Klara – 10 months | Minnetonka baby photographer

Klara came to my studio from Minnetonka earlier this year when I was looking for a model for some new baby outfits I purchased for clients to use.  She was 10 months old at the time, and was the perfect model!   Smiley, happy, and some seriously amazing hair.   I call this age the sitter age, […]

The J Family | Arden Hills MN family photographer

I will catch up on blogging.  I will catch up on blogging.  I will catch up on blogging.  Maybe if I keep repeating it, it will actually happen?  The good news is, things have been busy!  Crazy summer season is upon us, with an even crazier fall right around the corner.  I’ve been photographing the […]
