Gone until Sunday.

I’ll be gone from tomorrow until Sunday at my parent’s house in Grand Rapids, MN. I won’t be checking email so thank you for your patience with me until after Thanksgiving. I hope you and your families have a great holiday together!! Most of my family is coming home…we are very much looking forward to [...]

Sullivan

Two-year-old Sullivan (don’t you just love his name!) was a beautiful little boy I had a session with who loved dinosaurs, books, dancing to the ‘hokey pokey’, footballs, basketballs, and soccer balls. He was a boy through and through and gave me a lot of smiles while we were ‘playing’ with my camera. Enjoy!

The DeGroot Family

This is the second time I have had the pleasure of shooting the DeGroot family. They have little Trenton and little Ethan. They are incredibly sweet boys – and this family sure has a good time together. Even though it was freezing outside in the park, we still had a fun afternoon. We just had [...]

Crazy Cat Designs

I love when others that I know start up their own business – I posted a little while ago about Kenna’s Cupcake Company and now I have another one to share! A friend I went to college with at St. Olaf has recently started her own glass and mosaic art company. I took about an [...]

Thankful time of year…

I love this time of year because from now until January we are surrounded my family, friends, Christmas music, snow, delicious food and wonderful reminders of what this season is truly all about. This year I want to be very intentional about letting others know how thankful I am for them. Here is the start [...]

Little Christopher!

Meet Christopher…a 3-month-old beautiful little boy! We had a fun afternoon together and he was such a trooper! We put him in about 4 different outfits and he was smiling and content pretty much the entire time. His mom is from my hometown of Grand Rapids, MN so it was fun to make old connections! [...]

Logan’s First Day of Daycare!

Many of you have asked about Logan’s first day at daycare yesterday…and how I did with it all I cried when I was singing to him in the crib (that is how I wake him up in the morning) I cried when I helped him in the car seat, I cried on the [...]

Logan’s First Friend

Soren Bishop Benson. Logan’s very first friend. Soren was born about a month before Logan and they met when Logan was not even 2 weeks old. We were over there on Sunday with AJ, Micah, and Annalis (their daughter who just turned 3). We love so many things about the Bensons…one of them is how [...]

The Hart Family

This is the 2nd time I’ve had the pleasure of shooting the Hart family with their adorable son, Evan. He apparently started walking all on his own the weekend after this session – such a fun little boy! It was a beautiful Fall day, and I just love this family so we had a great afternoon [...]

Waking up to snow.

This morning I was unusually happy about waking up to snow! I was so excited for Logan! I kept saying, “Logan! Your first snowfall!” and we immediately went outside to play in it. I’m not a huge winter fan. I mean, I love snow and think it is absolutely beautiful…but maybe not so much in [...]
