Jake, Haley and Everly meet me at one of my favorite parks in Shakopee for fun, fall, family photos! Everly is such a little sweetie and Jake and Haley were so fun. I have so many favorites from the session, it was hard to just pick a couple. Enjoy!!
Lev's 6 Month Session
The Essington family met me at Lake of the Isles for Lev's 6 month photos. This adorable little guy surprised us all when he sat up on his own for a couple photos! He is just the happiest baby and such a delight to photograph...just look at that smile!!
Cartwright Family
I can't believe Zoey is 9 months old already! It's been so awesome watching this little one grow into a beautiful, happy, active little girl. I just love her and her parents.
(And by the way, how cool are these outfits that Dina's friend brought back for them from Kenya?! I just love the pop of color in every single photo.)
Ava Grace's Newborn Session
Sweet, tiny little Ava's in-home newborn session was just perfect. At just seven days old, this little girl was so content to just be held. I loved being welcomed into Keith and Angie's home to capture these tender moments.
Kuhns Family
The Kuhns family came up from Waseca for our beautiful Sunday morning session at one of my favorite little spots in the city. I had so much fun getting to know this awesome family!
Zoey's 3 Month Session
I was super-duper excited for this 3 month lifestyle session. Zoey's dad (who she clearly adores) is my cousin Joe. Our families have always been close, so Zoey feels more like a niece to me than a second cousin. She is the sweetest little love bug and I had so much fun snuggling her before, during and after her session. I'm so happy for Joe and Dina and can't wait to watch this little beauty grow up.
Lang Family
The Lang Family invited me into their home to capture some lifestyle photos in celebration of Rosie turning one and Juliet turning four. Lifestyle or "day in the life of" photos are some of my favorites. Everyone seems more relaxed and at ease in their own home and it makes my job so fun! I just love the simplicity and beautiful natural light in these photos...and how adorable are these two little girls?!
Doble Family
This family was so, so great and the absolute perfect way for me to finish out 2015. The Doble's are the most fun, loving and goofy family! I had such a blast with these guys and love that they ended the session with a snowball fight...I'm pretty sure dad won. =)
Mary Beth and Ron
Mary Beth and Ron invited me into their home to get a few family photos. Ron is in a band and showed me his instruments - we even played a little "Tiger by the Tail". It was really great getting to know both of them and seeing the love these siblings share.
Eleanor's Newborn Session
Eleanor Rose is just a precious little peanut. She was such a content baby the whole time I was there. As my first newborn session I didn't know quite what to expect, but 8 day old Eleanor made my job a breeze. I love these laid back lifestyle images of Eleanor and her family at home.
The Dvorak Family
I met the Dvorak Family out at Ney Nature Center, one of my favorite places for photos....fall colors, a Minnesota River overlook, and big red barn...LOVE. Anyways, the kids lead the way full of giggles and smiles. I just love when everyone has a great time. ENJOY!
Carlson Kids Session
I had so much fun with Jack and Ainslie at Arneson Acres Park! These two were so sweet and adorable, I loved every second of this shoot. Plus, I haven't seen the Carlson family since Jack was 3 so it was really great to catch up and meet little Ainslie as well.
