Celebrating ONE Year of Reagan! | Sussex, WI Milestone Photographer | Michelle Alyce Photography

Reagan is ONE! From bump to baby to big girl, I have loved photographing this little lady over the last year and am so excited to watch her grow!

We had such a beautiful winter evening for Taryn & Brian’s maternity portrait session. The white snow combined with the stunning sunset provided the most dreamy lighting - definitely swoonworthy!

I was so happy Taryn & Brian brought their beloved pup along for the session! I always welcome fur-siblings in our portrait sessions!

After absolutely loving the peach, green, white and brown tones from the maternity session, I decided to stick with the same color scheme for Reagan’s newborn portrait session. This allows my clients to create a cohesive look when displaying their portraits in their homes.

Taryn and Brian didn’t want an overly “themed” set or anything too busy for Reagan’s 1st Birthday Smash & Splash Portrait Session, so I knew just what to do… an elegant, floral theme to carry the colors through from the first two sessions.

Happy Birthday to sweet Reagan! I can’t wait to see her again in a few months to continue photographing her as she grows!
