Togetherness.

What is important to you?  When asked, most people will have some variation of family in their answer.    We couldn't agree more!  Capturing families is always special for us.  Having family portraits that document a time in a family's life is priceless.  Showing connections, relationships, feelings is what you remember when you look at your own family images.

This family is not only gorgeous *and super fun to photograph*  but we love how they all relate to each other!  Brother, sisters, mom, dad.  Fun, playful, silly, loving. (it is an added bonus that mom styled them all so fabulously!) It has been a couple of years since we have photographed them so it was cool to see how these siblings have all grown up and have fun together!  We know their family portraits hold a special place in their hearts and we hope they will cherish this as much as we loved creating it for them.

Back to School Bliss!

Here in Minnesota, today is the first day of school for most kids!  A day when we leave those carefree days of summer behind and trade in the lazy mornings for mornings of rushing to catch the bus!  We hope to squeak out some more warm, summer-like weather these next few weeks to ease us all into the fall routine!
When we think back to this summer at the studio-this sibling trio comes to mind! This was one of our favorite summer sessions this year. Not only are these three incredibly sweet, kind and good looking-but they all got along so well with each other. We seriously could have spent the whole day with them!!    Capturing their relationships with each other and each of their own personalities was priceless! We are happy to have gotten to know them!   Here's hoping they had a great first day at school today!

Cousins!

What can be more fun and loving than cousins?  In our house, we have just come off three weeks with various cousins visiting from Canada and there was nothing more heartwarming as a parent than to see their kiddos interact, play, belly-laugh, be silly, loving and sweet with their cousins.  Especially when cousins do not get to see each other because of geographical distance!  This is the case with these four lovely girls!! Two sisters live here in Minnesota and two sisters live in Texas (can you tell who are sisters?!?!) So when the Texas sisters came up to Minnesota to spend part of their summer vacation with their cousins, it was only natural that a photo session was scheduled as a gift to their grandparents. The result?  Four super cute girls coordinated in the best outfits ever having a fabulous time in the studio with us while we captured the love between them!  BEST gift ever to grandma and grandpa!!!  We know these images are going to provide much joy and pleasure as they are displayed for years to come!!

Bridget-Class of 2014

It was a "magical" kind of day when Bridget came in for her senior session last month!  We feel like Bridget has been a part of the Miroslavich Photography family forever since we first photographed her 6 years ago.  Of course, the session wouldn't have been complete without Brady the dog tagging along!  (how sweet is he?!?!)  We loved incorporating Bridget's favorite things including the piano and her love of anything Disney.  Here's to a great senior year, Bridget!! We hope it brings you everything you wish for!

PhotoStyled Fun!

An early summer morning, a fabulous family of 5 and perfect Minnesota weather (with no bugs!!).  Who could ask for anything more?!? Add to this combination two big brothers who simply adore and dote on their little sister and we had an awesome morning!! This family also was one of our Photostyled sessions which we launched last fall.  PhotoStyled sessions are for clients who want even more help in putting the finishing touches on clothing coordination and also for clients who "want it all"!  The cool thing is the styling process is still a completely collaborative experience.  We actually have two options for your styled portrait experience.  ClothingStyled provies additional help with clothing choices.  A stylist actually comes to your home and coordinates your family's outfits.  PhotoStyled takes this another step further marrying visual design with relationship photography to turn your session into a conceptual masterpiece (think magazine ad).  Not only do we provide a stylist for clothing design and extra help during your session (the stylist came to this family's session to help!), we also complete an in-home consultation to discuss unique portrait display options and ultimately hang your art for you while you ohh and ahh over your new art piece.  It's for when good enough, just isn't!  

Backyard Fun!

Minnesota summers are the best-everyone who lives here would agree! And what could be better than hanging out with this cute family in their summer backyard?  Franklin and Lewis are brothers who are no strangers to this blog!  Over the years we have captured them and their family at various times in their lives, documenting their growth, development and relationship as brothers. We adore watching them grow up! On this occasion, it was all about playing, running and having fun with each other and their fur-brother, Stu!  Being 3 and 5 years old is pretty darn good, I'd say!!

Kim - Class of 2013

We've said it before but I will say it again-we get to meet the BEST high school seniors every year!  These seniors have it all together and have so many talents, it always amazes us!  Kim is a high school senior who dazzled us with her personality and love of the arts.  Her vintage flair and passion for theater and literature was incorporated into her session which made it so uniquely Kim!  We know that  Kim is exploring her options for colleges for next fall and we cannot wait to see where she ends up!!  Congrats, Kim!!

Silly sisters!!

Don't you wish we could all be as carefree as these two sweet sisters, Charlotte and Caroline and their dog, Lulu?  (Lulu is THE Lulu from the petstore and grooming paw-lour Lulu & Luigi in the Twin Cities!) Their pretty sundresses, flowers in their hair, the light summer breeze-it all seems so light hearted and fun.  The girls loved exploring their surroundings-whether it was playing in the stream or picking flowers for their mommy-we were able to capture that innocence and sisterly love.  As the days get shorter and the weather turns colder, we need to keep days like these in mind!!
