Holden | Neenah Baby Photographer

I've mentioned in the past that I don't really do infant or children's photography. But this little cutie and his mamma are too cute to pass up... Little Holden was sooo cute and sooo good I could photograph him all day every day.

You might remember his mamma's maternity session last summer. I hope these two have even more kiddos to brighten the world like this little guy brightened mine that day!








Can't wait to photograph Holden's 9 month photos this summer... stay posted for more blue-eyed, chubby cheeked cuteness.

Sweet as Pie | Baby's First Birthday

Yesterday was my darling baby girl's very first birthday. We had a fabulous "Sweet as Pie" themed party for her. Here is a sneak peak of Emerie and her beautiful birthday party spread...

Georgia | Neenah Children's Photographer

My favorites from my session with Georgia...





I photographed Georgia several times in the last 3 years. She just turned three years old in January and is in love with all things pretty. It was a blast to photograph her again!

Action!

Drew was such a good boy while I was testing my lighting setup in my studio last weekend.



I have some cute shots in the processing cue of a wonderful little fairy from Mequon.

Mr. February

This year I did personalized gifts for all my family members - what a hit! These cute 4x6 custom designed calendars are now available and great gift ideas. You can have them designed with your engagement photos, wedding photos, high school senior photos... the ideas are endless.

Each month is printed as a 4x6 and can be displayed in a traditional frame, an acryllic frame. We have ours in a magnetic frame on our fridge!

Family Fun! | Neenah Lifestyle Photography

This is my third time photographing this lovely family! I cannot believe how much the boys have grown over the years. We lucked out with beautiful weather and gorgeous light for their fall family session.

Happy Fall! | Neenah Lifestyle Photography

Last week I had the chance to photograph my kiddos. Emerie turned 6 months and Drew turned 4 years in September. They did surprisingly well - Drew wore what I set out for him and Emerson didn't cry too much. It is so hard to photograph your own kids. First off, you have to hide your face behind the camera... babies and kids like to see their mommy - so I play a lot of Peek-a-Boo. Secondly, there is a huge standard that you need to live up to... I'm pretty hard on myself to get things to be perfect.

I'm so happy with the images. Here are a few that I thought would brighten your day.

Maternity - Ardent style

It's been crazy here at Ardent Photography! Since I last blogged I've moved into my Milwaukee Boudoir studio, hired a part-time employee, got Emerson baptized and even found time for a short vacay with the family.

I don't usually do maternity portraits... but if a past client calls with news that they are expecting I cannot turn them away! Katie was one of my first sessions that I shot in my studio in Milwaukee. We shot part of the session in the studio and the second half on the streets and in a baby boutique in the Third Ward.

Their little guy is due any day now. I wish for them a quick and complication-free delivery!
