Beautiful Fields, and Bubble Fun: Ochs Family Session

   Someone seriously call GAP. They need to know about the sheer adorableness (I realize this is not a real word) of this family.  All five of them are just beautiful, fun and sweet.  They have style, they have an amazing amount of love- and I adore photographing them. I had the honor of photographing them early last winter- and this session began with a huge bear hug from one of the boys- and continued with all three of them holding my hand at some point and wanting to help assist me.  Cute doesn't even begin.  Between the perfect fall night, the golden fields and the rustic barn, this was a session not be forgotten- here is look into our time together: 

Class of 2016: Hannah

    I've said it a million times and I will say it again: I love photographing seniors! Especially when they are as talented, beautiful and driven as Hannah! This athletic, gorgeous and smart senior has goals of running a marathon this year and becoming a doctor in the future- among so many other things.  It was such a blast to get to know her hopes and capture both her dramatic serious looks as well as her joyfully exuberant laughs.  Here is peek into our session:

Sweet Love & Stunning Stillwater: Jackie & Tim's Engagement Session

     Sometimes life can surprise you.  Such was the case for Jackie and Tim.  A few months ago, I had the privilege of sitting over coffee in a busy Maple Grove cafe and hearing about how they met, fell in love and found a second chance at a deep, wonderful love.  After losing their beloved first spouses in years past, both Tim and Jackie lived life fully- diving into parenthood, work, and friendships.  And yet, this love was waiting for them.

    We were blessed with a gloriously perfect autumn day in Stillwater and I was happy to capture their sweetness, their adorable joy and their laughter.  Here is a look into some of the images taken:

I so looking forward your July 2016 wedding, Jackie & Tim!

Actor Headshots: Kat

    As a photographer, I love that no two days look the same for me. Actor Headshots were a first for me this past weekend- and I loved it!  It is no surprise that it was a blast when you look at my subject. Kat is as smart as she is beautiful and after photographing her senior portraits several years ago, it was such an honor to get her some great shots for her budding and blooming career in acting!  With talent like hers, there is no doubt this girl will go far!  Here are just a couple of the final images from her session:
