I've been meaning to share this set for a while now. Here's little "S", who is on my watch me grow program. This was our third session, and boy is she getting big! She had her cousins join in on a few as well, and brought their MN Wild Jerseys for fun. They were so great to work with! I can't wait to see her again in the spring!

A big congrats to this young woman who just graduated from the University of Minnesota! We went to the Walter Library on campus to document this special occasion for her. Good luck in all you do, M!

Looks like I've fallen behind again keeping up to date around here! I've been busy trying to get everyone's orders to them in time for Christmas, battling a nasty case of the flu, and taking some time to spend with family. I may just have to make a new year's resolution to post a blog AT LEAST once a week.

Here are a few from a recent session. This little guy is six months old and cute as a button!

Goodbye to the old, HELLO to the new!

Starting January 1st, I'll be moving into a new studio space, and I'm super duper excited! Up until now, I've been sharing a space in Minneapolis with a couple of other photographers who also worked on location and used the studio on a very part time basis. Well, I just signed a lease on a space in Newport, MN (just east of St Paul), and it's all mine! It's not a large studio, since I still intend on doing the majority of my work on location. But, it will be a great place to work when the weather is less than ideal, for consultations, and intimate portraits. I can't wait to get in there and decorate! I may just be doing a little casting call come January should I feel the need to test out the studio setup with models.

Anyway, here are a few from my last session at the old studio. Bye bye old studio!

Can't wait!

Oh my goodness, this little girl is just SO cute! I photographed her as a newborn and now again at 18 months. She has become an absolutely beautiful child with an adorable personality. I bet it's difficult for her parents not to be constantly giving her hugs and kisses!
