Brian + Sara + Loki + Raja

I always love sessions with past clients and this one in particular meant a lot. I photographed Brian and Sara’s wedding a couple years ago and we still stay in touch and get to catch up from time to time.   I was excited to hear from Sara recently, but was saddened to hear the news that, Loki, their two year old lab-border collie is having kidney failure.  Last year we lost our “buddy” Boomer. We had almost 15 wonderful (even though he was notorious for stealing our shoes) years with him. Knowing that dogs are a large part of a family, Sara and I made arrangements to capture an afternoon in the life of Loki.  I also got up close and personal (as in licked in the face) with Raja, their other dog.  Both did such a good job for me!

And because we couldn’t leave Boomer out…

We miss you “Boom-Boom”!!!:)

Brian and Sara - Shawn!

We looooooooooove these!!! So much! You absolutely captured the personalities of our pups. I cannot tell you how happy and joyful these pictures make us. Can’t wait to see them all! A HUGE HUGE HUGE thank you!!! It’s going to be hard to pick which ones will end up framed. But that’s a fabulous problem to have. BTW, Loki’s latest blood work showed some great improvements and we don’t have to be back at the vet’s for a month as long as Loki keeps it up. Good to meet Boomer. Adorable.

As always, it’s fabulous to work with you!

Brandon + Amy

Brandon and Amy were married on Saturday, December 26th in Durand, WI. I love the winter theme of their wedding…Amy’s bouquet was stunning! They are definitely two of the bravest souls that Shawn has photographed this year…they currently live in Alabama! They toughed the bitter cold for some great shots outside! Congrats!:)

Bailey is a ’10 Senior from Memorial. I love this girl’s sense of style! Those rain boots are so cool – you can’t tell from the black & white photo below but they were bursting with yellow, orange and green! I can’t believe the senior season is wrapping up already! It feels like it just started! Boy, this year is flying! Enjoy your sneak peek Bailey!
