You'll most likely recognize the name, 'Mike Schneider' from the photos he has shared with us here on the Pasty Cam...that's him in today's photos, along with his family. Mike and his wife were wanting to get some family photos taken, so he contacted fellow photographer (and also a Pasty Cam contributor), Brita Haapala to get the job done. And boy, did she ever, with a very unique style that captures the family doing fun things together on the shores of Lake Superior. I love how the allure of the Keweenaw is showcased here, along with the beauty of Mike's family. Thanks for letting us share in the fun!

For more fun things that Brita and her camera have been up to, check out her Photography Blog.

Nice meeting you, Mike.

You have a beautiful family, Mike, thanks for sharing your fun! I, like Deb, love the last photo with all the smiles of complete happiness!

I just love the joyous photos today. The lake setting is awesome!

Great photos Brita, and also all the photos you contribute as well Mike!! J

Wouldn't it be nice if someday we could get all the serious PastyCam photographers together and go on a couple day photographic adventure across the UP??? I'd be in.....

Mike...I just noticed that you have an uncanny resemblance to my brother-in-law, and your oldest son looks like my nephew, Mike who is pictured on my profile pic.

Some of the skill in preparing these photos is the good choice of colors to wear. They fit in with the water colors just perfectly.

Thanks to Brita and Mike for all the wonderful photos over the years.

It is amazing what joy the click of a shutter will offer.

Brita I love what you are doing!!!

Nice family pic. I'm late writing this because my wife and I spent some time at Batchawana Bay in the Dominion of Canada.


By Brita Haapala (Britach) on Saturday, August 18, 2012 - 04:02 pm:

Thank you so much, everyone! Mike's family was so much fun to photograph, as you can see in the pictures. They were so relaxed and just being themselves in front of the camera.
