Albums | Sheboygan County Wedding & Portrait Photographer

Happy Halloween! :) and Happy Sunday!

Last week I ordered and received 2 sample albums. To say I was happy...was an understatement :) I was ecstatic! I was just about jumping up and down when I saw the box waiting for me when I got home :D:D

On a side note...its just like Christmas when a WHCC box is waiting at the door :D:D

So, after posting on twitter that I had received these albums I got a few requests to see them....

well...here they are! :D:D Enjoy!

of course Tucker had to help :)

 right - wedding album; left - guest book

  The wedding album is called a flushmount album - meaning thicker and sturdier pages. The guest book is a press printed, hinged album.

 Top view...

 Flushmount -- open ....here you can see the thicker pages and laying flat

 and closed....

 Here is the press printed, hinged guest book....this book also lays flat!

 and closed.

I just love the look of both of these albums! I will post the layouts of each book soon! :D:D Can't wait to show them off!

Hutchison Family Photos | Sheboygan Family Photographer

Last weekend was pretty yucky around here. Rainy. Cold. And grey. BUT...the Hutchison's still had a fun Saturday afternoon with me! We were able to get some adorable family portraits...right in their back yard! I love it when clients have a woods in their backyards :) I also love it when clients kids are not camera shy! It makes my job muuuuuuch easier! I'm pretty sure the word of the afternoon was 'cheeseburger!' because...let's face it...cheese...yea that's so like 1990. just sayin' hehehe :) 

Anyway, meet the Hutchison's:

I work with Lisa at my other job. So when she told me that it had been a while since they had family photos I told her that I would LOVE to be the photographer for them :) Lucky for me she said yes :D

Lisa's parents also joined us for the photo shoot:

Lisa's two little girls are adorable and they LOVE getting their picture taken...

Yes, they even had to show me their Halloween costumes :) toooo cute :D

There is one thing that Lisa and her dad have in common....their love for VW buses. I absolutely LOVE that they wanted both buses in some of the family photos!

The girls decorated the bus before we took some photos with it...

Even the family dog got in on the fun photos!

And last, but certainly not least....my favorite photo of the day....

That grin is soooooo cute!

Thank you Hutchison's for sticking out the cold and rainy weather! To view more photos from their shoot, click here!

Getting to Know Me | Sheboygan County Wedding Photographer

Happy Tuesday! I can't believe that it is the MIDDLE OF OCTOBER!!! Wow...fall is well on its way and winter is not far behind. PLUS only 7 months until our wedding!! :D:D And man do I have A TON of planning to do. Not that I am complaing....but I'm just sayin' :) 

So anyway, I thought it was time for another installment of "Getting to Know Me"

Question #2 on the list is: What is your favorite movie?

What instantly comes to my mind??

Sleeping Beauty

Oh yes...I went there :D

This has been my FAVORITE since I was...umm...3? 5? Ok, and I was totally going to say it was my favorite since it came out...buuuttttt I was totally NOT around in January of 1959. Needless to say I have watched this movie like 3543513287385138 times. Give or take one or two ;) When I was little I would watch it OVER and OVER and OVER. I'm pretty sure between Sleeping Beauty, the Little Mermaid and Cinderella I can recite just about all the lines!

Now don't get me wrong...I like plenty of other movies as well....here are some from the list:

The Nigthmare Before Christmas

Public Enemies

Sleepy Hollow

Blow

Chocolate

The Little Mermaid

The Holiday

Made of Honor

Cinderella

Marry Poppins

Jurassic Park (s)

Juno

Harry Potter (s)

The Sword and the Stone

Idiocracy 

and like 367 other movies :D

ok...maybe 367 is an exaggeration. but I think you get the picture ;)

yea...I like movies. Or, rather, we (Mike and I), like love movies. Action, drama, suspense, comedy. You name it we will watch it. At least once. twice if we like it :)

Ashley & Tim | Engaged | Hartford, WI Photographer

Fall in Wisconsin is one of the most beautiful times in the year.

I LOVE fall...the colors and weather are amazing (well, ok the weather is not always so amazing...). 

I have been SO excited for this engagement session, not only because I got to hang out with Ashley and Tim for a couple hours but also because they chose to have their photos taken at Pike Lake State Park near Hartford. 

If you ever have the chance to go...do it! Especially in the fall

....ohmygoodness....

the colors are AMAZING. And we weren't there at the peak of fall! I bet the colors are even more vibrant now :D 

I got there before Ashley & Tim so that I could look around and find some neat spots along a few of the trails that are in the park. There are a number of different trails that go along the lake and into the woods. There is even a tower...but we didn't make it that far...it was like a 4 mile hike. Here are a few photos I took while I was waiting:

trails galore!

and preeeeettyyyy flowers :)

and water

Ok, now that we all know I <3 fall....on to Ashely & Tim :)

These two were fabulous to work with...I love it when clients are willing to climb on things, sit on other things and be goofy with eachother. It makes my job sooooo easy :D

seeeeeee what I mean :D:D love the little hop Tim ;) 

cuteness....annnnddd pretty colors

adorable.

Ashley & Tim, thank you so much for the fun afternoon!!! I am so excited for your wedding next spring!!

Getting to Know Me | Sheboygan County Wedding & Portrait Photographer

So, last week Tuesday I posted this post. All about getting to know me! Now...I am going to start conquering this list. And...I'm gonna be all cool and start with #1...What is your favorite song? 

And really...really??? How am I supposed to choose my FAVORITE. Because honestly I love music. Like love it so much that I basically have some kind of music playing. At. All. Times. But as of lately Paramore has definitely graced the top of my list of fav's. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that my sister, Kelly, and I went to see them in August. 

I'm just sayin'.

So, I suppose this is more like favorite music artist....but then again lately on my ipod you can find these artists:

Paramore (obviously)

Tegan and Sara

Enrique

Miley Cyrus

Usher

HelloGoodbye

Katy Perry

Bruno Mars

Hey Monday

AC/DC

Keith Urban

Billy Currington

David Guetta

Lady Gaga 

Kesha

The White Stripes

Led Zepplin

Taylor Swift

and...well...a whole bunch more lol

because, let's face it, who doesn't like to have a little dance party in their head while sitting at work jamming to tunes?!?!?! :D:D I know I do!

Happy Weekend!!
