{The Lovely Miss L} Tomah Wisconsin Senior Photographer

Oh.  My.  Gosh!  How gorgeous is this lady?!  We had the pleasure of spending some time over the holiday weekend with her and the rest of my husband's family (she is my brother-in-law's girlfriend).  Of course, I couldn't resist asking her if she'd pose for me and my camera!  (Everyone in my family and many of my friends have discovered that, at some point in their relationship with me, I will ask them to model for me!)  She has these gorgeous tattoos on her shoulders/back.  She's also a very organic person, enjoying nature and the Earth's offerings.  So naturally, when the inspiration of natural styled images struck, she was the first one I turned to!  We spent about 30 minutes before her shoot doing some natural, nude based make-up and a lovely french braid that swept rather haphazardly along the back of her head and fell into a low side ponytail over her shoulder.  I was so happy how feminine and smooth her look was and how her stunning green eyes blended with the amazing foilage we found in Tomah, Wisconsin!  All in all, she was a happy model and I was a happy photographer!

Sisters K & A | Holmen Wisconsin Family Photographer

The holidays are nearing and it's just such a wonderful time to be a portrait photographer!  Not only do we get to see so many awesome families, but we get to have so much fun with the little ones who visit!  Plus, is there really any better Christmas gift than that of an adorable little girl?!  Santa would really have fun getting this one under the tree!  Sometimes it's just all about the silliness!

Plus, this is Little A's gorgeous older sister!  Miss K is such a great helper with her younger sister and was really a joy to photograph!  She is just stunning!

Sneak Peek - Class of 2013 T | La Crosse Wisconsin High School Senior Photographer

Miss T, soon to be a graduate of the class of 2013 from Tomah High School, braved the cold the past week for the absolutely stunning second half of her senior session!  Seriously not kidding about the cold, it was at least 50 degrees (and that's being generous with the warmth).  But she rocked her gorgeous prom dress, without goosebumps and all! 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, la crosse wisconsin family photographer, onalaska wisconsin family photographer, wisconsin family photographer, family photographer, la crosse wisconsin photographer child, child photographer, childrens photography, high school photography, senior photographer, senior photography, high school senior

Sneak Peek - Miss E | Onalaska Wisconsin Child Photographer

Wow, we've been MIA for a bit!  We've been so busy with the amazing couples whose weddings we get to photograph, with 95.7 The Rock producing images for their charity calendar, and with catching up on all the fun behind-the-scenes business stuff (that we procrastinate doing for as long as possible)!  But, recently, we did have this lovely young lady in the studio and what fun it was to photograph her!  Not only is she a stunning girl, she's so outgoing and fun to talk to!  Plus, look are her great curls and cute freckles!  Miss E is quite the model!     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, wisconsin sports photography, wisconsin sports photographer, onalaska sports, onalaska softball, onalaska baseball

The Doll Series | La Crosse Wisconsin Photographer

These two lovely young ladies are actually cousin's of mine who live in Ecuador!  I so rarely get to see them and they are, as you can see, absolutely gorgeous; I take advantage of their visits to the US to work on my latest series whenever I can!  You may recognize the first young woman from a previous series I did of Greek Mythological Women.  Her younger sister (to the right) is transforming into a beautiful young lady and this is the first time I've had a chance to get her in front of my lens for some modeling!  They also have a brother, but he preferred to stay behind the scenes, helping me set up backdrops, move lights, etc.  I'll get him to pose for me, one day!      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

The Doll Series | Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer

Isn't this young lady gorgeous?!  I've had a blast working with her on various modeling projects before and she is so comfortable in front of the camera, it just really makes it easy to accomplish the goals of each session.  Really, having a model can be very tricky at times.  There's a vision each photographer has in their head and during regular portrait sessions, this vision gets meshed together with the client's personality to create the final image.  That's what makes each image so unique to each individual, family. etc. But, when a photographer uses a model to create an image there's a different type of session that occurs.  Models work with the photographer to develop the vision of the artist in order to create the final image.  It such a strange experience because, for as much verbal communication that's occurring, there's even more non-verbal communication occurring.  It can be really frustrating working with a model who doesn't quite understand this so you can see how exciting it is to work with one who makes the entire process so smooth!  Throughout my career, I've had the pleasure of working with a lot of models who give each session their full attention and effort and it has truly been a blast working with them all!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

The Doll Series | Onalaska Wisconsin Photographer

I've been exploring a new series to have a little fun for my personal portfolio.  It's based on antique dolls.  These two lovely ladies are actually sisters and they were awesome during this shoot!  Also, my sister did the make-up and styling for the shoot, which made it so easy to bring the vision alive!  The goal is to see the vacant looks of dolls, their pristine porcelain skin, and the subtle painted details that make these dolls so similar and yet so different.  My goal is to add a few male puppet dolls into the series as well as a few other ladies.  But for now, this small chunk of images will satisfy my photo itch! 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 phootgraphy, central high school wisconsin, wisconsin highschool, aquinas high school

The Calendar Shoots - Ms. A | La Crosse Wisconsin Commercial Photographer

A while back we did a bunch of shoots for 95.7 The Rock's annual charity calendar to benefit The Rock Foundation.  It was such a blast!  We worked with an awesome group of lovely models and got to shoot at a bunch of fun places!  It was really a neat experience and a great way to utilize the skills we don't get to use as much with the kiddos and such - our senior photography skills came in much more handy for this type of assignment!  This one has kind of a funny story with it - I locked my keys in the car right before the shoot and had only grabbed my camera plus one flash before closing the door so we were getting creative!  I think I should lock away more of my equipment every day!  Kidding, luckily I grabbed what I really wanted to use anyway, but it was a bit of an adventure!  =)  Anyway, we'll slowly be putting up some of the best images, including a bunch of the ones featured in the calendar.  This was from the first of 12 shoots (when it was still warm enough to stand in the water) and we can't wait to share more as time goes on!
