How to take great photos of newborns - today on Twin Cities Live!!

Don't forget to tune into Twin Cities Live today at 3pm (channel 5-KSTP-TV) as Melissa will be on a segment all about photographing newborns! The most adorable Baby Grayson was our baby model a couple of weeks ago at the sweet age of 6 days old!! He was a star and we can't wait for everyone (including his family) to see his gorgeous images!! Melissa is excited to be on Twin Cities Live today...it is always a fun time! (I am tagging along...hoping there might be a yummy food segment today with some delish samples! Mmmmm!)

Brothers together!

These brothers certainly LOVE their momma!!! It was very sweet and special to see their loving relationship with Mom! And of course, with each other! We know boys well and how demonstrative they can be showing their affection with each other!! Matthew and Jonathan are the rough and tumble kind of guys that we love capturing! However, we were able to capture some quiet moments that shows their softer sides! We know these images melt their mom's heart!

Olivia turns one!

Sweet Olivia! What a doll!! Maybe you remember her darling 6 month images sucking her thumb? Well, look at her now! All grown up and ready to go! Toddling around the studio liked she owned it! Older brother Zach joined in the fun, too! We can hardly believe how big they are both getting...we love photographing them. It is always such a pleasure and a treat for us! Can't wait to see them again soon!!

Our Canuck friends!!

We heart our Canadian friends!!! This super cute family moved to Minnesota last summer from Canada and we couldn't be happier! And they were equally excited to have us create their first official family portrait...what a great way to commemorate living in a new country! We were able to photograph in the studio and then we moved outdoors to take full advantage of the beautiful fall colors (or as they spell it in Canada, "colours"!) Jack, Olivia and Sam were superstars during the session and we captured some great moments between them. You can tell what a special sibling relationship they share! Of course, Sam, who is the youngest, is the most spirited of the three and we couldn't help giggling over the image of him peeking out between his older brother and sister! We know their families back home will adore these images and we are so glad to share them with you!!

Happy 2010!

Happy New Year!! We are excited to be blogging our first entry in 2010! We have been back to work in the studio for the last week and 2010 has started with a bang! 2010 is going to be a fun year at the studio and we can't wait to share with you our plans...but first things first!! We had to start the year with images from a session we did before the holidays and we wanted to wait to unveil it as our first 2010 blog!

6 month old Lewis (you may remember his newborn session back in the spring?!) and his big brother, Franklin (who is somewhat of a rockstar on the blog!) came in for their first "brothers" session and it couldn't have been more sweet! Mom and Dad are adjusting very well to their household of boys and the heightened activity level that goes along with that!

Before we know it, spring will be here (when it is -15F, that seems hard to believe!!) and Lewis will be back for his year old session!!
