Rogers, MN :: Family Session

Over the years I have met so many people including the kind and wonderful Christenson family. Ruth and I met when our girls were only 6 months old in a music class we both took together. Over the years we continued seeing each other as the kids grew up. I was able to photograph them as they grew and changed, and eventually we both moved out of the city and landed in the same suburb not many miles away from each other and within the past year ended up at the same church.

As the kids have grown, I have been blessed to see them grow up. two years ago I photographed her son as a senior and this year, her daughter. Unfortunately for us, but fortunatelly for them, their family has now landed in a southern state where their kids will be attending college.

I’m sad to see this incredible family move away, but so excited as they take on this new adventure of being Midwesterners to Southerners… I know they will do it so well, but we sure will miss them!

    Arneson Acres Family Session :: Edina, MN

    Alyssa and I have know each other since we were children. We quite literally grew up together going to all sorts of family events through our church together. Her parents were my Sunday School teachers and being that I was a little (just a little!) older than her, in college I would photograph her and her siblings as I was learning photography. I will forever be thankful for these long time relationships that, here in the Midwest, are the glue that keeps people together. (And I think, quite possibly keeps them sane in the cold winter months!)

    Watching this family grow up has been such a privilege. They welcomed their oldest to the family a few years ago and then their daughter was born. A few weeks back we celebrated her being one and before the heat came, got in a beautiful evening session at Arneson Acres Park in Edina, one of my favorite parks for family sessions. We began the session near the beautiful blooms and ended at the fountain, playing in the water and splashing about. Alyssa and TJ, it’s a joy to keep seeing you!!

      Monticello:: Family session

      Oh summer! You are here in all your glory with beautiful evenings and the hot weather! If you have followed me for any time, you know how much I love the heat and get super excited for it. I honestly don’t even mind humidity! I have been told numerous times that I probably live in the wrong state.

      If you are anything like me and don’t want to freeze your fingers off in the winter months or deal with unexpected fall weather, summer can be the perfect time to get a family session on the calendar.

      I loved seeing he Sachs family again and documenting the sweet changes in their kiddos. As hot as it was this day (like we were all sweating) it was perfect to get beautiful golden light, happy kids and squeeze in a session after work! I can’t wait to see more of you this summer, even if we do sweat together!

        Millennium Gardens:: Family Session

        Oh how I love this family. They have been with us through thick and think and continue to support us through the years. We have watched them have babies and watched their babies grow up. Joshh and Renee are some of the kindest people and their kids always make me laugh.

        We chose to head to Millennium Gardens in Plymouth for their session. The gardens were blooming, and the soft summer night light was absolutely perfect to catch that golden glow I love so much. It’s been a few years since I’ve done this family’s photos, and Renee always chooses the cutest outfits. I love her dresses and she can always pull them off with such ease and comfort.

        I can’t wait to meet their extended family in August when we will do a full session with her sisters and all the cousins! I know I will be laughing and having so much fun with all of them when that time comes!

          Arneson Acres:: Edina Family Session

          Spring was in full bloom at Arneson Acres Park in Edina where I hosted my first round of mini sessions for the 2022 year. The sweet Sommer family met me there with their little guy of only 6 months. Kristen was a bridesmaid in a wedding I shot a few years back and as she and her husband welcomed their first little one, I could not have been more thrilled that she remembered me and took the time to reach out to book a session.

          The grounds of Arneson Acres were in full bloom with pink and white trees, newly planted flowers in the gardens and fragrant lilacs blooming in the back of the park. I love visiting this garden throughout the year as it changes with the seasons.

          I’ll be back again in early September for another round of mini sessions, click HERE if you are wanting to see my availability! I can’t wait!
