Five and Fabulous! | Minneapolis Children's Photography

This little sweetheart is turning 5 this week and her parents wanted some photos taken to commemorate the special day. We went to Elm Creek Park for a nice walk and some photos. Such a beautiful time of the year and such a beautiful family to work with. Enjoy the preview!

Lake Harriet Rose Gardens

When doing a photo shoot at a new location, I usually like to visit beforehand to check out the lighting, look for good backdrops, etc. Oftentimes I'll bring Megan along and she'll play and run around while I take a few test shots. Lately she's had no interest in modeling for me. Zero. ("No mommy! No pictures!") But the other night we were at the Lake Harriet Rose Gardens and there was another photographer there doing a shoot with a bride-to-be in her wedding gown. Megan was fascinated! She wanted to follow them around and have me take photos of her doing all the same poses the bride was doing. It was hilarious! Here are a few of Megan trying her best to "work it".


And here - from a couple days later - are some shots from my actual photo shoot with Lia for her senior photos!

Erynn | Plymouth MN Senior Portraits

It's been busy here lately! 4 weddings, 3 senior shoots and a family photo session in just the past 3 weeks. Before I dive into the thousands of photos I need to edit, here are a few from my session with Erynn. Erynn used to be my daughter's Sunday school teacher and is now just starting her senior year of high school. Isn't she lovely? I just love the colors in these photos and the soft morning light.

Amanda & Chris | Rush City Wedding

Amanda and Chris got married in Rush City on a beautiful, warm day. It was a lovely ceremony and such a joyful day of celebrating with their friends and family. Thank you Amanda and Chris for choosing me to document your special day. I hope you have a wonderful life together! Here are some of my favorite images:
