"Great Expectation"

Kristina and Jared are expecting their first child next week- and she looks absolutely beautiful! Thanks, Guys, for such a great shoot!

KidsFest/ Baby Expo 2009

Today and tomorrow I have an exhibit up at State Fair Park showing my photography.
The special offer for guests at Baby Expo is a FREE 8 x 12 canvas print with ANY photo session.
Maternity or Baby photo session starts at $120 ($175 if family/dad are included), and multiple children/family photos is $175.
I do primarily on-location photography, which means that I will meet you at your house or a park, or anywhere you would like to have your pictures taken at. I get to haul my photo stuff all over SE Wisconsin in my Jeep- it's awesome ;)
A photo session generally lasts about an hour- so it is not rushed, we have time to play around a little to get everyone more relaxed, and kids more comfortable in front of the camera- that way everyone looks more natural, and I can take great candid, artistic photographs.
Guests will also receive a copyright waiver, and a CD of images- that way they can print wherever is most convenient for them.


Thanks to Everyone who gave such positive comments today at the Expo- it's a great confidence booster!

New Baby, New Work!

It has been such a long time since I've posted! Well, a lot has happened:
Josiah, my son, was born on December 19th. He is a beautiful little boy, and I have really enjoyed motherhood so far!
I have recently been commissioned by WLC to do a large painting as an altarpiece for a new church service they are adding. I will be displaying 6 photographs at Caribou Coffee on Hwy 100 and Bluemound Rd (an example is shown above)
I have also been teaching art 2 days a week at St. John's in Wauwatosa for grades 1-8, which has been a blast!

I am now booking for the 2009 photography season- weddings, High School Senior Portraits, family photos, and more!

Organ Photo Shoot

CD Project

I had the opportunity to help out my good friend, Mike Westendorf, with his new CD project. We had a great photo shoot, and had fun putting together the CD cover. He will have the official release party at Cup O' Joy in Green Bay on June 27th. I will be singing backup for that concert- and I am also on the CD!! You can see more about the CD and purchasing information at www.mikewestendorf.com

Long time!!

Wow, so it has been 2 months since my last post, so I truly apologize for not keeping up on it!
So, Big things have happened since the last post.
I had my art show opening on April 18th, and had over 100 people attend to enjoy the artwork and the great music provided by Mike Westendorf and Distinctively Different (and I even sang a number or two!)
I really had a blast, but couldn't get over how tired I was. Well, turns out I had a little person starting to grow! I was pregnant, and just thought I was stressed. So, I had to re-think what my priorities art-wise are. No more stained glass for the next year (the chemicals are dangerous for me- but Jonathan can still do it!) So I am focusing more on my photography skills. I have had a couple of weddings already this year, and have several more to go, plus a couple in the works. I will post my favorites soon!
Thanks to Everyone who attended my show- I really appreciated all the wonderful compliments and the great questions everyone had!

ART SHOW

So, My art show opening is in a week and a half- opens on Friday, April 18th from 7 until 10:30 pm.
It is located at Point of Grace at 2223 E. Kenwood Blvd. Milwaukee, WI
It is right across the street from the UWM student union. There is street parking available, and a parking structure across the street on the East side of the Student Union for $1/hour.
Mike Westendorf will be performing, as well as Distinctively Different, and maybe might hear a little from me, too :)
I will be posting pictures of the artwork on the website after the show opens~ I hope to see you there!!

Portraiture

Every Year I like to do a new self portrait to give to my hubby, Jonathan. I played around with it a little more this year, more effects that I have been experimenting with in Photoshop.
I also do this so that I have no pressure to get the photos edited and completed by a certain time- I like to experiment without having to worry about what others will think of it, but that when they do see the end result, it is something that they would love to have in their own photos. I also entered this into an online photo contest, and am currently in the top 10 people photos out of thousands of entries- VERY exciting!

Katie's Maternity Photos

So, A good friend of mine, Katie, asked me to do maternity photos- but this is no ordinary photo project!
We will be taking progressive photos once a month (approximately) in the same poses to see how her body is changing. I am SO excited- this is really a beautiful thing to experience, and I'm glad that she's asked me to do it!

Busy as a Bee

Hello, Hello again!
So, after a week and a half of being sick, and then trying to finish up the paintings for the show, I am FINALLY able to post again.
There are 3 new paintings for "He is Worthy" that I will have prints available to purchase after each concert- "The Lamb of God", "The Humiliation", and "The Crucifixion". The only one that is the same for this concert is "I know that My Redeemer Liveth"
I am very excited to hear people's reactions to these new paintings!
I am also going to have work up for sale at two different locations around Milwaukee: at Muscari Flower shop on the East Side, and at the Corner Bazaar in West Allis. Pray that these endeavors are blessed!!!
Gotta go!
