Milwaukee Film, Video, & Photography
Fresh snow from the first legit snowfall in Milwaukee this winter. With some unexpected fireworks.
From O’Donnell Park on the lakefront, with the cold blue Gaslight in the background.
Fireworks over Harbor House and Lake Michigan.
Virgin snow art.
From Lakeshore State Park on Lake Michigan. Looking at the growing Milwaukee skyline on an exceptionally clear summer evening.
Below is a previous post with photos and timelapse of the skyline.
A perfect summer day at Lakeshore State Park on Lake Michigan. Watching the sun set on Milwaukee’s growing skyline.

Shadowplay down the pier…
Think this would make for awesome triptych wall art…
Day – to – Sunset – to – Twilight
Exceptionally clear sky on a brisk Fall sunset. Was the day before the full moon, giving a very saturated and bright moon rise.
Colorful moon rising next to the Pilot House.

Zach has me more than a little scared here.

My right hand was on my camera while Party Boy’s young niece took this photo. Obviously I had to then do something especially cool with my left arm.

That’s MIAD (Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design) in the background. MIAD definitely has some great locations in Milwaukee’s 3rd Ward, including this one.

Franklin, the lovable inflatable, makes a blurry green cameo.
Overall, a great day and night!
I took some photos during a Milwaukee Spring evening out. Locations include La Perla (Mexican Restaurant), Lake Shore Park, and Downtown.
I just brought out a light/small/inexpensive lens, “the nifty fifty,” Canon’s EF 50mm f/1.8 lens on my Canon 5Dmk3. Photos were processed in Lightroom and about a third also had some work done in Photoshop as well. To see all 17 photos in the gallery click here.
Milwaukee Spring Night Photos AT LA PERLA FOR DINNER AND DRINKS:
Genius direction, “Um, look at the fire.” On La Perla’s patio.
🙂 Also on the patio.
Awww, I think they like each other. On the other side of the room, a guy was humping a girl on the motorized kid ride.
AT LAKE SHORE STATE PARK after dinner:
I had some sweet red-light timing on this.
Milwaukee Art Museum seen through the Lake Shore bridge. This is genius because they both have pokey things.
The girls consider jumping off the Lake Shore Bridge.
I also call this picture “Art Sauce,” but the lighting was at least done in camera. Makes me feel a little better.
A relaxing night.
Lake Shore… Marina? Whatever you call that protected water area.
Also, genius compositing by me.
These sissy ducks were totally scared of me and my evil camera.
If you could turn the camera to your left a little, you would see some mischevious kids.
This is where I park my imaginary boat.
DOWNTOWN at golden-hour before going to dinner:
The museum and the plant are competing to see who can spread their wings better. It’s a close call.
People love to hate this sculpture. But see how much fun it is?
