Nichole contacted me a while back wanting photos of their family. She and her husband live on the outskirts of the Cities and wanted a place that would accentuate that part of their lives. We found the perfect location not too far from either of us; Gale Woods Farm (also a beautiful place for a wedding). It was a perfect day for photos and the leaves were at peak.
Issac was so perfect for the shoot, he seemed at home in the hay! Aaron told me later in the shoot that when Issac was smaller, he would sleep in the warm hay while they were working outside, no wonder he was so happy.

Such a cutie!

LOVE, LOVE the tree here. I was inspired to do our family photos here after this shoot, and a week later the leaves were almost gone! I guess that is fall in MN for you.

And my very favorite from the session….
