Christenson Family

Ruth and I met through a mom’s group a few years ago.  She had an older child and I was just beginning my walk in parenting.  Of course at that time with a newborn, I was open to any help I could receive.  She was so helpful and continues to be helpful as we swap stories about child rearing.  Right now, her little girl and my Lydia, are in a music class together; the only girls.  It is so funny when we come to get them, they are giggling and enjoying each other.

We had a perfect fall day to photograph their family in.  The Maple trees are just beginning to change color leaving a few on the ground to play around in.  We strolled around Elm Creek Park together finding lots of leaves to throw, sand to dig in and trees to climb in!  Here are just a few from our time together.  kids 1

    The Melling family

    Elena is not only my good friend, but my wonderful wedding assistant.  We have been working together for over 2 years, into our 3rd wedding season.  She is an amazing photographer and wonderful mother.  We often chat about how different we would do our weddings after seeing the multitudes of different weddings we shoot.  I think one day we’ll get gutsy enough to put on our dresses again and rope our husbands into a round 2 wedding shoot.  Until then, we’ll just have to get our family in their elements!  Here are the makings of a wonderful night and family!melling col 1melling 14melling 18melling 13melling 17melling 16melling 15melling 12melling 9melling 5melling 10melling col 2

      The Schroeder Family

      There is no other time in Minnesota that the light looks as it does in these next 2 months, golden and beautiful!  The Schroeder family got one of the best nights yet for their family photo.  Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder will be celebrating their 40th anniversary this year, so Judy called for a celebration of photos!  I was totally up for the challenge of taking on these 6 kids!  They all did fabulous and the evening up beautifully.

      The Stromberg Family

      Stephanie and I went to high school together over 10 years ago!  About a month ago she e-mailed to find out if I had a time to schedule their family session because her father had just recently been diagnosed with cancer.  wood 11wood 10wood 4wood 9wood 8wood 7wood 3wood 2wood 5wood 6wood 1

      We were able to get through almost the entire shoot without any tears, but as her father was cracking jokes left and right, Steph’s mom just put an arm around her husband, and they fell.  Thank you for allowing me this small window into a huge part of your world. wood 12

      The Noble family

      This is the Noble family!  Super sweet and very easy to relate to!  Amy bid on me at Robbinsdale Spanish Immersion silent auction, and won!  She loves photos, so when I got there, she had some great ideas she wanted me to portray.  Here are just a few from our session!  Thanks for allowing me to meet your beautiful family!noble 9noble 8noble 7noble 6noble 5noble 4noble 3noble 2noble 1

        Becoming an entrepreneur wasn’t easy. It took a lot of hard work in understanding what I wasn’t good at before understanding what I was good at. I failed a lot in the process.

We often only see the good things and success stories on social media, but getting to the point where we are confident in ourselves and our work takes time and lots of failures. Trust me. 25 years and still working at it!!
