Sneak Peek - The L & C Family | La Crosse Wisconsin Family Photographer

This was another family we got to spend sometime with when we were up doing portraits just outside the cities in Minnesota.  What a fun group!  Grandparents, Aunt, Mom and Dad; this little guy has quite the loving family!  He just turned two and was all set to celebrate his birthday the following day, so it was quite an exciting shoot.  Being two, sitting still for a few shots was not high on his priority list, but he managed to let us get a few great shots, which made it all worthwhile!  La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, west salem WI photographer, west salem baby photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photogrpaher, baby photographer la crosse, baby photographer onalaska, onalaska wi baby phtoographer, la crosse wi baby photographer

Sneak Peek - The A Family | La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer

How beautiful is a brand new family?!  This wonderful couple recently welcomed their newest family member, Baby J.  Not only are they adoring parents, their son is a wonderful little baby!  We traveled to Brooklyn Park, Minnesota to meet this little guy and it was quite a fun session!  You may remember his parents from a blog post a while back of their engagement photos.  I can't wait to watch their family grow as the years go by!   La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, west salem WI photographer, west salem baby photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photogrpaher, baby photographer la crosse, baby photographer onalaska, onalaska wi baby phtoographer, la crosse wi baby photographer

Sneak Peek - Soon-To-Be-Senior T | La Crosse Wisconsin Senior Photographer

Seniors, especially as of late, have really become one of my favorite type of images to create!  There's just so much style, energy, and personality that accompanies these shoots, which makes it even more fun for me!  Tomah High School, class of 2013 student, T, was no exception - a blast to work with, leading to a giant file of amazing images!   La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photographer, high school senior photography, central high school Wisconsin, Wisconsin high school, aquinas high school, la crosse WI senior photographer, onalaska WI senior photographer, Wisconsin senior photography, high school photographer, Tomah high school photographer, tomah high, tomah wisconsin senior photographer, tomah wi

Sneak Peek - Baby B | Onalaska Wisconsin Baby Photographer

Little boys are made of frogs and snails and puppy dog tails; at least that's how we're going to phrase it for this little guy.  Not only is he a tough cop on the mean streets of Onalaska (I've been so lucky lately to be able to photograph some of the cute kiddos of La Crosse and Onalaska's finest), he's also a family guy who loves to spend a quality day in the park with Mom and Dad!  His dad caught that little frog for him, but he was a bit more interested in poking and squishing it than holding it!  But, he made it through the 90 degree heat and helped me get a whole bunch of adorable shots.  And, his mom, who I met when she enrolled in a few of my courses I teach at Western Technical College, is also currently assisting me on a big charity photo project we're working on for a local radio station (95.7 The Rock).  The three of them are such a wonderful family, I can't wait to see more of baby B as he gets bigger!

Sneak Peek - The A Family | La Crosse Wisconsin Family Photographer

Four generations - that's how many are in this photo!  Amazing, right?!  Four generations of women, what a wonderful legacy all these women have created for this little lady!  What a joy it is to create an image with such meaning behind it!

Sneak Peek - Soon-To-Be Senior T | Tomah Wisconsin Senior Photographer

How lovely is this young lady?!  She's not only gorgeous, but she's really a joy to be around!  T is our first 2013 Senior Rep and we had a blast doing her mini session this weekend!  She's very friendly, and so is her mom, who came along for the session.  They were so easy to work with, we ended up shooting until 9 pm when we lost the light!  Needless to say, this mini session became a maxi session, but I just couldn't help myself!  When us photographers get such awesome subjects in front of the lens, it's quite hard to stop shooting!  La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photographer, high school senior photography, central high school Wisconsin, Wisconsin high school, aquinas high school, la crosse WI senior photographer, onalaska WI senior photographer, Wisconsin senior photography, high school photographer, Tomah high school photographer, tomah high, tomah wisconsin senior photographer, tomah wi

Sneak Peek - Baby B | Onalaska Wisconsin Baby Photographer

Sometimes these small (and very quick) little moments happen that just make you smile.  This was one of those moments.  Baby B was quite a smiley guy - off camera - but decided that he wasn't all that interested in showing us those new pearly whites during his session.  But, when it came to these super-awesome balloons that his mom brought, he was quite interested!  There's just something about these tiny little guys learning about the big world around them that is quite fun to watch!  And at only one year old, this little guy has quite a lot to learn about!       La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, west salem WI photographer, west salem baby photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photogrpaher, baby photographer la crosse, baby photographer onalaska, onalaska wi baby phtoographer, la crosse wi baby photographer

Sneak Peek - C & J Wedding | La Crosse Wisconsin Wedding Photographer

Another beautiful wedding took place last week and we had the pleasure of photographing their joyous day! The neat part of this one was that it took place on a very well-know local boat, The La Crosse Queen! I can only hope to be as creative as my clients when it comes to my own wedding!  C & J are such a nice couple and their wedding was so full of love, it was a joy to photograph!  J, the bride, was stunning in her draped lace and sheer fabric dress, awesome blue flats, and gorgeous blue jewels, especially that necklace!

The wonderful details of their wedding were nicely coordinated too!  And, you wouldn't know it by the look of it, but the bride's flowers had to be replaced at the last minute, literally about an hour before the boat left the dock!  The wind came up and whipped them into the Mississippi, but the bridesmaids and moms were quick to act and get a replacement bouquet in the nick of time!

With a wonderful group making up the wedding party, it was really a wonderful event!  The best part of our job is getting to know all the great people we work with and this crew was no exception - they were all awesome and so cooperative, helping to ensure the most amount of amazing images in such a short time!

There were some tearful toasts from the brides sisters, who were co-maid-of-honors (don't ask who is #1 and who is #2 - that was left humorously undefined!) and the best man, who was the groom's father.  Also, we were given a piece of the cake by the bride's mom and it was absolutely delicious (raspberry filling and all)!

The boat sailed into the night with the whole crowd dancing on the top deck!  There was even a lovely, nearly-full moon to top off the photos!  Plus, this couple have an amazing story of survival and triumph, which made the appearance of the groom's Live Strong band very special!  We couldn't have asked for a better couple weekends and a better set of couples to kick of our 2012 wedding season!

Sneak Peek - Little E | La Crosse Wisconsin Child Photographer

There is just something about the big, innocent eyes of little ones that just draws me in!  They're so honest and unassuming, full of kindness and simplicity; lately, I've become quite addicted to this type of close portraiture, especially with kids.  This little lady was no exception, with her stunning brown eyes and subtle smile.  Plus, she has an absolutely wonderful personality to accompany her gorgeous curls and lovely face!      La Crosse Wisconsin Baby Photographer, Baby Photography, La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer, Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer, Holmen Wisconsin Photographer, West Salem Wisconsin Photographer, WI, Endless Images, Photographer La Crosse, Photographer Wisconsin, Wisconsin Photographer, Minnesota Photographer, Winona Minnesota Photogrpaher, la crosse WI photographer, la crosse WI photography, child photographer, kid photography, Onalaskawisconsin photographer, onalaskawi baby photographer
