New Budget-Friendly Photo Session Pricing | Beloit and Janesville, WI Children’s Portaits
Good morning everyone! I hope you are all thinking of ways to stay cool and safe during this super hot weather stretch we’re having. It is going to be an interesting week, considering we won’t be spending a lot of time outdoors. I am always so concerned with my kids overheating because they don’t know when to slow down! Today’s plan is a well-baby checkup for Abigail at 10:30 and then playtime at McDonald’s. Hopefully, we will be able to swing some early morning/late evening walks and playtime outside, because they go crazy if they are confined to the house for any length of time! Anyways…..enough of my rambling –…

Beloit, Wi Photographer | Friday Free-For-All | Top reasons I love living in the country in summertime!
I just love the summertime! Not so much the heat, but just being able to take the kids outside and do things without freezing our butts off. I am so thankful that my husband, Matt, is a country-boy at heart, so, fittingly, we live in the country. We have a lot of his family living on our road, too – so that makes it even more special! I thought I would compile a quick list (with pictures!) that showcases some of the little reasons I love summertime in the country. 1. Grandma and Grandpa’s farm We go up to Grandma and Grandpa’s house quite a bit! The kids love it. …

Beloit Photographer | Portfolio updated!
As you may know – I am a complete perfectionist when it comes to certain things – my business being one of those things. So…I was looking at my site again and decided that my portfolio page wasn’t very user-friendly. I was trying to be all “unique and stuff” – but I think it was more confusing than anything. LOL! Not to mention – a total pain to actually get to see all the pictures. I went through it this weekend and arranged it in a more traditional manner…by category. I also added lots more pictures and a link to more of my work if you’d like to see it.…
