I was so excited to get to see the Brenner family again! I’ve been photographing them since their first daughter, Audrey, was born, and I’ve been so pleased to be able to watch them grow. We’ve known them forever—Jason is a lifelong friend of my husband’s, and they were even attendants in our wedding!

Every year, we take a trip to Door County, so this year, we decided to do a family session at Peninsula State Park in Fish Creek, WI. It’s such a beautiful area!

We went up to the Eagle Bluff Lighthouse, and it was so much fun! I could tell they were enjoying themselves—I was able to capture so many genuine smiles and real laughs! The kids—Audrey, Jack, and Katherine—were just beautiful, as well!

We ended the session in a wooded area as Audrey and Katherine wore their Frozen princess dresses. It was even more fun because the location gave such a mystical feel to their photos!

Holly & Jason, thank you for your continued friendship and for allowing me to be part of your lives and to photograph you all as you continue to grow. Our sessions together are always so much fun, and I can’t wait for the next one!
