Minneapolis Family Photographer | Cousins

I really liked the colors they went with - bright but to each their own, I think it looks super great!

Not to mention they are all adorable...

LOVE this.

Thanks guys!

Forest Lake Kid Photographer | Every year at this time...

Every year at this time, I get the pleasure of braving the elements with this 6 year old charmer... we have got some memories!  This time was no exception... the place we planned to have our session was unexpectedly surrounded by barbed wire - how dare they!?!  So we switched out our plans to a blustery field and an old school bus shelter we found on the side of the road.  Love this kiddo.

Chaska Family Photographer | Family of 15

This wonderful family is from all over the US, gathering here together for a week.  They did darn good considering many of them are used to much warmer temps and it was COLD out this day...  Thanks so much you guys!

Minneapolis Family Photographer | Snowball Fight!

Can you guess which image below was captured during the middle of a down and dirty snowball fight?!? 

So much fun with these adorable littles (and mom and dad),  thanks guys!

North Branch Family Photographer | 3 little men

Beautiful morning in the woods with these adorable little men! 

the boy with eyes made of gold

What a nice and very handsome young man I had the pleasure of meeting!   

We had some laughs because his eyes were shut in about 4 out of 5 shots.  They are this incredible golden color that changes to greens and browns, but I think the gold in them reflected the light (which was rather bright) and made it incredibly hard for him to keep his eyes open.  But he tried SO HARD... so hard they watered.  He was really a trooper!  I promised him I would title a blog post about his golden eyes... Here's to you buddy!

And it was so awesome to be outside!  I think we determined it was 34 or 35 degrees while we were out for our session, but it felt great!

Thanks so much for meeting me out guys!

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 :)
