This session was held at Krueger's Tree Farm in Lake Elmo. What an adorable place! They had a great selection of pre-cut trees and you can also cut your own. Plus a place to warm up and most important...SANTA. The first photo in this post is one of my all time favorites!

{my brother vinny}

Twins "E" and "G" stopped over for a session with their new baby brother. I typically only photograph children who are not yet walking at my home because the space is pretty small and there are many distractions. I am dreaming of a studio...maybe some day...

{what would i do without you}

I met K in 4th grade. We shared a locker in high school. She moved away and we lost touch for a bit. A chance meeting several years ago got us back together. We needed each other. It was meant to be. What would I ever do without you! There were too many of this fabulous family to pick from! LOVE the colors.

{finally....a SMILE}

I have been on a mission to get a smile from "T". Finally, at this recent session to celebrate his 1st birthday...a smile! He is so darn cute even without a smile!

{brand new}

Most brand new babies sleep A LOT. Especially during the day when they should be awake! "M" had other plans. We could not get him to sleep! Maybe he was watching the Vikings game with Dad and he did not want to miss a play.
