Lovely Family of 3!!!
{Oconomowoc WI Child/Family Photographer}

I love when clients come back year after year to update their child/family photos.  I love being able to see them every year and I love being able to see the children grow.  I have been photographing this little one since I believe she was 6 months old.  We did her 6 month, 1 year, 2 year and now, she is 3 years old and ohhhhh so cute… and of course, I just love seeing mom and dad every year as well.  I always have such a great time with them and adore photographing their family.

So, as you can tell “H” family, it was so nice to see you again and I can not wait to see you next year again.  🙂

Here is a little sneak peek for you and while you are visiting the blog, feel free to leave us a comment in the comments section below this post and/or click on one of the “sharing is sexy” buttons below this post to share with family and friends.

Beautiful Baby Boy!!!
{Southeastern Wisconsin Newborn Photographer}

I feel like the luckiest photographer in the world being able to snuggle (I mean photograph) this precious baby boy.  He was a whopping 9lbs 14ozs and mom was convinced she was having a 7lb baby girl.  Surprise!!!!  LOL…. Although I have NO idea where she was hiding him. She didn’t look like she could have given birth to a 5 pounder let alone an almost 10 pounder.  She looked amazing and I think everyone, including her doctors and nurses where amazed at the size of her “little” guy.  LOL

I am so excited for mom and dad and their new little family.  They have been friends of mine for years and years and dad, well, I’ve known him since I was 4 years old and I do know that he is going to be the best daddy ever.  🙂

Wonderful Family!!!
{Northern Illinois Child/Family Photographer}

This was a very fun family to work with.  They were all together celebrating Grandma and Grandpa’s anniversary and while they were all together, they hired us to come out to their lake home to take family photos.  They scheduled this session back in I believe February and we scheduled an early morning session.  We were so thankful we did.  By 8:00am, it was already 90deg and climbing.  By the afternoon, we hit 100+.  So, even though it was still very hot that morning, we were still very thankful for the early morning start.

The kids are all 3 years old and under.  That is always a challenge itself but I had my assistant Mary Ann the goof with me jumping around behind me being all silly to get the kids attention.  That worked like a charm and the kids did a great job and they are all soooooo cute.  All four of them have such gorgeous eyes.  🙂 Just beautiful!

Anyway, it was so nice to meet all of you. Mary Ann and I had a wonderful time working with you.  I know you are anxious to see your finished images and it won’t be much longer now.  But, in the meantime, I thought you would enjoy a little sneak peek from our session together.  🙂

Beautiful Family of 4!!!
{Oconomowoc WI Child/Family Photographer}

Blogging once again.  Due to the 4th of July holiday, my favorite holiday, we fell a little behind with blogging.  We’ve been playing the game of catch up and now we are back to blogging some recent sessions.  So, stay tuned for some more gorgeous families, high school seniors and a newborn to be coming up in the next few days.  🙂

Anyway, meet the “M” family.  A beautiful and fun family on their Okauchee Lake home.  It was a sunny and beautiful evening but it was HOT.  No, not just a little warm, it was HOT…. but, mom, dad and the kids did great. Sometimes I worry about little ones in the heat and worry that due to the heat, they may have a melt down and not last very long… but, that was not the case here.  They did surprisingly well. 🙂

It was wonderful meeting you “M” family and I hope to see you again. 

Here is a little sneak peek for you while you are waiting to see the rest of your session…. which, will not be much longer now.  🙂

Family of Courage!!!
{Beloit WI Child/Family Photographer}

What is the best part of the hospital?  The outside.  This is according to 5 year old Ms. P.
 
To know Ms. P is to love Ms. P. Heck, I already loved Ms. P and her family before I ever even met them.  I literally loved them in my mind.
 
My sister, we’ll call her Elf Kandi, is a volunteer Elf for the “Flight to the North Pole” at the 128th Air Refueling Wing in Milwaukee, WI.  The Flight is an annual volunteer event organized by a group of former Eastern Airlines flight attendants and a local unit of the Wisconsin Air National Guard.  These groups, along with dozens of military and civilian volunteers, turn the wing into an imaginary North Pole airline for children who are suffering life threatening illnesses.
 
My sister, Elf Kandi, was assigned to this beautiful young family who really pulled at her heartstrings.  And when she told me about this family, they pulled at mine too and I knew I wanted/needed to meet them and I wanted to give them the gift of pictures.  So, Elf Kandi contacted the head Elf who in turn went through the proper channels and before I knew it, I was talking to mom on the phone and we were scheduling a complimentary photo session.

On March 28, 2011 at the age of 4, Ms. P was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She was suffering from Wilm’s Tumor disease, a rare form of kidney cancer in children. That same week it was discovered that the cancer had metastasized.  Doctors found nine tumors on her lungs, four in her spine and four on her kidneys.
 
In early November family members saw a dramatic turn around.  Ms. P was still undergoing chemotherapy but she starting acting like herself again.  Shortly afterward, doctors said Ms. P was in remission.
 
During the session, when asked, “where did your cancer go Ms. P?”  She replied “it went bye bye”.
 
I really enjoyed working with this family and older sister Ms. A is a dream.  She is a beautiful young lady inside and out and really looks after her little sister.
 
Thank-you so much for letting me into your lives and I am so grateful for Ms. P’s continued health.  You 3 will be in my heart forever.  🙂

Over the several month bout with cancer, Ms. P received almost 400 “Beads of Courage” representing all of her various treatments, procedures and milestones.

Fun, Fun Family of 8!!!
{Waukesha WI Child/Family Photographer}

This gang is a blast to work with.  I have worked with them several times before.  I did the older 2 boys senior pictures, family pictures when they were just a small family of 7, newborn photos for little Mr. T and the list goes on and on and on… LOL  I just love working with this family and mom and I have become really great friends.  It’s been about 4 years since they’ve updated their family photos and Mr. T was not here yet.  So they definitely needed to update them. 

We have pretty much used up all the locations in my studio arsenal LOL so we went to a park in Milwaukee which I have never been. I loved it and the weather could not have been better. 

I know mom is dieing to see a sneak peek so here it is.  🙂  While you are visiting my blog, feel free to click on the comments link below this post to leave me a comment and/or click on one of the “sharing is sexy” buttons below this post to share with family and friends.
