About Jill

modern newborn portraiture milwaukee wisconsin

  • I’ve been photographing newborns, babies and families for 3+ years now. It’s such a joy to be able to freeze these precious moments in time.
  • I have been married for 11 years and have 4 wonderful children – our 6 year old boy/girl twins , our 3 year old son and a new baby due in summer 2013.
  • I was previously an elementary school teacher for 4 years before having our twins. I’m currently homeschooling our children during the school year and plan to continue (they do have social skills, lol).
  • I like to watch documentaries. I read a lot. I always read before going to bed.
  • I very very rarely book sessions on Sundays because we go to church as a family and also try to reserve that day as our family day.
  • We have a garden in our backyard in the growing season. It is so fun growing your own food!
  • I am a night owl. Although mornings do come a bit too quickly when you have three children ages 5 and younger.:)
  • I’m not a fancy person (although I sometimes would like to be). Nice jeans and a top will do. I’m a fan of being comfortable.
  • I use exclamation marks and smiley faces a lot!!!!  I smile when I type a smiley face.:)
  • I listen to the radio almost all day. This is the  station I listen too (online and also all over the USA). KLOVE
  • I strive to be a devoted follower of Jesus. Nothing brings me more joy and peace.
  • I was a VERY shy child and teenager. I do not consider myself shy any longer. When I meet my clients I often feel like we are great friends within a very short period of time. Perhaps sharing in such amazing periods in their lives, there is a little something special in the air.:)
  • I’m a homebody. Dinner and a relaxing backyard summer campfire with friends ranks as one of my top fun things to do.
  • I use a Nikon D700 and a 50mm 1.4G . I previously used Canon, but I am very pleased with my Nikon equipment.
  • I adore both squishy curled newborn images and lifestyle photography – so I do a bit of both. I am highly critical of my own work. I desire every client to love their images.
