Nichole & Aaron: ESession

"Stop licking the slimy stick." - Aaron
"Your button is poking my eye out." - Nichole.

It was a chilly Saturday morning. Only 15 degree's outside, which was still 30 degree's warmer than the day before. I pulled up to their car and could tell they were ready to go.

Nichole & Aaron met in High School. Having just finished college, they are headed north this summer to get married in Canada, eh. Then it is back to Wisconsin for a huge reception which we will be photographing.

Thanks you two for being such great sports in the chilly winter wonderland! Fun was had. You can tell by checking out the sneak peeks:


^Taken just after they tossed snow up in the air, which is the whiteness you see behind them.

^Notice the amount of snow quickly disappear from his hands compared to hers.

^Yes, we either sat on ice or icy rocks literally in the water.

^"Cheesy" picture request in front of their old High School. : )

Little Star

Normally Mike is the one who writes up the blogs, but since there hasn't been one in a while (life has gotten busy, sorry!) I've decided to write one :O)

When I put Aubrey to bed is one of my favorite times of the entire day. Not just because it's alone time for Mike and I, but because I get to have that one-on-one moment with Aubrey. We take turns singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" to each other a few times before it's hugs and kisses and night, night. The way Aubrey's head sways back and forth, looking at me, smiling, as I sing so off key is priceless. In her mind, I'm sure I'm the greatest singer on Earth, next to Beyonce and those Single Ladies. But I mind you, I am not ;o) I decided to capture Aubrey singing "Twinkle" to her baby as she was rocking her yesterday. But I didn't get to my phone until she was at the end of her song... She did sing another verse for your viewing pleasure! Grab your tickets, buckets of popcorn, and beverages and enjoy the show :O)


(shot with my blackberry, sorry the quality isn't that great)

Stay tuned for more 5th Street Photography images coming soon! We have an engagement session this Saturday :O)

Rae: Child session

^Rae, meet everyone. Everyone, meet Rae.

Rae is a super-happy and smiley 6 month old. Especially for not having napped yet before I came over. She worked the camera while pulling apart her pearl necklaces, petting her dog Jake, and having several wardrobe changes. Here are a few sneak peeks from this mornings shoot...

^Seriously, adorable!

^We re-created an image from her older sister that was taken 3 years ago using the same clothes and rug! It's truly uncanny how similar the both look :O)
^puppy lovin.

Thanks for having us out! Rae is an absolute doll :O)
