The McDole Family

One January morning I went to Stoughton to photograph this lovely family in their beautiful home. There is something about photographing a family in their home that just hits different than when I meet them in a park. I get to capture them in their space, the space they live their daily lives in. Mabel will look back on these images when she grows up and see the art hanging on the walls, the quilts her Mom made draped on the furniture, the sourdough bread her Dad made sitting on the kitchen counter and it all tells a story for her - she will get that warm “feels like home” feeling.

Grey Gardens

I enjoy photographing weddings, I enjoy working in fashion but if I am being honest, children are my favorite subject. Children have a way of forgetting about the camera- what I try to get everyone I work with to do, comes so natural to them. So yesterday I took the afternoon off to have lunch over at the Gagnon's - where we picked out lunch from their garden, drank tea and talk about life, Africa and how August in Wisconsin is perfect. After lunch, Nora picked me some flowers and some food to take home -- images below will show you the process of our afternoon together.  

Cait and Paul

Before today I only had a few conversations with these two and I managed to cry about 5 times throughout their wedding day. I can't describe to you how beautiful this day was and in so many ways- to start, everyone looked so beautiful, these two are ridiculously cute and they manage to have really attractive family and friends. The community that these two have is so genuine, their love for each other is so evident, their friendship is so true. Every bit of this day was perfect, to the cute little chapel they got married in, to the song Cait recorded for their first dance. These two are new owners of a coffee shop and music venue on Monroe St. called Crescendo, and you should all check it out.
