Liz and Jacob's Wedding Photography

I flew out to Baltimore a couple of weeks ago to capture a wedding in Virginia. It was a lovely 70 degrees the weekend I was there and I soaked up the sun. I loved visiting the east coast...secretly I just wanted to blast the Hamilton sound track every car ride :) We even drove past a couple of historic landmarks...I have to go back with my kids!!!

The wedding was stunning. Outdoor weddings are risky, but when they work, they are magical! This one had sun and clouds until the reception started and then in poured while we were cozy inside eating and dancing. The couple was a dream to work with and there was tons of kids in the wedding party so that is always a bonus for me.

Thank you Liz and Jacob for hosting me and asking me to capture this amazing day of memories.

Here are a few of my favorites from the wedding day...enjoy!

Senior Portrait Photography

Changing seasons. New adventures. Impact moments. All these can be found in senior portraits and I love capturing them! The little downtown area of Chaska, MN has a special place in my heart for photo shoots...it's has tons of little nooks and alleys for great portraits. Enjoy!

Johnson Family Portraits - 3 Generations together

Normally at this time of year I'm busy shooting wedding photography, but I had the incredible privilege of capturing this amazing family (3 generations together) and it made me smile. No one really "likes" to have their picture taken. It's uncomfortable and awkward, but my goal is always to lessen the chore of it and make it fun because everyone loves having the images when it done! So, I lead this sweet family through the Guthrie, Mill City and over to Izzy's for ice cream...the photoshoot became an enjoyable night spent with family :) (and me.) Thank you for choosing me to be your family photography. I can't wait for the next time we get together for family portraits! ICE CREAM AGAIN??????

Calatayud Family Portraits - Mini Sessions

It was a perfect fall day. And Minnesota Harvest is my favorite apple orchard...I feel at home there. I love that I get to meet friends/clients there and capture their precious stage of life!

The Walker Family Portraits - Bloomington, MN

Some of my clients have become friends. I can't help it. I see them every year and I get to watch their families grow and change and I get to capture sweet moments. I feel like I know them. Often the kids want me to join them for dinner after the shoot and that always makes me smile. This family holds a special place in my heart. Sometimes that happens and it's a treasure. They are very easy to love!

Nat's Senior Photos - Prior Lake, MN

The weather has been really unpredictable lately. When I schedule senior photos I do my best not to let the weather interfere, and once we start the shoot it's hard to stop! (Way too much fun!) But, then it went from spitting, kinda raining, to pouring and even then, Nat was amazing! She didn't care and totally got into the umbrella pictures. Not gonna lie, this is kinda a dream come true for photographers who love shooting in all kinds of weather :) We had fun. and I love the pictures we got from that rainy night...

rainy night!

Deneen Family Portraits, Edina, MN. (Centennial Lakes)

I love Centennial Lakes. (even more lately cause I've realized it's a PokemonGo hot spot :) This family had a reunion and celebrated with photos! I like that kind of party.

Kuskie Family Portraits - Prior Lake, MN (Lakefront Park)

Summer nights in Prior Lake have been absolutely beautiful...even better when I get to capture gorgeous family portraits. Wedding and portraits is my day job, but it's getting to know the clients I love most! Enjoy!

Suzelle and Jonathan - Wedding Photography

Remember the rain we had last weekend? Can you imagine waking up on the day of your wedding and seeing it pour outside knowing you've planned an outdoor reception? That's what happened to Suzelle and Jonathan. I had met them at our their engagement shoot and immediately fell in love with them, their story, their sweet sentiment...they are such romantics! I was so looking forward to seeing them again at their wedding. I wanted everything to perfect. I didn't want the rain to ruin anything. One of the benefits of being a wedding photographer for 14 years is that I've shot in every kind of weather and I know I can get beautiful pictures no matter what. Sometimes the bride and groom need a little convincing when the weather is at it's worst. But, Minnesota weather is unpredictable and by the evening the sun was out and the party was raging! It was perfect and I'm so thankful I had a part in their beautiful day.

Enjoy this sneak peak of their wedding photos.

The Lindsay Family Portraits - Eden Prairie, MN

I have known this family for years and they are very close to my heart. Taking their family portraits was my privilege. My family lives in 3 countries and I've lived in Minnesota for the last 16 years, so I have friends that are like family. The Lindsay's are wonderful...and they make really cute kids!

Suzelle and Jonathan's Engagement Photography - Minneapolis, MN (St. Anthony Main)

There are times I just show up for a shoot and laugh the whole time! This is one of those times. This couple is amazing...I kinda want to hang out with them. It was a wee bit chilly on the St. Anthony Main, but we persevered. And it was so worth it! The Minneapolis skyline is so beautiful from the other side of the river.

I can't wait to see these two again at their wedding! Until then, enjoy their engagement photography!

Sick Day

One of the greatest parts of being a mom is taking care of your sick kids. No one can care for my babies like I do. Today I was struck by how beautiful my baby is when she is all cozy on the couch. Even when she's not herself...she's stunning. So I did what every caring mom would do in this situation and I ran to get my camera. Sick at home...and still beautiful.

Ellie's Senior Portraits - Minneapolis, MN

I have loved these last couple of Senior Portrait session. The girls have so many unique ideas and I love trying new creative shots on them! We have so much fun!!!

Dagny and Tim's Engagement Photography (St. Paul, Minnesota)

Downtown St. Paul is one of my fav. places to shoot photo sessions. It's inspiring and I love doing photographing with a background that's inspiring. Plus, I was with the sweetest couple...that makes all things better! We were able to capture warm sunlight as the sun set on a gorgeous summer night. (Seriously, I love being a photographer) Enjoy!

Jen's Portraits - Minneapolis Senior Photography

I take every opportunity I can to go to Minneapolis for Senior Photography. I love shooting in new locations and I love learning each Senior so I capture them in their element. So fun! Thanks Jen for being to be silly and crazy with me.

Senior Portraits

I have a confession...I used to get a little nervous when doing Senior Portraits for guys. I thought I was in for an hour or two of awkward posing and weird smiles. I was so wrong. Guys totally get into photo shoots. And it's so fun to show them pics and see them want to keep going. We had fun with this Senior Portraits session. I love the serious shots.

Senior Portrait Photography (Jordan, MN)

I know I must sound like a broken record but...I LOVE THE MINNESOTA HARVEST APPLE ORCHARD!!!! And no, I don't get tired of shooting there.

And yes, I will miss it until next fall.

Until next time...enjoy this beautiful Senior Portrait Photography (Jordan, MN)

(P.S. Which image would you pick for her country album cover?)

Senior Portraits - Minneapolis, MN

It's unusual to get to capture someone who's relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera...and even more unusual to find that combo in a guy AND a senior! Thank you for making my job so easy.

Brooke's Senior Portraits - Prior Lake, MN

I love shooting Senior Portraits! And this shoot was amazing! The light, the girl and the Mom! We had so much posing, laughing, dancing, walking, and laughing some more. See for yourself!

Thank you ladies for such an enjoyable evening. I look forward to our next shoot when I get to capture the whole family!
