Miller Family

These kids were so much fun to photograph! They really made my job easy. Their personalities really shined through in the pictures. You can probably tell that we didn't have ANY fun when you look at them :-) Happy Friday everyone!

This picture makes me smile!

What beautiful kids!

Rockin it OUT!

This series is so much fun!!

Family

A couple weekends ago I photographed one of my favorite families!! Doug and Alina have been friends of mine for a long time now, and every year they call me to get photos taken I get so excited because WOW, they have a beautiful family. Their girls are just stunning, probably because their parents are both good looking I am guessing :) We went out to the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum and had a great time. 

This is probably one of my favorite pictures from the shoot!! Total 2 year old attitude! I'm just gonna stand over here and eat my oranges cause I am SO over this!! Priceless!! 

Seriously, can she get any more beautiful!! look at those eyes!!

Gotta love the days when you are missing your two front teeth, so precious!!

She is just beautiful, love the way the wind swept her hair here :)

Look at how beautiful their family is!! 

love my family!!!

So a few months ago (as you can see by the leaves still on the trees), I photographed my sisters family.  As I was going through the pictures, I just sat here and laughed because every formal picture that I tried to get, there was someone making a silly face or hitting someone, or just not looking. I guess when you have 5 kids, their personalities all shine when auntie Amy is trying to take their pictures.  We always have such a great time hanging out, and I am grateful that they live a short 20 minutes away from me.  

this picture of the family is probably my favorite!! love it!! We did get a few good formal ones, but I love this one because it is so their family!

I really liked this one of the the hands and Jed who isn't quite tall enough yet, so cute

Typical Jaden face

try not to smile when you see this one.

 one of my favorite also, so peaceful I think

Gindt Family: Rockin' it!

So last week I photographed one of the most fun families!!  They totally rocked it, and I fell in love with them and this session. I love it when families are willing to try new things and be creative along with me, it makes my job so much more fun. Shawn has been such a sweetheart to me through this whole process and I think I have made a new friend in her :) She cracks me up and I can tell that her and her hubby are doing an awesome job raising the three boys.  Thanks again Shawn, you and your family ROCK!!

such handsome boys!!

love this one!!

just picking on little brother having a blast!!

One of my favorites from the session, just because it isn't a "normal" family portrait
