We had a beautifully crisp Fall evening for the H Family’s sunset portrait session! We met up for family photos at River Bend Nature Center in Racine and had just the best lighting! We started during the tail end of soft “golden hour” as this sweet fam enjoyed some snuggles while staying warm 😊 We captured a blend of photos: candid and posed, as well as different combinations like the three of them together, Ella with each of her parents, and even a couple of just Sarah and Mike together.

We’ve been photographing little Ethan and his dads, Jess and Judd, since Ethan was a newborn baby, and it was so much fun seeing these three again for their candid family portrait session at Grant Park / Seven Bridges in South Milwaukee! He’s growing so fast, and he is just the sweetest: wanting to hold hands with his friendly family photog and thanking me - all on his own - at the end of their session 🥰 Makes us love what we do even more when we have moments like these!

Jason, Rodney and their son, Carson, were on vacation in Milwaukee (their first time here!), and it was wonderful photographing their family portraits while they were having fun in our awesome city! It was great seeing MKE through their eyes and hearing about all the activities they were up to ☺️

It was so much fun photographing the S Family! They love warm, fun, candid and creative photos, and we started our session at Milwaukee’s Black Cat Alley for an artistic city feel. Their outfits coordinated perfectly with the vibrant colors in the murals, and we captured a variety of photos including each kiddo individually, the siblings together, their full family, and lovebirds Sophie and Vikas. Their kids, Pauras and Turya, each picked out their favorite mural, and we all felt so inspired!

We had such a lovely evening for this sweet family’s portraits at Milwaukee’s Lake Park! Siblings, Norah and Austin, were so sweet with each other as they looked at each other often and held hands. Their parents, Whitney and David, had their wedding photos taken at this park, so it was wonderful for them to be able to reminisce while walking through the park with their kiddos 😊

Breckyn just recently celebrated her First Birthday, and she and her big brother, Bennett, enjoyed exploring Whitnall Park during their family portrait session! Breckyn loved checking out the wildflowers while Bennett had fun running around and seeing the geese! He was such a good big brother to his sister during their session, too, as he held her hand and they played together in the leaves.

Holden just celebrated his Third Birthday, and he was such a joy at his Fall portrait session with his dad, Jadon. We had a beautiful autumn morning with warm sunlight highlighting all the changing leaves. Holden’s mama / Jadon’s wife, Katie, planned out their perfectly coordinating outfits (just look at that adorable orange and brown sweater!), as well as a couple of shirt changes for this little guy. One of the cute shirts reflected his recent construction-themed birthday party- so thoughtfully and lovingly planned.

We were so honored when the H Family got in touch with us and said they wanted to make the drive from out of state for us to photograph their family portraits! They loved our work and wanted some creative and fun photos 🥰 After talking about some location options together, we met up at South Milwaukee’s Grant Park (Seven Bridges) where we were able to capture a variety of looks between the woods, bridges, beach and prairie. Their middle kid, Danielle, is also a senior this year so they wanted a bit of a hybrid session to include some senior photos for her, too. And it was wonderful capturing some updated individual portraits of her siblings, Jade and Noah, as well.

It was wonderful seeing this sweet family again! We’ve been photographing Carson since he was a baby, and now his sister Hannah is One! There was another exciting milestone, too, which was their grandparents’ wedding anniversary 😊 We photographed their session at the lovely Whitnall Park in Franklin and Hales Corners, Wisconsin, and the Fall color was fantastic!

Baby Barrett IV is One! We photographed his First Birthday photos at Whitnall Park on a beautiful Fall evening with his parents, Erin and Barrett III. It seems like yesterday that our photographer Christine captured their newborn portraits, and it was so much fun seeing how much he’s grown and his adorable personality!

It was wonderful seeing the T Family again! We photographed their fun and candid family portrait session at Milwaukee’s Lake Park - the same place we photographed Emily and Travis’ engagement session in 2009! 💗 It was so sweet being back there with them, this time with their little ones, Mateo and Kinnin.

We first met Dietrich and Jillian at her sister’s wedding a few years ago, and it was wonderful seeing them again… this time with their 1 year old daughter, Josie! We had a wonderful day for their family portraits at Hubbard Park in Shorewood, WI! The woods, stone tunnel and trees lining the river as the sun shone through were lovely locations for their candid photos throughout the park.

Our team photographer Sarah had a wonderful evening photographing this sweet couple, Sarah and Chris, for their combined engagement and family portrait session! Their son Myer (seems like yesterday that we photographed his newborn photos!) and Sarah’s daughter Tessa joined in part of their session, and it was wonderful seeing all the love between the four of them! Doctors Park in Fox Point was a beautiful late-summer location for their photos.

This sweet family just moved to Milwaukee from the West Coast, and we were happy to welcome them! Joining Christina at their family session were their two inquisitive, kind and energetic kiddos - Catherine and Maddie/Michael - as well as their partner, Scott. South Milwaukee's Grant Park/Seven Bridges made the perfect location with its bridges, woods, open fields and beach. We had so much fun exploring the park together and getting to know each other.

It was wonderful seeing this sweet family again! We photographed Andrea and Shawn’s wedding a few years ago, their newborn session with little Elliott recently (seems like yesterday), and now had the honor of photographing them again for their extended family portraits! Andrea’s mom Maria and niece Madison were in town, so it was perfect timing! Both the kiddos have grown so much since we’ve seen them last, and we had a fun time making our way around Milwaukee’s Humboldt Park for their photos.

It seems like yesterday that our team photographed Harrison’s newborn photos, and it was so exciting celebrating his First Birthday with some family portraits this month! His big sister Audrey and his parents, Heidi and Adam, enjoyed showering him (and each other) with snuggles and fun for their session at South Milwaukee’s Grant Park / Seven Bridges!

Ethan is growing SO fast (as are his adorable curls), and our team photographer, Amanda, had a wonderful time seeing him again with his dads, Jess and Judd, as well as grandparents Marianne and Mel, and his cousin Chloe! The three of them were in town visiting, so it was the perfect time to capture some personal and candid family portraits at their Milwaukee home.

We photographed Meghan and Mike’s wedding a number of years ago as well as maternity photos for them, but this was the first time meeting and photographing their kids! What a wonderful bunch and a fun session! Franklin / Hales Corners’ Whitnall Park was a gorgeous location for their family portraits. There’s nothing like Spring in Wisconsin, and the blossoms from crabapple and redbud trees added the perfect ambiance to their pictures!

Isaac has gotten so big since we saw him last, and it was so much fun hearing all he had to say! He’s so sweet, just like his parents Kim and Andy, and he was so adorably polite throughout their Spring Mini Session at Whitnall Park.

Today is Bridget and Mitch’s 4th wedding anniversary! Their wedding feels like yesterday, and we hope they’re having a wonderful day with their sweet little one, baby Wyatt. He just celebrated his first birthday, too, so this is a very exciting month for them!
