Evan — Eagan High School 2010 Senior

I photographed Evan at a high school soccer field, the Dodge Nature Center, and an awesome, grungy underpass in downtown St. Paul. I really liked the creative ideas he brought to the table… my favorite scenario was Evan in a tux with his flute at the underpass location. Those are some of my favorites from the day!

Amanda and Luke — 5 Year Anniversary Session

We photographed Amanda and Luke at their home in Inver Grove Heights, as well as a park nearby. We were caught in a surprise rainstorm, but with the help of robes and an umbrella, we managed to make our way to the park, and have a great time. Congrats on 5 years, Amanda and Luke!

Baby Madison

I photographed Madison in the family’s home… she’s such a sweet little newborn. You can definitely tell her big sisters are happy to have her. They’re so proud!

Madi — 15 months old

I can’t believe Madi is 15 months old already! I’ve really enjoyed her sessions from when she was a newborn, all the way through her first year, and now 15 months old. We went to the Dodge Nature Center in West St. Paul, MN for this session, and it was a lot of fun! She’s definitely turning into a toddler with personality and spunk. I love it!

Jessie and Justin’s wedding

This was one of the most original, beautiful weddings we’ve ever photographed! The ceremony and reception were at Roseville Central Park… it was full of bright colors and infused with many different cultural touches. Jessie and Justin planned an amazing day and it’s easy to see how much love, kindness, and humor they have with each other.

Erin Kate and Ben’s White Light Party

Erin Kate and Ben invited us out to their beautiful home to photograph a backyard “white light” party. We did a fun mix of portraits and candids of their guests. We really enjoy photographing their parties– they’re such a mix of casual, class, and fun.

Richards family

The Richards family was getting together at Optimist Park on White Bear Lake and asked us to come out and get some family photos. It was a beautifully cloudy day (great for photos) and there was a lot of laughter and fun. Thanks guys for the great session!

Matt and Jamie/Under Spates Ave.

This was a fun portrait session photographing Matt and Jamie at their house in Wayzata. The great thing about their house is that Jamie’s great grandfather actually built it. They were looking for some cool portraits showing the space, and also to recreate an old photo taken of her grandfather’s family outside the house.

Matt is also in a band called “Under Spates Ave.” (they said the name is from their practice space, in the basement of Matt and Jamie’s house which is on Spates Ave.), so we also did a band photo session with the guys.

Andrea and Aaron engagement

Andrea and Aaron were a really fun couple to photograph, and it’s easy to see how much love they have for each other. It was great getting to know them as we drove around to some great locations in Forest Lake. Plus, the light seemed to get better with each stop. Thanks guys for such a fun engagement session!

Isabella — 1 month old

I had a great time photographing Isabella… she slept a bit, and also showed the camera her lovely eyes. Great job, Isabella!
