8:46 still working....

Sara's photos are ready for her review on Saturday.. here's a sneak peek.

Five girls...many clothes...

It was a photo party day..5 girls came to model, pose, and just look darn cute. The after party was a dip in the pool.

6:39 PM--I have just finished one of the girls.. it has taken me since they left to get this far, but as I complete each one I will post a blog image or two.
Here's Lauren!

Kailey

I new the pool shots would be my favorite. but it was really hard to pick..Thanks Cindy for being my assistant!

Abbey

This girl knows what she wants, it was a pleasure to work with her. The mosquitoes were a bit daunting, but that didn't stop the pictures from being beautiful!

All In The Family

Mother daughter team work on our last wedding together..mom and daughter learn together sharing our knowledge! Thanks Kate for everything.

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Melissa & Steven

ABW..... our acronym for Another Beautiful Wedding.... Steven might appreciate this being a West Point grad, as were several of the folks in attendance. Everyone came from all over to witness the union & mix of the lucky couple. These kids have it all, great families, great friends, and they're great together... Have fun on the big island you two!

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Amanda & Jason

This wedding will be a sweet closure to our 2008 season of weddings. (Smile) we will celebrate with them because our anniversary is two days later!

Jason will be fun to work with, the banter tonight was a hint to his personality! We have the privilege to see this couple in two weeks at Mandy and Brad's wedding. Great pix guys.. I knew the mosquito infested weeds would pay off!! haha

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Jenny & Kevin

Well it's now 10:04 PM and I said I would have this done when I left this couple at 10 AM!!!

Jenny and Kevin were easy to work with, as long as we kept their interest in each other and not golf..haha---both like to golf, so it was appropriate to take these images at the course.

The bells will chime for this couple next May-a wedding we look forward to photographing, since Jenny is the daughter of my long time colleague from HUHS.

WOW!!! We're blown away by our new designer...

Kim & Scott are the lucky recipients to have our new designer do their book... Wait till you see this one! View it here. Any photographers checking out our blog can contact her for hire.

Dawn

I find it hard to believe that this beautiful mommy will deliver in just a couple of weeks.

Maternity are my favorite photos to do, and I had a great time laughing and sharing the joy with this couple. They had a great sense of humor and adventure---"how about that 70 degree pool!!!brrrrrrrr"

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Katy & Tom

Simply Gorgeous! Even with a slight downpour (which finished as we shot the formals), this couple took it all in stride and had a fabulous party. With a great group of friends like this you just can't go wrong.... Best wishes to you both!

Daddy's girl

When the dust settles tonight, and daddy gets his little sweetie pie to bed, hopefully he'll have time to see just a few of the images we took tonight.

I love how Josh's little girl responds to him, when he talked she listened, smiled, cooed, and was just the best little model possible. Daddy/Daughter bonds are the best, savor every moment of her life, she will always look up to you.

Meet the Parents

Of course it's Christian that runs the show!

My How He's Grown

I've known Christian since he was in mommy's belly....he is a beautiful active boy who has daddy's eyes and mommy's charm. Sneak peak at a whole Bunch of great photos!

More on the NEW Book!

more pix showing the new book choice

As a bride it's important to stand out...be different

Have a look that no one else has, from the dress, to the keepsake album of pictures. That's why we are announcing our newest product created by Artisan and designer-- Melissa Lawler.

These newest books have a custom cover on each, deckle edged watercolor archival paper, a Japanese style stab binding, single art imagery per page, with or without a sloppy border.

Here's a few images to give a taste of what I am talking about.

Michelle

Okay, when it comes to beautiful Seniors in High School, I have a very hard time deciding on which picture to post!! Michelle was the first to choose our cosmetology service, I don't know if that's what made her eyes sparkle, or was it the way the light and color played with the forms of her face? Regardless of what it was this was a fun shoot with a very pretty young lady, in a great setting. Thank you for choosing us to shoot your photos!

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Jessie & Matt

People came from as far away as Hawaii to see these two tie the knot, and it was practically a family reunion for almost everyone in attendance. A spectacular day for a wonderful couple. We were honored to be suggested to the couple by the bride's father, whom Charlie has had the pleasure of working with since 1981, so we've known Jessie since she was born... and can the parents make good babies or what! Matt's not too shabby either...

We hope we can be of service to Jessie's brother at some point in the future (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more). Best wishes to you both!

One plus one equals two... Too much fun! This couple can really count their blessings... Their cake was divided up amongst a number of guests. In the end there was one thing that everyone could agree on, the whole is more than the sum of its parts. Best wishes to you both, have fun honeymooning in Cancun!

Better late than never..blog that is..

We meet with Melissa and Steve on Tuesday, they are a very active couple who have made wedding arrangements via a long distance, since Steven has been at West Point until graduation!

Now that they are in the area Melissa has a chance to show Steve the Wisconsin sites, and they can finalize all of their wedding plans.

Milwaukee Wedding Photographers | Kim & Scott

Nothing could dampen the spirits of these two yesterday, not even the down pour that delayed the ceremony by two hours.... which worked out well, as the reception seemed to start before the wedding -- so by the time the music started the dance floor was filled for the celebration!

We were also lucky that they had decided to have a "First meeting" before the event, so we were able to capture many photos before the tornado sirens went off... We highly recommend this for anyone having an event later in the afternoon...
The first meeting part -- not the tornado!

Your easy going natures made the day a real pleasure for everyone around you, and a shining example of how to handle adversity with graciousness. Best wishes to you both for rolling with whatever may come your way.
