Bennett ~ 3 years

It's hard to believe my Bennett is going to be 3 the end of November.  We did a quick shoot the other evening right before the sun set just around the house.  I was planning on going downtown Menomonee Falls for his portraits but I get impatient and didn't want to wait.  And the sun was literally setting right before our eyes so the Mandock house it was.  It just goes to show that you don't have to have the coolest location ever, just the coolest subject, which I did, if I do say so myself!

Bennett and Grant ~ My beautiful boys

I just had to post some personal photos of my two favorite models, my sons Bennett (almost 3) and Grant our newborn.  Bennett is such a good brother, completely took me by surprise how loving and attentive he is to his little brother.  Today he said to me he liked his "cool dude brother"!  And Grant is the best baby ever.  He hardly ever cries and is great snuggler!  My husband and I are very blessed to have these two kiddos!

This outtake of Grant screaming in Bennett's ear is just too funny not to share!  :)

Lucy ~ Pewaukee Class of 2014

Here's a late night blog from Lucy's senior session last week out at Lime Kiln Park and Mill Pond Park.    She braved the river and got in the water for a few fun shots, and for the first time that I've known the chain link fence was down around the lime kilns so we were able to get up close and personal with them which was awesome!  We were disappointed to see the river at Mill Pond was down to a trickle, it's dammed off for whatever reason, but we managed to work around it!

Summer ~ Pewaukee Class of 2014

Here is a peek from Summer's senior session earlier this week at Lake Nagawicka in Delafield.  I had such a good time with her and her mom.  I've had so much fun with so many ladies and their mom's this year!  I really do have some great clients and a great job!

Becca ~ Class of 2014

Last week I met up with Becca downtown Waukesha for her senior session.  It started off cool and sunny and by the end of it we were getting rained on.  Luckily it came during the last pose!  What luck! 

Jake ~ Pewaukee Class of 2014

Here is a peek from Jake's senior session last week out at Old Falls Village.  I shoot there a lot but very rarely in the a.m., so it was fun to see the different spots we could go because the sun is coming from a completely different direction.  

Sarah ~ Pewaukee Class of 2014

Sarah rocked her session in the 90 something degree heat of last week out at the Delafield Fish Hatchery.   We treated ourselves to a wade in the river for her last shot.  It's amazing how a few inches of water can cool you off so much!  It seems so crazy as I sit here in my sweater and jeans that just a week ago it was so hot and humid.  Fall is in the air now and I'm loving it!  

 

Olivia ~ Pewaukee Class of 2014

 Olivia was a trooper for her shoot at Frame Park in Waukesha earlier this week.  It was hot, I mean 90 some degrees and humid!  Yuck!  Not to mention the wind was blowing in most cases against us (except this first picture, the wind was her friend in this one!)  Here are a few I instantly loved!
