sneak peek…

Isn’t this little 2 year old adorable? He was such fun to photograph, and so absolutely adored by his parents. Beautiful family on a beautiful fall Minnesota day…what could be better? :)
Here are a few for you to peek at until I have your gallery up next week. As a reminder, I will be out of town Th-Su and will be delivering orders and finishing up galleries all next week. Thanks everyone!

What a difference two years makes…

I last saw this absolutely adorable and charming boy when he was just about 7 months old:

Now he is two, and even more adorable, if that is possible.

This little guy is incredibly smart, energetic and sweet. And, now he is a big brother too!

His little brother is just beautiful, same blue eyes too! :)

 

A few more for you to peek at, I will have your gallery finished up next week. I’ll be out of town Thursday-Sunday (MEA) so will return emails, and put up many many galleries {for those of you patiently waiting} next week. 

Thanks!

catch up on sneak peeks

Here is the first of many sneak peeks I am behind on. I’m hoping to play catch up today and tomorrow!

This was a lovely family-really enjoyed meeting you all. I’ll let you know when the gallery is ready, but in the mean time, here are a few to hold you over until then.

sneak peek of a beautiful day and family…

I photographed this charming family on one of those beautiful days right between summer and fall. They are relatives of a great family I have been photographing for several years, I’m always so grateful for referrals to friends and family, so thanks J&B!

This sweet little one year has about the nicest big brother I’ve seen…so careful and concerned about his little sister, and she in turn is just obviously crazy about him, crawling all over him, laughing, trying to stick her fingers in his mouth, and he put up with it all-what a nice guy!

I will have the rest of your gallery up soon-wonderful to meet you all!

Lovely family and very fun little guy….

Mom was a little worried about our session, wondering how her son, who “doesn’t like his photo taken” would react. I assured her it would work great, and just like I thought, Michael and I hit it off right away. He was so energetic, charming and fun, obviously just an adored boy who is so smart and friendly!

 

Really enjoyed meeting you all– I will have the rest of your gallery up as soon as possible. Thanks again!

…trying to catch up…

Its been a busy fall! Lots of sessions filled with beautiful families, adorable children and precious babies. Here are a few for a sneak peek for a family I have been blessed with photographing for several years now. The parents feel like old friends to me now, and I adore these kids, it is just so fun to see them getting so grown up! Some of my clients may recognize them from when I was featured on KARE-11 a few years back. You can search the blog to view the clip if you missed it, it was lots of fun!

I’m working on lots of other sessions, and might have one to two more sneak peeks up soon. 

thanks

Sneak peek of Amber…

Another stunningly beautiful senior-our session arrived on a very rainy day. Amber was such a good sport about it, traipsing around with me in the rain with an umbrella! It was great to meet you, here are just a few to peek at here, and will have the gallery up as soon as possible!

And one with a desaturated textured overlay… fit with the softness of the rainy day to me-

Another one of my favorite families…

Many of my blog readers and regular clients will remember these two adorable children, who are all over my past blog entries of the past 4 years as well as the website:

Its so amazing to me how much they have changed in the year since I saw them last. I was completely unprepared for the tremendous transformation of their dear little sister though… this was her about a year ago:

And this was the darling little girl who I got to see now! I really don’t think it is possible for her to be any more adorable!

Well, really–all of them are just lovely–to look at, to talk to, and definitely to photograph. I’ll quit with the gushing now, and just post a couple more. :) Great to see you again, and I will have the rest up soon!

Mary

I love repeat clients….

I love repeat clients. I start to think of them as friends really. What a neat thing it is to get to see these kids grow and change every year. Its one of my favorite parts of my job, and this family is one of my favorite families, nice parents, kind & gorgeous kids, does it get any better? :)

This is almost too many to call a sneak peek, so we can call it a mini-gallery, lol. I’ll have the rest up soon Jen!

Another sneak peek…

I had so much fun in my sessions with these three beautiful kids-I love sessions like this, where Mom just lets me do my thing, chat with the kids, find out a bit about them and capture relaxed natural shots of the kids. Such truly neat kids too…really enjoyed talking to each one of them! And I know more about Godzilla than I ever thought I would-I’m going to have to check out those movies! I’ll have the rest of your gallery up as soon as possible. Thanks!
