Ally + Andrew | Colorful Wedding at The NP Event Space

Ally and Andrew's November wedding was one of my all-time favorites...so vibrant with many personal details and beautiful design!  Everything from Ally's GORGEOUS long-sleeved dress, stunning allover floral, sweet puppies, the ladies getting ready flannels and so much more - they style and details were all so perfect.  Ally and her gals started their morning in the loft bridal suite while the guys enjoyed their time at Roundhouse Brewery.  Their ceremony in Luminary Fern was filled with family, friends and an epic floral installation - so amazing!  After the ceremony guests headed over to NP for an evening filled with fantastic food, music and overall great company.  It was a photographers dream - always so much beautiful natural light enhanced in the evening by the glow of the chandeliers and candles.  The day ran so smoothly with full planning, design and decor by Kate Kuepers of Bloom Designs.

Spring Easter Portraits with Bunnies!

I am about to fill the blog with photos of sweet little faces and bunnies so get ready to swoon over adorableness!  How cute are these girls and their beautiful mom?!?!  And little Eva has always been pretty held back with her smiles for me...I guess I just need a bunny at every session!  I am lucky enough to have a sister and sweet nieces who lent their beloved pets for a few photo sessions.

Baby Graham | Brainerd, MN Newborn Photography

I feel so fortunate to often photograph the lives of two people long after their engagement and wedding.  It seems Jameson's newborn milestones were happening just yesterday and now he has the sweetest baby brother.  I don't often photograph newborn sessions as I am not as great at the beautiful super-posed newborn shots as other photographers are, but there is still something that I absolutely love in photographing a family with their new baby.  It seems like I could use a few more in my life.  ;)  Congratulations Adam and Liz on creating another adorable son! 

Sarah + Luke + Belly | Brainerd Maternity Photographer

There is nothing better than when I find out one of my wedding couples is expecting a baby. Sarah and Luke will have a beautiful little newborn girl soon and I am so happy for them!  And I might be a little too obsessed with her unicorn booties...cutest thing ever!  :)  Part two with some softer portraits of Sarah coming soon!
