Buddies...

Edison and Lucas are brothers but more than anything else, you can tell they are good buddies! Each have their own unique personalities which shone through at our session. We asked them each to bring something to the session that reflected their personality and interests. Lucas brought a baseball bat to the session-clearly a baseball fan! And Edison brought a model airplane that he had built himself-a future awaits him in engineering, we think! We had a fun time with the session-and they even were a part of the naming of the "schmermer"-next time you are at the studio, ask Melissa to show it to you!!

Fall in the city!

We love fall in Minnesota! And what a gorgeous fall we have had! This super cute family was one of our first fall photo sessions back in September-look at how well coordinated and stylish they look (good job, Kelli!!) We photographed Lily when she was 18 months old and now she is 4 1/2 and so grown up! Little brother Jack is 2 years old and ready to be on the go-after all, he has to keep up with his big sis! What a darling family-thanks for starting off our fall with such a great session!

All the way to Minnesota!

This lovely session happened way back in the summer but we have been a little behind on some of our blog posts (one of the downfalls of being so busy!)However, we haven't forgotten darling Sophia who is 17 months old at the time of this session. What a doll! Sophia is the youngest of 4 children so you know she gets lots of love at home! Sophia's family has been coming to us for family portraits for many years. We were very sad when they moved away from Minnesota to Pennsylvania two years ago. So you can imagine how delighted we were when Sophia's mom called to book a session during their trip back to Minnesota this summer?! And you can imagine how overjoyed we were when we learned they are planning to move back here very soon! It has been an honor and pleasure for us to capture this sweet family over the years. And we look forward to many more photo sessions in the years to come! (stay tuned for images of all the siblings in another blog post soon!)

We are so lucky to work with such great local businesses!! And Posh Pooch Pet Boutique is one of them! They recently asked us to photograph some of their beautiful models showcasing current fashion trends in dog couture. Here is a sample of some of our favorites from that day. To see more, click on Posh Pooch's website and see the video that we created for them. You will want to run out and buy all the latest trends for pooches-even if you don't have one!! Enjoy!!

Sitting Pretty!

Baby Emerson (aka Emmy)came to us at the perfect age-6 months which may be one of our favorite ages/stages to photograph! And she couldn't have been more of a doll! Her expressions are priceless and we captured them all! It was hard for her parents to choose! Although they did decide on a collage for one of their walls which is going to look stunning! We can't wait to watch Emmy grow and see her sunny personality develop-what a superstar!

Going, going, almost gone!!

Santa Mini-Sessions are almost completely booked! We have just a couple of sessions left on both days: Thursday October 14 and Saturday October 16! We are super excited that this event is going to be a hit again this year. Our clients who have scheduled mini-sessions can't wait for the big day! So, we are getting the Santa suit dusted off, finding the perfect holiday music, and gearing up for a day (well, actually two) of holiday magic in October! We will be sure to share some images with everyone on the blog! So, don't delay-call and book your session now before they are all gone!! Ho HO Ho!

Creating lasting memories.....

This super-fun family came to us for a family photo session on location at their home, shortly before they moved. They wanted portraits created of them enjoying their home so they could treasure them for years to come. This had been home to all of them for a number of years-and has special meaning to each of them. And not least of which are their 4 gorgeous dogs: Althea, Maisy, Kody and Mulligan. You could tell how much they loved to roam the property freely! You could also tell how much they mean to their owners: Sara, Hunter and Andrew!
We are proud to have created beautiful memories for this family and we know they are now displayed in their new home for them to enjoy forever.
