Ashley and Tony are awaiting the arrival of their first little one. It’s great to see their excitement and the love they have already for their baby… I had a blast photographing them. Congrats, guys! You’re going to make wonderful parents!
Krystal was a lot of fun to photograph. We started at her home in South St. Paul, then went exploring to find a place for outdoor shots. Along the way we came across a beautiful grassy field filled with wildflowers which was perfect. The interesting thing was that the field was surrounded on 3 sides by a freeway, a gravel pit, and a factory. I love those kinds of discoveries!
It was an extremely windy day when I photographed Jessica’s maternity session (in fact, I found out later that there was a wind advisory that day!). The wind worked so well with Jessica’s long hair and a sundress she was wearing, though, and the clouds in the sky were absolutely perfect. These guys were great fun to photograph too!
Jen came to this maternity session with a lot of fantastic ideas… and she was so much fun to photograph! Congrats, you guys! Can’t wait to photograph your little one!
Anna and Curtis are expecting their first little one… it’s so fun to see the excitement on their faces! It was a pleasure photographing them and I look forward to photographing their new little one when he’s born!
Haiti has been on my mind lately. I watch news coverage in the middle of the night while I feed little Jude. It hurts my heart to see people in such need.
The other night after a particularly long feeding, and after watching some of the coverage, I laid Jude back into his crib, crawled into bed and said a prayer for the people of Haiti. And then it struck me. Here I was, snuggling into my nice warm bed, my husband beside me. Our new baby was safe in a crib just an arm’s reach away. Our 2 and 4 year old were sleeping peacefully in the room next to us. I had just chugged a huge glass of clean, fresh water.
I started to think about how lucky I am. How small the worries in my life really are, compared to the worries that the Haitian people are facing. They are facing such heavy worries right this very minute. Not knowing where to go. Where to sleep. Where they will get their next meal. Where their families are. They estimate that there are now around 1 million orphans in Haiti. Wow.
We want to do something.
And that’s where you come in.
On February 13th and 14th, 2010 we will be holding photo sessions all day to raise money for the people of Haiti. If you would like your family, child, selves photographed at a great location (The Guthrie in Minneapolis) for a great cause (the people who have been affected by the earthquake in Haiti), give us a call!
We will be booking 45 minute sessions throughout the day, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Sessions begin at the top of each hour.
All proceeds from the session fees and print sales will go directly to World Vision International (http://www.worldvision.org/).

These guys are so excited for the birth of their new little one… and it’s really great photographing two people who love each other so much. What a lovely little family they will make when their new little guy arrives!
Congrats, Amanda and Luke! We are so happy for you!
I had so much fun photographing Laura and Dave and their upcoming addition at Harriet Island and in their home. You can tell they’re really excited to meet their new little one. Congratulations, you guys!
