Ainsley is starting her senior year at Brookfield Central High School, and we had a great evening for her Milwaukee senior photos in the Historic Third Ward! We love the variety of locations for her pictures that we were able to incorporate, all within a couple blocks of each other! Capturing an industrial look, a city park, the RiverWalk and different architectural styles, we had fun making our way around the city for her portraits and talking about softball!

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.

Morgan is about to start her senior year at Brookfield Central High School, and we had a perfect summer evening for her senior portraits at her family’s beach house in rural Wisconsin. Their beachfront property was the perfect location, too, to showcase her passion for volleyball! We’re happy to incorporate props in a natural, meaningful way, and we also paid homage to her love of reading with a stack of books as she relaxed on an adirondack chair.

Cam’s about to start her senior year at DSHA High School, and we had a great evening for her senior portraits! We started at Black Cat Alley, and her black and white outfit was a great pop against the colorful and artistic city murals! Afterward, we headed to downtown Milwaukee’s lakefront where we captured the lake, trees, Milwaukee Art Museum and cityscape as her backdrops. They were such versatile locations for her senior 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.

What feels like both ages ago and yesterday all at the same time, we photographed Amy and Paul’s wedding. It was such an honor and so exciting to see them again, this time at their outdoor newborn session with sweet Baby Quinn. Their backyard was a lovely and convenient location, and it was nice and easy for them to pop inside for outfit changes, to grab necessities, etc. We eased into the session with some swaddling and a little nursing break, and Quinn was then happy as a clam the rest of her session!

Val and Grant had a gorgeous day for their Milwaukee wedding! Their engagement session seems like yesterday, and we were really looking forward to their big day! It didn’t disappoint, and their day started with getting-ready photos at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center- the same venue as their ceremony and reception. It was so convenient having everything all in one place! Val shared a sweet First Look with her dad, and Grant had fun with his groomsmen before the two lovebirds met up for their First Look on the stunning staircase of the hotel.

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.

Keaton is starting his senior year at Hamilton High School, and we had a great evening for his senior portraits! We started along Milwaukee’s RiverWalk for some modern industrial photos, and then we headed to Riverside Park for a more natural look. They made great locations for his senior photos, and we love the variety they offered. He also incorporated his love of football by bringing his helmet and ball as props for some of his pictures.

Erin and Megan had THE perfect day for their gorgeous outdoor wedding at Milwaukee’s very own Villa Terrace Decorate Arts Museum. The day started at The Westin Milwaukee where these two excited brides got ready for the big event with their wedding party. Our team photographer Sarah captured all the details as well as so much emotion 💓

Nathan’s going to be starting his senior year at West Allis Central High School, and we had a great night for his senior portraits along downtown Milwaukee’s lakefront by Discovery World, the Milwaukee Art Museum and Lakeshore State Park. The locations offered so much variety to his 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!

We’ve had a wonderful time getting to know these two, and their wedding day didn’t disappoint! Things got started at The Brewhouse Inn & Suites for their getting-ready photos. A highlight was them reading letters to each other… so sweet! Soon it was time for their First Look, and we just love the expressions on their faces, complete with tears of joy.

Aimee and Rob had such a fantastic wedding day! Our team photographer, Amanda, was just taken with these two and how madly in love they are. She observed Aimee turn to Rob and say, “I just love you so much!,” and their sweet relationship really comes through in their photos💓 Mercantile Hall was a great location for both their outdoor ceremony and their wedding reception! The string lights, brick, charming gate and Edison bulbs all gave their wedding the perfect touch, complete with their vintage camper bar Suesanna.

We had a great evening for Nathan’s senior portraits along downtown Milwaukee’s lakefront! It was perfect golden hour lighting, and the soft clouds in the sky were the finishing touch. The Milwaukee Art Museum made such an inspiring location for his senior pictures, and we made our way around the stunning work of architecture for a variety of looks.

Natalie’s going to be starting her senior year at Oak Creek High School (and then she plans to attend college for nursing), and we had a great time making our way around Milwaukee for her senior portraits! We met up at Swing Park, and the bridge was such a great location to start her city pictures.

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.

JJ & Justine love kayaking, swimming, hiking and spending time outdoors, so the beach at South Milwaukee’s Grant Park and the Seven Bridges hiking trail made great locations for their engagement photos!

Nathan loves spending time in downtown Milwaukee with his friends, so photographing his senior portraits in the city seemed like the perfect choice! He really likes the areas of the city that blur the lines of development and nature, so the Third Ward and Veterans Park were great locations for his senior photos! We started his senior session in Catalano Square and made our way down Broadway before heading to the RiverWalk. It was fun hearing about the places he’s traveled and his plans of attending UW-Madison!

A lot has changed since we last saw this sweet family! They’ve moved… and they’re expecting! It was wonderful seeing them again for their family portraits and maternity photos at South Milwaukee’s Grant Park (Seven Bridges)! Nicole looked radiant- she definitely has that pregnancy glow! The woods, beach, trails and bridges gave us a lot of variety for their portrait locations, and we even ended up with some Spring blossoms on the trees and some wild flowers!
