Family portraits are a great time to hit multiple birds with one stone – as the saying (sort of) goes. This West St. Paul family had out-of-town relatives visiting so we were able to do a large group shot with three generations, the little kids individually and each family.

These images were taken in Stillwater, MN and are from the hour that we spent after the ceremony and before the reception which is my favorite time to photograph newlyweds. There is a complete shift in energy and feeling from before the ceremony to after – after is much more relaxed, the feeling of “we […]

This senior from Highland Park High School wanted a natural and pretty outdoor setting so I suggested one of my favorite spots. We spent an hour photographing outside and had a great time. These were a few of the top selections.

Sophie, a senior at Henry Sibley in Mendota Heights, came over a few weeks ago with  her mom for her senior pictures. Its was a good thing her mom came with — she knew when certain details were potentially out-of-place and corrected them before I continued photographing. It truly was helpful. We photographed here at […]

Anna from Roseville had great high school senior photo shoot. We started here at the St. Paul studio and then headed downtown for more urban images. We stayed more clean-city urban vs. gritty and had tons of fun.

Sarah is entering her senior year at the Convent of the Visitation catholic school in Mendota Heights. We scheduled a combination photo shoot and started here at the studio for a half hour then went to downtown St. Paul for an urban and a city look. Her session was awesome and felt a lot like […]

This baby is so cute. His name is Maleki and his mom Yemi signed up for the Belly Before and Baby After Program. He was about three weeks in the portraits and was such a doll. These are my favorites.

Its been years since I photographed any live bands but at one time in my life, its what I did all the time. I had an old manual Pentax with a great 1.8 lens and I’d bring it with me to watch shows and document bands, friends and music culture in Portland, OR where I […]

Jill and Josh came over to my studio almost three years ago to document their first pregnancy. Less than a week later (four weeks early) Emma was born. We followed up with beautiful fine-art infant portraits of her. Emma is a big girl now and has a little sister on the way. This time we […]

Mae visited my St Paul studio last week for her newborn photo session. I tried a different set than in the past and really liked the feel, rustic, earthy. She was a great sport, adorable and pretty sleepy. These were my top favorites.
