Rhonda's Family

Well, I am back from Thanksgiving in California. It was such a fun trip and the kids were so good. While there of I of course did a few little glamour shots of my siblings and their kids which I will hopefully post soon but for now I just finished Ronda's family. She has such a sweet one year old! We had a nice morning at the Como Park Conservatory and got some great close up shots! Here are a few of my favorites!

My Kids!

This past weekend I was extremely busy trying to get my last few scheduled photo shoots in before the weather turned really nasty plus squeezing in time to work my other job, preparing for my sister in laws wedding this Saturday and taking my girls to the opening of the new American Girl Bistro at the Mall of America! What a weekend! I did find time to do a little shoot of just my kids on the RR tracks by my house. The kids loved that I was finally taking pictures of them! Here are the three that I will be enlarging to hang in my living room.

As far as photography goes I am slowing down for the season, just booking weddings for next year right now and finishing up all my editing. We leave for California in a week to spend Thanksgiving with my entire family-we can't wait!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy my last few posts!

Lucy's Newborn Session

You might remember Luke & Sarah from her maternity pictures taken earlier this fall (now on my website). Well they had a beautiful baby girl~Lucy! I spend an afternoon cuddling with her and enjoying how small babies are at only one month.
Congratulations on your new addition Luke & Sarah!

The Wockenfuss Family

Saturday it was around 36 degrees with snow flurries but we braved the weather for a few shots with Beth and her family. Little Jonathan was super shy and cold- we are going to plan another special day for just him to get his pictures done. So here are a few I was able to get before we called it a day!

The Hammer Family

Saturday I also shot a session for Jodi and her kids in the freezing weather-thankfully they came prepared with lots of warm clothes! We took some really great sibling pictures which hopefully captured their personalities!

Eric Senior Pictures

One of my last senior sessions for the season-it was sure a busy one! I had a lot of fun with Eric on this shoot. He really enjoys soccer and hunting. He was up for anything-even climbing trees!

Nolan ~ 18 Months

On Sunday I did a photo shoot for Klair and her 18 month old son. Nolan was such a great sport! It was so nice to see Klair playing around with her son during the shoot- I just had to post some of those fun ones!

The Alders Family

This past weekend I had two photo shoots. On Saturday I met Jenny and her adorable family for the first time. They have three daughters~one is 6 then they have twins who are 3 years old. Thankfully we have had warmer weather for these past couple of fall sessions!

The Cooper Family

The Coopers have EIGHT gorgeous children! We spent the afternoon at a huge park in Elk River walking around different paths finding neat picture spots. Along with many group shots I also did individuals of each- which I am looking forward to editing soon!

The Campbell Family

These are my most wonderful neighbor's! Jody is a huge reason why my business has grown so much. Our kids are best friends and it's a pleasure to take pictures for them. We did this photo shoot on two different days at our little park across the street. It was a perfect day for fall colors!

Alan Senior Pictures

Alan is my nephew's good friend so I took both of them out for an afternoon. Due to the weather we kept canceling the shoot then it would clear up so we decided to just go for it! I found a couple of new places to shoot and we had an overall nice day, just a bit cloudy.

Karl & Ashley Engagement Pictures

Congratulations Ashley & Karl on your engagement!
We started at Minnehaha Falls and ended up downtown Minneapolis we shot for hours! There are so many more to I would like to post but here are a few of my favorites!
They are tying the knot May 2, 2009 ~ See you guys then!

The Lee Family

I am a little behind in my postings, our hard drive went out last week. I have had the past few days off from my other job so today I am going to post a few of my latest photo shoots and try to get caught up.
The Lee family lives in Rogers in a breathtaking home right along a river. They built a playhouse for their daughter Madison which turned out to be a great backdrop for her pictures. Their family was so relaxed and easy to be around!

The Meissner Family

What a beautiful fall evening I had to take pictures for one of my close friends, Rachael. With four kids there was a lot of excitement, silliness and by the time we were finished grass stains on all the boys knees! They were great!

Steve & Kim's Fall Photos

What a picture perfect family! We found some great fall colors for family photos then enjoyed a private session just for the wee one. Colby was such a trooper for being only a week old!
