The T Family - Milwaukee Family Photographer

The T Family and I had a nice little afternoon photoing and playing at the Discovery World Museum. Incredible lighting in the main entrance of this place!

Kiddos Caity, Charlie & Kaleigh... oh, excuse me, Kaleigh is 16 {NOT a kiddo} were so awesome. Kaleigh was just wonderful with the little ones. Charlie was a busy little 3-year-old boy experiencing a museum. And Caity was REALLY making me work for those smiles :)

T Family, I had a blast with you all! Molly - should that be y'all? :)

gorgeous fam.

Charlie :)

I love sibling moments like this!

speaking of... how hilarious is this one? :)

the parents of the cuties.

We called the shoot done, and then Caity found this fish tank. She was fascinated :)

watson family - milwaukee family photographer

I met with the Watson Family at Lake Park for nice little late morning session. Jack [7] & dad tossed around the football while Conner [4] helped mommy with little sis, Carley [7 months]. Sibling interaction/dynamic is so fascinating to witness. Each child is their own little person with their own unique role in the family. 


Katie & Dave - I have to comment again on how well-behaved and enjoyable you children were to photograph! Oh, and I've been craving Hooligan's ever since our session :)


Enjoy your preview guys!

Jack - the big bro.

Conner - mommy's helper :)

Mommy & Carley.

The Arnold Family - Milwaukee Family Photographer

On Sunday, I shot the Arnold family - Connie, Jeff & their 6 kids (ages 16 & 13). Yes, you read that right, 6 kids, 5 of which are 13 years old. Connie & Jeff are the parents of quintuplets, and a 16 year old.

When we had our consult meeting, Connie wanted to know how the kids should dress, and I told her to let them be themselves. If they wanted a "dressy" family pic, then come with a more dressy option for each of them, but let them stay true to how they would dress. She did a great job - each kid def has their own style, and their outfits projected this perfectly!

I can't imagine having 6 kids (and umm, 5 at the same time) - I can't even imagine having 2 kids, and I'm well on my way! When Connie told me the story of "discovering" there were 5 in there, I was in awe. She basically said that every time they went in to the doctor, they would tell them there was another baby in there - and at some point, you just say "um, sure", because... what else can you do? 13 years later, all 5 kiddos are healthy, happy and pretty darn cute. And, older brother Nathan survived to tell the tale of growing up with 5 little siblings.

Enjoy your preview, guys - I had a blast at our session!

The Arnold brood ;)

... and of course, I can't forget Maya, the family pooch :)

lauren / warwick family - delafield family photographer

I haven't seen the Warwicks since Lauren made her debut into the family 6 months ago. I am always so amazed how much kiddos can change in such a short time! Lauren is sitting up on her own, Lily has a new shorter "do" [which I LOVE on her, by the way] and Ben has started K4. Geez guys. Sure do know how to make a photographer feel old! ;)

After pushing back the session for a couple of hours because of lovely ran, we met at the Delafield Fish Hatchery Building. Then we took a little walk to a way cute coffee shop that conveniently had AWESOME pastel colored chairs. Awesome location for pics, Shelley!

Warwicks - enjoy your sneak peek! Can't wait to see you all again in about 6 months :)

Lily & Ben - you two are about as adorable as they come ;)

Sweet Baby Lauren.

Silly Ben!

Lauren started attacking mommy's face. We think she was a little hungry :)

cruz-faran family - milwaukee family photographer

We've been corresponding for quite sometime with the Aida about an extended family  session - they were waiting for one familiy member to get home from Iraq. Not even kidding - we were all done with the session in 40 minutes due to some extreme cooperation on everyone's part. There were 6 kids. And a wardrobe change. 


Cruz-Faran & extended families - enjoy your preview! I cannot that you enough for being so  on point and making my job a breeze. That yummy guacamole was well-deserved :)

So, since Shannon is a Marquette grad, I am not allowed to post any of 

the Badger pics on this blog...  I'll leave those for the online gallery :)

grant, brenna & owen - milwaukee family photographer

Saturday morning, I headed out to Muskego for a big family session. Jamie, who had heard about us thru  my pal Anne (Kohls shout out) wanted to get some photos of her parents with their 3 grandkiddos.

Aside from sweating from the heat (at 9am no less!), Brenna, Grant and Owen were super easy to work with. Kick a ball to them, play peek a boo over the camera, let them dig in some dirt - and they were HAPPY.

Enjoy your preview, guys!

Owen - being a dude.

Brenna was pretty serious, but when I busted out peek a boo, she perked right up :)

Grant was so helpful - I think everyone should bring a 10 year old boy to their sessions.

The sisters and their little ones (because that picture in mom& dad's dining room has got to go! LOL)

Love this - stealing it for my next family shoot.

Brenna & Daddy

This cracked me up - apparently somebody's gotta do the dirty work on Sesame Street.
