Favorite Family | Minneapolis Family Photographer

For the third year in a row I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family.  This year we headed back to the park where it all started.  I’ve learned that this place has become special to them, which makes me so happy!

The H family is wonderfully photogenic, I’m going to let the images speak for themselves.

 

And the best part of this family…they know how to keep it real.  After we’d finished up with portraits, the kids wanted to catch frogs.  Mom and Dad were in on the fun, clothing got dirty and no one minded a bit.  I love families who laugh and have fun.

 

Thank you H family for a fun-filled morning!  Until next year…

Sons | Minneapolis Baby Photographer

Every baby is a blessing.

Twins are a double blessing.

And these two are an extra special, double blessing!

I was able to sneak in a session for 3 month olds T and M.  Their family was so wonderful to work with.  Love abounds in their home!!

LOVE 3 month old smiles!!  M did not disappoint!

I am totally smitten by babies sucking their thumbs.  I don’t think there are many things sweeter.

Mom described T as “very chill.”  And he was, happy and content little guy!!

Proud big brother A had to bring out his favorite animals and tell me all about them.  I couldn’t resist taking this, my own girls always ask for photos of their animals!

F family it was such a complete pleasure to work with you and meet your beautiful boys!

Family love…

Met up with this lovely family at a newly discovered gem of a park in what might have been the only nice Saturday in all of October!!

Excellent way to coordinate clothing but not match!!

I love a family that likes to have fun!!

 

My favorite from the day.

 

I hope mom and dad are prepared for age 16!  This beautiful at 7, wow!!

 

And last but not least, the twins!  Someday I hope to capture such a moment between my two…that doesn’t end in headbutts, tears or other such drama.

 

Thanks H family for spending the morning with me!!

Waiting for baby girl…

My first ever maternity session.  Enjoyed every moment of it!  Pregnancy is such a beautiful, special time in a couple’s life, so happy B and S asked me to document it for them.  They are awaiting the arrival of a baby girl in November.

Baby belly!

Are these two not the cutest couple ever?  Completely gaga over each other.  I even asked them how long they’d been married, I would have sworn they were newlyweds.

Radiant mom to be.  She’s just beautiful!!

Thank you both for welcoming me into your home to document your pregnancy.  Can’t wait to meet your precious baby girl!!

Family Fun

On a very cold August day, I meet up with a great family at a nearby park!  I had thought we might splash in the water a bit, but with 50 degree temps, that idea was quickly forgotten.

These two brothers kept me on my toes with their antics!

Just the sweetest family!

One of my favorite parts about this job…capturing moments like this!

The oldest.

The youngest.

Thanks W family for a great afternoon!

Lots of love in this house

L’s Grandma contacted me way back in February about doing a session for him.  It was so nice to finally meet her and her family.  The house was full of love for this little boy…mom and dad, grandparents and an aunt.

I don’t know what is more adorable about this little guy…his eyes, cheeks, or wispy little hair!

They do not come any more adorable than this.

With his proud papa!

I don’t know who is enjoying this game more?

Just one more.

I know I’m a couple days late with this, but happy birthday L!!  And thank you K family for sharing your precious boy with me for a few hours.

Family

One of the things that I love most about being a photographer is sharing my ability with those I love, my friends and family.  My step-brother and family asked for a beach session during a recent visit to Milwaukee.  I’d never shot one before, but was all for it.  LOVED it!  So beautiful and serene.

My little man C!  Love photographing him, capturing his spunk and energy.  And he has the BEST HAIR EVER!!

His little sister was totally hamming it up for the camera too!

I love shots of feet, LOVE them!  I try to incorporate a family feet shot into every session. Notice how everyone’s feet are crossed the same way?  That’s not posed, it’s just family!!

Is this not just the sweetest thing?  I love C peeking over his mama’s head!!

Beautiful family.

Thank you Tom and Jenn for sharing your family with me!  I had so much fun at the beach.  Every image I edited brought a smile to my face!

Newborn Baby R

Ah, what a sweet, sweet little boy he is!   At two weeks he was a tad bit older than my typical newborn, but such a great little boy.  

Lookit those lashes!!!

Mommy likes toes, mommy gets toes. 

And big brother E…

Full of energy, almost 3, listens to the BEST music and rides a wickedly cool motorcycle…

He is going to be a fantastic big brother. 

N family, it was a pleasure to meet you!
