There is something extraordinary about watching someone discover what happens when they give themselves permission to simply BE in front of a camera.

Elizabeth recently came into my studio for a RAW portrait session, and together we explored an incredible range of movement, emotion, expression, and stillness.

RAW is a different kind of portrait experience. We work in black and white, without professional hair and makeup, and without retouching. The experience is deliberately stripped back, leaving room for whatever the person in front of my camera brings into the space.

And Elizabeth brought so much.

Afterward, she shared something about the experience that I feel is at the heart of RAW:

“This photo captures an internal landscape that I usually don't express outwardly, sometimes not even to myself.”

She went on to describe how much she discovered about herself during the session, and how freeing it felt to explore without the expectations of the different roles she occupies in everyday life.

I think these photographs speak beautifully to that experience. There is joy here. Tenderness. Strength. Playfulness. Introspection. A whole human being, in all her beautiful complexity.

And there's one more thing Elizabeth told me that I keep coming back to.

One of her favorite photographs was one where she could see the cellulite on her legs. Something she'd spent years disliking and trying to hide.

And this time, looking at herself in a photograph, she liked what she saw.

I can't think of a better reason to keep doing this work.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for trusting me with this experience. ❤️

I didn’t invent the post-breakup portrait session. My clients did.

Over the years, quite a few people have arrived at my studio after the end of a relationship. Some want to recognize themselves again after spending years as part of a couple. Some are celebrating freedom, confidence, or the beginning of a completely different life.

Some simply want to look incredible and create professionally lit evidence that someone made a terrible mistake.

One woman immediately connected with a “Bitch” ring that was already in my studio. A former partner had used the name against her, and wearing it proudly in her portraits allowed her to claim it for herself. Iconic behavior, shared here with her enthusiastic permission.

A portrait session can be glamorous, sensual, playful, powerful, or all of the above. You can rediscover parts of yourself, try something you have always wanted to try, and decide exactly how this chapter deserves to be remembered.

Sometimes the occasion is simply becoming the one who got away.

Would you book a post-breakup portrait session? 👀

Meet Jessamy Tsoris, the designer behind Color Zen interiors.

Jessamy is an award-winning Milwaukee interior designer specializing in everything from major remodels and new builds to furnishings, exterior restyles, color consultation and commercial spaces.

Her work is modern, thoughtful, colorful and unmistakably design-forward, but one of the things her clients tell her again and again is something much simpler:

She listens.

Jessamy has a remarkable ability to bring her own trained eye, creativity and point of view to a project while still making the finished space feel deeply personal to the people who actually live there. It’s one of the reasons so many of her client relationships become long-term ones.

And that eye is getting some well-deserved recognition. Jessamy is also a recent Milwaukee Magazine Home & Design Award winner. 🏆

She first came to my studio three years ago for branding photographs, and this year she came back ready for the next evolution of her brand.

Modern. Artful. Fashion-forward. A little edgy. Plenty of color. And, at Jessamy’s insistence, LOTS of white space.

I'm so excited to share what we made. ♥

Claudia knew it was time for a new headshot. ❤️

We’ve worked together before for both portrait and branding photography, so when she needed an updated professional image, she came back to the studio.

And Claudia was very specific about one thing: she wanted a real photograph. She’d considered the increasingly available option of AI-generated headshots and decided that wasn’t how she wanted to represent herself professionally.

So we made something current. Something polished. Something that actually looks like Claudia, because it is Claudia. 😍

I love getting to photograph people again as the years go by. Your professional image isn’t something you make once and keep forever. Careers evolve. Businesses change. We change.
Every so often, it’s simply time for the photograph to catch up.

Claudia, it was wonderful having you back in front of my camera. ❤️

It's National Dessert Day, so naturally I'm serving up my husband. 😂

This is Dan. ❤️ He's worked for UPS for almost 25 years. Which means his body has also worked for UPS for almost 25 years.

Lifting. Carrying. Walking. Reaching. Climbing up and down the rafters and belts in the hub almost endlessly, clearing jams. In the cold, in the heat. Thousands upon thousands of ordinary movements repeated over decades.

These days, he also lifts a little and practices yoga at home, largely because he wants to take care of that body. To stay strong. Stay mobile. Prevent injury. Keep feeling good as he gets older.

And when I started creating PHYSIQUE, he asked me if I would photograph him. Because I love him. And I loved the idea of making photographs that might let him see some of what I see when I look at him.

The strength he's built. The work his body has done. How amazing he is.

I spend so much of my life helping other people see themselves with a little more appreciation, and there was something especially meaningful about getting to do that for him.

Dan's strength doesn't come from training for a stage. It's been built over decades of work, movement, taking care of himself, and simply living in this body.

Almost 25 years of work.

