Milwaukee Wisconsin Wedding & Family Photographer

Baby Samson joins a family very much in progress. Lucy, James and Ambrose are a vivacious trio genuinely thrilled to add Samson to their number. On this gorgeous spring day they showed me all his soft skin and were excited to alternate between holding baby, playing with each other and cuddling mom. I’ve photographed each of the children at the newborn stage and I am always excited to see what literary inspiration their parents have chosen for their names and to work with the incredible hand crocheted blankets dad and family have made each time around. In this 4th and perhaps final baby session for the family there were fewer “things” to photograph but there was even more love than I could have imagined. So wrap yourself up in something cozy like these children have throughout this session and take a gander at all of the sibling joy in this post welcoming Samson.

You got lucky beloved little man; your family is wonderful and even better now that you are here.

The not so secret story behind our studio is that we legitimately love being at all of the weddings we photograph. We love details and ceremonies, magic moments between dads and daughters, best friends and brides, the big family reunion feels, the intimate wedding at home tent celebrations. We seriously love them all. Every once in awhile though, a wedding sort of rises to the top of the list of favorite days for us and you guessed it: Caitlyn & Derek’s November wedding lives rent free in the part of my brain dedicated to an appreciation of beauty. It was a sparkling day for a sparkling couple made all the better by a roof top first look & sharing of private vows and an outdoor ceremony (in November!) Their crazy cute pug made an appearance and their live band brought the house down. The toasts were heartfelt and the reception design was pure eye candy. So, yes, this was a favorite of 2024 and we can’t wait for you start your scroll. Go slowly; this is one to savor.
