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 […]
Hailey was my other senior model from Tracy. She has wanted me to take her senior portraits since she was a freshman in high school. She had been our babysitter since she was 12 years old. She became like a little sister to my husband and I. A part of our family. It was an […]

When I attended the Mankato Bridal Show in January, I gave away an engagement session and boudoir session. B was the lucky winner of the engagement session! They are having a destination wedding in the fall, but wanted to capture some pure Minnesota images. We met up at Minneopa State Park. I had never been […]
I am finally blogging my last 2017 wedding, five weeks before my first of 2018 🙂 Truth is, I was procrastinating on this post. I wasn’t ready to end 2017 yet. It was such an amazing year, with amazing people. It will be hard to beat. I met S at the Marshall bridal show in […]
