We’ve had the opportunity to photography some pretty incredible weddings. And, I’m very far behind on blogging, so I’... Continue reading...

I was excited when Julie, someone I've known since our days of high school soccer practice, started asking questions about my offerings for wedding photography. Her and Matt had a destination wedding, but were planning a small reception after they got back home. We decided to meet at the Port Washington Marina, a place we worked together for years, and also to the bluff to take photos - Port Washington is beautiful even on a foggy, not so summer like day!
Julie looked beautiful of course! ... Continue reading...

What makes senior photos fun . . . making them UNIQUE!
We started at a park entrance, found a bridge, laid in the grass, went to the beach, changed clothing at least 3 times, accessorized, jumped, laughed, and in general. . . we had a lot of fun!
Thanks for such a fun, action packed photo shoot - I can't wait to show you the rest of your photos! Continue reading...

For this engagement shoot the couple requested more 'natural' photos. They didn't want to be too posed.
The perception that most people have about natural "photo journalistic' photos is that they truly happen all naturally. This is typically not true. Some posing does take place but once the couple is set up. . . I tell them to talk, or laugh, and just have fun while I click away capturing their fun. This couple was GREAT at just having fun, and there was definitely lots of laughing.
Tha... Continue reading...

There are so many awesome charities available that collect and give great amounts of money to those less fortunate. Many charities offer easy ways to give a small amount each month and you can be part of a large change all over the world – I love hearing about this generosity! If there is a segment on the news, or I watch a TV show with this type of theme I’ll be in tears for sure. I think that each of us has talents that we can share with those around us whether it is a smile, a skill... Continue reading...

In the digital age, taking a good photo is only half the fun. Playing with editing options and falling in love with Photoshop is all part of being a photographer! My style of photography is one where I want you to look natural; where your smiles are real, your facial expressions are natural, and you genuinely are having fun while getting your photo taken. My editing style echoes this. I love special effects and definitely enjoy 'fixing' any problems so that your eye isn't drawn to that on... Continue reading...
