18 months

It was about 25 outside on this crisp morning but Joe didn't care. I had brought my wagon and he was in love. Busy pushing and pulling, not really worried about what I was doing. I just love the casual "day in the park" feel these have, it doesn't hurt that he is absolutely adorable.

3 months old

Oh my this little man is so adorable. No words are needed for how wonderful this shoot went.. just look :)

Georges family

What an absolute pleasure it was to be invited to capture this family. Two brothers, a sister and dad all came together for the first time in 10 years. I was deeply honored to be asked to help them preserve these memories. Bill & Mina's children have been repeat customers of mine for a couple of years now and I never tire of working with them. Thanks for asking me!

Siblings

These lovely children belong to one of my good friends. Mr J is the most adorable little man, fairly quite but when he has something to tell you.. it's a riot. Miss K is growing into such a beautiful young lady, its hard to think of them being so mature. This is one of the best parts of being a photographer, haveing repeat clients and getting to watch the children grow in front of your lense.

Kara

Such a wonderful smile. This georgous young lady is the color guard and it shows. Beautiful smiles each and every minute. I LOVE it! Maybe we can all take a lesson from Kara.. its good to smile :)

Austin

Such a handsome, nice, easy going... I could go on and on. I've known Austin for a few years now and he is such a wonderful person. We had a great time doing this shoot and I am so glad he brought the snare.. it looks cool!

Laura & Alan

The rain stayed away until the end of the evening so Laura & Alan could have the day of their dreams. It was a quick ceremony with the most beautiful Lord Prayer sung by a grandma. This wedding party was ALL on time.. I must say this might be a first :)
Congratulations to a really sweet couple.




I just love how this jr bridesmaid is "spinning" full force.

Clare & Eric

This wedding was super special, because its my baby sisters. Yes sweet Clare married her love and we had a wonderful gathering of friends and family. Here is a sneak peak of just how beautiful she is.. ok Eric you looked stunning also




This is my wonderful family. My beautiful daughters were in the wedding, they look so grown up. Unfortunately I look like my typical wedding self "dressed to work". But I do love this picture, as a photographer sometimes my family is the last to get done.

Ryder

I'm in love.. again! Isn't he just beautiful- perfect everything. Ryder wins a gold star for being the first baby in my photo lifetime to "drop some pellets" after I got him naked. It was hysterical. My favorite shot from this session has to be him curled up in the basket, to me it is so precious and really captures just how tiny he is at this stage. Thank you Sara & Aaron for trusting me with your sons first photo session- hopefully I will be able to watch him grow.

Trash the dress

This is new session I am offering: Trash the Dress!

Ok, you don't have to ruin the dress just allow it to get dirty and possibly wet. This is an awesome session to do after the wedding (before drycleaning) either alone or as a couple. These pictures will be in different locations allowing us to create images you will treasure and remember doing for a lifetime. This also can work well with a prom dress, especially a group of young ladies doing it together.
Big thanks to my assistant Brittany for modeling and Kregg Fisher from ProTek Photography for donating your time to do this session.

Sisters

I have known and photographed these girls for the last 7 or so years. They are so beautiful and better than that they are FUN! I look forward to following these girls for many years and maybe if I'm lucky, I'll be around to photograph their children... wouldn't that be cool.

Oh how this one becomes more beautiful, now a fresh teenager.. many boys will have their hearts broken.

This small person has the spunkiest and lively personality- she likes things crazy and loud. To me this picture captures her spirit so well.

Kiersten

Oh this little angel is so serious! She is one of those precious babes that is always looking and studying whats going on around her. She will smile but it better be darn worth it. We managed a few smiles, but these really capture her personality.

Cortney

Cortney wanted to use the "c's" in our downtown for some of her poses and I am so glad she did..isn't it adorable. She was such a pleasure to spend time and work with.

family reunion

What an honor it was to photograph such a wonderful family. They were having such a good time, it was evident they enjoyed being together. Thank you Jean and Kylie for asking me to capture your family gathering.

Mackenzie

What a beautiful young lady! She was willing to try anything I proposed and was an absolute joy to work with.

2010 model

Miss Courtney did me the honors of being my 2010 senior model. We had a fantastic session and stayed on time (a miracle for me. Everything about this went well, I couldn't be more happy and ready to use her images in my new advertising. Thank you Courtney for giving me your time.

Ashley

I hauled all my stuff to MN just for the opportunity to photograph my beautiful niece. So Ashley and I knocked out this session on a really HOT Minnesota evening. Her Dad washed the bike quickly so we could use it..how fun is that for a senior pic. Everyone who pitched in to help set up, clean the garage, etc, thank you, it was worth it!! I am super happy with the turn out and hope she will be too. Love you miss Ashley.
