Kate Craft Photography was developed from my love of family, fun, and preserving memories.My two young children, my Hubby, and I spend our days and nights in the beautiful north-woods of Wisconsin (a great backdrop for stunning photos). I love Mtn Dew, Starbucks, (are you seeing a theam here)my pug, summers and fall, the beach, a good book, dancing till I am dizzy, and laughing till it hurts.
Please enjoy reading the blog and don't forget to check out the website and the senior site. I look forward to meeting you, whether as a client, or via comment, email or facebook. Thanks for visiting.
For those of you who may have missed the last 6 months posts here is the scoop I’m doing another photography project with an awesome group of ladies. This is not a 365 day project, or even a 52 week project I have committed to a 12 month project and made it half way through so far! Be prepared for lots of pictures of Lil’ P and Miss K, as this project has a life style feel to it. In the last year I have realized I do not have nearly enough pictures of my kids doing the everyday stuff my kids do! We are calling the series “The Story of ________” and we’ll each be filling in our own blanks. At the end of this post is a link to another photographer who participated and she’ll be linking to someone else. It’s a whole big circle of stories in pictures. Please click through and enjoy all the posts!

Just a simple tip this week …You don’t always need a huge beautiful area to get the shot! Here is another pullback showing a location I recently used to get a rare photograph of Lil’ P and Miss K together. The red arrow shows their location and the blue one shows where I was positioned. And I of course had to share both the black and white and color version.


HAPPY SHOOTING
