Does this family look perfect, or what? I'm a big proponent for annual family photography so sometimes this means I extent free shoots to family members! In this case, Sarah and I traded skills: she made my house look beautiful and I took her family's pictures! For this shoot we ventured to Yahara Heights County Park. Edit Image Edit Image Edit...

Hello friends! Coming to you from my home office... just like us all right now;) I'm so excited to be catching up on blogging and even more excited to be getting back out there, cautiously of course, on Saturday for an engagement shoot. Jacob marries Eliza is boy marries the girl next door. These two grew up next door to each other. When Jacob vis...

I love all kinds of photography. I'm a girl who loves variety so I look to do anything and everything I can, and I love to learn new kinds of photography. But, if I had to pick a very favorite, I would pick birth photography. In my experience, it's the only kind of photography that is 100% unposed. No one is paying any attention to me and that's t...

My dear friend Autumn takes care of her people like she is sister, mother, and best friend to all of them in only the most wonderful ways. I've been on the receiving end of her care so many times and it's so life-giving and beautiful. So, when her only sister set out to get married she hosted the party in her backyard, took care of the catering and...

One of the things I've learned and adapted to in these 10 something years of photographing weddings is that each couple has their wedding budget and sometimes that doesn't line up with the cost of my services in order for me to keep this thing running. And sometimes, a couple like Casey and Evan comes along the kind of couple who loves me and my wo...

Sara & Chad got married at Blue Mound State Park, Wisconsin. The drive out was amazing, the ceremony was intimate and sweet and outside, and the food and company were fantastic. In short, the day was perfect. Sara & Chad, thank you for choosing me to photography your amazing day! You and your families are so sweet and I'm just so excited to do lif...

This is the third time I've photographed for this sweet family. I've loved each and every shoot so much! This one I loved for obvious reasons, I got to hang out with a sweet, tiny baby! And for not so obvious reasons, I have and always will adore taking pictures of newborns. It's a blend of portrait and "product" photography that I love. "Product"...

This session was a blast! We talked of rescheduling because this was one of those 90 something and 75%+ humidity days but I'm so glad we didn't! The evening cooled down dramatically so we got more comfortable (and sweat free) pretty quickly. What I loved about this session was getting to incorporate Emily's dog, her boyfriend and, my favorite, goo...

Barn weddings are my favorite! Well, barn weddings, outdoor weddings, and backyard weddings. Trends aside and barn weddings would still be my favorite. This day was perfect. Not too hot and partly cloudy (just enough to give me some good, even lighting for pictures). To see more wedding photography CLICK HERE. location, location, location… VENU...

I love Minnesota outdoor wedding photography. All of those words are a few of my favorite things! Then to top it off, a horse walked this bride down her aisle!
