Kaitlyn’s session is my first spring senior session and I want to do more spring senior sessions! Check out the gorgeous flowering trees in the background. LOVE!! I’ve shot at this park a couple of times in the past but never in the spring when the foliage is so different than late summer early fall.

The weather was playing games with us all day the day of her session. It threatened to rain most of the day, then part of the day and then finally, just a little bit of the day.

My final Class of 2023 senior was with Anders. 😥 I can’t believe the time has come for my final senior session of this year. It has been one wild and crazy ride this fall but it’s also been good. Hanging out with Anders and his mama, Laura was the best way to end my senior season.

I think this is my second favorite session of the senior Class of 2023. I’m so excited to share it with you! I’ve done only a handful of senior pictures in Downtown Farmington and I keep finding new little places to find spots to photograph in that I haven’t done them in before

I love how much variety Dakota City Village has to offer when it comes to doing senior pictures. There are a bunch of old timey buildings set in the village to replicate what Farmington might have looked like in it’s hey day, big open field spaces and trees! Huge bonus, it’s super quiet here.

I have lived in Twin Cities for almost 12 years and have been photographing for about 5 years now, and I have not once photographed a family or senior in the cute little town of Northfield. Northfield reminds me of my hometown a bit with it’s old buildings and old fashioned charm. And let me tell you, the downtown area is beyond cute!

This girl loves music, probably more than I do, she’s in marching band and plays at least 3 different instruments, one of which she brought to her session to have in a couple of her photos.

From chatting with her throughout her session, she has of love of not just music from her generation but also, “retro” music, like that of The Beatles and artists from the ’50s.
