When I first met Liliana, I was smitten. This little girl is just beautiful! In the middle of winter, I met her and her parents at the Guthrie to do some 3 month photos, and she continues to get more beautiful! I can’t wait to see how she has grown next week when I, already!!?!, get to photograph her at 6 months!
Back in 2011 I had the honor of photographing Carrie and her hubbie Michael, as well as seeing an old friend (her brother) Jason. This past winter, Jason was back to Minneapolis from Alaska visiting family with his sweet daughter and Carrie just had her first little girl. Their mother contacted me to do a family session of all of them together and this was the outcome! Sweet cousins!
Happy Spring!! In less than a month flowers will be blooming, the grass will be green, and we will have long forgotten winter’s blustery days!
I always look forward to these Short and Sweet sessions! After doing it for a number of years, it is always great to see past clients again and see how their families are changing and growing. This year I have added a session at Elm Creek Park and am bringing along vintage props! If this session is something you are interested in or need more info on, please let me know and I will happy to let you in on this fun session!
These sessions go fast, so let me know as soon as you can to book your day and time!! Looking forward to seeing you and your family!
would love the details and times available for elm creek.
Hello:
We got your name via my sister, Lindsey (Van Arman) Straub and Lindsay Halvorson. Would love to book one of your mini sesions for Sunday, May 19th at Elm Creek. I have 3 boys – age 5, age 4 and 6 months (in May). This would be a good chance for us to try and get a few shots of the boys together and the baby to mark the 6 month mark. He may be sitting up by then – or pretty close with a little prop behind him. Let us know what times are still available for that date and where we need to send payment to secure a timeslot.
Thanks,
Lisa Tanious
Tiny hands, tiny feet. Beautiful smiles, sweet puppy. Wonderful family.
How can you not just love a nine month old and their expressions! This little one and her family had plenty of them for me!
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!
