the boys club

A few years ago, three couples we knew each had a baby boy. Those boys are turning three this year and I was able to spend some time capturing two of them recently. These little guys sure have a special place in my heart. They all have really adorable younger sisters also, but this one’s for the boys.

I probably got him in trouble on this one. His mom said to stop but when she left I told him to do it again (because I wanted to capture it!) Sorry Kate! ;-)

I had the pleasure to do another family session with this family for a second year in a row. A few shots from last year’s session can be seen here. I love the cute sweaters they have on the little tyke!

Thanks again Kelly and Brent. We had a great time down on the beach again with you guys!

jessica’s 30th

We celebrated my wife’s 30th birthday last weekend with a wine and cake reception. Jess wanted a fancy, black tie optional event. So I broke out my tux (as did a variety of other good looking chaps) and the ladies had an opportunity to dig into their closest for the dresses that only get worn every so often. Jess and I even had a chance to put our dance lessons to the test in front of everyone!

Happy Birthday my beautiful wife. I look forward to celebrating many more birthdays with you!

The cakes came from Le Cakery in Elm Grove (website). Hakan, the owner, delivered them and help set them up nicely. If you need a cake for a special occasion, I would recommend you check out Le Cakery!

Our friends here are looking at a guest book I designed, which has pictures of Jess since birth. These guest books are a wonderful idea for any party, reception, or wedding. Feel free to contact me for more details.

It was great to get family together again that haven’t seen each other since our wedding (six years ago next month!).

christmas eve

We spent Christmas Eve this year with my step-dad’s family in Oshkosh. An Italian family where the food and laughs never run out. It was cold and snowy outside but inside we had a great time. We finished the night playing the annual game of Tombola (Italian Bingo). This Tombola set has been used every year for eighty some years or so.

These two shots were from a photo session last week. It was a windy day, yet we were able to get out to the beach for a bit. I loved the blues throughout the day.

who’s taking the pictures here?

This little guy was a blast during his photo session. I gave him this point and shoot to play with so he felt comfortable with me taking his picture (since he was taking mine). It worked well and I got this shot out of it to boot.
