A mixture of kids, football and a few of the Green Bay Packer players at a football camp make a great event for any photographer.  I had the pleasure of capturing some of the action. The many years of  being a soccer, football, baseball, softball, basketball,cheerleader Mom prepared me for the 400 kids at this camp and their talent for the game. The organization this camp presented was catered toward the community as well as the participants and their families. The multiple volunteers in our local area make camps like this a success. Thank you volunteers and local businesses. Our children are our future and with opportunities like this teaching them teamwork, determination and the power of self-esteem is priceless. 

Ava ~ infant session

I had the pleasure of meeting Rylan's new little sister, Ava. Thank you Rylan for being a wonderful helper during our session. And I compliment you on your big girl manners, Ava is lucky to have you as a big sister. Thank you Emily and Mark for having me capture Ava's infant session. She's beautiful!

 Ava wanted to enjoy her moment under the lights with her eyes wide open.  Her little chair did wonders for some of the sleeping portraits but her bright personality was just as wonderful to capture as she focused on the light around her. She did a spectacular job for her first portraits and I think her goal of looking precious was a success.

Enjoy!

Guess how old Rylan is? 

Rylan was showing me her "BIG SISTER" shirt.

Zack and Brooke were married last Friday. It was a PERFECT day. The afternoon ambient light diffused in all the right places, the breeze was cool enough to hold off the mosquitos and there was NO rain  Zack and Brooke were surrounded by family and friends as they united at Green Isle Park. Thank you for including me into your intimate day of love and joy and best wishes for a future full of dolls and the color pink to go along with your little guys obsession of ants and sticks. It will be the perfect balance to your family.

Chad and Ashley~engagement

Chad and Ashley are a wonderful couple. (I am not declaring this because we live next to each other, it's true. haha) We had fun at Bay Beach capturing their engagement session and even had their cute dogs cooperate for a few final portraits. I will say a couple of days after this session Ashley fixed my long over due hair (not) style with a good trim and my eye brows have never looked so good. Really, NEVER. Thank you and I look forward to your September wedding :) 

Enjoy.

 Tiny and Princess were terrific when it came to their turn for a photograph.

Dave and Mary Lambrecht

As I introduce this blog I was searching for an inspiring quotation as a description for the love Dave and Mary share.  I have not found one that was a complete fit.  I could attempt a story to highlight the two of them but a story would not reflect what photographs capture. As a photographer it was an honor to be part of an intimate ceremony. As two beautiful people were united with their families into forever I was seizing the moment through a lens. Thank you Mary and Dave for the allowing me to capture the magic. Love to you and your family. xoxo  

Here is one of their grandchildren. She warmed up to the camera for this cute shot.
