Meet your photographer

The face behind the camera

Hey there! So excited you're here. My name is Shade Norberg, and I am the face behind the camera. I currently live in Rice Lake, WI. I have a wonderful boyfriend, & 3 beautiful daughters.
I have always had a passion for photography, and it all started just taking photos for family and close friends. From there, the rest is history. I have been behind the camera for around 6 years, and loving every second.
My favorite sessions are Milestone, and Cake Smash! I can't wait to meet you!

What separates me from other photographers?


Honestly... I'm not perfect, polished, or even overly "professional" -- and that's kind of the point. I'll be the first to admit that I'm a little awkward at the start of a session. Small talk isn't my strong suit. But give it a few minutes, and I promise you it'll feel like we have known each other for years.

Do I always know what to do with your hands? Absolutely not.

Do poses magically pop into my head?

Also no.

There's a very good chance that I'll be pulling up Pinterest mid-session and saying "okay wait...this one", and saying ONE more that turns into 15.

I love all types of sessions, but kiddos will always have my heart. I have 3 of my own, so I truly understand how fast they grow and how important it is to freeze those moments -- the messy, loud, silly, sweet stages that pass too quickly.

I want to feel like a new found friend. Someone you're comfortable with. Someone who's cheering you & your kids on, making dumb noises, repeating "perfect...so cute...ugh I love this one", and yes.. probably letting a swear word slip here and there, and apologizing after.

If you're looking for awkward fun and the imperfect perfection, I might be your girl.
