Alivia is a Big Sis!

Miss Alivia is going to be a BIG SISTER! Aliva + Duke + Baby are going to be the best three friends ever :) How cute are they?! I had so much fun styling this adorable shoot with Nicole – I can’t wait to see if Alivia will be having a baby brother or sister :)

The Solar Family // Northern Minnesota Generational Photographer

I’m excited to share with you all the Solar crew – what a fun bunch! This past Sunday we got together and not only photographed 3 generational photos, but 4 generations! How special that they will have these for years to come :) Here’s a peek into our session together!

Albrecht Family // Summer Minis 2021

Last up on my Summer Mini sneaks is the Albrecht Family. It’s always a fun time when Aaron is in front of my camera – he is quite the goofball and is always willing to show me his latest “tricks”! Kate is such a sweetheart and has the most beautiful eyes ever!

I’m so thankful that the weather held out for my Summer Minis – it turned into quite the beautiful evening with the most goldeny, beautiful night. Thanks to all my families for joining me – I’m hoping to have a fall + winter mini session event this year as well, so stay tuned for that!

Ounchith Family // Summer Minis 2021

Up next from my summer mini sneak peeks is this adorable family – doesn’t TreAllan have the most adorable smile? He sure loves his sister AviAnna! Thank you so much for joining me and enjoy your preview Ounchith family :)

The Odegard Family // Summer Minis 2021

Up next is the Odegard family! I think it’s always so fun to meet people that spend a lot of their weekends where I live because they have cabins in the Lake of the Woods area. Tera, Matt & their girls (+ Luna) are such a beautiful family and were so fun to photograph – side note: ALWAYS bring your doggies along! Luna became a part of their family at the start of COVID and as you can see is the perfect addition to their adorable family! Thanks for joining me for my summer minis :)

The Poppitz Family // Summer Minis 2021

The Poppitz family was the first to join me for my summer minis this past Saturday. I was about 2 seconds away from rescheduling my minis due to the crazy winds and how cold it was, but the weather did a complete 180 and it turned out to be a beautiful evening! Harley & Austin have literally made little mini versions of themselves – Adeline looks just like her momma and Waylon looks just like his daddy! Adeline is quite the little model and rocked my little egg chair with all her poses – so stinkin’ cute! Here’s a sneak into our session together :)

The Wood Family // Summer 2021

This adorable family is finally reunited after Tyler was deployed last August, right after little Bauer was born! Easton is oh so happy to have his daddy back at home! Both Easton and Bauer will be celebrating their birthdays this month – oh what fun :) Here’s a peek into our session together!

The Cousin Crew // Summer 2021

This cousin crew has been so fun to photograph, and come January they will be adding a new member to the bunch! Brodie will no longer be the only boy! It’s crazy to think I have captured so many significant memories for the Thompson/Zacher/Flores/Johnson family from engagements, to weddings, to newborns, to families and everything in between :) Who knows, maybe I’ll even photograph their senior photos and beyond some day!

The Thompson Family // Summer 2021

The sweet Thompson family has had quite the summer! Little miss Bella was born less than two weeks ago, and their daughter Eva will be celebrating her very first birthday this month! I can’t believe the insane amount of wind that we had during our evening at the beach, but sweet Bella slept through it all! It was so nice meeting you, Trish & Pat – your girls are absolutely beautiful!

The Compton Family // Northern Minnesota Family Photographer

Michelle and her family are new to the area and I’m so glad I was able to meet them! Their little man is oh so handsome and has the sweetest grin. Family photo sessions are some of my most fun sessions to capture. I always make it a point to create family photo albums each year as  – they take a lot of time, but are so worth it! Some of my son’s favorite books to look through are our family photo albums!  Here’s a peek into our session together :)
