:Cailey is ONE:

Cailey turned 1 back in August and we finally had great weather that allowed us to get outside for her session.  Much to my surprise, my little :twinkle toe: {for those of you who are new, my grow-up plan is called the :twinkle toes: plan, so the kiddos who are plan members are called :twinkle toes:}was not just learning to walk....she had decided to do that shortly after our 9 month session! this fairly newfound love of walking and being outside meant this beautiful little girl no longer was going to sit still, nope, she was gonna make me work for it.  however; with a little help from an oversized hat, a ride-on train toy, a chair, and mom + dad we managed to complete our session successfully!  it's hard to believe in just 2 months it'll be time for my next adventure with this pretty little lady....and i thought my kids grew up too fast!

Justina+Brian|WI Dells Wedding

justina + brian were married in a gorgeous outdoor ceremony last August in the Dells.  guests took a boat to their ceremony location; while we were lucky ducks {pun intended} and took a historic wisconsin duck to the ceremony.  a breathtaking location, unique transportation, and a black + white theme all contributed to their perfect ceremony which was followed up with yet more gorgeousness at their reception at Buffalo Phil's {where the beautiful bride & much of the bridal party was employed}.  a donut cake, black + white satin wrapped chairs, amazing centerpieces, one of the couple's favorite bands playing during the cocktail hour, a delicious meal, rockin' dj, and a couple whose love radiates from one another made every minute of their day both extraordinarily special and unique.  congratulations to Mr. + Mrs. Rowland.  i wish the two of you and your gorgeos children a lifetime of happiness.

{Ashley+Luke|WI Wedding Photographer}

ashley+luke were married last august in a beautiful ceremony.  it truly was a beautiful day.  gorgeous bride, amazing weather, lavish dress, amazing cathedral, and a super fun reception.  here are two of my favorites from their day {wich again were done many months ago, i am just neglectful to my blog and am playing catch up}

{Ashley+Matt|Married}

better late than never, right?  i admittedly forget about my blog way too often. 

matt + ashley were married at the end of july in marshfield, wi {their wedding photos were edited within a week of their weddings, not a full 5 months later like this blog post would lead one to believe}.  the rain held off throughout their ceremony, but arrived just in time for us to be ready to head outside for some post-ceremony pictures.  thankfully, with the help of umbrellas and the grace of God, we managed to get out of church without being soaked, made it to Hudson's for drinks and the rain cleared just in time for us to be able to get some shots downtown marshfield before dinner. 

{Lisa's Little Darlings}

Way back in July, I met up with Lisa and her darling children for a session in Medford.

Natalie is the resident Princess, Christian is all boy and a typical 2 year old, and Landon is

the laid back, go with the flow kinda guy.  Landon was 8 months old when these images were

captured.  Since I've missed his earlier milestones (I'm his Godmother), watch for a BIG

session coming up in November for his 1 year!!

Aiden + Jack

Since I missed posting Aiden + Jack's first session back in July {I know, I said I'd stay caught up!! shame on me} here is a full post of my favorites from both their sessions.

To view a full gallery of their images, please visit our facebook page!

:Benjamin|Brand New Baby:

meet our newest :twinkle toe: plan member Benjamin!  Ben was just 5 days old at his first session and so alert. he was such a little trooper despite the ridiculously hot weather the day of his session. AND he didn't pee on me when we did the au' natural shots....he's a keeper in my book!  cannot wait to watch Ben grow throughout his first year and through his lifetime.

Aidyn|7 weeks

since the cutie patootie Aidyn didn't want to have his pictures taken at 4 weeks, and i was heading over to Oshkosh to photograph Piper AND Aidyn literally lives right behind Piper, I shot another mini session for him.  this time around, he was a little more interested in having his picture taken.  perhaps it was the super sweet props his momma put together, the fact we were in his own home this time, or the stuffed fish his gramma gifted his big sis + him.  either way, he made me fall in love with him all over again and despite our session being mini, he managed to produce some majorly cute shots.  Kenna would've LOVED for the session to turn into her very own again, however; he was definitely the star this day.

{Chase is ONE}

early last week, we were finally able to get Chase's one year session in....or at least the first half.  previously, we rescheduled due to rain + illness so we were determined to get at least the studio portion of his session in despite the incredible heat indexes we were subject to.  these are a few of my favorites from his session and i look forward to shooting the 2nd outdoor half of his session {hopefully} next week {please cooperate, weather + life}!!  it seems like just yesterday we met Chase + his momma through my children's daycare and Chase was the baby in the infant room at just 3 months old.  crazy how fast time flies and crazy to think that my 17 month old was just an itty bitty 8 month old....whew, time had better slow down.  welcome to the world of toddler-hood Chase!!

{Piper|9 weeks}

Miss Piper Leigh is a very special :twinkle toes: plan member.  she is getting her picture taken every month for the entire first year.  she had pictures taken minutes after being born as part of her parents' birth photography, at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 9 weeks, and will again at 12 weeks and then every 4 weeks thereafter.  this is not my normal 5 session plan for the first year, however; i like a good challenge and photographing a baby every month for 12 months definitely {should} keep you on your toes.  i am incredibly blessed to call Piper's mom one of my best friends, however; this platinum :twinkle toes: plan is available to any of my clients, so if you're interested, please let me know and i will gladly get you a quote.

{McKenna|Children's Session}

 meet the beautiful big sister of Aidyn, McKenna!  Aidyn may not have been interested in having his pictures taken during his 4 week/newborn session, however; big sis Kenna definitely was not shy in front of the camera and our session quickly turned from Aidyn's session into McKenna's session.  I absolutely adore this gorgeous little girl and feel incredibly blessed that I was able to meet her. she is not only gorgeous but also very madly in love with her little brother.

{twinkle toes}

as promised here are a few of Aidyn + Piper together.  Piper is 6 weeks old in these ande Aidyn is 4 weeks old.  they are just darling and shooting them together, made me long even more to shoot twins.  so if you or someone you know has newborn twins or is expecting twins {or any multiples}, contact me for a GREAT deal on a :twinkle toes: package!! absoluteblissphotography@yahoo.com

{Aidyn|Newborn Session}

meet Aidyn....Aidyn just happens to be Piper's neighbor and he was born 2 weeks after her.  i think {and their momma's might agree} that they will be soul mates.  watch for a mini-blog with a few shots of the two of them together up next.  Aidyn was not so sure he wanted to have his pictures taken this day, so we only got a few shots of him <but lots of his adorable older sister> these are a few of my favorites from his day.
