The Williams family was a winner of silent auction donation I had given to a local youth baseball group from this summer. I was so excited to meet this family that I showed up at Ritter Farm Park super early. Thankfully it was a gorgeous night to hang out in my car without melting while the a/c was off.

It’s been a couple of years since I’ve photographed this extended and blended family and they’ve added a few more family members since. I enjoy every moment of time spent with these fantastic people, it sometimes feels like herding cats but that’s the best part of being with them all.

I’m so excited to share this sweet little family from Farmington, Minnesota family pictures with you all! The Cook family is new to the area and hadn’t had a family picture in 6 years, especially since they added a new member to their family, their adorable pup

The rain throughout the day threatened to postpone this extended family session with the Sodolka family. But it seemed to stay away for just enough time to get this family together. One plus to the threat of rain, we had the park practically to ourselves!

I love seeing how much these little dudes have grown over the last 4ish years since I’ve started taking their pictures. I also appreciate Allesha and her family to be super flexible with trying new places for their family sessions with me!

Margarita and her adorable little family are new clients to me. She reached out to have some family pictures done and to celebrate their little one turning one!

It all started because two people fell in love. Sounds super cheesy and cliche, but hey, it’s true, and I like it.

I always enjoy the ideas Autumn’s mama comes up with for her yearly pictures, last year it was all her stuffed animals, the year before that it was rocks, this year was no different. Vintage Coca-Cola.

Spring is here, even though it definitely does NOT feel like it right now. To quote Winnie the Pooh, It’s a rather blustery day out there today.

It wasn’t windy inside the studio the day of my spring mini session. It was a comfy 70 something degrees, with the sun shining through the window {…}

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when you book a photo session. It’s a huge investment into your families memories and you want to get it just right. Finding the right photographer that meshes well with you and your personality. As well as, whether or not they have an indoor studio or, photograph the majority of their sessions outside {…}
