Cook Family {Family Portraits :: Cumberland, WI}

I met some cuties last week! I spent the evening with Clarissa, Caleb and their cousin Alex in Cumberland, WI, taking pictures and having fun. I think they had a good time too! ;) Getting three kiddos to look (and not look crabby!) and sit or stand close together isn't always the easiest but Clarissa & Alex did great helping get the littlest, Caleb, to work with us.

Nick & Ember {Wedding :: Eau Claire, WI}

Nick and Ember were married August 3 at the Eau Claire Masonic Building. It was a perfect day and a great venue! I took pictures through the beginning of their reception and we had so much fun!

Nick and Ember waited to see each other until during the ceremony. When Ember walked up the aisle, Nick kept his back turned.

What a great reaction!

We took some portraits inside and then headed to the front of the building.

Westley Marshall {Newborn Portraits :: Eagan, MN}

In June, I was lucky enough to go see Cory and Alison for their maternity portraits. About a month later, Westley was born! While he may not have been all that excited to be a model, he is gorgeous!

Burling Family {Family Portraits :: Cumberland, WI}

I've had the opportunity to do portraits for Jake and Nicole as their relationship has grown - from engagement, to wedding, to newborn and family portraits. Last week I made the trip up to see them and baby Gia (who is not so much of a baby anymore!). We had a great evening taking portraits around Nicole's parents' property.
