Mr. A {MN Child Photographer}

This little boy is deceiving--- he is one tough little cookie! These photos may not depict how truly cold and windy this session was out at grandma's place! But he just wanted more and more, he did not really want much to do with our warm up breaks we were trying to offer- he just wanted to be outside! So, the adults had to grin and bear it since Mr. A was more than game to brave the elements haha ;) Such a cutie- and LOVE that hat!! It was fun to get to play with you Mr. A! Enjoy the sneak peek! :)

Mr. & Mrs. B {ND Wedding Photographer}

One BRISK October day--- this lovely couple got married :) I want to thank them AND their wedding party right now for bearing with me for the outdoor photo portion of the day. Trust me it was worth it in the end right? ;) What a beautiful day and wedding for this couple so in love. I do love my job ;) Want to see more great shots from the day? Just head on over to the Holly D Photography Facebook page -- I especially love how they had people from the reception kiss and then the bride and groom had to repeat that same kiss-- I have some great kissing and reaction shots from the night up to share haha- priceless! Congrats Mr. & Mrs. B! Thanks for asking me to be a part of the big day--- and no-- no speeding ticket stories were shared, I learned my lesson ;)

The S Family {MN Family Photographer}

I have to say this group was one of the most efficient I've worked with- way to go team! We powered this SUPER fun session out pretty darn quickly with TONS of winner shots ;) What a fun group and I LOVED their fun fall/winter attire! So colorful and full of texture! You may recognize mom and dad from the YUMMY local favorite Cafe 116 from here in Fergus Falls. Past clients will tell you I am a regular down there for meet ups ;) I was so pleased when they asked me to do their family photos!! This session was the one I posted about the "moving location" -- they had it set that they wanted this specific train to be the backdrop of the photos and we lucked out it was still there they day of the session! Enjoy your sneak peek S family and thank you so much for your patience and support!! I'm a lifer down at the cafe you know that ;)

Beth Lee - Creative Professional Portraits

Wow--- how to put into a brief blog post about this amazing woman is kind of a tough thing.....In her own words, I will just give a few key points of what this beautiful girl is up to professionally-- "I'm a multi-faceted girl with an entrepreneurial spirit who is connecting the dots between three key components that comprise my being and making them into my career- creative spirit, compassionate spirit, and business spirit. " This girl is SO talented she has her fingers in many different pots- to name a few--- a graphic designer specializing in marketing and image branding, rehabilitating dogs in need of new homes for a local non-profit organization, and she is also in the midst of writing books and creating a YouTube channel featuring brief informational videos making business and leadership easier to understand by using her rural upbringing and extensive experience with animals to parallel corporate life and farm life.

Maybe most impressive of all of her endeavors is being one of only 1,000 people in 47 countries certified as a Founder's Circle Member of the John Maxwell Team. Maxwell is an internationally recognized leadership expert, speaker, and author. As a John Maxwell certified speaker/trainer/coach, Beth is available for workshops, seminars, coaching, keynote speaking, and aiding in personal and professional growth through these proven leadership methods. Wow, I hope I did all of that justice!! Again, what an amazing woman! I am so happy she asked me out to her farm to take these fun photos- even if it was quite cold and windy- thanks Beth!! Enjoy the sneak peek!!
