Newborn photos with dog

I’m so excited to share this sweet in-home newborn session in Saint Paul on today’s blog! This in-home newborn session with a dog was so much fun. Not only did I get to meet a wonderful, easygoing couple, but I got to capture them as first-time parents to a sweet baby girl. This morning session […]

For years, I always wanted to be a ‘reader’. But making the space and time to read wasn’t a big priority in my day. Finally, about five years ago, I set a goal to read 10 books in the year. I quickly surpassed my goal and started a small book club with some girlfriends, leading […]

These timeless in-home newborn photos are one I’ve been so excited to share. On a quiet and bright morning, I arrived at their south Minneapolis for this newborn session. I love being able to capture families in the comfort of their own home and where they feel like themselves most. Especially after welcoming a little […]

Getting to capture this outdoor family picture session was such a treat. This sweet little session is part of my First Year Collection Collective with this family of three. This was my second session with his family which took place at the beautiful Minnesota Landscape Arboretum in Chanhassen. His first session was during the cold […]

I’m beyond excited to share this Minneapolis studio three month milestone pictures. This little cutie is part of my First Year Collection Collective. This was session number two (of three within the collective) to capture her three month milestone pictures. It’s always special when the entire family can join in on the fun as they […]

These newborn family pictures were such a joy. This was my fourth session with this sweet family. It is always such an honor to be able to capture a family year after year and for big milestones. My latest session with them was for their second son’s in-home family newborn pictures. It brought back so […]

MEET Kristen

Last month, we flew out to California a little early before I attended the Rising Tide Society Leaders retreat in San Francisco. Four years ago, we drove and camped from Los Angeles to Portland and immediately feel in love with the Big Sur area. So this time we planned for two extra days of travel […]

Angela and Luke’s Minnesota winter engagement session this past weekend was chilly, but one I have been looking forward to for so long. I had the honor of meeting Angela while she was a bridesmaid at one of my friends weddings that I photographed. It was fun to catch up with Angela and Luke since […]

We couldn’t let the cold winter temps and brisk winds from keeping us outside. Kera and Dylan’s wedding at Brackett’s Crossing in Lakeville, MN was the perfect way to start off the 2017 wedding season. I had been looking forward to this winter wedding for so long. Kera and Dylan were attendants for a wedding that I photographed for Dylan’s sister. I […]

If you have been following along for a few years, I am sure you recognize the Whalen family! They have been one of my biggest supports over the years, and I really can’t thank them enough for everything they do for me personally and in business. It’s been a joy seeing them return each year […]

It was such an honor when the MAVEN team reached out to me to ask if I would consider photographing their upcoming styled shoot. Their work is incredible and I had heard so many great things about them so of course I said yes right away! This shoot was prepared as an illustration of a rehearsal […]

In November, Ryan and I traveled to St.Thomas Virgin Islands for a week to celebrate my birthday. We decided early on in our marriage, that we would rather save the money we would spend on gifts and have it go towards travel and adventures together. We love being able to look back on our travels […]

If you have been following along for the past two years, you know how much I love my friend Shasta Bell, and her beautiful calligraphy work. We have had the opportunity to work along side each other on some special projects over the year and it has been such a joy becoming good friends. Shasta […]

I have known Candi for a few years now after meeting at a local IF:Gathering. Over the years, I have heard so much about her husband and children, and finally got to meet them this Fall for a session. Candi is a photographer herself so I knew she was going to pick out some great […]

I had the privilege of meeting the Hanson family, this fall for a session. How adorable are they? I absolutely love when I get to photograph a new family and get to know them. Cecelia brought so much joy to the session and I couldn’t get enough of her and her spunky personality.

  This was the first time I’ve had the opportunity to photograph a wedding at the Cannon River Winery in Cannon Falls! Katie and Eric chose to get married at the rustic 150-year-old timber frame barn which over looks the vineyard. I had been looking forward to this wedding for over a year now and […]
