Brooklynn Page: Newborn Photos

Our friends, Travis & Andrea, had a beautiful baby girl on September 22nd, 2009. My husband & I visited Brooklynn (and Travis and Andrea, I suppose) on the following Saturday. We took newborn portraits - the youngest baby I've ever done photos of! She did such a great job & is absolutely adorable!

Thanks for letting Paul & I come meet Brooklynn! We had tons of fun doing the photos & hopefully we'll get to see her (and you) again soon! :c)

Lyndsey & Steve: The Wedding

Well, somehow, with the start of school, I got extremely behind on posting about the photos I've taken. Or even posting at all. So we're going to travel back in time a little bit & look at some photos from Lyndsey & Steve Elliot's wedding, from back in mid-August.

Lyndsey had some great ideas for photos and we got great formal portraits at the church in Barron, WI. Lyndsey & Steve's three kids were absolutely adorable! They did great for pictures... although I think that may be because they were bribed with toys. ;c)

I hope you guys had a great night and have been enjoying each other and your kids for the past... gulp, month and a half since your wedding! Some of my favorites...


Lyndsey looked beautiful in her dress!

I'll be posting some more photos of another adorable baby SOON (they're already edited and on my website!!) and some photos of football, the Renaissance Festival, and our new house in a while - they've been waiting for maybe 2 or 3 months just to be edited!

Have a great week!

Noah: 3-Month Portraits

My soon-to-be sister-in-law (wow, that's a lot of hyphens!) came over to my house and we had a party. It involved every person in our family coming over to see Noah and torturing him by taking about a million pictures. We tried so hard to get him to smile and giggle! We even called my brother. We got a couple, but not many! Noah did a great job anyway and we had a lot of fun!

Jenna & Pete: The Wedding

I attended Jenna's wedding as a guest... with a camera! We woke up on Saturday, August 8, to pouring rain outside the window. The meteorologist had predicted rain in the morning & sun in the afternoon, but this rain did not look like it was ever going to stop!

Fortunately, the rain did stop in time for the ceremony. The ceremony and reception were beautiful! Congratulations Jenna & Pete! I can't wait to come visit you at your new house, once you've moved in. :c)


The ceremony was beautiful

Jenna's sister, her maid-of-honor, gave a great speech... both of them tried to keep their tears at bay!

Jon & Kelley: The Wedding

Peeking out the window, waiting for the sun to appear from behind the clouds and mist. The morning flew by, with hair appointments, getting dressed, and doing makeup. Kelley and her bridesmaids checked outside periodically, but it was becoming apparent that the clouds weren't going to go away. Kelley looked at me & said 'Clouds are better for pictures, right?' After that, we spent the time before the ceremony hoping for a dry day and, although it stayed chilly, those hopes were granted!

Jon and Kelley got married in the gorgeous Prospect Park, overlooking the St. Croix River. The ceremony was as beautiful as the location. Some of my favorite pictures were from right at the end of the ceremony because Jon and Kelley just look so happy and in love! From the rehearsal, to getting ready, to the ceremony, to the dancing at the reception, everyone was having so much fun and that made my job much easier.

Jon and Kelley - thank you for letting Paul & I be a part of your day! We had so much fun spending the day with you. We'll miss you once you move to Tennessee!

Baby Noah

As a gift, I gave my brother & his fiancée photos. Okay, I know it's kind of a "cheater" gift, but baby photos are expensive! So I'm taking newborn, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and one year photos for them. My husband, Paul, and I headed over to their beautiful house one evening a couple of weeks ago to get some newborn photos. Noah was 2 weeks old at the time we took them and absolutely adorable. He did a great job!

Taking photos of a tiny baby was so much fun and I can't wait to do his next set in a couple short months!

Up next (in the hopefully near future): More cruise photos, aboard Serenade of the Seas!
