Clare is so much fun! She came in to let me just PLAY! Play with new props, lighting techniques and learn about how the light falls in our new studio! She even tried on a vintage hat during our photo shoot at the new Mequon Photography studio.
Thanks for the fun afternoon Clare!
I’ve photographed Aubrey 3 times now, and each time we have so much fun at the photography studio. Her dad always treats her to hair and makeup by DeRiah Salon and Boutique and we have fun playing with different hair and makeup looks. Alyssa is the amazing makeup artists and hairstylist for our shoot today! She always comes in right around her birthday (and our birthdays are only 2 days apart which is fun!) Today she brought in her iPod and we jammed out and tried tons of new stuff in the Mequon photography studio. When I was setting up lights and said I was going to try some new stuff, she said “Each year you try new stuff, how come?” To that I replied… “Because you let me!” It’s totally a blast when clients come with great clothes, and let us just try fun new stuff. The results can be unexpected — and amazing!
Aubrey is involved in pageants and her fun, rocker edge sets her apart! She has won several “Miss Photogenic” awards both locally and nationally, and its my honor to be your portrait photographer!
Thanks for a super fun session!
After numerous occasions eating the expired popcorn (yes, I admit it) that’s been hanging around the studio for…awhile…and more than my fair share of the studio’s supply of Tootsie Pops, I’m glad someone made the suggestion that we have a Shoot the Moon potluck. Actual food!? This was brilliant. (No folks, don’t think everyone at the Moon shares my horrid eating habits while at work, most have grasped the concept of bringing a lunch) But anyway… we decided last week to have our first staff potluck. The tasty lunch was a fun little bonding activity to christen our new Mequon photography studio location, and it was a great way to do it. Taco dip, veggies, salads, stuffed mushrooms, puppy chow, and the staple Sloppy Joe’s made for a variety packed spread and a happy staff afterwards. To sum up I guess my point is that I’ve learned a few things….
1) Stale popcorn is not the only option for lunch food, regardless of whether or not it seems more appealing because it’s the cheese kind.
2) Eating large amounts of taco dip will inevitably lead to a stomach ache. Every time.
3) Potlucks are not only a fun staff bonding activity but provide leftovers for more lunches that are not stale popcorn.
4) Check yourself for powdered sugar stains after consuming puppy chow.
Here is a recipe for my potluck share last week, Cucumber Sandwiches!!!
Cucumber Sandwiches
2- 8oz cream cheeses
1/4 cup mayo
1 small package italian dressing seasoning
1 large cucumber
1 package(row) cocktail-rye bread
Dill
Combine and mix cream cheese, mayo, and italian seasoning. Spread onto slices of rye bread, add one cucumber slice and sprinkle with dill. That’s it! Simple, and delicious…Enjoy!
(Don’t worry Melissa…I finally tossed the popcorn…)
Little Miss H came in for 2 year portraits today at our Mequon Photography studio and we had such fun creating 2 year old photographs for her! As you can see, Miss H loves her Little Lambies! Thanks for a fun session!
Here is one of her earlier sessions and then our new ones that we created at the studio!
Little Miss M came to our brand new
Mequon Photography studio for a portrait session with her family today! I met Miss M when she was only a newborn and I took her portrait with her dad! Now she is all grown up (age 3!) and was so much fun! Guess what? She also has a new baby sister, Miss I, whom we also photographed at the family portrait session today! Thank you for lots of giggles and fun today. I enjoyed sharing Pez with you too.
Enjoy this sneak peek!
Such a fun session today at the Mequon photography studio, where we stepped outside to enjoy some portraits in the field. Thanks for such a fun Holiday Photo session!

This is the 2nd Holiday Photo Shoot I’ve done for Elka and we ventured into her back yard for her photo shoot. We hoped the rain would hold off long enough to be able to keep our photography session outside. The setting was lovely and picture perfect and she is a natural in front of the camera! Thank you so much for allowing me to be your photographer and capture these portraits of you!
Our October is fast filling and with our beautiful weather, Holiday Sessions are probably a far away thought, but Fall is right around the corner and we do not want to miss anyone for beautiful cards this year. We have 10 new collections of cards to share that are beautiful! Shoot the Moon Photoraphy would love to photograph your family! Our Photographers have tons of fun new ideas!
For those who typically wait until further in the fall, consider booking NOW! The weather is still lovely and we can go outside!
Don’t need anything elaborate this year? Consider our new STMBasics sessions. Quick sessions with simplicity in mind! We will also be doing MINI sessions ONE more time on October 13th. Call for details!
