Lil' Man "Q"

This little guy is nothing but smiles and wonderment.  "Q" is a part of my Baby's First Year Progam, and I have had a blast so far watching him grow.  I can't believe in three more months he is going to be a year old.  I swear I don't know where the time goes.  It seems like I was just photographing him as a newborn.  Time amazes me.

I love the look on "Q's" face in this image and I love the blue background with his bright red sweater.  Enjoy the sneak peek :)

Beautiful Expecting Mama

I had the pleasure to photograph Jennifer and Tayt.  Jennifer is expecting her first child and she is so,so beautiful.  You could see the glow upon her, and I do believe that Tayt was a bit giddy as well.  The two of them reminded me of two high school kids completely mad in love with one another.  They were too cute!!

Jennifer is not very big at all for being eight months along and I had to keep telling her to push that baby belly out...haha!!  Here is one of my favorite images of Jennifer that I thought I would share.  Enjoy!

My First Twin Newborns

Okay, so last week I was given the opportunity to photograph newborn twins.  I was so excited for this session, yet I was wondering how it was going to go because it wasn't one newborn...it was two newborns.  I did have a couple of ideas I knew I wanted to do and I did get two of the three ideas that I wanted to do, but I still enjoyed every minute of it. 

The babies did very well, but they weren't as sleepy as my typical newborn.   I did find that my studio wasn't as warm as I normally have it for newborns and I brought in an electrical heater, but it didn't warm it up that much either.  Here to find out my heater wasn't working.  So, I blame this on why the newborn twins didn't stay sleeping when uncovered.  Heat sure does help in newborn photography!!

Here are a few images from their session.

New Beginnings

Hello Everyone...I have been a photographer for the last six years, but have been doing it professionally for the last three and a half years.  I always loved to take snapshots of everything and honestly wasn't any good looking back at the images I took and I have grown so much as a photographer since then.  A year before my daughter was born, I started looking at photography magazines and I bought a my first SLR camera (and it was film).  Then when my daughter was born, I would always be photographing her.  It was like I didn't want to miss how little she was or what she had just accomplished...her smile, lifting her head when lying on her belly, sitting, standing, playing with her favorite toy.  I just didn't want to miss it. 

When I went back to work after my daughter was born, I would display images of her on the counter for all the clients that would come in (I used to work at a print lab in Eau Claire) and ask about her.  Then one day a local photographer had asked who took the picture of the little girl.  I told him that I had and he was very impressed and asked if I ever thought about doing photography for a living.  Up until then I hadn't, but he certainly sparked my interest.  I then went to his studio a couple of times and he would teach me about lighting, posing and a few other things.  Well, that was the start of my career.  So, after that I would be taking more images of my daughter and started asking some friends if I could photograph their children.  After a year of doing that, my son was born and I had a new subject to photograph.  I then realized how much I enjoyed photographing babies.  Plus, I also had the opportunity to photograph a couple of seniors that summer. 

After the summer, the print lab grew pretty slow and I was let go.  So, I decided that I was going to make something out of my photography career.  The first year was slow and each year my clientele grew a little bit more.  My daughter is now six and my son is almost four and I have been now photographing babies and seniors professionally for three and a half years.  It is crazy where I have started and where I am now.

Now, that we are talking about now...I can tell you that I am NOW going to be venturing upon another NEW BEGINNING.  My sister Trina will be joining me as my touch up artist (plus we have a few other things we would like to accomplish within the studio) and we will be moving the studio to a downtown location in Eau Claire, WI.  As of right now, my studio is on my property in Augusta which is about a 25 minute drive to Eau Claire.  This new adventure, my new beginning, is a big leap of faith.  We are both excited about this and we pray that we will gain so much more from this.

Here is to NEW BEGINNINGS :)
