The B Family- MN Family Photographer

I headed out to this family's lovely home for their session and was happy to see it was quite the winter wonderland! While it was cold, as winter sessions tend to be ;) , it still made for some gorgeous outdoor portraits and they were great sports! At the end we REALLY had some fun with the snow :) Thanks B Family!

Miss H and Cousin M - MN Baby Photographer

It was already time for H's 9 month session! Where is the time going! For this session from her baby club membership cute cousin M got in on a few photos. Got some fun shots of H and Grandpa S reading Rudolph on the couch together- so sweet :) This little girl is growing like a weed, can't believe we are already talking 1st year photo session! Merry Christmas J Family!

Mr. & Mrs. B - MN Wedding Photographer

I was so happy to be asked to be a second shooter for Melissa Dale Photography for this lovely couple. I had only just met them and you could just tell they were deeply in love and so happy together. What a treat to get to photograph them and be a part of their special day. It was a cold, but beautiful day for a wedding and the whole party was just wonderful about bearing the cold for some GORGEOUS outdoor portraits to be treasured always! Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. B- enjoy your new journey together :)

The S Family - MN Family Photographer

I headed out on this FRIGID afternoon to go photograph this great family. We had been planning this shoot for a while and it just so happened to be extremely cold and we were supposed to get hit by a blizzard, but they were troopers and wanted to go ahead as planned and were STILL game for some quick outdoors shots. We worked in shifts, in and out, in and out, and we got it done like champs! ;) And the photographs- you be the judge, but I think well worth braving the cold! Thanks so much to you all for being sports about the temperature and putting on your happy faces for me to snap some quick photographs, what memories you'll have of that day!

Mr. D - MN Child Photographer

I was so happy to get to photograph this little gentleman again- last time we met up it was pretty hot outside, now this time it was pretty chilly! We still snuck outside for a few quick family photos though and he didn't seem to mind a bit! Then the fun began inside with his solo pics :) What a sweetheart!! He had all of us working hard to get some grins, but it was worth it ;)Thanks so much K family!!

{Sisters} - MN Child Photographer

I have too many favorites from this session! These girls are so beautiful and I LOVED their outfits- PERFECT styling for a session- coordinating with lots of texture and LOVE the color scheme! This session is actually the product of when I raffled off a photography package with all benefits going towards supporting a cause dear to my heart, Operation Bootstrap Africa. This all took place in the late spring and we finally got our schedules to align for the shoot. Thank you so much L for your generous bidding on the package and for your "extra help" that day ;)

The F Family - MN Family Photographer

Everything about this shoot was gorgeous- the family, the children, the home, the snowy day, the lighting in their beautiful home (for sale I believe if anyone is looking ;) ) and the photos of course! ;) What a sweet and calm brother and sister duo these two were. If we ever needed little brother to perk up we just had to mention the next-door neighbor's puppy and he was all ears! haha and I fell in love with little H's fancy winter coat and we had the hat and mittens just to match :) Thanks so much F family for asking me to your home to spend some time with your lovely family!

The A Family - MN Family Photographer

This lovely family made it in through some terrible icey weather for their photo shoot as well. It was pretty cold so we couldn't venture outside for TOO many outside shots like we had hoped, but we still had a lot of fun :) Little sister had QUITE the expressions haha! And dad did a GREAT job wrangling the girls solo as we got started a little early while mom was coming in from work. I also loved their outfits- great job mom! ;)

Miss G- MN Baby & Family Photographer

Can we say cutie!?!?! Oh my goodness this little girl stole my heart! She is so adorable!!! She was a little grumpy to start out, but by the end daddy had her giggling PRETTY good! If we only had a camera pointed at US during the session ;) They had lots of fun Christmas ideas for photos for Christmas cards, but when they pulled out the little cowgirl outfit I KNEW that was going to be so perfect! They are dying for this girl to become a little cowgirl and these pics will be a good kicking off point ;) We are already talking about doing photos again in the summer next year out at their beautiful homestead and I cannot wait to work with this beautiful family again! Thanks Z Family!!

Cousins- MN Baby Photographer

I was asked to photograph these two cousins as they were home together over Thanksgiving and boy did they give me a run for my money! ;) This age range is my most challenging.....then times two haha- to catch them both looking, "sitting up" (neither super steady), and happy was the difficult trifecta, but we still got some fun shots of the girls together I think everyone will treasure.
