Lovely Little Lydia | Detroit Lakes Children's Photography

Lydia Jane. Such a perfect name for this little sweetheart. My grandma's name was Lydia and when I heard that I was going to get to photograph a new baby named Lydia, I was so excited!
We had a beautiful sunny spring day for our shoot this morning and Lydia was as adorable as could be. Can you tell we were having some fun with all the cute hats and headbands? And since it was the day after Easter, I just had to get a shot of her in the bunny ears. :)

Sweet Sixteen | Minneapolis St.Paul Photographer

I was thrilled when I was asked to take photos for Caroline's sixteenth birthday. She is a SUPER cute gal with a lot of personality and she photographs beautifully.
We had one of the first warm spring days for her shoot and were really able to utilize the fabulous color, shapes, and details in this outdoor location. Caroline's outfit couldn't have been cuter and as you can see, perfectly matches those beautiful blue eyes.
Happy Sweet Sixteen Caroline. Hope you have a fabulous year!
