This lil man was only a few weeks old when I saw him last, but what a sweet honey he has become. He was showing off his dimples and extra long eyelashes and hamming up the camera. His little summer suit had his mom and I dying at his sweetness. Roman you are a heartbreaker!! 
Meeting this sweet family at Lyndale Park was a joy. Two littles and two bigs making their family complete. Mary contacted me about wanting to get updated photos of the six of them together and Lyndale park and the Lake Harriet Rose Gardens was a perfect mesh of urban and nature. Perusing the bounds I got to know this sweet family and made fast friend sixth their 3 year old who, by the end of the session, was tickling me and then running to hide! It was a joy to photograph you all and look forward to more session in the future!
Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. These two were perfect. Coming out to dance around, read books, show off the spunk and celebrate being four was what this session was all about. It ranged from beautiful sunlight photos to reading on the grass and then to dress up photos to show off the style of this sweet four year old honey!
My heart bursts with joy and I literally have to hold back tears every time I photograph my sweet friend Lauren and her children because at one pint in her life, doctors told her that she would never be able to have children. She is living proof that God is bigger than doctors and all other odds because now she has 4!! sweet babies including this sweet little girl. It is always a blessing to do photos of these kinds of stories attached because they are real. I hope if you are reading this and discouraged at any point in your life that you would look at my sweet friend and see how God can work in incredible ways and bless us beyond our wildest dreams!

Karen,
These pictures are SO beautiful. And your words about how good God has been to Lauren were so beautiful, too. The best!!
Thanks Annie!
Ashley and Jeff were some of the first clients I had when starting my business! It’s hard to believe we have all grown up and now that they have two sweet kiddos, it was a joy to be ably to photograph them in the quaint and quiet Arneson Acres park in Edina. We roamed the grounds smelling flowers, catching up and talking about how fast time flies! It is a JOY to see former wedding clients turned Family clients and Jeff and Ashley were no exception!
I will say it once and I will resound it from the tops of mountains that I LOVE seeing past brides and grooms, not only in their couples sessions, but when sweet little ones are added to their family. I had the opportunity to see Lindsay and John when their sweet lil girl was born and yet again when they brought their newest lil man into the family! We hit up the Lake Harriet area, one of their favorite city locations, for some family photos. 
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!
