I donated a session to a silent auction for a very worthy cause back in July. I was so excited to hear that this family won! Everyone was willing to do whatever I asked of them. I didn’t even have to be goofy to get natural smiles, they are just such a fun family! […]
I have been wanting to shoot at my in laws farm ever since we moved back to Minnesota. I finally got the chance when H wanted a “rustic” location. This was PERFECT! Of course, there was a lot of family at the house and watching us, lol. H handled it like a pro and we had […]
I love this family. My husband has known A his whole life and they are like brothers. I photographed their wedding and was so excited to capture their first family photos with their new little prince. Apparently, Baby B is not all that thrilled about portraits just yet. He was really good, but then […]
I was so pleased to be asked to take ~A~’s senior portraits. Hearing that he wanted to take them at the skate park had me running wild with ideas. This time I was SO happy I wasn’t pregnant anymore! I was able to roll around and move around a lot easier then I could […]
Everyone was complaining a couple weeks ago about how Summer was gone, we are in for an early Fall/Winter. Well, Summer reared her ugly head this week and proved us all wrong. We have been in the 90s with HIGH humidity. Yuck. However, when I’m shooting, I forget just for a few moments of how […]
It was hot, I’m not going to lie. However, for a couple hours I almost forgot I was pregnant, it was that fun! Having minnows nibble on my toes while shooting was a first for me! ~E~ was another photogenic senior, and made my job so easy. Their backyard is seriously a photographer’s dream!! […]
Being 36 weeks pregnant, it isn’t the easiest thing to take photos at this point. However, these three made my job easy! We spent some time at the lake with some beautiful evening light. I am loving these Minnesota locations!! Beautiful children “What strange creatures brothers are!” […]
I am so fortunate to have such beautiful Senior reps this year! Again, I am so happy I decided to do senior portraits. Morgan had picked a location that is a photographer’s dream! She sent me photos over the weekend and I was so excited to shoot there. The outfits she picked worked perfectly […]
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 If you know me, you know my horse is very special to me. I have posted about him before. He has been […]
To be honest, I wasn’t sure I wanted to do Senior portraits. Then my niece, who is graduating in 2015, already told me she wanted me to do her photos next year. My husband then asked me the question, “Why don’t you want to do senior photos?”, and I didn’t have an answer. The last […]
