Welcome!

Thank you for coming to my blog and website! It means a lot to me. The world of blogging has become a part of my every day life and I love it. You will see everything on my blog...some of my recent photo shoots, some of what's going on in my world and some of what's happening in other peoples lives. It is a true reflection of me well, minus the spelling mistakes.

I started blogging a couple of years ago thinking it would be a great way to give my clients instant gratification. (who doesn't want to see their pictures ASAP after a shoot?) I never expected it to get as personal as it has...life took a turn and right after I started blogging one of my friends got pregnant with Sextuplets and I walked through the pregancy, birth, loss and triumph with their family...my blog became a place to share and meet friends! I've never turned back.

Of course, when people are getting to know me my name is a big topic. It is actually pronounced "No-Amy" (and yes, I've heard every joke running through your head right now!) Here's the story: I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and my parents were trying to be nice to me by naming me a Spanish name but then changed their plans and moved back to Canada 16 months later. I've had to explain my name ever since. It's me and I wouldn't change it for anything but, I am sorry for the inconvience...it's worth it though!

I'm passionate about a lot of things but I have to say there's nothing like weddings. Have fun going through the galleries and slideshows on the blog. I hope it inspires you to call me, or pick up your camera and start shooting.

These are a few of my favorite things:

I love my husband Matt. My soulmate and perfect match. I was made for loving him.

Taking the perfect shot and showing it...seeing the person light up melts my heart every time.

I love my little girl Adriah. There's no one in the world like her. She inspires me to be kind.

I love to sing and sing loud! I'm a front row girl so i can belt it out and no one cares!

I love my little boy Leyton. I could into those eyes forever. Just thinking of him puts a smile on my face.

I love Musicals and I'm not ashamed to admit the I own quite a few!

I love the Starbucks drink "London Fog." If you haven't tried it yet...now is the time.

I love my family...there's nothing like family.

I love jeans the fit.

I love friends that are family!

I love spicy food and traveling anymore to try it!

Minneapolis Wedding Photography – Morgan and Levi, Dec. 11th 2011

Thursday, December 15, 2011

Only in Minnesota are their brides so “hardcore” that they would go outside in freezing cold weather to get great Wedding Pictures! Morgan you were so gracious even though you froze! I hope the pictures make it all worth while…it truly was my pleasure to be a part of your day.



Fluffing the dress!

Love my 50mm (1.2) lens!

Senior Portrait Photography – Minneapolis, MN

Tuesday, November 29, 2011

I think this is officially my last Senior Portrait shoot of 2011. We had this shoot on November 19th and it was our first “real” snow fall! Hannah was such a trooper! She was willing to do her dance moves (in jeans, no less) over and over while the snow pelted her face! I hope the shots we got make her smile.

As you know…I love lines. I especially love the “lines” dancers make with their extended arms and poised legs. Beautiful.


















Beautiful!

Monday, November 28, 2011

I’m extending the Black Friday Canvas Sale until 5pm today – CYBER MONDAY! Why not? right? (I’m placing the orders tonight, if you email me today we can still get your order in!)

Here’s the re-cap:
One 16 x 24 Gallery Wrapped Canvas ($225.00 retail price)
BLACK FRIDAY SALE PRICE = $150.00

OR if you want to go bigger! One 24 x 36 Gallery Wrapped Canvas ($400.00 retail price)
BLACK FRIDAY SALE PRICE = $250.00!
(These prices include professional retouching on each image.)
Yeah. It’s crazy. But, it’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday!
Fine print: You have to place your order by Monday at 5pm, pay in full when you order, and pick up the canvas.

AND…

I love it when things that already sell like hotcakes are put on sale! So, I’m going to discount the next Practical FOCUSED Photography Workshop!

This Workshop is already a steal at $99 but for Cyber Monday only and to the first 10 people

…it will be $79!

(This is the only time I will be discounting the Workshop this year)

So check your calendar and sign up here!

Hope to see you there! Here’s a shot from the last group…yes, we braved the weather! We’re Minnesotans – that’s what we do!
