Gabby – Minneapolis Children’s Photographer

I’m so excited to feature this little one on the blog.  Gabby is the newest (and first) addition to Carmen and Mark’s family.  Gabby is adorable.  She was so excited to meet her parents that she decided to come 7 1/2 weeks early!!!   These photos were taken right around Gabby’s original due date.  Gabby’s mom goes to medical school with my wife Emily.   We are so happy for them and grateful to have them as our friends!!! And Carmen and Mark are happy as well (see below).  Enjoy!!

The expression below might be my favorite!  Can’t decide…

Kristie & Caleb – Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

Allow me to introduce Kristie and Caleb to the blog.  They are such a fun cute couple…just so genuine.  I really love engagement sessions as they really help me get to know my clients before the wedding day.  The setting is relaxed and we just have fun.  Well, K+C could not have picked a better day for their session.  With nice Minnesota weather dwindling, we really lucked out and enjoyed a sunny November day.  We thought it might be fun to shoot in downtown Minneapolis on Nicollet Mall.  I assumed that since it was a Saturday that downtown would be essentially a ghost town and make for some great photos.  I was very wrong as the streets were buzzing with people.  Funny sidenote…Kristie told me before the shoot that she was nervous to “hug and kiss” in front of people.  Well, I definitely helped her get over that fear as she was forced to “hug and kiss” Caleb among tons of people.  We had a great time and I’m so happy with the results!  Enjoy!!  K+C…can’t wait till January (for your wedding…not the cold;))

Lillemoe Family – Minneapolis Family Photographer

I’ve been so excited to feature this family on the blog.  After booking Amanda & Tait’s wedding, Deanna (Tait’s Sister-in-law) contacted me about doing family pictures.  This was a great opportunity because these two adorable kids seen below are going to be the flower girl and ring bearer for Amanda & Tait’s wedding.  We took these photos on the peak autumn weekend.  The leaves were unbelievable in St Paul.  It took a little bit of time for the kids to warm up to me….but they did.  Thanks so much for the fun afternoon Lillemoe family!!!  Enjoy!!!

This photo makes me happy as you can see…someone is missing her two front teeth!!
