Cutie Patootie 1yr Old

Sweet Miss K greeted me with HUGE smiles from the minute she got out of the car, and I just knew she was going to be easy-peasy to photograph. Her whole face lights up when she smiles, as does her parents :)

Fall Fun- Family Style

Fall is such a popular time of year for outdoor portraits, especially family sessions. When the weather cooperates, it’s such a magical time of year to capture. I think we can all agree this year’s “Fall” has been waaaaay too short and dreary!! The *L* family lucked out on one of the few gorgeous days this month- and I had so much fun exploring spots at the Arboretum I’d yet to discover! Their 3 children were so much fun, so genuinely joyful and sweet….a true pleasure.

The giggling trio of siblings…..and one of my personal favorites :)

The kids grandparents joined us for part of the session, and are celebrating their 40th Wedding Anniversary this year! I was so happy to be able to capture a few images for them of this awesome milestone :)

Final Mini-Session Sneak Peeks!

Thanks to everyone for making my 1st year of holiday mini-sessions a big success. They went so smoothly and I will definitely be adding them to my “to-do” list for next fall as well. The MN Landscape Arboretum worked out really well for the sessions, I’m so glad I decided to get the permit this year, it provided such amazing locations and scenery!

Cold Weather Get-Away: Como Conservatory

You’d never guess it was a chilly rainy day! The *A* family met me at the Como Conservatory for a fun session! I have a photographers membership/pass for the Conservatory which is a GREAT place for a quick indoor session where you can pretend it’s 75degrees and tropical!

Newborn Baby Girl

SO sweet and so loved- one of my favorite things about photographing newborns is watching their parents so newly, and completely in love with their new little bundle of joy. There’s something so amazing especially in the early weeks as everyone is adjusting to their new lives… Miss N not only has two parents who adore her, but also a 4-legged-friend who enjoyed supervising me to make sure I was doing acceptable work :)

My personal fave:

6months of Cuteness

Mr. C is adorable as can be with his light blond hair and bright blue eyes. It was a brisk fall day, but he was a great trooper!
