Cousinly love...take 2!

Remember these cuties from last year!  Oh how they have grown and changed!  It still amazes me what a year can do to these little ones...they learn so much and change so much...so fun to see!  And now that the babies are very active toddlers, it made for a very energetic shoot :)  But we managed to get some great shots...or at least we think so anyway!  Thanks for letting us capture these cousin pics for you again!  Enjoy your sneak peek!

"A" and the "L" Family

I had the chance to hang out with sweet little "A" and her mom and dad to get some updated 6-month photos as well as get some family shots in this beautiful MN landscape.  "A" was too cute with her flying pose :) Thanks for letting me capture these moments for you!

"B" family

Had a great session on Friday afternoon with this fun family.  The weather was perfect, the sun warm and shining and the kids smiled beautifully.  Mom and Dad did wonderfully too, from outfit choices and a little bribery for the kids after the session!  I love when Dad's don't think I'm crazy (or at least they don't let on that they are really thinking that).  "B" if you did think I was crazy, you hid it well, thanks!  Hope you guys like your sneak peek.  Lots of more great ones coming your way :)
Thanks!

The whole gang

What a fun group this was!  We've been photographing little "L" since her mommy was pregnant with her, so when she asked us to do a shoot with her whole family, we thought it was such a great idea!  It's rare that we get to do families when all the children are adults...they cooperate so nicely :)  And once again...we had a beautiful evening to do these!  Thanks for letting us capture these family pictures for you!  Enjoy!

Fall Mini Sessions

We could not have asked for a more perfect day for our fall mini-sessions this year.  Who would have thought it would be 80 and sunny in the middle of October!!  We had a great day with all of you and we hope you enjoy your sneak peek!  Thanks for choosing us to capture these fall moments for you!

Senior "C"

Had a great session with "C" at one of our favorite locations.  He's a great guy that will do great things in life.  I can tell just by our short hour together-I'm a good judge of character like that ;) Well at least I like to think so...  Anyway, we did some fun urban shots and he was a great sport-did whatever I asked no matter how odd.  Then we headed across to the park and got a shot on the bridge which I've just been dying to try.  The sunlight was peeking through just perfectly to get those artsy sunshiny shots!  

Thanks for a fun session "C" (and "A") & thanks for choosing us to capture these fun images for you.

i 'heart' family

I have been blessed...with a wonderful family!  So when they asked me to take some family pictures for them, it was my pleasure!  And once again, the backdrop for these was AMAZING!  Thanks for asking me to capture these for you...love you guys!

the "g" family

Remember these cuties?  Since we didn't do any family pictures last time, this perfect time of year was just asking for them to have their family pictures taken!  And with such a beautiful property, it's hard not to get some great shots!  Little miss "c" also is turning 2 this month so the focus was also on her.  And man...can she make you melt!  Thanks for asking us to come back and capture these shots for you too!  Enjoy :)

Baby "C"

Introducing....little "C".  Just a precious little man if I do say so myself.  It was so fun to have a newborn session amongst all the family sessions we've been doing lately.  I forget how fun it is to scrunch up a little one into all kinds of fun poses :)  He slept perfectly for me and I had such a good time with him. 
Enjoy your sneak peek guys!  He's beautiful!

Another day with Miss "K"

Here are some more of "K". We had a 2nd session so she could do a few more outfits and her sister could join us for a few.  Loved the beautiful fall colors for our backdrop!!
 Enjoy!

"D"

Had a fun afternoon with "D" for his senior portraits.  He's such a wonderful guy and it's been fun watching him grow up over the past few years.  I've known his family for quite a while now and let me tell you they are a pleasure to know!  Secret's is out "D" you can let you family in on the fun afternoon we had :)

the "s" crew

Well, we have just been LOVING this MN fall we are having this year and it is providing some GORGEOUS backdrops for all these family photos!  The "S" family was so great to work with...so easy-going and smiled when I asked!  What a great combo :)  Thanks for letting me capture these fun moments for you!  It was great to spend the evening with your family!  Enjoy your sneak peek!

"s" family

Well...with this beautiful MN fall weather we are having, it's hard not to get some great outdoor pictures!  I met the "S" family at a location that was absolutely gorgeous and provided so many great backdrops for their pictures!  Lots of room to run around too which was key for their little man "n" :)  Thanks "T&C" for letting me spend the morning with you and capture these moments for you!  Enjoy your sneak peek!

the "g" family

Well, for  little 2-year old "J" who wasn't so keen on getting his picture taken, I'd say we did ok!  I got to take these pictures of the "G" family on a gorgeous MN fall day at a great location!  A great combo for this photographer :)  Thanks for letting me capture these moments for you!  Enjoy!
