One Year Old Divine Miss *M*

One year olds are notoriously discerning in just who they will play with- so I felt honored to be let into her circle :) After being a little cautious of me and my big ole camera- she warmed up pretty quickly. I knew I was golden when she sat in my lap. :)

This one just makes me laugh :)

4yr old Fall Fun

I met *N* and her parents at their neighborhood park. I love shooting at locations that have personal meaning for clients- it makes the session that much more fun! Miss *N* had all sorts of stories to tell me about things she loves to do.

Is there anything more fun in the fall?

Chatty, Chattier and Chattiest :)

Anyone who’s ever met my kids- knows they can talk. I mean…TALK. They are insane chatterboxes. It’s rare that I run into a family with kids as chatty as mine. Up till now the only kids I’ve met that could outchat mine- are my friend Sara’s (kids seen here) These 3 sisters were such a hoot! Endless chitchat and verbal energy that had me laughing, just because I felt so at home. Besides being able to tell me lots and lots of stories- they were also just completely sweet and fun to be around. :)

Best. Hair. EVER. Minneapolis Brothers

I don’t know who wins- *L* and his gorgeous red hair, or his little brother *R* and his amazing windswept ‘do. They are both so stinking cute they had me grinning for the whole session with their sweet, happy, joyous personalities. The day was overcast which gave us perfect lighting for enjoying this notorious Mpls park.

Sweet 1yr old Miss *P*

Okay seriously- is she not just the cutest thing?? Those bottom teeth just kill me! Miss *P* was a little unsure of the whole being photographed thing, but she warmed up to it, thanks to her parents great ideas to get her laughing!

I went to grab a few for the sneak peek but couldn’t stop- there just so many adorable ones! So they get an extra few :)

Must start with my FAVORITE!

1 plus 2

This sweet big sister was SO much fun- talk about chatty! She’d fit in well in my home with my chatterboxes. She was ready to go as soon as I arrived! So while mom and dad got her twin sisters ready- we headed outside and tried to avoid the rain/drizzle.

This twosome are really a miracle. Born over 3months early, due too much sharing (shared the same sac) they are now 6months old and doing great!

The terrific twosome together….

And……we’re done :)

Waiting for babies…

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a maternity photo session….I’m always in awe of the beauty of pregnancy. I myself, LOVED being pregnant- I’ve often said that the one downside to having triplets is that I only got to be pregnant once instead of 3 times. So now I just have to live vicariously through my friends and clients.

This adorable couple is extra lucky as they are expecting TWINS - genders to be discovered on their birthday :) I can’t wait to meet the duo in October/November!

Loring Park on a GORGEOUS Day!

I’ve never been to Loring Park in Minneapolis before, so when D’s mom chose it for our location- I was excited to scope it out. What a GREAT park!! We had the perfect weather too! I had a great evening with D- chasing him all over the park. Such a sweet boy- with an easy-going nature. I love that his mom brought along his soccer ball and his Jedi Lightsaber! It’s so fun to include things they love- esp boys at this age who can be tough to photograph :)

3 Months of Sweetness- Baby E

Little baby E is all of 3months old and just a cute patootie! Her parents say she’s a pretty serious baby- but she did crack us a few smiles :)

 

This was my first shot of the day- CRACKS ME UP!

Daddy is SO funny! :)

I think is my favorite…..

Proud parents

The whole family- doggie too!

The M & M Sisters

These two sweet little things were so much fun! Big sister is 3, and had so many things to tell me and show me. Her smile is just contagious! Little M, recently turned 1, and like all 1yr olds- had far to much to do and see than be bothered to be photographed- but I love a challenge!

Isn’t she a doll???

 

The adorable big sister who unlike her sister LOVED being photographed

I love little one’s eye lashes…

Pure sweetness!

I’ve said it before…sibling shots are the hardest! Thankfully you can always count on a walking shot to at least get them in the same frame… :)

Sweet Baby Boy

I love photographing newborns….there’s just something about that pure, sweet, “newness”- there’s nothing else like it! This little guy was a trooper!! Sweet baby *A* did SO well- he was awake for a long time, and finally dozed of for just a few minutes- long enough for me to get some sweet sleeping shots :)

 

 

 

 

His VERY attentive big brother- he did a GREAT job !

Big brother *J*- was a HOOT! SOooo much fun to photograph- he’s 3 and really loved having his picture taken- he was a blast!
