A couple weeks ago, I had the opportunity to travel down to the Milwaukee area and meet up with about 8 other photographers for a Shoot Out. What an amazing time! It was great to converse and connect with other photographers and do what we love! Two of the lovely ladies hosted the Shoot Out and found 3 newborn models and 2 maternity models (though I left before the second one arrived). Here are a couple of the shots I took. (I did not style or pose the newborns; or style the maternity)











It's always a sad time when a client (and also a friend in this case) moves away. I had been taking pictures of this family since their oldest (4years) was born. But sadly they moved out of state right after their third child was born. I was able to do his newborn pictures before they left (one pictured below). How cute is he in the police outfit just like his daddy.

I was so excited when I got the call that the family was coming back (since the sold their house) and that we could do Mr. {B}'s 6 month pictures! He has changed so much but still looks so much like his big brother and sister. He is such a calm, happy, baby too. I think mom needs to make a trip back here this winter when all the kids have their birthdays!











I'm so excited that I get to see this little cutie every three months for her first year. She was such a smiley little girl at her 3 month session (which is usually the hardest session!). What a little heartbreaker!







Well my little Avery is already 13 months old and I finally finished her 1-year photos last week. I guess that's what happens when it's your third child and have a BUSY May with birthday parties, dance recitals and end of school functions! I can't believe Avery is already technically a "toddler" even though she's not even close to actually toddling around. (She's very content crawling and doesn't even like to stand assisted). She has SO much personality already and is a social little butterfly! She loves to give kisses, wave, dance, eat (anything!), play with her sisters, and snuggle. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVERY!


















Two weeks ago my daughter had her dance recital. It's her second year dancing with Madison Dance Academy and this year she was in a combo class with ballet and jazz. That meant she was in two dances! I think she loved being in more then one dance (and that one dance was in the first act and the other was in the 3rd act, so she got to hang out backstage with friends pretty much the whole recital)! I took some pics of her in her costumes and also some while she danced during her dress rehearsal. Looking at these remind me how FAST my baby is growing up. I still can't believe I have a 7-year-old who will be a second grader soon!
