Thank You

Some of you may recognize this sweet little boy. I photographed him for the March of Dimes this summer. He was on this years March of Dimes, Signature Chef's Auction poster! I had the opportunity to photograph his whole family again and let me tell you...there is something very special about this little boy. He creates an abundance of calm and love just by being in his presence.







At the end of the session, J's daddy played the guitar. It's a ritual they have almost every evening. I held back the tears as I was shooting. This family really knows how to truly be thankful and cherish every moment.

I am so very thankful for my clients, especially the children, who teach me *so* much about kindness and love. Truly, thank you.

Huge smile (you can almost hear the baby laughter), rosy cheeks and beautiful blue eyes. He's so lovable. :)

Baby at Home, Duluth, MN

I photographed this baby in her home (and a few outside, of course, more of that later). She lights up the room with those big brown eyes! See her little toes? That's her crawling away at lightning speed! I wouldn't be surprised if she is walking already (she was taking steps at the session, 9 months old!).

Another fall colors session that took place in Jay Cooke State Park after rescheduling numerous times due to weather.

It was worth the wait!

Fall colors are fading fast. I thought I should share a few more before I start taking photos of babies in the snow and kids riding their toboggans.

My Own Little Pirate

My 9 month old was sick on Halloween and missed out on the fun. I still need to take some photographs of him in his gnome costume that I made.

My 4 year old, however, had a full day of make believe!

The little girl in the previous post has a lot of cousins. This little boy is one of them. Every time I photograph this little guy, he has a new handmade sweater.

*jealous* :)




Awesome, fun, easy going family! So!Much!Fun!

Thank you!!!

Fall Colors, Duluth, MN Baby Photographer

So many of you are asking about the blog, thank you! It's not that I haven't been busy, it's just that I have been, you know, a little *too* busy with fall clients. My blog has fallen behind, but that's ok. That is a good problem to have, don't you think? It sure makes me happy!

Here is a little sneak peek from a recent session...Oh, how I love those striped tights on those cute little chubby baby legs. *sigh*



Our November/December calendar only has a couple of openings left. We are now booking into late January.

Much more coming soon...

Sneak Peek: Senior Grad Photography, Duluth, MN

It's FINALLY starting to feel like summer...it's family season, it's senior grad season, it's wedding season. Life is wild and crazy and I am way behind on blog posts! I have so much to share including Miss L's super fun senior grad session...













Thank you Miss L!

Sneak Peek: Duluth, MN Senior Grad Photography

It's Senior Grad season! ...and crunch time for fitting in a few more weeks of summer fun! It's been so much fun meeting the graduates, making their sessions unique and hearing about all of their exciting plans after high school. Miss 'K' and I had a blast and even dodged a few rain showers. They came out of nowhere (again) and caught us without umbrellas. (what's the deal with this weather anyway?!)

You know that none of my locations are a secret, right? My biggest secret is that I love nearly any location including your own backyard. In fact, I wouldn't be opposed to taking photographs in a parking ramp or near a pile of rubble or even on a farm with live animals (oh wait, I've done all of those!). HA! Matching individuals to a location that fits their personality is the most important piece of the location puzzle! Besides a few shots in canal park, the rose garden was without-a-doubt THE perfect location for Miss K!

Sneak Peek: Sisters

I recently was honored to photograph these two sweet girls who have such a cool relationship. They were full of giggles, energy and sweetness! I was able to get a nice mix of images and so many of the two girls together. They were practically inseparable!

Sneak Peek: One year old boy

I spent the morning with the L family to capture their little boy's one year milestone. Considering they are away from home and mom & dad were a bit tired, little "G" did great. We even managed to get 3 outfit changes! We had a nice morning walk with so many little things for him to discover. I bet he is napping *really* well this morning!





Don't you just love his little curls?!

Is my 6 month old really going to be this grown up in just 6 short months?! Tell me it isn't true?!
