love love...





We had many other photos from inside the Union as well, but for now - I'm moving on to our walk down State Street.


I love this photo too - but only because I know what Courtney was laughing about! ;)



There will much much more to come in the next week! Stay tuned!

Melissa and her boys | Wisconsin Family Photographer

Despite a less-than-promising forecast last weekend, the rain held off long enough for this fun session with an adorable family.

Melissa and her son have such a loving relationship... It was a joy to watch them interact.





Melissa, you're gorgeous...


Feeding the ducks...




Thanks so much guys for driving up - you're awesome :)
