The Art of Life

Just wanted to post quickly that the family and I are headed out of town for a wedding & I will not be able to respond to any emails or return any phone calls until Monday.  If you have tried to reach me yesterday or today and I have not gotten back to you, you will hear from me on Monday.  Have a great weekend!

Sorry to be such a blog slacker…this past month has been very busy for my personal life (and administrative-end business stuff!) so I just haven’t gotten around to blogging.  But the Delafield Art Walk was a success!  The Fischer family won a complimentary session and we have gotten so much great feedback from the many people that stopped by to see us there.  We are looking forward to the next event! 

I have been working on quite a few projects, and I had the great pleasure of taking a course through MIAD this spring with many amazingly creative and talented photographers, which allowed me the chance to step back and shoot for me again…and I can’t tell you how refreshing that has been!  I get asked a lot what I am working on in my spare time & I am working on a site for my fine art work, but in the meantime if anyone is interested in seeing what I’ve been up to, just email me and I’ll be happy give you the link to my personal blog and/or my flickr info.  I know that some people do a fantastic job of mixing their personal and business blogs, but I just can’t bring myself to do it…I  guess I’m just shy LOL!  So…if you want to see my “other” side…just email & I’m happy to share!   

I have also been picking up with sessions again…I think everyone forgets that we can absolutely do sessions indoors…even in winter!  It seems like everyone has been waiting for that perfect green summer scene to be outdoors, which, don’t get me wrong, I LOVE to be outside…but I also love to shoot indoors…it is so intimate and real & indoor natural light is some of my favorite!  So…don’t forget…inside your home is a GREAT location!   Also…please note that my schedule is starting to get BUSY for this summer and I’m booking into the fall already, so call asap to get on the schedule if you are interested in a session this summer.  Here’s a little peek at some recent work: Isn’t she gorgeous?  And if that isn’t enough, she is kind, funny and oh so talented!  Olympic athlete, chiropractor,  writer, speaker…she does it all!  This was a fun session for me, and I think she had fun too!  MB…you are fabulous!   

Then this little beauty just charmed me & my girls…look at those blue eyes!  Thanks for playing with us baby E!  

Come and visit us this Friday night in the city of Delafield for the art walk/gallery night.  I will be displaying my work and many products at the Touch of Whimsey store on Milwaukee Street, just east of Genesee Street (Hwy C).  There will be carriage rides, food & many artists displaying their work.  It will be a great time!  So, come and visit us there from 5-8 pm on Friday and sign up from our drawing for a complimentary session!  Here’s a few images to share…not so much portraits but we’ve just been enjoying every minute of family time outdoors we can get!  I am soooo glad spring has arrived!
