My Son

Finally got his grad cards done!



Not my best image, in fact it was taken tonight while we had friends over to have cake with us. But I love it, and I love him!

2011 Seniors

Congratulations to all of the seniors graduating this year! I hope to someday soon be putting up my own son's announcement picture here, however right now he's resting in his bed after having surgery on his ankle he broke this wrestling season. As soon as it's warm enough and he's up and about I hope to at least get a good head shot for his announcements!

Mark

Saturday I meet up with Mark and his mom at their home for his Senior session. It was fun shooting for a guy that has so many interests, it makes it more fun when we can add in some of those interests into the session. I couldn't wait to play with a couple for a sneak peek.
We finished the session off at Long Lake Regional Park, my most favorite park to shoot at.
Congratulations Mark on your upcoming graduation, I know we are going to see great things from you! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

Lindsey!

This one is just for you! :)
I met Lindsey when she was maybe 7? She and my oldest son were the only two kids in their primary class. She was always so nice to him and I always appreciated that, since he was the new kid at church, and a yucky boy.
Today she's adorably grown up and finishing up her last year in High School. I was so thrilled when her mom contacted me to do her portrait session, and even more thrilled when they said they could work around my crazy new schedule. Thanks for being willing to wait!
I know it's hard to wait, especially for something so important, so Lindsey I'm not making you wait much longer for a fun sneak peek, more to come in your gallery! I hope you enjoy your last year of High School!

I'd rather be photographing...

I have had to turn down several customers the last couple of weeks. That's been painful for me to do. I won't be taking any new customers until late September, other than those I already have on the books. I really wish I could keep doing photography as much as before, but as my schedule changes, so does the time I have to do the more fun things in my life, like photographing you!

I do have several friends who are in the business, so if I can't accommodate you, I can whole heartedly recommend several people that could possibly work for your needs.


But before I go I thought I would share one more favorite from the last wedding...

Rain is good luck!

Last Saturday I was privileged to be Hailey and Eric's Photographer for their wedding day. I met up with Hailey in the morning where she had her hair and make-up done at La Grande Salon and Spa on Forest Lake. Her hair was done beautifully in a 1930's sexy wave on one side and pulled back with a flower on the other side.
As I made my way from La Grande to where the ceremony was going to be held, a beautiful 10 acre farm Hailey's parents have, it began to rain and continued to rain all the way up until the bride met her groom at the end of the isle. Miraculously it stopped and the rest of the evening was wonderful!
Here's a sneak peek for the bride and groom, enjoy!

Eric and his brothers- this shot was their idea, love it!

Hailey has the cutest nephew who was a great sport through the day's activities-

One of Hailey's childhood dreams was to arrive at her wedding in a horse drawn carriage. Her uncle was able to help fulfill that dream with his beautiful carriage and Fjord horse.

Oh, and I have to mention, her hair held out beautifully through all that rain!

I hope you love your sneak peek Hailey and Eric!

I thought I'd give this one a 70's summery twist, it's also available in color, but sometimes it's fun to mix stuff up!

I heart this little girl!

I am so happy to know this kid. Ellie is an amazing little girl who also is a heart surgery surviver! She is strong and fun and has the most beautiful blue eyes that are the same shade as her mommy's. Recently she began walking while holding her parents hands, that's a BIG milestone! YAY!
I met up with her and her parents Erin and Matt for a session at Long Lake Regional Park in New Brighton. Thanks guys for the fun session! I can't wait to show you the rest of your gallery!

You might remember this from Ellie's newborn session. It's one of my all time favorites.

After the park we went back to her house for an updated version, she loves to play the keys and look at her reflection in the piano. And oh my gosh, is that ponytail ever so cute?!
