I love, love, LOVE seeing this sweet family! Jess and I have been friends for years and years, and seeing her and her sweet boys and hubby makes me so happy! We spent the morning running around the Minneapolis Rose Gardens playing in the most beautiful “snow” (flower petals) and smashing a cake to celebrate being one!
The whole family being together calls for family photos! The Moffitt family was all in town for a wedding over Memorial Day, and before the heat set in, we were able to run around the iconic Mill City area in Minneapolis. It was so nice to meet this sweet family and I hope our paths cross again in the future!
Now that Summer has officially arrived , my kids and I start itching for summer activities. Every year We sit down and put together a list of ideas to do for the summer. It’s a great way for me to pull something together without thinking of a great activity, a new activity for when they aren’t getting along, or we just need to get out of the house. These are in no particular order and sometimes do everything on the list and sometimes we just do a few things, it like d of depends on how busy our summer is! I would love to hear your ideas and things that you do during the summer as we are always looking for new ideas! ( I highlighted those in Red that have a link attached!)

Oh how I loved meeting the sweet Bloom family. From the pieces of art in their home to the teeny Sperry’s they had picked out for their daughter, I knew we would connect. It was a joy to work with them and their little peanut slept almost the entire session and gave us a few sweet smiles throughout our time together!
Katie Nick’s June wedding at Seven Vines Vineyard was the perfect blend of timeless elegance and joyful celebration. From the classic black-and-white wedding party attire to the dreamy golden hour portraits among the vines, every detail felt effortlessly sophisticated.
Surrounded by their favorite people and endless love, these two kicked off married life in the most beautiful way.

Baby Mary has arrived and is already so deeply loved by Nicole and Aaron.
I’ve had the true honor of photographing this family since their oldest was born over 16 years ago, and watching their story grow through each new season has been something really special. From newborn snuggles to busy, full family life being invited back again and again is something I never take for granted.
This family is deeply rooted in the world of forage, county fairs, and raising and showing lambs and sheep, so it only felt fitting to include a little lamb hat for baby Mary’s first photos. A small nod to a big part of their life and traditions.
Welcome to the world, sweet girl
Spring soirée perfection.
Rob and Sarah’s wedding day was a beautiful blend of faith, family, and thoughtful design. Inspired by Monet’s garden paintings, their celebration was filled with soft spring colors, meaningful heirlooms, and intentional details at every turn.
After a joyful ceremony at Eagle Brook Church, surrounded by family and friends, they celebrated the night away at Silverwood Park with beautiful florals, heartfelt speeches, lakeside portraits, and dancing.
One of my favorite details? Sarah changed into her mother’s wedding dress for the reception, while flowers made from that same gown were sewn into her veil.
Congratulations, Rob and Sarah!
