Katelyn ~ Pewaukee Class of 2015

We've only had a handful of hot, humid and gross days this summer and unfortunately Katelyn's senior session landed on one of those days last week.  But, she did great and was a trooper through the nasty heat.  We were in the Third Ward where there is always such a great selection of spots to chose from!  She also brought along a few handy assistants which is always a bonus for me! :)

Conner ~ Pewaukee High School Senior Class of 2015

Last week was Conner's senior session in downtown Waukesha.  Right along the river there are so many great little spots.  Every time I go I find something new, and go back to a few tried and true spots as well.  I know I posted a lot of serious face shots but Conner's smile was so great and natural (not always the easiest to get out of a guy) :)  He was great to work with and willing to do anything I asked!  I have a lot of younger siblings this year of Seniors I've photographed in the past which is always so fun!  Here's the blog post from a few years back of his beautiful sister Lindsey!

Chad + Patti = Wedding

Last Friday I shot my last wedding!  It just so happened to be at the same venue I shot my first wedding, so it was a perfect way to end that chapter of my career.  I met with Patti and Chad and the wedding party before the ceremony at Lake Nagawicka park and Yacht Club.  We then headed over to the Country Springs Hotel in Waukesha for their evening outdoor ceremony followed by the reception inside the hotel. 

 I loved idea of the generational ring shot of bride, Mom, and Grandma.  I wish I would have thought to do that at my wedding! And what little girl wouldn't feel like a princess in that dress dancing with her Daddy!  So precious! 

"B" Family ~ Family and Children Portraits

Starting off my work day today with my friend Liz and her family, Randy, Nathan, Jillian and their latest addition baby Benson.  I was in Stevens Point this weekend to photograph them and drop my kids off at Grandma and Grandpa's for the week! We attempted to keep our original day and time but a few shots in at Iverson Park we ended up getting rained out, so we met back there in the morning the following day and were able to finish the session off strong!  Here are a few shots!
