calvin & wesley…minneapolis children’s photography

little calvin is one of my precious baby plan babies…and, he is edible isn’t he?  i photographed these two in june when calvin was just teeny tiny and at that point his big brother was not so sure about this new little baby that had arrived in his home.  but, things are different now and he was loving everything about his baby brother.  watching them interact was very sweet.  i had so much fun last week with this adorable family.  i am SO lucky to work with the best clients!:)  thank you, mclean’s…more to come soon.

on a side note, this is one of my two new studio spaces that are available to my clients.  i love them both and it has been wonderful in our dark, gloomy winter months.  both spaces have beautiful natural light and offer a different alternative than taking photos at your home or outside!

the pearson family…

meet nicholas, bennett, grant and baby rowan…these stunning wee ones are the children of my dear friend who i have known for many, many years.  this family is beautiful inside and out…it is evident when photographing them how much love surrounds their sweet family.  it was so fun to see the uniqueness of each child…and how they interacted with their little baby sister.  clearly they adore her…she is going to be very protected by her big brothers throughout her entire life.  nate and heidi, thank you.  it was wonderful to see you all and spend time with your family!  more photos to come soon!

miss ellie…

we had the most beautiful fall day for miss ellie’s one year shoot…her big brown eyes sparkled in the sunlight and she was a perfect little model for our photo session.  i enjoyed meeting her parents who are also fellow iowans.  🙂  thank you angie and jason…it was great to meet you three.  ellie is very sweet and so so darling.  oh, and i cannot forget your other furry baby who was so well behaved during our session.

sweet hazel…

this little baby girl is irresistible.  🙂  and, oh how i love all of the perfect chunkiness of these little loves.  and, i cannot forget the feet…baby feet…yummy. i have known hazel’s mommy for a long time and it was really nice to reconnect with her and meet her beautiful family.  while looking through these photos, please notice how daddy is looking at his bride in the one photo below…so sweet.  🙂  i really love stopping these special moments in time.  more to come moore family.  enjoy looking at your beautiful hazel.

gummy smiles…nils

i heart this age…nils was the sweetest.  full of smiles and rolls.  and, his parents were just as sweet.  watching the two of them interact with their baby boy melted my heart.  i really love it when a photo speaks words and emotion to me…and, the photos below of nils and his parents do just that…you can just feel the love.  what a beautiful family…thank you so much bryan and katie.  it was such a joy to meet you three.
