Wishing everybody the best this holiday season! Thank you to all my wonderful clients. I appreciate your business and friendship and so enjoy watching your little ones grow up. Had a lot of fun with fur babies this year, too.

Only had two families out to the tree farm this year - and it was frigid. I think the high was 10 degrees - but you couldn't tell by the warmth expressed in the photographs. Wanted to share some of my favorites from the tree farm as we head into this festive time of year.

Happy New Year to you all!

It's that time of year again - time for Tree Farm Mini-sessions at Hansen Tree Farm in Ramsey - located just 30 miles from the Twin Cities! One day only - Sunday, Dec. 7th!

I’ve been offering these fun mini-sessions for years now and I’m always amazed by how festive the photographs turn out. It’s a fun experience for the whole family and the images make great holiday cards and gifts.

Hansen Tree Farm is a family run operation that has been growing trees since 1952. Following your session, you’re welcome to stick around to cut your own tree, enjoy a hayride, buy a wreath or warm up by a toasty fire with a snack and warm drink. The gift shop is open and offering Christmas sausages and warm beverages.

Available session times -

Noon to 12:20
12:30 to 12:50
1:00 to 1:20
1:30 to 1:50
2:00 to 2:20
2:30 to 2:50

I am finally getting around to sharing some of my favorites pics from fall photo sessions!
A lot of doggos came out this year, which is always so much fun. Every family was a return this year and I have just loved getting to know you all and watch your littles become not so little.
Thank you for trusting me with capturing these moments ❤ ❤

I'm seriously in love with Lenny the Bernese Mountain Dog ❤
As you can tell, his humans love him very much and he's an important part of the family.

Fur babies are always welcome for family sessions!

Can't wait to edit more from this past weekend's sessions and looking forward to the upcoming weekend, as the colors are really looking great.

Had a busy weekend, with three photo sessions! Just wanted to share a couple from a fun hybrid session, where we did senior photos for Tomas along with some general family pics around the Stone Arch Bridge and Saint Anthony Main area. It was so fun to explore the mill ruins and not kill myself falling into the abyss! Sure footed I am not! Looking forward to editing the rest of this session along with two more family sessions!

There's still plenty of room for my fall mini-sessions, Sat. Oct. 18th and Sun. Oct. 19th. See the pinned post for more information or drop me an email - [email protected]

A month or so ago I was contacted by this outfit Voyage Minnesota for a profile opportunity. I was skeptical, as most of these "interview" emails are just advertising in disguise. But they didn't require any kind of payment, and I figured it wouldn't hurt - so I answered a series of questions and gave them some free content for their website.

Shortly thereafter, I started receiving emails about ordering nice framed plaques of my "article" for a set fee, of course. I guess this must be their business model.

But I thought I'd share my little profile, so if you'd like to know more about how I ended up entering the world of photography, check it out!
