2013 Family Fall Sessions!

Fall 2013 here in Minnesota has been nothing short of spectacular!  The warm weather has certainly been in our favor- delaying the fabulous colors or the trees a good couple of weeks.  That is allowing us to schedule outdoor sessions for families well into mid-late October. (although we do know from past experience, all it takes is one good windy day and all the leaves will be gone!)

If you haven't already scheduled your fall session, call or email us today!  651.343.4823.  We will get you in our calendar before Minnesota turns cold and blustery-we know it's coming....but every beautiful day we can squeak out beforehand is a bonus!!!

Introducing Saturday photo sessions this fall!!

It is shaping up to be an exciting fall at Miroslavich Photography!   For the first time ever, we are offering Saturday photo sessions this fall on the following Saturdays:

Saturday September 14
Saturday October 12
Saturday November 9

Sessions will take place at the studio or weather permitting on location in Woodbury.  There are a limited number of sessions each Saturday so call us this week at 651.343.4823 to schedule your Saturday session!  We anticipate that all sessions will be booked quickly! Once they are gone, they are gone!

Family Fun!

Time for a new family portrait was what prompted this family of 5 to come in to see us just before the holidays! Of course, it was a bonus for us that these three kiddos were exuding enthusiasm and fun!  And since we know that Melissa has a "thing" for hats-when they all brought out their fun, winter hats, it was the icing on the cake for this session!

Fall Stories

Part of what makes our jobs so much fun is being able to capture moments in families' lives that tell their story.  Whether it is the addition of a new family member, a milestone like starting to walk,  a lost tooth, or the start of a new school year, every session has a story to be told.  This lovely family decided that a special birthday was the time for a new family portrait.  The perfect time.  So, on a bright fall day, we created these memories!  The result?  We captured a time in their lives when McKayla had her animal print hair extension, when Brady's grown up teeth had grown all the way in, when their hair was still sun-bleached and their skin still sun-kissed.  We captured the sweet brother-sister relationship and Brady's brotherly protectiveness. We captured their family spontaneity and fun spirit. We love that when they see these portraits in their home, they will remember these things and the stories that accompany them.  So thrilled that we can do this for you!

Sisterly love!

When we look back at last fall, it seems like it was the season of sisters!!  We met many new sisters and saw some of our long time sister friends as well!  There is something special about these relationships-sweet and silly, loving and caring.  And these two sisters certainly have those characteristics.  Leah and Sophie are 6 and 4 and lit up our studio when they came in a few months ago.  Their giggles and stories kept us wishing that every morning started that way!  We know the portraits we created for their home will provide many years of pleasure happiness and pleasure. 

Flashback to Fall!!!

This is one of our last fall sessions in 2011 that we haven't had a chance to share yet. It was a gorgeous late fall day when the sun was absolutely delicious and warm. Mmmmm... We photographed brother and sister Olivia and Connor-it had been a year since we had seen them and were amazed at what lovely teenagers they have become. We are excited that Connor will be back at the studio this summer for his senior session which is hard to believe!! Where does the time go?!?

Jennifer-Class of 2012

It was during Jennifer's planning session prior to her high school senior photo session that she shared with us that she wanted to incorporate her passion for horseback riding into her senior portraits...and we couldn't have been more excited! Two of our favorite things-senior sessions and horses!! What could be better?!? Jennifer's session took place on a beautiful fall day at Kinni Valley Riding Academy (thanks, Carolyn!! http://www.kinnivalleyacademy.com/ ). Jennifer is a senior at the Agricultural and Food Sciences Academy in the Twin Cities and will graduate this spring-we can't wait to see what the future holds for her!! Best of luck, Jennifer!!

Saint Paul Fall skyline

We were thrilled when this family asked us to photograph them with the city of Saint Paul's skyline as the backgroup to their portraits! We love working in and around Saint Paul-it is really a pretty city. And the skyline is the perfect backdrop! Brother and sister, Garrett and Brooke, were great to work with-and what can be better than Garrett's partially toothless grin?!?

Three blonde cuties!!!

How cute are these three blondies? Adeline. Eli. Stella. We have known this family for just over a year and can't get enough of them! This was our first outdoor session with them and so fun to watch them discover their surroundings and explore. Running, chasing, jumping, posing, climbing, giggling. It doesn't get much better than that. We can't wait for their next session-with mom and dad this time!!

Is it January already?!?

We can hardly believe that it is January already! The fall and the holidays seemed to have flown by-in fact, we are still very behind on posting many of the fabulous fall photo sessions we had so since it is a new year, we are going to start off by getting caught up! (it certainly doesn't help that even though it is January, we are experiencing record highs for Minnesota so the fall doesn't seem that long ago!)

We photographed this super fun family on a cool October day and had fun with their three kiddos and dog, Clyde. Mom coordinated their outfits superbly - if we ever need clothing consultations, we know who to call!! We have enjoyed getting to know this family-Lucas, Olivia and Logan were a ton of fun to photograph and were such great sports on a chilly day! Their portraits are going to be stunning in their beautiful home!

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!
