Baby C | North Branch MN Newborn Photographer

I got the privilege of photographing a sweet 9 day old baby boy. He was the sweetest, best baby I've ever experienced. He was awake the whole time and barely made a peep, even when we got him naked and put him on his tummy! Talk about a dream child.

Introducing, baby C!

From Baby C

Ughh, doesn't he just melt your heart?

And of course, a shot of baby feet. Who can resist baby feet?!?!

K Family | Lino Lakes MN Family Photographer

I had the pleasure of photographing my neighbor's family for the second time since starting my business last year. They were my first session and I am grateful for their business. This year was extra special since a few more people were involved. My neighbor had told her mom they were doing pictures for her Christmas card, little did she know that her other daughter would be surprising her to join in on the fun! I loved capturing this moment!

From K Family
Needless to say, she was very surprised and very emotional! It was a sweet moment.


My neighbor and her little sister. I just love this shot, it's soooo sweet.

Love this shot of Miss P and daddy!
From K Family

Oh my, check out this amazingly beautiful family...

I photographed these boys last spring and was amazed by their gorgeous blue eyes. It was such a treat to see them again, and this time for a whole family shoot! Check em out!
From Lamson
Ahhh, aren't these 2 super sweet? I love them!



From Lamson
These two boys are sooo sweet to each other. I just love seeing them interact!

Here is handsome Mr. N. He turns 4 in the next month and he is such a funny little guy. He kept calling me Stanley!

From Lamson


This was his idea. He kept yelling, "hey, take a picture of me!"

From Lamson




From Lamson

And mom and dad. This is where it all begins and ends. Beautiful.

Baby Fever! |St. Paul MN Child Photographer

Ok, so I don't really have baby fever since I have 3 little munchkins here with me and there is no way I could manage a 4th, but I do think that having little visitors is the best cure! Meet my favorite little baby, Lucy.
From Lucy girl
Lucy is 3 months old and her mom is my oldest, and dearest friend, Molly. Molly and I have known each other 18 years! We've been through it all with each other. So far, the best part of our friendship has been welcoming all of our children into our lives. Lucy plays the part of little sis to her big bro Harrison, who is 2 1/2!







From Lucy girl
I love that last shot. So funny!



From Lucy girl
And last, but for sure not least, my 2 favorites! Lucy sticks her tongue out, a lot and I just think it's adorable!



From Lucy girl
And, I'm not sure she gets any cuter, right?



From Lucy girl
I feel so lucky to be able to document little Lucy's life. She is a darling and I can't wait to watch her grow!

And now on to some shameless promoting. Another of my dear friend's, Kristin out in Cali has started an Etsy store. She made these darling little booties for Lucy. Go check out the rest of her stuff over at her Etsy Store: Peony and Poppy.




From Lucy girl
She's making adorable little dresses for my girls too and I am soooo excited!

Have a wonderful night all!

S Family | Lino Lakes Child and Family Photographer

Yesterday was a good day, I got to photograph the most adorable kids. Seriously, all three of these kiddos are absolutely gorgeous. And, they all really love each other too, that is even better! I love this shot of their cute little feet. Have I mentioned that I LOVE kid feet?

From Serpico
Ok, on to pictures of these beautiful children.

Here is Miss S. She is a sweet and incredibly beautiful 7 year old. She gets to start 2nd grade in a few short weeks!



From Serpico
And Mr. J. This guy is 4 and was super fast, but slowed a bit toward the end!



From Serpico

And of course, Mr. N. He just turned 2 in June and he is speaking in sentences. I was so impressed by how smart this little guy was, I just loved listening to him talk!


From Serpico




From Serpico
I just love family shots that involve 3 kids. I think as parents we HOPE that we will get the perfect shot with all 3 kids looking happy. But, we all know that isn't reality. You know what though? I think shots like these are the "perfect" shot. It's real. It's what really happens and we love it because it's how things go down with 3 kids!



From Serpico
They may not be looking at me, but it's very clear how much they love each other!

My favorite of Mr. N. What a little cutie.



From Serpico
My favorite of Mr. J.



From Serpico
And sweet Miss S. I love it. She's just so beautiful.



From Serpico
Thank you so much S family, I had a great time meeting you all yesterday. You have an incredibly beautiful family!
