Snow(less) Days | Madison WI Photographer

The weather this winter has been shockingly mild. No real snow to speak of… although we did have some flurries and colder days in January it was quickly diminished by daytime temperatures that have been steadily in the high 30′s and upper 40′s. February in Madison doesn’t feel quite the same when you can still see the grass. Several friends reported seeing robins and cardinals out already, sure signs of spring in Wisconsin have already started showing up when we’ve barely entered what should be the middle of winter

I for one, can’t really complain. The mild weather has allowed me to get in some client shoots outdoors (If you’ve been thinking about doing a session get in touch! It’s seriously wonderful photography weather and besides you could also get a free 11×14 mounted print!) and daily family excursions to enjoy the outdoors. I’m a “sweater weather” kind of person, 40′s & 50′s are my cup of tea. To me this funny weather feels like a continuation of fall, which is one of my favorite seasons.

There is part of me that misses a traditional winter though. Watching snow fall… sledding & skiing… photographing snowscapes… I hope that we get a little bit of the fluffy white stuff yet this season, it would be a shame to have to do without for a whole ‘nother year.
