Nolan + Drew + Aiden

2008-07-22T19:18:00.009-05:00

Meet Samantha! Her senior session was great! Shawn tried out some new locations...and they are so cool! It was such a beautiful evening, and a great breeze - which makes hair look great in portraits! Samantha is so natural in front of the camera! We're both blown away! There are tons of great images, but these are a few that jumped out at us.

Craig + Kristyn

2008-07-15T19:40:00.010-05:00

Craig and Kristyn were married on Saturday, July 12th in Chippewa Falls! They had such a neat wedding! The ceremony was at Irvine Park and the reception was at the Heyde Center for Arts. What was most impressive was the wedding cake (or lack thereof!)....they had wedding PIE! Shawn was obsessed with it! He said he doesn't know where it came from or who made it but it was the best pie he'd ever eaten! And he's picky!!! Lol...

Rhea + Olivia

Candice + Kevin

2008-06-17T00:10:00.004-05:00

Candice and Kevin are getting married on June 27th of next year! They were hoping for some vintage springtime pics with apple blossoms or a winery feel...but we didn't make it in time! It is hard to get a hold of an apple orchard in the spring! Lol...

Their pics turned out great though! Here are some of our favorites! Ironically enough, Candice wanted some umbrella pics...and I think this was the only day last week that didn't rain! Go figure!

Tara

2008-06-17T00:07:00.004-05:00

Shawn took Tara's Senior Portraits earlier this year...they wanted to get some at the junkyard, however...it was really sloppy and wet that day! They did another shoot recently and the shots turned out great! We'll be able to add this location to our list! Hooray!

2008-06-16T23:57:00.004-05:00

Shawn's baby sister is getting married this fall! Wow! We feel sooo old!!! She was 7 when we started dating! That is c-r-a-z-y considering the fact that our oldest is 10! I feels like just yesterday we were babysitting her and trying in vain to ignore her desperate pleads for trips to Dairy Queen! Lol...

Here are the shots that Shawn got! Love you guys!

The good news...it was windy and stormy...which believe it or not...made for some awesome shots!
