Abby + Connor had a picture-perfect wedding day! I love that they trusted me as we made our way around for photos so when I said “Ooh! Let’s get some in this car port,” they were like, “ok!”

Lauren + Christian had the perfect evening for their maternity photos at Grant Park’s Seven Bridges! They had been to the park before, but not this trail so it was fun showing them around and exploring with them! I loved getting to know these two as they’re embarking on the exciting journey of parenthood ❤️

Gabi loves dancing, listening to music and traveling, and it was fun incorporating some of her dance moves in her senior pictures! 🤩

She loves spending time in the city so we met up in Milwaukee's Third Ward during golden hour. After a daytime look, we captured some more dramatic nighttime shots, too! ✨

Jessica and Rob’s wedding day started at Milwaukee Marriott Downtown. They had all the fun getting-ready vibes with toasts, finishing touches, and new ironing techniques 😉 After their First Look and some portraits at the hotel, we headed to City Lights Brewing Co. for them to have fun with their wedding party and capture a few more photos.

Alex + Katie met in a theater lighting class at @uwmilwaukee, became friends, and their friendship eventually blossomed into something more ❤

Katie loves Alex's intelligence, humor, listening skills, loyalty, love of animals, and kindness. Alex loves Katie's smile, her kind and generous nature, her humor, the depth to which she cares about other people, her supportiveness, and her emotional intelligence. They're such a wonderful match!

Adam was thrilled to join Luke and Paige in Newland, North Carolina for their mountain destination wedding, which was so personal, intimate, and emotional ❤️

The two of them walked into their intimate ceremony together, which included each guest doing a reading, a very proud little Ring Dog, and a LEGO unity ceremony. Everything was them, 100%!

Kat and Maki were both in high school theatre crew, and they got to know each other over several performances. On the last show of their final year, Maki “finally mustered the courage” to ask Kat out and the rest is history!

Maki said, “I love Kat’s sense of humor, her compassion for animals, her love of art and nature. Her honesty and candor is something I’ve always appreciated about her character. She is beautiful, fun, and warm. I feel at home next to her.”

Our high school senior sessions are relaxed and fun! We love to bring out personalities and create fresh and modern photos for you. We’re inspired by who you are, in addition to great locations and fantastic light (whether stunning “golden hour” or lights that we set up for some dramatic and stylish nighttime photos.) With creative perspectives we will capture some truly one-of-a-kind portraits for you along with some timeless, classic images that will meet your yearbook requirements.

Here are 6 tips for you to make the most of your senior session:

Do you & your partner want to spend more time together on your wedding day instead of hiding from each other? Do you want to enjoy your cocktail hour mingling & celebrating with your family & friends? Then a First Look may be perfect for you!

A First Look is a great option for couples whose ceremony and reception times are close together. Taking most of your photos before the ceremony allows you to really make the most of your wedding day and of course your portrait time too!

Are you considering getting ready photography coverage on your big day? So much buzz and excitement happens during this part of the day! Maybe you want a lot of coverage or maybe just a little or maybe none at all - We’re happy with whatever you decide! - We want your Getting Ready coverage to be just right for you.

We can arrive at the tail end for finishing touches - adjusting your tie, putting on your veil or jewelry, plus a little fun with those in the room. Or we can start earlier and photograph all the details - your attire, shoes, invitation suite, etc. Then we’ll capture you getting dressed with the help of your most important people and end with some portraits. We recommend 60-90 minutes for full getting ready coverage while 30-45 minutes is usually just right for finishing touches coverage.

Felix is One! Our photographer Shannon loved seeing this sweet family again! She captured Anna & Mike's maternity portraits, their newborn session when he was a little peanut, and now these adorable and fun photos of them celebrating such an exciting milestone 🥰

They met us at Brewhouse Inn & Suites where Felix loved exploring, checking out all the fun furniture, playing with his rocking horse, and showing off his awesome clapping skills 👏

It was fun meeting up with the V family this Fall for portraits of them at Boerner Botanical Gardens! Their littles, Arthur and Sophia, are so sweet! Parents, Angela & Tristram, described their family as "chaos & cuddles," which is just adorable.

The weather shifted that day and ended up calling for rain, but they didn't mind having fun in the sprinkles, and they decided to still do the session. The rain gave such a fall mood to their photos- love it!

Chloe's a senior at Dominican High School and loves spending time with her cat, reading, driving around, and hanging out with her friends. She's involved in the technical theater department, and also likes jewelry making, painting and drawing.

After graduation, she plans to go to UW-Madison to major in psychology and minor in childhood development to start her journey in becoming a childhood therapist.

David and Tara had a lovely winter day for their December wedding! The day started at @saintkatearts where they each got ready with family and their wedding party. They were both so excited to see each other, and they didn't have to wait much longer!

Soon it was time for their First Look outside of the hotel. Miranda captured a few portraits of the lovebirds along the @milwaukeeriverwalk before everyone made their way to @riverclubmequon for the big event. We love the cozy elegance with the lit candles, and their ceremony was officiated by a friend which made it so personal!

Absolutely loved seeing what Rob at OSO IN LOVE designed for this fun and simply gorgeous styled shoot! He based his design on Golden Age Glamour, and he didn’t disappoint! The color palette, shine and details came together just perfectly, and this vendor group was a dream team! So happy that we could be a part of it 😍

I met up with Reagan last week for her senior portraits, and we had such a fun evening! She loves the city and is also a painter, so Black Cat Alley made the perfect place to start her photos. We made our way around the East Side and Third Ward, inspired by all the different textures, colors, city lights, and evening sun. Loved creating a look for her that was edgy and outside the box!

She's in her senior year at Whitewater High School and in the process of looking at different options for college. Best of luck, Reagan, and thanks so much for the honor of being your photographer!

Beach photos don't have to happen in the warm months! I met up with Brianna & Ryan at Grant Park's Seven Bridges, and we had a lovely late afternoon for their engagement photos! Brianna's mom Tammy was also in town from Arizona, so we captured a few mother-daughter photos while they were together as well (stay tuned!).

B+R got engaged last month on their anniversary, and they also just closed on their first house together! So many exciting milestones for them 🎉

Jilan and Jamie had a castle wedding overseas and were excited to celebrate with even more of their loved ones at their Milwaukee wedding reception! Discovery World made the perfect venue for their guests to enjoy the water and cityscape views, and everyone was dressed to the nines!

Adam loved hearing their story and seeing everyone come together for such a wonderful evening of love and fun.

Megan got in touch with us saying that to celebrate her parents' 40th Wedding Anniversary, they were planning on a family portrait session, and I was so excited to be a part of it! Megan with her husband Adam and their daughter, Megan's two brothers and their parents all met up with me at South Milwaukee's Grant Park / Seven Bridges. We had a lovely Fall evening with GORGEOUS color!

Little Madeline had so much fun playing in the leaves with her parents, goofing around with her uncles Zak and Sam, and giving big smiles to her grandparents!
