Here are a few engagement photos from last weekend. They loved the outdoors and wanted to do a little something with the colors. We were at a few places but ended up at Peabody park in Appleton. I love going to this park for it’s many areas to shoot. Many years ago with the help of my mentor this is where I learned to “see” light. It has been a while since I have been here and it needs to get back on my radar.

Had a great wedding last weekend at the Medina Wedding Chapel. Weather was perfect and I had a fun couple to work with, what I would call a win-win situation. We stopped for photos down in the flats before going to the Grand Meridian for dinner.

Here are some photos from the day

Spending the evening with my daughter watching the T-Rats play ball. A beautiful evening perfect for a ball game and SCORE!!!! BOBBLEHEADS!!!!!!!

This weekend I had the pleasure to photograph the fabulous Julia and Nate. We did a tour of downtown Appleton including a ride on the trolly. We had a blast and I can’t wait for the wedding. Here are a few photos from our field trip.

I had a great wedding this past weekend in Suamico. We had a blast the entire day. We made a couple of stops along the way and ended up at Black Forest Dining & Spirits in Green Bay. Music was by Scott from Elite Music Service who did an outstanding job, as usual, for making everyone have a great time. Here a few shot from the day

The other day I went with my daughter for a walk in downtown Appleton. We went just to take pictures and to see what we could see. No real plans, no real purpose, just fun taking photos. If it was anything it was an exercise in creativity. I decided to bring just 1 lens. Not just any lens, a lensbaby. It is hard to describe a lensbaby to non photo people. It was made to do a style of photography. In a nutshell it is photography with cameras that have really bad lenses or toy cameras with really bad lenses. With digital photography this is hard to do. Nobody makes really bad lenses for slr cameras. So what is a digital photographer to do?? Lensbaby. It has been slowly refined over the years but I have an earlier model. Focus is adjusted by pushing in or pulling out the lens, and you can bend it as well. It is just a fun lens to play with.

It is that time of year again. The summer before Senior year of High School. Hannah goes to Little Chute High School and is the last child and 3rd daughter of my best friend from High School. I photographed his other 2 daughters and if you search my blog you will find them here. Just like her 2 sisters we had a great time, also like her sisters it was extremely hot outside. It must be a family thing. Hannah held up great, I on the other hand, lets just say needed a shower when I was done.

Leela turns 90

Today also happens to my anniversary. Happy Anniversary Lisa Love You!

Let the celebrations begin

I know it has been awhile since I have made a post. Well I have been busy and it is easy to get out of the habit of doing this. I have been traveling a lot lately for a project with Image Studios and there will be a lot more coming. For those of you who do not know, I am the studio manager and photographer for Image as well as this amazing wedding photographer. We leave around 6:30am and get back around 6:30pm. In the winter that means dark to dark travel, but now it is getting later in the season and we are starting to get some light. Yeah!!! We were coming home on Friday and there was this amazing sunset that I have to share with you.

Another Senior photo session from last week.  We were at Lawrence and downtown Appleton.  It was a green wardrobe, which I like just look at my truck.  She also brought her prom dress which was great.
