Family ~ Higgins

I was fortunate to work with this awesome family earlier this fall.  Our original location was off the table, since the cool, textured, mustard yellow wall we wanted in town was now painted RED!  What a loss.  So Sara suggested this fantastic alternative, in Sharon, Wisconsin.  The yellow wooden warehouse, the neat textured brick in the alley, and the ivy creeping on the side of a fence all made for a really great backdrop.  I'm glad to know about it now!

I think they look great in black and white, too!

Thanks for inviting me to capture these photos for you, Sara!  I had a great time, and your kids are just super sweet.  It was a fun afternoon, even if we had to wait out a few sprinkles.   Have a happy new year!

Little Ones ~ Zane 9 months

On the blog tonight, instead of posting individual photos, I put together a little video of Zane's 9 month session.  Seems like only a few weeks ago we were hanging out at the farm, but he just celebrated his first birthday!  Say what?!?!  Happy birthday, big guy!  Love you!

Family ~ Legan

It was such a great opportunity to work with this extended family!  I've never worked with a group this size before, and I was a little bit nervous, especially knowing there would be six children all under five years old! But the kids did a wonderful job staying in a good mood!  Smiles from the little ones were a bit hard to come by at times, but I think the overall family photos turned out pretty nice.   Beckman Mill in Beloit, Wisconsin, was a beautiful setting, on a gorgeous sunny morning.  Doesn't everyone look great in their shades and patterns of blue and white?

After the extended family shots, we had requests for individual families to be photographed.  Once again, the mill offered a wonderful variety of places to pose.  The waterfall was so sparkly, that bridge has great lines, and the historic buildings have so much character. 

 

 I hope I have the opportunity to do some photos at this location again sometime.  I also very much appreciate Alie giving me a call to set this up, and organizing the large group to get together that day.  I learned so much from the experience, and I thank you for that very much!

Find me at my Facebook page to message me about family or senior portraits at this location or elsewhere.  I'd love to work with you!

Father's Day Mini Session - Siegel Family

Last weekend I had the pleasure of hanging out at the farm with this sweet family for a Father's Day mini-session.  The kids went straight to the chicken coop to check it out, but then got right to work for me.  After all the posing, they were able to have some fun on the swing set.  It was a lot of fun! The kids have such great personalities, as you can see in those precious smiles.  Thanks so much for asking me to work with you, Andrea and Shane!

Watch for more mini-sessions throughout the summer!
