Daddy's Little Girl V | Milwaukee Photographer

I sort of feel bad for the Daddy of this little sweetheart.  She is full of cuteness!  And her secret weapon is that pout-y face...who could say no to that? The piggy-tales make it all the more dangerous!  Daddy is certainly in for it...but since she is only 2 we can revel in the cuteness of it all. 

She did not want to sit still...she was quite the busy body.  Reminded me so much of my little beauty just a year ago. 

Even at 2, she is already rocking a fabulous style!  I absolutely LOVE her pink cowgirl boots.  Why don't they make those in my size?  The contrast of her country chic outfit against the urban backdrop of the Third Ward made her my urban cowgirl model.  Love. Love. Love!!!!! 

Here are some of my favorite shots from our father's day session.

Bugay Family | Milwaukee Photographer

On one of the hottest days while I was in PA, I met up with the cutest family of four at Grings Mill Park near Shillington, PA.  The park was lovely and the family was beautiful! Check out these awesome photos from our time together. 

3 times the beauty | Milwaukee Photographer

Another great shoot in Pennsylvania!  A child-hood friend (and second cousin to my best friend) booked me to photograph her three daughters.  While all three girls are sweet, fun and did I mention beautiful, I got a kick out of how different their personalities are.  Their differences shined through in the photos.  The oldest is a bit shy and couldn't stand to be wearing a dress!  The middle daughter was able to bring on the attitude when I asked her to demonstrating her more theatrical side.  The youngest -- only 2 -- is a dainty little thing, but that compact frame barely contains her dynamic personality.  What a crew!  Here are some shots from our morning together.

Sisters | Milwaukee Photographer

I recently visited friends and family in the Philadelphia area.  Much to my delight people wanted to book me for photo shoots while I was in town.  My cousins, Kirsten and Dana decided they wanted to do a sister shoot.  I was very excited because: 1. they are GORGEOUS and who doesn't love to take pictures of pretty; 2. I would get to hang out with these awesome girls for a little.

They are amazing!  I am blown away by how old they are already...I should explain that I used to be a mommy's helper to my aunt and would entertain and care for them when they were babies -- yes babies!?!?!  They have blossomed into stylish, smart, fun, ambitious and absolutely beautiful college students. I only wish we lived closer so we could see each other more regularly (thank goodness for Facebook - ha!).

As sisters go, they seem very close and also very different from each other. Much like my sister and I are. Kirsten favors her dad's side of the family (my dad's brother), while Dana is almost a mirror image of her mom.  They both got the best of both sides of the family.  AND they turned on their model mode for me so I was able to get awesome pictures. 

By the way, They actually hiked around this wooded nature trail in those shoes!  They are true 20-somethings (it is at around 30 that the heels start to make your body sore for a week after wearing them...I should know).  It all made a for a really fun and fierce shoot.  Here are some of my favorite photos.

 

18-months and on the move | Milwaukee Children Photographer

This little guy is getting harder to keep up with these days.  I have taken his photo since he was just a few months old.  It all changes once their little legs are walking and then running :)  But we had a great time snapping these photos.  Enjoy the few favorites I included below.
