Friday morning I headed over to Luxemburg to photograph 3 month old baby Alivia.  I just love seeing the changes in a little one from their newborn photos to their 3 month photos.  Alivia was just a peanut for her newborn shots in May, but now she smiles and coos and has lots of chubby little baby rolls that I ADORE.  eeee!  She is just a sweetie! 

Mike and Crystal, you guys have such a beautiful girl!  I hope you love the sneak peek!

Monday afternoon I met twins Ashton, Mya and their mom Jessica over at the Wildlife Sanctuary for their three year photos shoot.  I have been photographing these two since they were 3 months old and always looks so forward to our sessions together.  Not only are they absolultely beautiful children, but they are well behaved and Jess always dresses them in the cutest outfits!   It was a warm day Monday, so little Ashton didn’t last too long in the heat, but it didn’t matter.  We were able to get a bunch of great shots of each of them alone along with some fabulous sibling/twin photos as well!

Jess, I hope you guys love the sneak peek of your munchkins!

Saturday morning I headed over to the Botanical Gardens to photograph little miss Brynnley for the third time in the past year. We did her newborn photos last August, her 6 month photos this past winter and I couldn’t believe it was already time for her one year portraits! We had a gorgeous, sunny morning at the Gardens and Brynnley did really well…for her first two outfits. And then she was done. DONE. The cake smash photos had to be saved for last due to the crazy mess they create and well, little Brynnley was completely over her photos by then. Poor thing was a sad sobbing mess covered in frosting. It was adorable!

Tess, so good to see you again. Your little peanut just gets cuter and cuter everytime I see her! I hope you and Jason enjoy the sneak peek!

quite possibly my favorite image of the session.  so sad, but SO cute! and a quick shot with Mom and Grandma, three generations!

Friday night I met Max and his mom Jen over at the Wildlife Sanctuary for his three year portraits. We had to reschedule his session twice during the past two weeks due to rainy weather and I was thrilled we were finally able to get his sweet face in front of my camera again. Max’s yearly sessions are one of my very favorite of year because he is always an angel for his photos. He has consistantly done a fabulous job with his sessions since I started doing his photos when he was just an itty bitty baby three Julys ago! He is a little spark plug, full of energy and giggles and adorableness. I just love him.

Chad and Jen, you guys are so blessed to have such an awesome little boy in your lives. I look forward to seeing him each year! I hope you love the latest and greatest of your little man!

Look how excited he is to get his pictures taken!!!

Tuesday afternoon I met Sarah and her three kiddos over at Pamperin park for some updated photos. I met Sarah last fall when we did their family photos and liked her immediately.  She is sweet, funny, so easy to talk to and to top it all off, her kids are adorable! And SO easy to photograph. We got some amazing shots during our quick 45 minute session and they all did wonderful!

Sarah, I hope the rest of your crazy week is going okay and that you guys have a FABULOUS vacation up north next week! I hope you and Pete love the latest and greatest of Jake, Henry and Georgia!

How cute is little Georgia???!!

They don’t look like brothers at ALL do they? 😉She was just hamming it up for my camera!

Thursday morning I met Holly and her two kiddos over at Devil’s River for some updated photos.  I have been photographing these two for a few years now and they always do a great job for their photos.  It started to rain on my drive out to Denmark, so I was worried we wouldn’t get the shoot in, but the rains held off long enough for us to get some adorable shots!  Their cousins Cole and Trevor joined in for a few ‘cousin’ photos as well! 

Holly, so lovely to see and chat with you again. I hope you and Jason love the latest images of your kiddos!

Last Thursday I headed down to Appleton to photograph two and a half year old Vada and her five month old baby brother, Vaughn.  I hadn’t photographed Vada since her one year portraits which she did SOOO fabulous for.  She is quite possibly one of the most adorable kiddos on the planet.  Curly blonde hair, big expressive eyes and just the sweetest personality to go with it.  She started off a bit timid, but after some Cat in the Hat silliness, she warmed right up and we got some great shots.  Now I was warned by their mom Katie that baby Vaughn wasn’t always the happiest camper, but I was determined to get some nice shots of him too.  It took a few tries, but with Katie’s help, our determination paid off!  It was a great little session!

Katie, so nice to see and chat with you again.  Your kiddos are just precious!  Hope you and Kirk love these images!

one of the most expressive children I have ever photographed.  I love it when you get more than just cheesey smiles out of a kiddo.  gah, just a gorgeous girl. Look at that adorable grin! HE SMILES!!!and we’re done.  ha.

Tuesday morning I headed over to Denmark to photograph sisters Aubrey and Whitney.  Aubrey is almost 3 years old and her baby sister was born 7 weeks ago.  Both girls are just adorable little peanuts and when I say little I mean little!  Aubrey is almost three and weighs two pounds less than my Bobby who just turned two.  And baby Whitney is 7 weeks old and still weighs less than 9 pounds.  We were able to basically do a newborn session with her which is very rare for 6 week old babies.  She fit into all of my baskets and was just as sleepy as any newborn I have photographed.  It was fabulous!  (especially since Jenna had wanted to do newborn photos with me 6 weeks ago but I was all booked up when she called).

Jenna, I am so glad you got the sleeping baby photos you wanted!  Your girls are gorgeous and I hope you love the images we captured!

LOVE this.  ha.  she has such a fun personality!!look at those lips!she is perfection.  love for sister.  so sweet!

Tuesday morning I headed up to my hometown of Oconto Falls to photograph Elle’s 2 year portraits.  I hadn’t seen her since we did her family photos last August and my oh my has she grown!  She is now an adorable, curious and energetic 2 year old (she actually turned 2 yesterday) who was not too thrilled with me when I pulled out my camera Tuesday morning.   But after some coaxing and a bit of Jimmy Buffett music to cheer her up, we got some adorable shots!

Dave and Missy, thanks so much for asking me to photograph you sweet girl again!  Missy, I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well and I can’t WAIT to find out if baby #2 is a girl or a boy!  Hope you love the sneak peek!

I know she is not smiling, but I just adore this next shot!finding out that marigolds are stinky a quick shot with mom and dad!what most of the session was like….I couldn’t stop laughing.  She’s a riot! Happy Birthday sweetie!

Thursday morning I headed down to Reedsville to photograph 6 week old baby Adeline and her big sister Hilde.  I have been photographing Hilde since she was 6 weeks old and could stare at her sweet little face all day.  And now I have two sweet faces to stare at because her baby sister is just a gorgeous little lovebug.  And both girls did great for their photos.  Hilde is always shy at first, but she relaxed quickly and was a great little model.  And baby Adeline was FABULOUS.  She slept a bit, smiled a bit and was basically perfect.

Sarah, it was so great to catch up and chat with you.  Your girls are so beautiful!  Can’t wait to photograph the whole family this fall!  Enjoy the sneak peek!

First Hilde showed off her shades that matched my background perfectly! 

look at those lips!!! EEEE!love from sister!by far the smiliest 6 week old I have ever photographed!in her bonnet and sweater knitted by Grandmaand even though it was 100 degrees outside, we headed out for 5 minutes for a few more shots of Hilde!
