last weekend was sadies, allie’s first school dance:) it was an evening event and she invited dominic to attend the dance with her. i took this picture inside dom’s house, on automatic with my canon 5d mark II and my 50 mm 1.4 lens. crappy light…crappy light. and this is what i did to it...

i am going to remove my mentoring blurp…i will be honest and say that i have only had a handful of inquiries outside the minneapolis area and i have gotten too busy during to even think about tackling this may-november. and i hope to use this winter to beef up my boudoir business and add...
i haven’t shown a before and an after lately, so here is one for your viewing. this is why my senior rates are as they are:) it is not just a click of a button…it is a lot more involved than that. i spend hours making each senior look their absolute best…just ask my kids/hubby!...
I have been in business roughly 4 years and i honestly have only experienced 3 years of seniors, as my website went up after the senior season was completed the fall the year i decided to take the plunge. obviously, i started doing any and all clients that inquired-newborns, families, kids, church head shots, unique...

i have shared a photography studio in ne mpls with kristen for over a year and she is a photographer who is consistent with her work and very knowledgeable. she is a fabulous woman, wife, and mom of three and it was so much fun being creative with a fellow photographer! here is one more...
My fellow photographer friend, kristen, asked if i would do an outdoor boudoir shoot for her as a surprise for her hubby for their anniversary. i was honored that she would trust me with this…flattered actually…but i felt some pressure as i haven’t done that many boudoirs yet. and she’s a damn good photographer too!...
I am playing major catch up today and I apologize to everyone for not getting back to you yesterday.

I met with Sammie this past week for her mini “boudoir” shoot. I had worked with her previously so I was very excited. We had a humid, 84 degree day and I was a sweating:) As we all know things don’t always go like we want them to. On this day Sammie texted me saying...
