Nate - Class of 2012

Really this blog entry should be entitled Nate the Great as we are a big fan of this high school senior! Nate came to us as a referral from another awesome senior at his high school. From the moment we met Nate (and his mom!) we knew it was going to be a fun session. Nate is a basketball fan and brought his collection of super cool sneakers to the session which we had to capture. In addition to that, Nate has a passion and talent for beatboxing which he also brought with him. Melissa and I were very intrigued to learn more!! It never ceases to amaze us how amazingly talented and interesting the seniors we get to meet! We so loved working with Nate-we know there are great things in your future, Nate, and we look forward to seeing what adventures await you.

Animal Tracks magazine

We love our friends at the Animal Humane Society (AHS)! 2011 has been an exciting year of partnership for us with the AHS-we have more to share with you in the New Year but until then, we thought we would share with you the latest cover of the AHS magazine, "Animal Tracks". Animal Tracks is the AHS magazine that is published 3 times a year. Click on the link here to see more images: http://www.animalhumanesociety.org/ATFallWinter11


In addition to the cover, we were excited to be driving to the studio from a location photo session earlier this month and see one of Melissa's images from our recent AHS photo session on a billboard close to the studio. In fact, we were driving when Melissa let out a squeal that frightened the daylights out of me! The squeal was a result of turning a corner and facing this billboard! What a great surprise! And how cool to see a Miroslavich Photography image on a billboard!! We just had to share....

Plenty of fun!

Not only does this family have an abundance of kids, they also have an abundance of love, energy and fun! (and a quick side note-since this session, they have added a puppy to the mix! Images of puppy Lena to come soon!!!) I think even the older kiddos in this family were surprised by how much fun it was to come to the studio and have their portraits taken. Of course, sweet 2 year old Will was the one who keeps everyone laughing and giggling! He is definitely the glue that brings everyone together!

Holiday cheer!

I think this session truly got us into the holiday spirit!! When 6 month old John, his parents and their gorgeous dogs came in for this session it was still late October. However, when mom Kim pulled out one of dad's hats to put on Baby John, it was over the edge cute! This inspired Melissa to design a rockin' Christmas card for John's first Christmas! From beginning to end, this session was a blast! John was all smiles and giggles -especially with the addition of his dog siblings to the session at the end!! Nothing is better than a 6 month old laugh! We hope this darling family enjoys their first Christmas with Baby John!!

Family and Fall Leaves!

With snow now on the ground in Minnesota, this cool crisp fall morning seems like it was ages ago! Fall in Minnesota never seems long enough-maybe because we aren't looking forward to the long months of winter! So as I look at these images, I remember this fall morning fondly when we spent time with a lovely family. The previous time we photographed this family, it was the heat of summer and we were looking for shade.

We love the playfulness of this session and how much fun these brothers had exploring the park, throwing leaves at each other, mom and dad and Melissa and I, too!! Joining them for this session was their lovely nanny, Sarah, who we captured with the boys, as well. Very sweet!! We know that they will enjoy viewing these portraits displayed in their family room and the punch of these great colors will be spectacular! (Jackie never ceases to amaze us with her talents in decorating and displaying art in her home!)
