welcome.

Hello and welcome to my photoblog. I am delighted to have you here! This blog serves as a way of sharing my most recent photo sessions with clients and their family and friends, and is also the first place to hear recent announcements about the studio as well as special blog-reader only discounts.

I am a primarily natural light portrait photographer based out of Madison, Wisconsin. My focus is on babies, children and families, although I also love to shoot a limited number of weddings per year. My portrait sessions take place entirely on location -- either at your home or at another location around Madison. I love to explore new places, so I'm very open to your suggestions. And of course, I have some favorite spots that I'm always ready to explore again as well.

In addition to my blog, please also check out my main website (it is the "my website" link on the menu above). If you have any questions or would like to book a session, please click on the "contact me" link in the menu above to send me an e-mail. Thanks again for stopping by, and please enjoy your visit!

style.

My approach toward photography is deceptively simple: catch real moments of your children really being themselves. Silly giggles, sweet kisses from mommy, tickles from a big sister, laughing while watching doggie run through the park... These are the moments that make up real life. These are the moments from childhood that pass by all too fast. And these moments, to me, are where the real beauty of childhood resides. The same philosophy governs my approach to wedding photography.

My style is largely photojournalistic and non-obtrusive, while at the same time I am always working to create beautiful and lasting memories of life as it unfolds. The most common words used to describe my photographs are the ones I have chosen as the tagline for my studio: Modern. Fun. Real. Life. People often comment that my photographs have a sense of warmth and emotion to them -- which I consider the highest compliment possible.

wrapping up a year.

This is another one of my Baby Sprout clients. I photographed her newborn session, and then I was lucky enough to see her three more times in her first year. She’s a one year old and not a baby anymore, and this was the last session of the four. It’s always a little bittersweet for...

in the park.

I went to the nature park for this session a little while back (back when I thought that weekend was just a fluke and the warm weather would be returning shortly… ha! Little did I know). I loved this location! Such a variety of scenery there. I did notice on the way out that there...

the epitome of autumn.

I had to make a lot of collages for this blog post, so that I wouldn’t totally overwhelm you all with the sheer number of images. I am in love with this photo session. The little girl was cute beyond words, so very happy, and had some of the most soulful eyes I have ever...

little nature girl.

This blog sneak peek is a little bit overdue. It was a few weekends back that I ventured to Lake Geneva (Bigfoot State Park, to be exact) to photograph sweet little C and her parents. They were brave enough to schedule a photo session while they were camping with C for the first time —...

up north.

This was a special extended session. It involved some absolutely breathtaking scenery, one of my favorite little models (you’ve seen her a bunch of times before) and her beautiful pregnant mom.  A bit of explanation is needed… the mom-to-be is a friend of mine, and she invited me up to their absolutely beautiful cabin in...

the smiley baby and the rockstar.

Time for 6 month photos of Miss E, one of my favorite little girls… with some bonus photos of her super cool 2.5 year old brother. I won’t even bother talking again about how much I love this age. Because really, if you have a baby who looks like this for 95% of her...

mr e. and miss e.

Time for the photo session of Mr. E and his little sister, Miss E. They came into the studio for a session a while back, and it was pretty fun going through these photos and remembering the craziness that morning. I’m feeling short on words today, so I’ll just let the cuteness of these...

Spring. Green.

It was a beautiful summer evening when I photographed little Mr. W and his beautiful family. This session took place in Spring Green, at a lovely little spot I had never been to before. It had special meaning to the family since it was the same place where W’s parents had gotten married five years...

Just one little peek…

… at a family session from this morning. Because I saw this one and it made me smile. 14 months, 18 months, and 3 years. They are cousins, and oh my — they were fun!

Sweet and happy little man.

I photographed little A when he was a newborn, and he recently came down to the studio for his 6 month photo session. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before, but I LOVE this age. Such a happy little guy. Lots of eye contact. And to get a smile, we just had to keep holding new...
