Hudson's Year In Review | Sussex, WI Newborn Portrait Photographer | Michelle Alyce Photography

Being chosen to document my clients’ special moments is the absolute best part of my job. No matter how many families I photograph or how many years I continue my business, the feeling I get when my clients trust me to capture priceless moments that they will cherish forever NEVER gets old. I do not take that responsibility lightly and pour my entire self into every moment I spend with my clients and creating their beautiful heirlooms. I am so thankful every day for the blessings I have been given and for the opportunity to serve my clients. Now, take that feeling and multiply it times a million when clients come back again and again for multiple sessions. I have such a passion for preserving these fleeting moments, the fresh newborn features, the chubby sitter thighs, the first few teeth as they start popping through gummy smiles, first steps, milestones and birthdays as they grow and change over the years, those almost adult-like features as they prepare to graduate high school, the change to a more professional look when it’s time to put on that “business” hat, the rounding belly that promises life will never be the same again, the wisdom and wrinkles that show a life well lived… and so much more. These are the moments I live for and the ones I’m so grateful to be chosen to capture time and time again.

Hudson’s mommy and daddy give me that feeling. They hoped, prayed and waited for little Hudson to come along and choose them as his mommy & daddy, and then they chose me to document this special time for them. This little boy is such a miracle and is an absolute joy to everybody who knows him. He’s the perfect mix of sweet and charming with a little bit of sass. ;) He has shown his personality in every session I’ve had with him and I just love how his portraits have turned out.
