Oh, boy(s)!

December 3, 2008 – 7:10 pm

When Katina called to book a session for her family she explained that they had two busy boys and wasn’t sure how well they would sit for pictures.  I had to chuckle because “busy boys” is the exact phrase I use to describe my two boys.  We approached the session with high hopes, but as moms of boys we were both willing to take what we could get.  Luckily, neither of the boys seemed one bit bothered with the prospect of having their pictures taken.  In fact, one of them (hint: the taller of the two) couldn’t seem to get enough…what a ham!

Tradition…

November 26, 2008 – 10:19 am

Around this time every year my calendar is filled with quite a few family sessions.  So many of the sessions are with clients whom I have worked with in previous years and our Fall sessions have turned into somewhat of a family tradition.  I have worked with this particular family on several occassions and in the proccess I have established quite a friendship with the oldest boy.  I love that he remembers me and is always so eager to share the latest happenings.  As you can see from the last picture in this post I’m still working on his little brother.  I think he’ll come around though.  Ha!

“Big brother…”

November 5, 2008 – 12:29 pm

I was in Minneapolis to photograph a beautiful baby girl who was recently welcomed home by her loving family.  When I arrived she was still sleeping so I took that opportunity to spend time with her big brother.  He and I had quite the time together…even in the pouring rain and I have to tell you that my heart melted when he offered to share his umbrella with me.  His little sister was just as sweet and I still can’t get over how bright-eyed and giggly she was through the entire session.

Vintage…

November 4, 2008 – 1:44 pm

In one of my recent blog posts I mentioned some of the interesting stories behind the clothes seniors bring with them to their session.  Addie, a senior at Minnehaha Academy, had a great collection of vintage goodies; a t-shirt, purse, and best of all…her mom’s prom dress!  How fun is that?!

Josh + Sara…

October 30, 2008 – 9:31 pm

Josh and Sara wanted their wedding weekend to be meaningful and something their friends and family would remember for a lifetime and that it was.   I met up with the happy couple just after they exchanged vows to document them on this very important day.  The ceremony location was breathtaking…a perfect spot to spend some quiet time together before venturing off to the dinner celebration.  

 Josh and Sara-  Thank you again for inviting me to capture such a significant event in your lives.  I wish you both the very best!

Up North…

September 24, 2008 – 9:45 pm

 A few months ago I received a call from a client whom I’ve worked with several times before, asking if I would consider traveling to her when they welcomed baby number 4 into their family.  I was delighted to have the opportunity not only to photograph sweet baby Brady, but also to travel up north with my family.  We left a few days prior to the session and spent time hiking in Gooseberry Falls, riding a train through the northwoods, and learning how to skip rocks (”it’s all in the stone” according to my 5 year-old son).  I love that my “work” allows me opportunities such as this…gotta’ love it!

Welcome Brady!

His loving siblings:

Your brothers and sister have taught you well I see:

A little behind-the-scenes action…I couldn’t resist:

I also had the privilege of working with my client’s sister-in-law whose waterfront property was absolutely gorgeous (as were the kiddos)!

Thanks again you guys!!

Howdy…

August 27, 2008 – 3:07 pm

Ahhhh…boyhood!  Tattered cowboy boots, wranglers, the big ol’ belt buckles and hats.  You’ve gotta’ love it, right?!  The taller of the two cowboys even tipped his hat to me when it was time to go…what a little gentleman.

Molly + Nathan: Engaged

July 17, 2008 – 9:25 pm

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to photograph Molly and Nathan in Sioux City, IA.  It’s always so exciting traveling to new locations as I never quite know what I’ll have to work with.  I found myself slightly overwhelmed with possibilities in this photographers paradise…luckily they were both troopers and made no bones about it as we roamed from one end of town to the next.  We wrapped things up downtown and headed out to the country where Molly’s family owns property as I just had to go take a look at the ratty old truck she was telling me about. Oh, the fun we had…nevermind the two horses nibbling on my hair while taking the last few shots.  Ha!  Thanks again Molly and Nathan and I’m looking forward to the wedding!

Content…

July 2, 2008 – 4:17 pm

I can think of no better word to describe this little boy than content.  When I arrived for his session he was sound asleep which gave me an opportunity to visit with his mom and hear the story of baby “N”.  At one point in the conversation she pulled out some old family photos explaining that she had been looking through them to see if there was any resemblence to anyone from past generations.  I found the photos so intriguing and was inspired to re-create the vintage look of her treasured heirlooms on one of the shots from her session (see image 5).  Also, see if you can spot a little something poking through his bottom gum in image #1.  My guess is that it won’t be long and baby “N” will have a new tooth!

Ruffles and frills…

June 22, 2008 – 8:26 am

Frilly dresses and lace socks…it doesn’t get much more “girl” than that.  Little Miss “A” has a closet filled with the most beautiful clothes.  It’s always such a treat helping her mom decide what to dress her in for our sessions.  I had to laugh though because we picked out the frilliest, prettiest dress in the bunch and what does she do (see image 1)?  Classic!
