Growing up/ Minneapolis Family Photographer

Doesn't seem like that long ago I photographed little "B" when she was just a newbie! Miss B, I just love your dress and it spurred a lovely arrangement of outfits that make your family photo absolutely fabulous!

I got you Grandma!

It was a pleasure photographing the whole family! Thanks for coming out on this frosty morning!

Those smiles...Are you kidding me?? Blaine Photographer

Just look at those smiles? They must know that the we are nearing the holiday season.

All smiles from mom and dad too

I was so nice to meet you "M" family. I wanted to thank you for being so patient with rescheduling. The weather has been pretty trying for photography this fall. But I think it is worth it!

Cruising Stillwater/ Twin Cities Urban Photography

We played in the park for awhile and then hit the streets of Stillwater.

I can't help that I just love this picture... Oh, miss E, I know the feeling. I'm afraid this won't be the last time you'll feel like this!

Thanks for the adventure guys and thanks for the candy!

I've seen you somewhere before.../ Twin Cities Photography

These little kiddos have been on my website a lot. They were so willing to pose and be little hams.

Why are the kids so cute and photogenic? umm... mom and dad are also cute and photogenic:

caught you cuddling

Thanks for the fun guys, I hope you enjoy the fall colors.

BOYS! Minneapolis Family Photograher

Awwww... these two older brothers were so sweet to baby brother. Whenever mom and dad needed help, the older boys were right there. They all did such a good job.
boys, thanks for making this picture look like a Lands End catalog!!

Good times! Thank you "V" family, it was so nice to meet you!

Minneapolis family/ Minneapolis Urban Photography

I had a lovely morning photographing this cute little family in their South Minneapolis home. This was just the right time to have photos done as little "M" is 6 months old and the family wanted to capture the sights of their home and neighborhood in the fall.
Peek!
a walk around the neighborhood...
Little "M" worked so hard that day, smiling and posing for so many photos! But after I left she was on her way to an apple orchard! Thank you guys for having me out to your home and making me feel so welcome.

How Fun! Minneapolis Senior Photos

I had a lot in common with this 2010 grad. We both play the violin, we're both big scrapbookers, both Finnish, both love pink and girly things...



I've never photographed a real ballerina before!

Thank you for dodging the rain and making the session so fun and interesting for me!! You are a girl of many, many talents!

Fun Fall/Halloween Photos! [Children's Photography Minneapolis]

My idea of simple, fresh, fun for a fall/Halloween.
I think this little dude appreciated that I warmed the hardwood floor for him first for his little cheekers!

Senior Portraits Minneapolis/ Afternoon in the Leaves

The leaves here were exploding with color, just right for some fantastic senior portraits.
This is my favorite from the day... You would NEVER guess that it was a mere 42 degrees

and that this was covered with snow the day before

Miss "J," you are simply beautiful.

I hope you ladies had as much fun as I did. I'm glad we got our session in between the snowstorms!!

Minneapolis Senior Photography

Wow! This 2010 senior grad has some BEEutiful eyes! She's every bit as sweet as her portraits would suggest.

Thank you "B" family for spending the afternoon with me and my camera! You have such a great future ahead of you girl!!!

Minneapolis Family Photograhy

I have had a few requests lately for examples of family portraits so I thought I would take a look back over the past year at some fun family portraits... awww memories!

I should also note that I only have a few openings left for family photos in October and November.
