Milwaukee Wisconsin Wedding & Family Photographer

Newborn Andrew Evan has joined a girl gang that is to be envied. Eloise, Clementine & Isla are the most adored little girls in an adorable family, rich with love, tradition, faith and joy. I’ve photographed this family for at least a decade now, starting with mom & dad’s wedding through to the (re)construction of their forever home and the birth of their 3 girls, and now their baby boy. A newborn session is usually filled with lots of mom & dad snuggling baby and baby all swaddled alone and cozy, and we did all of that at Andrew’s session. But the real fun, the real memories, the real point of the session, I think, came when we gathered sister and brother. All the little feet in different directions, little hands offering gentle touches and little faces with curious stares made my heart near explode with joy for this now family of 6. And in this season of Advent I can think of no better post to offer up today than this one. Welcome little one, we are so glad you are here.

I met Kate when she was new to Milwaukee, a college student finding her way in the world and willing to nanny my (numerous) children on weekly date nights. She was bold and kind, inquisitive and fun, a young woman open to life and love. My acquaintance with Andrew is much newer in the timeline. He met Kate online and they found they matched heart soul fairly quickly, but the process of introducing the love of one’s life to all your people takes time. Over facetime chats during the pandemic and through their engagement session I found Andrew to be sincere and caring, the kind of beau who is always up for a game of cribbage at Vendetta or a cozy night in with their cat Freddie. He offers his hand to Kate at every turn and teared up when he first saw her on their wedding day. They are one another’s North Star, the brightest points in each other’s life, the planet they will both gladly orbit for all eternity. Their wedding was intimate and lovingly curated to include their favorite people, music, desserts, and saying: Love You To The Moon & Back. They had conversations with guests and fed each other macaroons. They played in the wind and showed off their admirable style. They were married and it was perfect.
