Story of Now

I am blessed to have this unique role in peoples lives; I get to capture the beauty and the essence of who they are! On Thursday October 9th I photographed Kaitlyn and Luke! Little Luke loved playing with the leaves, it was hard to get him to even look up. Kaitlyn enjoyed getting her picture taken and loved playing with the horeshoes and jumpin' in the leaves! These two are so cute! On Saturday October 18th I took some pictures of two fur boys...Murray and Zack. We had a lot of fun running around in the backyard! This is Zack... This is Murray.... I just love capturing the beauty of life! Beauty is not caused. It is. ~Emily Dickinson

This past weekend I had my bachelorette party. Emmy and Amanda (Maitron and Maid of Honor) put on an awesome party...they did quite the planning. We went to a place called "Retro on the River". This house was awesome, but what was so cool about it was the women that joined to celebrate with me. Everyone had their part...bringing food, wine and laughter into the house! I just want to say how very blessed I feel to have so many women that I can count on to celebrate with or to call on when I need a friend! I am thankful for each of you! The weekend was trully special and memorable!

Here is a little preview from Tj's Senior session yesterday. He is so easy going and has a very kind heart. He loves animals. He rescued Gulliver, this Golden Retriever/Shepard mix. It was fun working with you TJ! Hope your Senior Year is fun and memorable! Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm. ~Abraham Lincoln

Well I guess I have fallen behind on blogging...so there will be quite a few pics here. On September 19th, we went out to Chino Latinos' for my brother Lances' B-day...he was the Big 30! It was Lance, Juliana, my mom, Eric, Matt and I...Brian had to work =( Here is Lance and Juliana...they like to be silly sometimes! My mom and Eric... Matt and I... Saturday night (Sept. 20th), Lance and some of his friends headed out to do a pub crawl. Matt went along, and of course needed a costume. He custom made Lance and him helmets and they wore them along with painter suits. He just totally cracks me up, and he is soooooo creative. I told him he will be making our childrens' halloween costumes for sure. I have yet to see pics of Lance in his outfit but here is Matt!! On the 23rd my mom and I headed to Duluth so that I could get a hair and makeup trial, we had fun! This is the only picture I can show you because I wouldn't want Matt to see what my hair will be like...gotta ke...
