{ Motherhood }

Once again, the weather was cold & wet for the Mothers Portrait Event...last year was worse, so hopefully next year we will finally have the sun!

Everyone was excited to be there, and very photogenic, and I had a blast seeing all the moms having fun with their kids. I knew it would be a good day, as right before the first family came, I had a mother duck and her ducklings swim by for a photo :)

{ A Fun Family, & A Spring Day! }

The 'O' Family was such a fun family to work with! When I met them at the Capitol, they were a little unsure of what to expect...they had won this session at a silent auction, and had never had professional pictures of the family done before.

I explained that they would be running, laughing, etc...everything except sitting perfectly still and smiling at the camera. They were great! The connection between all of them was great, and it showed in each and every image. You've gotta love the disgusted look on the kids faces, when I told mom and dad to kiss!

Enjoy your pics 'O' family, and I look forward to seeing you again next year!

{ Seniors - 2011! }

It's senior season!!

Mr. C was nice enough to let me try some cool new editing techniques on his pictures, the textures turned out great! I met him on State St. as we wanted an urban feel, and I had him bring his sax, so we could get some jazzy images. Here are some of my favorites from his session!

{ First Warm Day Session! }

Okay, so it was not really the warmest day, but it could have been worse. This particular session took place back in April, and we all know that in Wisconsin, it can snow in April!

The day was sunny, but breezy, so although Miss 'D' was shivering, she had some great smiles for me, and enjoyed running, jumping, skipping, and playing jokes on Mom and Dad...it was a typical 5 year old session :)

I love that it was breezy...her hair blowing around her face looks great in the images.

{ Welcome Baby 'O' }

Baby 'O' was born a few months ago (I am really behind in postings)!

His family was really fun to work with...between bribing older brother with M&M's, changing diapers, feeding, we got some really beautiful shots.

Enjoy your images 'P' family!
