St. Paul Family Photographer | Signs of Spring

How about a never-posted adorable family session from last spring to get us in the mood for this fantastic upcoming weather!?!

Minneapolis Newborn and Family Photographer | They Grow TOOOOO Fast!

In an attempt to catch this blog up a bit, I realized just how fast time flies...

The next kiddo up on my 'to do' blog list is a newborn, and I realized that he isn't newborn anymore...

In fact, I already met with him again for family photos!  So here is a little compilation of both sessions.  I adore this family.

And then we met again...

family of 10

I adore this group... this is our second family gathering for photos together.  I LOVE how fun and no-fuss it is with all of them.  You would think that with this many adults, 2 little ones and 3 dogs (with no leashes and rabbits hopping all over the property) that it would be crazy.  You would be right.  Crazy beautiful fun.   I love my job, and sessions like these are exactly why.

The location they picked was super great.  The color scheme they went with was perfect - coordinating, but not too matchy.   Best of all, they love each other, and to be with eachother.  They play and laugh and make memories - wherever.  I really loved this session.  Had I mentioned that yet?

This shot was choreographed by the little cutie looking at the dogs.  She thought it would make a great picture if everyone was hands on knees.  I couldn't agree more.

They goal of this session was to have it done before Roxy (pup in the middle) got too sick. 
Sadly, she passed just days after our session together. 
I am so happy we were able to get a bunch of great family shots with her in them. 
Her family will miss her dearly.  Rest in peace Rox.

Thanks so much guys, let's do it again!

black and white

This is my sis and these are her 'babes'...  let me say, these guys were quite well mannered (my sister included)!  Believe it or not, I think they only had 1 or 2 treats each the whole time!  I love the fact that the dogs are soooo opposite in color.  It was really visually interesting putting the white dog on the white snow, and the black dog against a dark couch and then vice versa... And of course I was all over the 'outdoor in winter' type session - my fav! 

It was fun sis!  Love ya :)
