Meet Dallas, the last of my student representatives! I met Dallas, his mom and girlfriend at his high school to take pictures of him representing his favorite sport, wrestling. After experiencing the boys locker room (let's just say it's definitely different than a girls locker room)  and trying to figure out how to turn the lights out in the gym we headed out in the gloomy November weather to the football field.  Dallas and his girlfriend are so stinkin' cute and photogenic I could take pictures of them all day long :) They showed me downtown Wapak and I'm totally in love with it's charm.  Dallas thanks for being my rep and a breeze to photograph!

This family was the last family session of my very busy fall season. Fall is a beautiful time to shoot, but....it is usually cold! Miss Brooklyn was all about the blanket I brought. Halfway through the session I could tell she was cold and wasn't feeling the whole picture thing anymore. I bribed one more picture out of her before wrapping her up. Welp,  you can pretty much see that blanket in the rest of the pictures. Sorry Alyse I hope you liked that blanket lol. The boys were....well, boys :) And Logan a stereotypical middle child!! He reminded me so much of my middle child...ornery with a capital O. He is a bunny ear and silly face fan :) I think I had to give him my "I don't think so" mom face  a couple of times. But he is game to do anything you ask. Noah, the oldest, was quiet, patient and helpful. I love seeing how each family interacts and the love they have for each other. Thanks Alyse & Matt for choosing me to capture your family!
