knock knock – is this thing on?

well hello there!  it’s been awhile, hasn’t it?  when i wrote the most recent blog carousel post, i noticed that this blog hadn’t been updated in over two months!  that’s especially crazy because i have no less than one zillion sessions that i’m dying to post.

2012 started off with a(nother) new studio location.  i know, right?   i just think of it as my tour of milwaukee’s third ward studio spaces.  you’ll love it, though, and as soon as you see it, you’ll see why i moved again so quickly.  it’s bright and airy and bright and peaceful and did i mention bright? the window light, oh how i missed that.  nine HUGE windows bring in glorious natural light.  cream city brick, funky stained concrete, really really awesome.  as soon as the prints are up on the wall, i’ll post some photos for you.

let’s start with images from last fall’s portrait day, since i get the most requests to post these  (and yes, i will get them up on facebook for you guys, too!).  aren’t they FUN?  i love portrait day, it’s such a great way to grab a few really awesome photographs of your kids in between regular sessions.

are you ready for a LOT of photos?  they may take a bit to load!

 

blog carousel | alternative cameras

i think any professional photographer would agree that publicly posting their random daily snapshots can be a little bit of a nerve wracking experience.  this month’s theme for our blog carousel is “alternative cameras” and while i had big plans of pulling out one of my medium format cameras, or at least my trusty little point-n-shoot, that just never happened because the truth of the matter is, i use my iphone to document just about everything in our day to day lives.

a walk to the park on the last dry day of winter (right before milwaukee saw it’s first snow of the season).  we found a nest of some sort, and my girls invented some very elaborate game involving sticks, counting down and hiding.

a shot of rachel and me – she’s 7 now, can you believe it?   and two of ellie’s many faces – i love her face so much, i want to eat it up!

rachel in the snow, trying to catch snowflakes on her tongue.  my girls are lucky to have a daddy born and raised in wisconsin because i prefer sit in a warm house and watch the snow play from the window!  (edited with snapseed – an iphone app that i love love love – you can very quickly and easily edit any photo taken with your iphone.  it’s great!)
