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 […]

The minute I walked into Woven and Wed’s studio, I recognized Britt’s style. She has a love for white spaces that are enhanced with touches of green and gold. Her aesthetic is so similar to my own and it makes our collaborations even smoother! This workshop showcased her style perfectly. From the treats from Amy’s […]

  Sunday’s Sundries Last weekend ended up being busier than expected and so I wasn’t able to post a new Sunday’s sundries. I’m so glad I was able to carve out some time for this week. Here’s what I did! I had the honor of photographing two hand lettering classes last week. You can read […]

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph my friend Shasta’s beginners Calligraphy Workshop, in NE Minneapolis. We have been working on some projects together this past year, but this was something different and I was excited to see her in action with all her attendees. It was fun hearing how everyone heard about […]

I have the honor of taking over the Minneapolis Tuesday’s Together Group for the Rising Tide Society. Andra and Kelly of With Grace and Gold did an amazing job leading this group and getting it started in the Minneapolis area over the last few months. They kindly asked if I would consider leading as Andra’s […]

Sunday’s Sundries Our friends had some V.I.P. passes to the Live KS95 concert this week and invited us to join. Neither of us listen to this station, but we couldn’t pass up a free night of fun. Lukas Graham and Ingrid Michelson performed and it was a great show. Ingrid was really entertaining and played […]

It has been an honor to be able to document so many memories for my friend Krista and her family. Last year, I was able to spend a warm summer evening with just her and her girls. At this time, she was pregnant, but didn’t know. It is now an even sweeter memory knowing that […]

Many of my friends and family members have children and I have been able to learn so much from them in this season of their lives. Talking to moms about motherhood is so amazing and informative. I hear so many comments about how motherhood has transformed them and shown them how to give more grace […]

I never thought my career would lead to birth photography. I have loved photographing families but have always considered births to be so intimate. I wasn’t sure if it was something I wanted to open myself up to as a photographer. My opinion changed when my friend Krista asked if I would consider photographing the […]
