Baby Mackenzie | Minnesota Newborn Photography

Welcome to baby Mackenzie. She was born on October 28th just a few days before her due date. She is so beautiful and it looks like she will have strawberry blonde hair. I love newborns and I couldn't stop holding her, but I had to get down to business photographing this little peach. I can't wait to see her again when I deliver the collages her parents ordered. Charlie and Sharon - You have a beautiful family!

Anthony -- 2010 Senior | Minnesota Senior Photographer

As the holiday season approaches quickly, I'm wrapping up some final senior and family sessions before diving into the holidays. Anthony is my last senior fella for this year. He is on the debate team and has a busy schedule with tournaments locally and out of state. He was telling me a little about the topics he's debated on and how it all works. The topics are quite interesting. We both laughed and joked when I shared with him that I had a kid in middle school. He said he missed that "fun" stage in his life. Now, college applications are keeping him busy and he "is" having a great senior year so far! Good Luck Anthony!

The Clausons! { Minnesota Childrens Photographer }

The long awaited photo shoot finally took place. The Clausons won a family session at last year's school auction or was it the year before? Hmm, well I'm glad we finally made it happen. It was so fun to have the chance to photograph a wonderful pair. Ms. E here in the photographs is actually one of my Brownie troop members and my daughters BFF. I know she's shy at times but I was able to get her to loosen up and be herself. She and her brother were patient with me and my silly jokes. There were moments that I couldn't get them to stop laughing -- well my jokes weren't that good and I didn't have that many to tell :-) They are just naturally happy and carefree. They were wonderful to work with which made my job easy.

Sharon - Maternity session { Minnesota Maternity Photographer }

I had the great pleasure of photographing the wife of a friend. Charlie and I worked together for a couple of years and he and his wife Sharon are expecting their first baby. Sharon was due November 10th. I say "was" because we had her maternity session on October 24th and Baby Mackenzie was born October 28th at 3:29pm. Close call, I would say! The girls are doing well and I can't wait to have Baby Mackenzie's first baby shoot.

Joy and Dan Finally Married! {Minneapolis Wedding Photographer}

If I heard correctly, it's after 11 years of dating that Dan and Joy finally tie the knot. It was a beautiful wedding day. Joy was a beautiful bride and you could tell by the way these two looked at each other that they are definitely soulmates. After the ceremony it was time for some pig from Devine Swine and fun, fun yard games! Congratulations again guys! Enjoy the preview here!

Baby Kai { Minnesota Newborn Photographer }

I'm finally getting a chance to catch up on blogging. It was a pleasure taking pictures of baby Kai. He was born in August and is so alert now. He was such a joy to photograph. Baby Kai is so mellow and didn't mind my cold hands at first, but after a while Dad gave me a hand warmer. Thanks Nate!

Zachary -- Senior 2010 { Minneapolis Portrait Photographer }

I had a great senior shoot with a really cool senior last weekend. I had to "untype" the word kid because he is no longer the "kid" I knew years ago. Zach is my neighbor and is quite a few years ahead of my "kids", but I remember the days when he was only 11 years old or so. I had not seen him in so long that I was very surprised to see how much he had grown and changed. He has a super personality and it was so much fun photographing him.
