Gorgeous Family and the Golden Hour {White Bear Lake MN Family Photographer}

Ahhh, 2 of my favorite things, beautiful families and the golden hour. Last night was no exception! It was a perfect evening for photos and Renee and her beautiful family looked fabulous!

I met up with this beautiful family at St. Anthony Main on Sunday. What a most perfect fall day, some of the trees had changed, the sun was shining and the air was crisp. I love Fall!

If you can even believe it, my nephew is turning 1 soon! I am floored at how quickly this year has gone. He has been such a joy to have in our family. He's part sweetheart and part stinker, but we wouldn't have it any other way. I love you Channy Manny!

 

My beautiful friend {MSP Minneapolis Maternity Photographer}

This weekend I went away for a girl's trip with my college girlies. My dear friend Kristin is about 31 weeks pregnant and asked me to snap a few sunset/sillouette pictures of her adorable baby belly. Of course I couldn't resist. Here are a few, isn't she the cutest preggo ever? I think so!

The fading of the sun... {Lino Lakes Child Photographer}

Last night I mustered up a whole bunch of patience to take my own kiddos pictures.   Every so often I get the itch to capture a few beautiful shots of them to hang on our walls.  Not only did I fight a little bit with them, I also had to fight with the setting sun.  These days the sun is setting earlier and faster it seems, but I managed to capture those hazy summer days pictures I so long for in the dark winter months.  

I love this shot, my two beautiful girls with their stud of a brother.  His face cracks me up here.

This was their idea.

Nuts...

We recreated a shot from 2 summers ago.

My adorable and funny little guy.

What a goof.

Beautiful BB. 

She says she was praying, but man does that face say otherwise :)

Appeasing me.

This is the free spirit I know and love!

My sweet and quiet Annika.  I love this shot, just can't decide which processing I prefer more :)

I love her smile, big 2nd grade teeth and all :)

So beautiful.

So now I need to decide what to print!

1 times 2! {minneapolis baby and child photographer}

Yesterday I spent some time with some of the cutest little twinsies around, Avery and Finnigan. Avery and Finnigan are turning 1 next week and we had to celebrate with a photoshoot, complete with a cake smash! Check out Avery's face here, priceless!

Isn't she just a stunning little girl?

And Finnigan, always smiling and oh so handsome.




I just love this shot of the twins with big sis Harper.




Harper was checking out the fountain and the sun was just incredible. I adore these shots, they are just beautiful. The way the sun bounces off her beautiful curls.

 

The water spray was a big hit!
 



Handsome boy.

 

Avery got the biggest kick out of these balloons. She was so cute!

 

Gorgeous mama, Tatiana, with her 2 littles.

 

Dad, Brian, tossing Finn up in the air! Too fun!

 

And on to the real fun! These 2 went nuts! It was awesome! Finn rocked it!





And Avery, oh Avery, you are so darn cute with frosting all over!





Chubby baby fingers laced with cake, can't beat that!





Such a fun session with a beautiful family, I love my job!
