> Vegas Area Family Photographer

Last weekend I met the Bice family at a Park near their Summerlin home for some family photos.  It was a perfect Fall day in Las Vegas where the sun was shining, the temperature was cool and comfortable, the leaves had changed on the trees and were starting to fall, and I was able to meet a seriously great family.  Days with weather like this are numbered in Vegas and I'm so happy when I can take advantage of them for some family photos! After a few family portraits in the park, we decided to have a silly string fight; Parents vs. Kids.  I'm not totally sure who "won" the fight, but I think everyone had fun!  Here are some of my favorites from the Bice Family session:

> Las Vegas Area Family Photography

The Wynia Family has become so near and dear to my heart.  I've photographed Jenny & Nick's wedding, their son Parker throughout his first year, and now their beautiful daughter Riley throughout her first 6 months.  I think this was my 7th or 8th session with them!  It's been so fun to get to know them and watch their family grow throughout the last 2 and a half years.  I honestly can't say enough about this family.  They are just so loving, respectful, and genuine good people.

When I started my business almost 4 years ago, I did it because I love love love photography, I love creating art, I wanted to work for my self, I wanted to make my own schedule, etc... all pretty selfish reasons!  I had no idea that it would turn into such a rewarding job making my clients happy and taking joy in doing whatever I can to give them memories that they'll never forget.  I also had no idea that I would create relationships with my clients, and the Wynia family is no exception.  I love the fact that when Jenny was having a bad day, she was able to text me for a sneak peek of this session because she remembered how fun it was and she wanted to be brought back to that day with her family!  Nothing makes me more happy than to make my clients happy.

Ok ok, enough with the sappy stuff!  This session was at Discovery Park in Henderson, NV.  I made the little teepee out of a vintage sheet and blanket.  Here are some of my favorites from our family session!

> Beaver Dam, Wisconsin Family Photography

Bridget and Eric Spielman are my sisters two best friends from High School and they just so happen to have married each other.  They are both teachers in Sheboygan, WI, just a hop, skip, and a jump away from our hometown of Beaver Dam.  My sister was being inducted into our High School Sports Hall of Fame and Bridget and Eric brought their family to town to visit with Marie and to help celebrate at a cookout at my Mom's house.  We decided to take some family photos during the cookout and my Mom's backyard was the perfect place to capture Ella and Cole running around the massive and impeccably landscaped area. Ella and Cole are the cutest, blondest, most well mannered children!  They are so cute together and Ella is always there to help Cole with something and to give him kisses.  Ella loves to dance, do cartwheels, run around, and was always ready to smile for my camera.  I think I had at least 300 photos alone of her dancing!  Here are some of my favorites from the Spielman's laid back backyard session!
