I am SO excited that it is spring (almost summer) here! Being in the Madison, Wisconsin area, we can have LOOOOOOONG winters. I love that I have an in home studio to do shoots throughout the winter, but man it feels good to get outside!
This was my first outdoor shoot of the season, and boy did they make it fun. I know for the teenagers, doing a photo session wasn't their idea of a fun Friday night, but they were such good sports. I loved seeing them interact with their little sister and just have fun with each other. I even made them "attack" mom and dad, haha. This was a great session to start off the family portrait season!










Miss {L} is seriously the happiest baby ever! She is always full of smiles and just loves life. I just LOVE that I get to photograph her. I always have a hard time deciding on my favorite from the shoot, it's ridiculous, haha! See for yourself! Which is your favorite?


I was cracking up when Mom pulled this hat and Cabbage Patch doll out (it was hers as a kid). She said {L} wore the hat when it was crazy hair day at day care since she has very little hair! AHHHHHH, LOVE IT!

How sweet is this little beauty? I don't know how often I told this momma how pretty her little girl was. She also had such a loving big brother (though he wasn't too keen on getting pictures with her, hehe). Congratulations again {F} family!







I am absolutely honored when I am able to photograph babies through their first year (typically every 3 months). I just adored watching this sweet, bubbly, smart, baby girl grow this past year. I can't believe the year is over and I won't get to see her every three months :( Here is her adorable one year session.
Look how much she has changed in one short year.








I just recently started having clients come back to the studio for a Reveal Session for them to see and pick out their images. It has been such an amazing experience because I get to truly see what they think of their images (helps give me some feedback on what people like) and I get to experience the emotion they feel from seeing their images for the first time. This momma may or may not have cried during her Reveal :) I have to say, seeing tears in my clients' eyes just warms my heart. I want to make sure my clients absolutely LOVE the images that I give them. When they say, "It's too hard to choose which ones to hang," I know I did my job :) Of course when you photograph such sweet, adorable babies like Mr {A}, it makes it easy for me to get shots that are loved. :)








I even got a couple of big bro by himself while his baby brother was taking a feeding break. Can we say heartbreaker?
