I flew back to Minnesota for this amazing wedding. I knew it was going to be an amazing day. The icing on the cake was seeing a wedding dress draped over a chair where the girls were getting ready. I was confused, why would Vickie put her dress on the chair? Oh no, it wasn’t […]
Yes, I slacked on posts last week. Again, things are still all over the place on our lives. I am grateful for a roof over our heads, food in our bellies and beautiful scenery to greet me every day. I know we will be in our house soon, I just need to keep going. This […]
I am going to start something new. Every Tuesday, I will do a post with some helpful hints and tips. It could be about taking photos, how to prepare for sessions, frequently asked questions, etc. Let’s kick it off this week with a photo taking tip! Most of us know the “rules” of photography. Don’t […]
I met Matt and Katie last year and was so excited they chose my team and I to photograph their wedding. It was truly an amazing day! Katie knew exactly what she wanted and that made my job so easy! These two are perfect for one another, and Katie is so supportive of her man […]
It is no lie that I LOVE light. I mean, I live and breath by the lighting of a session or wedding. If there is overcast, that’s totally fine, gives us more options on locations. But give me some flare, and I am in heaven. That’s why timing is so important for natural light […]
Portraits should be fun. Any kind of portrait session should show you for who you are. Who you are right this moment. If you are a goofy family, then you should be goofing off. Case in point. My sister’s family. My brother-in-law is the least serious person I know. He makes jokes about […]
I recently put out there wondering what YOU guys wanted to know. My one and only comment (thanks guys! jk!) was about family sessions. I will be honest, I have wanted to post something about family sessions and things to expect and how to plan. So, this is perfect! Family session season is just around […]
I just had Carlie’s reveal session last night and was thrilled with how much her and her mom loved her photos. That is one of my favorite parts of a session, hearing the reaction 🙂 Again, with Carlie, we got to hang out a bunch. She opted for summer, fall and winter photos. It was […]
I am so excited to finally blog this wedding. M contacted me about their wedding a year ago. She was concerned about the height difference between her and T, I told her it would be a fun challenge and not to worry. You can see in their engagement photos here, that we used a lot […]
Had a wonderful morning with this family in August. I am always happy when it is overcast, no shadows! We had free reign of the yard with no worries!! How fun was it that their foreign exchange student from Sweden from years ago came to visit with her parents, sister and kids! They were such […]
