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.

playing catch up

I am behind in blogging, but I cannot stop myself from posting a full blog entry about this lovely family that came in for their session in the studio in February. You can tell it’s an older session if you look closely at the trees out the window — very bare! Their little guy has...

party of five.

Time for photos from a more recent winter session. This one took place at their home and features not one, not two, but three gorgeous children (and a furry dog too!). All of them were lots of fun — I had a great time editing these photos. I love the fact that they gave...

almost perfect.

Time for another session from last fall that I never got a chance to blog. When I was going back through these photos recently to prepare them for the blog, I remembered again how much I enjoyed this session. C’s mom and I talked at length before the session… and covered everything from location to...

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...

completely booked for 2009.

As of a couple of weeks ago, I am completely booked for 2009.  With my second child due in December, I am taking on a reduced schedule in early 2010 (I will be photographing current Baby Sprout and past clients only) but will be back to my normal schedule starting in April 2010.  If you...

adorable family.

I first photographed the H family last summer. Back then, little O was their only child. This year, they ventured down to Madison from Milwaukee (thank you for that!) and I was lucky enough to photograph not only Mr. O but also his new little sister, Miss N.  How things change in a year! One...

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...

quick update, an apology, and a few sneaky peeks

First, the update: the studio will be closed starting tomorrow (September 12) through Monday, September 21.  I will be sure to respond to all inquiries and questions when I return.
Then the apology: as a related note, I have recently discovered that, due to some phone switchover shenanigans, I have possibly missed a bunch of voicemails...

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 —...
