Lifestyle Session | Lake Geneva Photographer

I love capturing a family over and over, and getting to see every stage of their kiddos.

I love lifestyle sessions and capturing their REAL life.

AND I love supporting other women in their small businesses.

This lifestyle session was all of the things that I love and more!

During each of our yearly lifestyle sessions, I make sure that we always include the family’s favorite parts of their day-to-day. This session included their favorite family activities like playtime, tickles, books, and dancing. This year we also included the “helping hands” involved in Bex’s new business Happy Little Flame. As all entrepreneurs know, a small business involves every member of the family, from the biggest to the littlest. We were able to capture all of the ‘coworkers’ helping mommy out.

Whether it’s a big event, or the everyday in and out of life, I love to capture them all! And I love that these are the things that are important to my clients too! Bex says, “Lately, my brain is just so full… with raising a family, running a business, and chasing my passions, it’s bursting at the seams! There are memories and special moments that get buried, and I LOVE having beautiful pictures that can transport me back to a specific time. The best part about doing a lifestyle shoot is that it shows what our lives are like at that moment in time.”

Lake Geneva Photographer

And Bex’s mom-tip for your lifestyle shoot: “Make sure you carve out enough time to get yourself ready. With little kids it’s hard to take time to do your make-up and hair, and also get them ready. This last session was the first time I made sure I had enough time to make myself look the way I wanted, and it felt so good!”

 

So, add to your to do list: schedule a lifestyle session with Jess, and treat yourself to an additive, dye, and phthalate free candle from Happy Little Flame. You will be glad you did, for so many reasons!!

Beach Session | Lake Geneva Photographer

Ladies and Gents, this is the moment I’VE been waiting for…. to photograph one of my favorite families in my very favorite location. Clouds or sunshine… the Riviera Beach in Lake Geneva, WI is magical.

Lake Geneva Photographer

From boardwalks to boat docks, to sand between our toes and a spontaneous dip in the waves (who can resist?!?) we captured fun and laughter our entire shoot!

The very best part of our shoot was watching this family play together… just how a day at the beach should be!

Lake Geneva PhotographerPhoto shoots can be to commemorate new beginnings,

to capture a special age or stage,

or just to remember the idyllic freedom and joy of childhood.

Lake Geneva Photographer

More than anything, I just want you to remember your family’s deep love for each other.

What a gift…

Lake Geneva Photographer

Thank you for letting me capture your memories!!!

When All Your Dreams Come True

 

“Imagine a future moment in your life where all your dreams come true, you know? It’s the greatest moment of your life and you get to experience it with one person.”

Lake Geneva Photographer

When you fall asleep
What will you dream
Castles and Kings

The story’s been read
And you rest your head
Warm in your bed

My love may dream
Of beautiful things
Till the dawn of the day
Bright and new

Wherever you go
I want you to know
When I dream
I dream of you

Lake Geneva Photographer

Fly over the sea
Float on the breeze
Careless and free

When your journey ends
Wake up and then
Dream it again

My love may dream
Of beautiful things
Till the dawn of the day
Bright and new

Lake Geneva Photographer

Wherever you go
I want you to know
When I dream
I dream of gentle wind
Blowing in

Time seems to slow
The way we go
Moonlight fills
Up your room
Darling you are
My dream come true

Lake Geneva Photographer

My love may dream
Of beautiful things
Till the dawn of the day
Bright and new

Wherever you go
I want you to know
When I dream
I dream of you…

Sweet Sitter Session | Lake Geneva Photographer

When the Ranz family asked me to capture this new milestone, I customized a special session to focus on Lydia’s new skills. Her mom said, “We wanted to capture Lydia’s sitting up milestone. The baby years go by so quickly and they truly change each and every day. We like to represent these fleeting phases in the best way possible, with professional photography! For our first born we did a newborn, sitting up, and 1 year/standing photo shoot and intend to do the exact same for our second!”

Lake Geneva Photographer

“We were extremely lucky with our first born daughter. She was what is considered a “good” baby and she has always been such a joy. We were told over and over again that she had a “second child” type personality and that we probably wouldn’t get so lucky again with our second! If possible, our second is even “easier”! Lydia is such a delight! She is always laughing and smiling! She has such a spunky personality and we love it!! She is talkative and adventurous!”

All of it! This was our favorite session by far! From start to finish it was fun and we loved watching Lydia just be herself!

Sunset on the Chain Session | Spring Grove Photographer

Sunset on the Chain Session | Spring Grove Photographer

I love it when a family embraces photography as a way to capture what is important to them. When photography represents family, traditions, and even sacrifice.

Lake Geneva Photographer

What better way to capture a family’s memories than at a place where so many of their favorite memories are made?!

Lake Geneva Photographer

It makes my photographer heart even happier when a family doesn’t want the traditional sit and smile photo, but wants to capture their happiest place in the world… like on their boat at sunset. With the wind in our faces and the water as smooth as glass, we saw the sun sizzle into the horizon as the sky turned a brilliant orange.

Lake Geneva PhotographerWhen this family sees these photos on their lake house walls, I hope they remember the laughter and fun we had on this gorgeous night. Who else wants to take me on a boat ride?!?!
