Support Families of Women with Breast Cancer

Friday, August 27th, 2010

Please consider supporting the Hope Chest for Breast Cancer by attending Alison Scott’s CD Release party. This is also the release of the Calendar of Hope, which I photographed for the second year in a row.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

My big girl – Brenna Grace – 19 months

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Brenna was just so cute today. I walked into her room and she was playing and I had to take her outside for a shoot.

It’s been a while since I posted any of her, so here are my favorites from our 10 minute shoot.

Amber & Steve – May 29, 2010

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Amber and Steve are two of our great friends. We love that we get to spend time with them and raise our kids together. Kendra, my assistant of 2+ years and Carissa, a photographer who shares my studio space, shot the wedding with me. It turned out to be a perfect day!

Lion’s Tap is a classic hang out for people who are familiar with the Eden Prairie Area. Delicious burgers.

These last two images are just stunning shots of Amber. Dispite being the personal attendant (Kendra and Carissa did a great job), I couldn’t put my camera down. I photographed the girls at the salon and the couple before getting dressed and being PA for the day. What a BLAST!

Amber’s family is just so cute. Look at little Matthew. Love this photo! Watch for this image in your mailboxes this Christmas – I think it’d make a perfect card.

As a proud Mama, I have to include at one or two pictures of my sweet baby. She even made it all the way down the isle – with a smile on her face! So, did Matthew. Rock stars.

It was a nice change, to be able to relax and just be helpful as the PA. Look how cute we are!?!

My whole fam participated in the wedding. Darrin (on the right) is my handsome hubby. JT, on the left, is from church as well.

Having children in your wedding is always a risk. You never know how they’ll act, if they’ll be in pictures, or if they will walk down the isle. But, all four kiddos did a great job. Paige was pulled down the isle – literally – by her little brother. Matthew saw me at the front of the church, holding his “lovey”, and RAN. Brenna (my peanut) RAN after him. Check out the action shots we got.

Love this wide open grin that Brenna has on her face. Even more, I love the looks of the two men behind her. They both attend church with us and have a connection with the youth group – my husband is the youth director. Everyone was so proud of the kids, especially me!

What a beautiful ceremony. I have never seen Amber and Steve happier. You two looked amazing.

I had to pick up my camera, one more time, to capture the first dance. So in love.

Amber & Steve, we love you guys and are honored that you asked all three of us to be a part of your day.

One last picture…just a fun one of my hubby and I. I am the luckiest woman in the world.
