Outtakes from Santa Day

Santa was in our studio on December 5th taking portraits with pets. Here are some of our favorite outtakes!

Kari & Michael (October 31, 2009)

Mary and Jerry enjoyed a wonderful Halloween photographing Kari and Michael's wedding. The fall colors provided an excellent backdrop to the outdoor portraits in the chilly weather. A special thanks to the wedding party for being so cooperative and allowing us to create precious memories. Thanks Father Dan for your great ideas and for allowing us photograph inside the seminary. We hope that Kari enjoys a wonderful surprise honeymoon that Michael planned. We cannot wait to hear where the two of your celebrated your honey.

In Memory of my Dad

My father, Mauricé Pauze was a great part of my life. He passed away on October 14^th, 2009 after a long battle with cancer. As a photographer himself, he inspired me to learn and perfect my craft. I remember when I was young, my dad transformed our kitchen into a darkroom. I loved to watch him process his film. He would expose the image to light for a few second and I watched with wide-eyes as the developer processed the image like magic.

Because of my father, photography has become a large part of my life. I cannot imagine going anywhere without my camera, just like my dad. My dad had a passion for photography until the end. Last summer he still had his camera in hand at our family reunion and my son's graduation party. I am forever grateful for what my dad has inspired me to do and the countless things he has done for me.

Photography lasts a lifetime and I am thankful to have photographed my father in March of this year. This image will be with me forever and reminds me of my loving father daily. I will always have fond memories of my father and his love for photography.

My father's battle with cancer has inspired me to help others deal with loss. I have started a program at the studio that provides a complimentary family session to those families who are struggling with a terminal illness. I am so grateful to have a portrait of my father before his battle took a turn for the worse.

Nicole & Joaquin (October 3, 2009)

Mary, Jerry and Daniel had so much fun photographing and video recording Nicole & Joaquin's wedding. The drive up to Mt. Calvary was beautiful and well worth the trip. The photographs at the park with the girls were fun and turned out great. The few minutes spent at the fountain provided excellent portraits of the two of you. Maximillian's provided an excellent Reception location and great food. We look forward to driving there again for a fish fry. Daniel also said that the dancing at the Reception was some of the best that he's ever recorded.

Jennifer & Kris (September 12, 2009)

Mary and Jerry had a blast photographing Jennifer & Kris on their wedding day. Your reception at the Renaissance Place was beautiful.

Tracy & Robert (September 5, 2009)

Mary and Jerry had a fun time photographing Tracy & Robert's wedding. Robert treated Tracy like a princess the entire day. The photographs that were taken down by the rocks turned out beautiful. The two of you looked so great that the boat turned around to take a look. The two of your provided your guests with excellent treats the entire day - from dinner, to a candy bar, a sweet bar, and a late night pizza buffet. What a wonderful day.

Phantom of the Opera

The IN-FOCUS Photography staff had a night on the town attending the final production of Phantom of the Opera at the Marcus Center. The show was spectacular with excellent actors, elaborate stage designs and many surprises.

Jennifer & Phil (August 22, 2009)

Mary and Jerry had a wonderful time photographing Jennifer and Phil's wedding. It was wonderful to have 45 minutes alone with the two of you for park portraits. Every photograph taken of the two of you was perfect. It touched Jerry to see Phil tear up when he first saw Jennifer walking down the aisle. We will also be designing a sample wedding album of Phil and Jennifer's day to accompany their sample engagement album.

Melissa & Mark (August 21, 2009)

Jerry had a great time photographing Melissa and Mark's wedding. I am so glad that I jumped in the limo and we were able to get some excellent outdoor portraits. Thankfully the rain stopped and we were able to mimic Abbey Road at the park.

Jerry and Mary had a great time photographing Raquel and Matt's wedding on the Fourth of July. The day was well planned and beautiful. The sparklers and fireworks were so much fun at sunset.

Mallory & Brian (June 27, 2009)

Mary and her assistant, Nicole had a great time working with Mallory and Brian. The entire wedding party created an enjoyable atmosphere for the day.

Marlee & Mike (June 27, 2009)

Jerry and his assistant, Tegan had a wonderful time photographing the wedding day at Marlee's childhood home.

The evening ended with a great surprise: fireworks timed perfectly as the bride, groom and guests exited the reception tent.

Jerry had a great time working with Nicole and Manoel on their wedding day. The weather was beautiful and the couple had fun at the Milwaukee Art Museum. We even stopped by Lakefront Festival of the Arts for portraits of the bride and groom. I hope the couple had fun on their surprise honeymoon.

Jessica & Corey (June 13, 2009)

Jessica and Corey had a beautiful wedding day with excellent weather for outdoor portraits. Mary, her assistant Nicole, and Daniel had a great time capturing photos and video. Thankfully their wedding was last weekend, otherwise the portraits by the river would not be possible with the flooding. I hope the couple had as much fun on their honeymoon in Hawaii as we had photographing their wedding day. We plan on creating a sample wedding album and video from Jessica and Corey's day.
