George | 6 Months | Milwaukee Child and Family Photographers

This guy was such a joy to photograph! I am a total sucker for blue eyes for starters, plus he was just a happy little guy the whole time! To top it off his parents brought some awesome outfits for him that just added to the cuteness. Great job guys! :)

Nick | Class of 2014 | Milwaukee Newborn, Family, Senior Photographer

Nick here was a really good sport. I could be wrong, but I don't think a lot of 17 year old guys are terribly excited about doing a photo shoot. Despite that, he did a really great job of just rolling with it! Eventually, though, I took one picture too many and he was "done." It made for one of my favorite shots of the day :)

Wes & Macey | 7 & 5 | Milwaukee Newborn, Family Photographer

These two kids are some of my favorites. I've known both of them since the day they were born and it was so fun to get them in front of my camera. I see them all the time, but seeing them this way made me really step back and realize how OLD they are getting!! Okay so they are still only 7 and 5, but still....they're like big kids now! Adorable as ever, though :)

Lily | 5 Years | Milwaukee Newborn, Family Photographer

When we bought our house almost four years ago, there was one room that we didn't really know what to do with. It has wood flooring, leaded glass windows, built in shelves, french doors and a separate entrance from the outside. It's always been our favorite room in the house, but we never really turned it into a usable space because we didn't know exactly what we wanted to do with it. It turns out that our indecision has served us quite well in this case! It's now my home studio and it couldn't be more perfect.

Over the past few months I've accumulated the necessary equipment to transform this into a studio that not only serves newborns well, but will also allow me to take children's photos all year long and in all kinds of weather! Don't get me wrong - I will always love outdoor photos with nature as the backdrop, but it's nice to be able to provide options :)

Little Miss Lily here helped me get the ball rolling just in time for her 5th birthday later this week. Is she not the most beautiful little girl??

Oliver | 3 Weeks | Milwaukee Newborn, Child and Family Photographer

This family was so great to work with. I feel like I say that all the time, but it's so true! All of these wonderful people keep letting me in on a little sliver of their lives and I just don't think it could ever get old to me. This particular family was here for their little guy's newborn pictures. He had a little stint in the hospital after he was born so he was a little older than a typical newborn (a whopping three weeks...haha), but that meant he was bright eyed, expressive and really able to stare me down which I always love! All around, it was a great session :)

Miranda | Class of 2014 | Milwaukee Newborn, Family, Senior Photographer

So Miranda here made my job incredibly easy. Not only is she beautiful (obviously), but she was super easy going and just went with whatever ideas I had for her. I think her attitude completely showed through in her photos - she looks so relaxed and happy in all of them! Mission accomplished if you ask me :)

Christopher | 6 Days | Milwaukee Newborn Photographers

I was extra super excited to meet this little guy because he's the firstborn of some really great friends. It's always exciting to see your friends transition from a couple to a couple of parents! And this boy's mama? To say she is in love wouldn't even come close. I'm pretty sure she literally missed him while I was taking his pictures even though she was right there in the room with us :) I think he missed her too because when she was close and her hand was near him, he was visibly calmer than when she was a few feet farther away sitting in a chair. So sweet.

Christmas Mini Sessions

I've been hemming and hawing about whether to offer something like this my first year in business...I wanted to make sure I could do it right and give everyone a top notch experience! With a little research and planning, however, I was able to come up with a great offer that I am really excited and confident about. I found a perfect location that will let clients decide exactly what kind of "feel" they want for their photos so now all I can do say a little prayer that it doesn't rain that day! But if it does, we have a rain day so we should be covered :)

If you have questions or would like to secure a spot, please email me at thermusphotography@gmail.com.

UPDATE: 2:45 and 3:45 are the only remaining spots!

Edith | 10 Days | Milwaukee Newborn Photographer

Edith's first ever photo session was broken into three equal parts, as I realized once I went through all of the photos. About a third of her photos are of her sleeping, another third are of her awake and peacefully taking in the world, and the final third are of her in her parents' arms where she was very, very happy to be at the time! It made for a really great mix of images in my opinion :)
