A Central Library Engagement Session. I’m more convinced now than ever that it’s the people who make this job so wonderful!

2020 is here! And as we look forward, plan, and anticipate what’s to come, part of that is looking back at what came before in 2019. The people who have made 2019 such a wonderful year, the vendors who made any of these weddings possible, and the milestones that contributed to who we are now….

The day they got engaged, Jeff and Gina were walking along the shore of Lake Geneva. “We went during a cold and misting day in October and took a walk to one of Gina’s favorite spots. After making our way back, Jeff got down on one knee and asked Gina to marry him. She had…
I love taking pictures of people! But I get it- it can be stressful! And that’s why I wrote this and why you’re here. Because it doesn’t have to be painful. In fact, it can be fun! Wherever you are on the spectrum of excitement, and whether you’re thinking of your wedding, engagement session, or…
A Legend at Brandybrook Wedding. Kevin and Kristin met playing volleyball together! Hearing Kevin tell their story at their reception was the sweetest this as he described wanting to ask her to hang out! And I seriously love it when couples meet doing some kind of sport. I may be biased as that’s how I…
A beautiful, intimate, backyard wedding. In the small northern town of Floodwood, MN, Michael and Sara were married.

What is better than a newborn session? A newborn session with a dog! I loved photographing this family! In the few short hours I spent with them, It was clear how caring Ashley and Mike are. They are the kind of parents you meet and know instantly that their little one is going to be…
So many amazing things that could be said about Michael and Sara! We’ve known them for a few years and together have enjoyed evenings of board games, disc golfing, and great conversation. Not to mention random Sponge Bob references that no one other than Michael and my husband seem to understand. But beyond that, they’re…
A Milwaukee Lifestyle Newborn Session. I loved working with this family so much! With four kids there’s always entertainment and MAYBE a little bit of chaos. But is it odd if I appreciated the chaos!

A winter Iron Horse Hotel engagement session. I have a fondness for the snow; ESPECIALLY when I have amazing couples like this one who are willing to brave it without coats for some great pictures! And who doesn’t want a chance to bundle up close to the person you love? I had so much fun…
2018 was such an incredible year, full of so many amazing people! As more and more I’ve focused on the emotion and joy throughout a wedding day, I’ve been able to see stories unfold and journeys begin. From wedding days and the start of a marriage, to newborn sessions and the start of a growing…
Doctors Park Engagement Session. I loved getting to know Martin and Emily! They’re the kind of people I think everyone should meet. Both working as traveling nurses, every couple of months they load up in their van (which is decked out and awesome) and travel across the country to their new job. They also just ran…
A Green Bay Church Wedding. I’ve known Hannah and Isaac for a little over a year, making it all that more fun to photograph their wedding! I got to meet their families, celebrate with them, and watch my own baby girl join in as their flower girl (I may be biased, but she was adorable)!…
A Milwaukee newborn session. I respect anyone who steps into the world of parenting three kids! And I loved watching Kristy become a mother of three! I remember photographing Kristy’s second child 5 years ago (how!?) and not thinking much of it. But now as a parent of one, my appreciation for this family has…
A Milwaukee Yacht Club Wedding. I loved hearing Ben and Haley’s story! It’s one of those stories you think you’re going to have as a kid but later find out it’s probably not going to happen. Well these guys have that story! They met in middle school sharing a couple classes. Distracting each other, passing…
A Milwaukee fresh 48. It’s not often I get to do a newborn session at the hospital. But there’s something so precious about capturing those first moments as a family! Only a couple hour after Ingrid was born, I arrived at the hospital camera in hand. I love the details, the tiny feet, the laughs…
An East Side Portrait Session. I loved this session! We went around Milwaukee’s East Side looking for pockets of light to create beautiful and powerful images. But that wasn’t the only reason I enjoyed this session. I loved it because I got to spend the afternoon with Lisa. She is a beautiful example to so…
Public Market Engagement Session. When you think about Milwaukee, the Third Ward is often one of those iconic Milwaukee places that comes to mind.
