Maddie and Bret got married underneath my favorite tree in Madison and I got to document it and now they have a sweet little one named Wren and a pup in their home and this summer I got to document them in their home. I always say this, but I really love staying connected with my wedding couples and I love when I get invited to photograph their lives.

I’ve known Elise since Elementary school, I got to go to Colorado to photograph her wedding to James a few years ago and this summer they took a road trip to Wisconsin and I got to meet their precious son, Silas! I love getting to continue documenting as families grow and it was such a joy to see these two again and meet their happy kiddo.

I’m not going to lie - I miss photographing people, I miss being invited into peoples homes and document their day. On March 7th I went over to meet this lovely family in their beautiful home and I didn’t know it would be my last family session for awhile. It was just starting to feel like spring, that feeling where you know hibernation is coming to an end and soon you will be meeting up with friends at outdoor cafes and hosting grill outs. We spent some time in their beautifully lit home and then went for a walk out on the tracks just out in their backyard - it was a simple day in the life of this family and I got to document it.

Met up with this lovely crew in Milwaukee while the leaves were perfect. We all took a walk in a beautiful park, skipped a few rocks in our midwest ocean aka, Lake Michigan and had a really nice time.

I was overwhelmed when I walked into this home because it was so beautiful, every room had amazing light and I wanted to spend hours photographing this family. Meet Jennie and Ryan and their adorable daughter, Beatrix June who was born in March.

I love when I get an email from a past wedding client with the exciting news that they are having a baby and want to schedule a family session with me. I love that I get to continue documenting their life events and meeting their children. I photographed Susannah & Alex's wedding back in 2012 and a few weeks ago I was reunited and had the chance to meet their beautiful daughter, Serena.

On (what I fear) the last day of summer I went over to get to know the Kovacic family and document their newest member of the family, Mikey. We had a great time in the heat and captured many great photographs of the whole family.