Worth photographing. ❤️

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day. ❤️

Last winter, I created IDENTITY | STYLED, a portrait series celebrating contemporary women through the traditional cultural clothing that is meaningful to them.

One of the women I had the privilege of photographing was Audra TwoThunders, an Ojibwe woman, artist and mother here in Wisconsin.

For this portrait, Audra chose a modern look featuring an appliqué apron she created. She told me it was meaningful because it expressed her talents as an artist and reflected who she is as an Ojibwe woman who wants to stand out and be confident in today’s world.

When I asked what she hoped people would see in her portraits, Audra talked about wanting people in Milwaukee to recognize that Indigenous people are here, living and thriving in the city, and to move beyond stereotypes of what a Native woman is supposed to look like.

She said, “Being Native is not just a small chapter in history. It’s a living, powerful presence today.”

Audra spoke about raising her children with ceremony and tradition, about living in an urban setting while remaining deeply connected to home and cultural identity, and about showing people that Native women cannot be confined to one image.

Today, on Indigenous Peoples’ Day, I’m honored to share another portrait of Audra.

It’s a living, powerful presence today. ❤️

Meet Katie O’Keefe, owner and broker of Dream Realty. ❤️

Katie has been helping people buy and sell homes for more than 20 years, and she’s built her business around something that sounds simple but matters enormously when you’re making one of the biggest decisions of your life: communication.

She loves helping buyers navigate a process that can feel intimidating or overwhelming, celebrating with first-time homeowners, and helping sellers move into whatever comes next. And after two decades in the business, many of those client relationships have turned into lifelong friendships.

Katie describes herself as approachable, fun, feisty and professional, with a little luxury thrown in. 😍 She also happens to be celebrating a pretty fabulous milestone this year: 50.

So when we created her new branding images, we wanted them to feel like the woman behind the business: sophisticated and polished, with plenty of warmth and personality.

Please meet Katie O’Keefe of Dream Realty. I’m so happy to introduce her to you. ❤️

Turns out, I ask a LOT of my PHYSIQUE clients. 😂

Flex. Hold it. Harder. Shoulders down. Chin out. Breathe. Now hold THAT. Okay, relax. Shake it out. Let’s do it again.

I’ve spent nine months directing people through these sessions from behind the camera. Experiencing one from the other side gave me a whole new appreciation for just how much WORK goes into making these photographs.

The flexing is hard. Holding the flex while also trying to make a beautiful shape is harder. Floor work is apparently an assault on the 44-year-old body. 😂 There were deep breaths. Pushups. Wobbles. Weird little dances. Several faces that will thankfully never become photographs.

But holy s**t, the payoff.

There is something incredibly satisfying about putting that much physical effort into a photograph and then SEEING what your body can do.

A tiny shift and suddenly there’s the shoulder you’ve been building. A harder flex and there’s your back. Change the light, change the angle, find the tension, and muscles you see every day become shapes and lines and sculpture.

And then you get to keep it.

Those last few seconds of this reel are why we do all the ridiculous s**t in the first ten. 😂❤️

I understand my clients a little better now.

And yes, I may need to start providing electrolytes. 😂

THIS. This is how I want you to feel in photographs. 🧡

Happy. Confident. Completely alive.

Meet Rebecca, the recipient of this year’s Studio Gift for Contemporary Portraiture.

Rebecca is a photographer herself, which means she’s much more accustomed to being the person behind the camera. She applied for the Studio Gift after a remarkable few years of transformation, including losing more than 150 pounds and building a body she is incredibly proud of.

And there is so much more I want to show you from this day.

We photographed strength. We photographed glamour. We played with fashion and color and movement. We made portraits that are quiet and portraits that take up the whole damn room.

But I wanted to start here.

Because when I look at this photograph, I don’t just see a beautiful portrait of Rebecca.

I see the feeling I want every person who walks into my studio to have a photograph of themselves experiencing.

Joyful. Confident. Completely themselves. Having an absolute fu***ng ball in front of my camera. 🧡

Welcome to Rebecca’s Studio Gift.

So much more coming soon…

Okay. NOW you can see what we made. ❤️

Meet Serai, founder of Whisk & Wonder Cooking Club and the recipient of this year’s Studio Gift for Personal Branding.

When Serai applied, I was immediately drawn to the world she was building: colorful, playful, joyful, and centered around helping kids build confidence and curiosity in the kitchen.

So we built a brand session that felt like her.

There was an obscene amount of produce. There were bold colors, bread, flour, flowers, eggs, approximately seventeen trips back and forth across the studio, and one very enthusiastic photographer. 😆

And underneath all of that beautiful chaos was a plan: to create a library of images that gives Serai a visual world as distinctive as the business she’s building.

This is just the first. So much more to come.

Welcome to Whisk & Wonder Cooking Club. ❤️
