Heather + Cory

I had a great time shooting Heather & Cory’s engagement photos! Heather wanted to get some yellow balloons! How fun is that? very! we had an interesting time at the clown store on the west side, i think it brought us all closer together.  The mmoca stairs is one of the best places for indoor photos in Madison. Then we headed to a park where i think heather’s hair did this beautiful feather/wind look.  I look forward to Heather & Cory’s wedding, they are going to make a super awesome photo station! Yesssss!

Emma!

Emma & her mom Penny were a delight & a joy. I think they might even be friends in their regular life.

We went to the union and made a couple other stops along the way. Oh, and yes to the lake. There was some trespassing. But it’s fine, I promise.

What high school do you go to? Marshall High School

What are your plans for next year? Next year I plan to attend the University of Minnesota-TwinCities and majoring in Communications and minoring in Spanish

Any fun stories from your senior photo session? Trespassing in backyards to get pictures by the water in my rainboots or climbing down rocks by the union, thinking forsure I was going to fall.

What is one of your favorite senior memories? going to a Hawaiian/Beach themed student section dress up night at a boys basketball game, dressed as a tacky tourist.  We had floaties and a mini pool…we went all out for the occasion.

Isthmus photoshoot!

I shot brett newski this weekend for the isthmus. the story is about how he is going to start booking shows for the Pub on state st. I think. I got there a little early and found some fun locations within a blocks radius. The photos in front of the actual Pub sign were a total bust. I hope they don’t use those in the paper.

brett does some fun things in life I learned. like he is in a famous band. i decided he’s famous. he might not be. he goes to the gym on sunday afternoons and started his own graphic design business. that makes him an entrepreneur! to stalk brett start here:

I’ve decided i”m gong to try to write more on the blog, words are not my strongest…strongest whatever. do people want to hear words? maybe. you always skip over them right?

Baby Ruby!

I got to shoot a cute cute baby! she was 3 months old. I couldn’t believe how easy it was, she didn’t even cry once. I think the camera really loves her.

Jill & Nick!

I shot Jill & Nick’s engagement photos in the Willy St. area and then we went to the water. Jill bid on the engagement session at a silent auction, and won! I wonder if it felt like winning to her? They are a totally cute couple. Our first scheduled session was rained out and Jill wanted her people in Texas to know Wisconsin has nice weather. We were all happy the sun came out a couple days later. WISCONSIN IS THE BEST! (mostly.)

Alyssa!

I shot Alyss’s senior photos! She’s play the violin and that’s pretty awesome. another awesome thing about Alyssa is that she has 2 different eye colors!  We had some good times exploring Madison. 

Shawn + Chris

I took Shawn & Chris’s engagement photos a couple weeks ago. They were really good in front of the camera are into fun. Their wedding is next weekend in Spring Green and I think it’s going to be a really good one! We took the photos at the Kohl Center, State St. & The Union. At the Kohl center we were reenacting their first photo together, I wonder how accurate we were. I’m going to guess not very. There were up for anything, i love that.

Sophie

I took Sophie’s senior photos the other day. I think we had some good adventures on the East side. Senior photos are some of my most favorite photos to take. I still have some sessions available! call to set up a session.

Family photo!

I shot a family photo a couple weeks ago. I really liked the family, they were totally into fun. they even did some handstands!

Becky & Bennett

I’m going to shoot Becky & Bennett’s wedding in June! After the engagemenet photos we went to the Context store to look at cute boy clothes and Bennett got an awesome pair of jeans that i imagine he’s going to wear everyday for casual friday at the office. Becky was very supportive of the jean buying. i think they make a really great team!

it’s Katie Krueger! an entrapreneural genious! i think.

I took a head shot for Katie Krueger because she wrote a book. how cool is that. i’m going to say very. very cool. 

I met her a couple years ago because we were on the same kickball team!  katie has 4 websites! she must be very busy. i just looked at the http://www.katiekrueger.com/blog. i liked it. here are the other 3:

she writes grants and does other cool things i’m sure. i kinda think she’s foxy. right?

Goat Radio

It’s a band! I would like to do more band photos so i was so happy when the Goat Radio people called me to do photos. I would call them “team” and i think they liked that. maybe. I haven’t seen them play but i imagine they are super fun. I bet they sing romantic songs about girls. maybe not.

holly is broken!

holly went snowboarding and broke both of her wrists! she didn’t even make it down the hill her first run. 

she does seem very positive about the whole thing. i guess, what else can you do?

It’s a birthday party!

Abby turned 18. She brought 9 of her friends to the studio to take some really fun birthday photos.

I liked them. and they had some really good jokes.

Erin & Jimmy!

I am going to shoot Erin & Jimmy’s wedding this summer. I think they are very fun = very fun wedding. They were up for anything, even on a cold day. That’s what i love, enthusiasm for photos!

Mad rollin’ dolls.

I shot the team photos for the Madison roller derby team The Resevoir Dolls.

Illinois.

Tina, Pat, and I were in Illinois and i took some engagementy photos of them. 

then there was this kid in front of the pet store and he bought a mouse. 

that’s pretty awesome. 

Tina and Pat are in love.

Autumn & Tyson

I’m going to be shooting Autumn & Tyson’s wedding next summer, I’m super excited for it!

These are their engagement photos.

Lynal!

I took these photos of Lynal, Hemmingway,  and their family last Sunday. The windiest day ever! It even snowed about 14 snowflakes 10 minutes before the shoot happened. They do know a about secret unwindy place which is very awesome. I sorta thought Lynals parents look like they should have have a band together….you know very hip parents. 

did i spell lynal’s name right? maybe? cutest boy name ever.

TWINS!

This is Winnie & Dash! They are very cute. My favorite part is that they would sometimes look at me like an adult and very unkid like. i thought it was funny. I think if they could talk they would have some really good jokes. I guess they talk….just not very well.  (that’s my joke.) 

Nick tells jokes

I photographed Nick Mortensen yesterday, he is a comedian here in the Madison.  He has a case of the ADHD (right?) and he tells stories fast…. and then we’re on to the next story and the next story… It’s very entertaining. I don’t have to worry about making any small talk.
