For those of you that have waited patiently....

...and for those of you who haven't been all that patient.  The wait for the sneak peeks is finally over!  That means we are that much closer to showing you your full galleries.  By 12 o'clock that day, we had taken over 1700 photos (largely due to Jen...a chronic shutter happy photographer)!! Yikes!  That's a lot of great photos that we've sorted through in the last 10 days.  

Thanks again to all the wonderful families that participated in our annual Fall Mini-Sessions. The day was perfect, the rain cooperated until the very last minute, and it was huge success in our opinion.  Just think of all of you that will have beautiful photos hanging on everyone's refrigerators this Christmas :)  We look forward to seeing what you do with your families photos!

Have you seen this post before...

I feel like I've written this post 1/2 a dozen times before. You know the one.  Where I tell you how busy we've been and make an excuse why we haven't blogged forever.  But really, we have been crazy busy getting some fabulous family photos while there were still leaves and color on the trees.  Sorry for being absent for so long and not satiating your appetite for sneak peeks.  We had an amazing day of mini-sessions last Saturday and hopefully those sneak peeks will be up soon.  We are still drowning in all the amazing images we caught that day...20+ families worth!
Here are two recent sessions.  "C" (remember him), had his big 1st birthday and it was so wonderful to see him again.  The last time I had seen him, he was just but a few days old.  And "J", stunning senior!  She rocked her session and we got some beautiful photos of her.

The "M" family

We met the "M" family for a great family session at Loring Park.  We just adore this location.  "B" was a great little model and was full of great smiles!  We had a great time with you guys, thanks for a fun morning!

Doubly cute!!

Meet this adorable set of 1 year old twins. We had a great session exploring the park with these darling little ladies!  We love seeing each of their little personalities, each very different, but equally sweet.  

Thanks for a fun day "S" family!

Tomorrow...

"C" wanted to remind you all to have a great first day back at school tomorrow!!!

Well hello there....

Thought it was about time for a long overdue blog post.  We've been so crazy busy with photoshoots, editing and other crazy busy life changes, that our blogging has fallen by the wayside.  Sorry to those of you out there dying for sneak peeks of your photos and to gaze at other's beautiful children.  Allow me to introduce "M".  What a cutie.  We photographed her on what was probably one of the hottest, most humid days of the year so far...she did amazing. And speaking of amazing...look at those blues!!

This is the 3rd time we've been lucky enough to photograph this great couple.  They are expecting their first child in the next few weeks!  So excited to meet this little one...and I know they are too.  Especially mommy, who's ready for this little breech one to be born!

Oh....I've decided that all maternity sessions should probably be done at sunset.  How gorgeous!!!

The "G" kids

This fun set of siblings belongs to the "G" family.  This photoshoot was to celebrate "C"s big 5th birthday!  Of course we had to take a few with her big brother too.  He wouldn't have allowed us to leave him out.  Good thing he didn't because we got some great shots of him.  Thanks for a fun afternoon C & N.  I had a great time :)

Sharing the spotlight.

We've been bad about blogging our sessions lately, not for lack of work...for the lack of a break from shooting.  That's the part that we really love and it is wonderful to be out there capturing some great families. This week is going to be boot-camp for our cameras!

First up...the "T,D,F" family.  Father's day weekend we had a great shoot with this "X chromosome" heavy family (there is another little lady on her way in few months to add to this sweet bunch of girls). 

 This photo of the 3 girls together was of their own doing :)  They lined up the chairs (with a little help from the dad's) for themselves and created their own photo.  Scroll down to see behind the scenes of this set up...I think it's comical :)

Next up....the "V" family and cute little 1 year old "S".  He was full of smiles for his session and boy was he a fast crawler.  Watch out once this one gets the hang of walking!  This is on of our favorite  locations and they even added some fun paper lanterns in the alley way.  Kind of felt like we were in another part of the world. 

 Seriously sweet!  Happy birthday little man :)
