Landon Paul Skoog

I absolutely love shooting weddings. I thought it was my favorite thing to photograph. But I was wrong. Births are by far my favorite thing. There is something so spectacular and so magical about a birth - from seeing the mother's pain change to sheer joy in seconds, when she holds her newborn baby. It's so wonderful!! And I love being able to capture that for people as well. I know, personally, I LOVED having the birth of Seth photographed and will continue to do that for all my children. I will absolutely cherish those pictures forever.

I have so far only done the births of family members (my sister and sister-in-law to be exact). I'm still trying to convince others it's the way to go, but I understand how modesty can take over your desire to want those pictures. To fight the myths of birth pictures, I do not, I repeat, DO NOT photograph anything that would expose you or would embarrass you in any sort of way. It's a completely clean and beautiful display of pictures. I don't do anything x-rated here! :) Really, the birth pictures mainly consist of things that happen post birth - the mother's reaction, weighing the baby, those first few moments with your child, etc....

Anyways, all that to say I got to witness another nephew being born! Landon Paul arrived on Oct. 21 - a whole 9 days early! Jen and Bryan did not know what they were having, so to be in the room and hear "It's a boy!" was very exciting.
























Here is the whole birth slideshow in case you are interested....

Rachel's Senior Pictures

I first met Rachel 2 years ago when I photographed her sister's senior portraits, and now here we are again doing HER senior portraits! Rachel recently got her braces taken off, so her smile was nice and perfect for the shoot. What a feeling of relief that must be for her! She is also a dancer, which explains why she carried herself with such grace and elegance. We did her senior portraits at Ault Park and could not have asked for a more beautiful day. Here are a few to prove it....

Jonas and Erin's Wedding!!

Finally, I have time to post this beautiful wedding! I'm really slacking on hitting my 2 week time limit. Guess I can't be perfect now that Seth is mobile and takes a lot of my attention!

Anyways, 2 weeks ago, I photographed a GORGEOUS wedding at Laurel Court. This was my second time photographing at this location, and let me tell you, I could photograph there every weekend!! The place is just magnificent! I was overwhelmed by the amount of places I could photograph! Unfortunately we couldn't get to all of them, but that's ok, because Jonas and Erin already have way too many pictures to go through. The wedding had a very vintage feel - from the dress, to the flowers, to the location, everything fit beautifully! Erin was STUNNING, as to be expected :) And Jonas was one of the best grooms I've ever worked with - he even gave the best groom speech at the reception. I was almost in tears myself! And another great thing about this wedding - I get to photograph her sister's wedding next year! I love working with the same families over and over again.

Anyways, as you can tell, I loved this wedding. Yes, I love all my weddings (I am so blessed to work with the couples that I do!), but this had an extra flair that I just loved. I don't know, maybe it's my pregnancy hormones making me all mushy....I just love weddings :) Here are some of my favorites (notice I didn't say "few"? I couldn't narrow them down)....























I'm a sucker for cool doors....

Thank you, Jonas and Erin, for letting me be a part of your day! And thanks, Emily, for assisting me!

The Zurcher Family

After trying to coordinate a family session for a long time, I was finally able to photograph the Zurcher family! They are an absolutely gorgeous family, with Lainey (age 4) and Cale (age 5 months). Lainey just happens to be one my niece's best friends, and I see a lot of Hailey in her! Here are a few favorites....

























Little attitude....


That's better...

Jaime & Robbie's Wedding

A few weeks ago, I met Jaime and Robbie on their wedding day. They live out of town, so we were never able to do engagement pictures or even meet before the day of the wedding. It didn't matter - they made me feel as though I'd known them all along! Their wedding was all in one location, and a very elegant affair. I had my friend, Emily, along with me to help out for the day. Here are a few of my favorites from the day...

Penny is a year old!

When I get really busy, one of the first things that gets put off is the blog....So my apologies to those who diligently read my blog and are bored with no new stuff! Trust me, there is plenty to come in the next month or so....

Waiting ever so patiently to be added was a portrait session of my good friends' (Ryan & Alli) daughter, Penny, who recently turned one. We've been trying to get this photo session in for so long, and it finally worked out! We met up at Snider Park in Mason and battled a nice fall chill to get some great shots. Penny was such a sport, but also difficult to keep up with! It's amazing how fast those short little legs can move when a camera is pointed in her direction! Here are a few of my favorites...
