Welcome Summer

Hello All! Summer is here and I think all Minnesotans are VERY glad about that. Lucky me, I got to shoot a beautiful wedding this past Saturday and then was still able to spend the next beautiful day lounging with my family. The sunshine and warmth were much appreciated.

While the lack of blog postings (guilty as usual) :) may imply that nothing is going on, in truth it seems everything is going on!!!!

Such as:
-Studio shopping (a definite possiblity on Grand Ave has emerged - no final decision yet - August may be moving month)
-Wedding season (photographing weddings of course, as well as dress shopping with my lovely sister who just got engaged on a trip to Italy, lucky girl) :)
-Website creating (a wonderfully new modern & luxurious Feather Blue website is in the works!)
-Fashion shooting (lots of shoots with the winners from our April Model Integrity event)
-And of course my fabulous portrait clients: babies, kids, a few families, and yes it's time for hs seniors again.
-Oh, and my two kiddos keep me busy as well (in photos and in life). :) Delia had her official last day of preschool today and I am feeling quite sentimental about it. Could I really have a Kindergartender?? Could I possibly have taken enough pictures of her over the last five years??? :) Hunter is 15 months going on 5 and while he isn't quite walking yet, plays with his sister like a pro. I am SO BLESSED.

Enough with words. Since it's been forever, I am going to post some random images here with no rhyme or reason to who or why or when. A tiny tasting of projects from the last few months. Just people and art and loads of fun...

(NOTE SINCE PUBLISHING: for whatever reason, the colors of some of the images in this particular posting appear to be off; and while computer screens do vary, my apologies to those of you whom see these as faded with a slight greenish-yellowish tint. That is not how they look in real life! And while that might not matter to anyone else, it is crucial as a photographer, so worth noting. :) You'll have to trust me that the colors are rich and vibrant in person, ;) and I'll try to figure out why the blog is converting them that way).

Some recent baby annoucements (with adorable babies of course):



An engagement session with my very own Intern from this past Spring, Autumn, and her fiancee Todd. Congrats Autumn!












A family session with one of my current "elite petite" babies:






And my very own munchkins (these happen to be their modeling comp cards). Hunter at about One Year old (his hair is even bushier in real life) :) and Delia at Five.
