Casi: Bonus Senior Photos

Casi is the lovely daughter of my boss, Bobbie.  She had some studio photos taken for school, but wanted some fun photos to use to send out graduation announcements.  We made plans to take pictures at a cute park close to work.  That day started off sunny and then moved quickly to cloudy and stormy.  We decided to venture out anyway, knowing that a few of our locations were under the cover of trees.  Luckily, the weather cleared up in the first 15 or 20 minutes and we had some beautiful colors and a gorgeous blue sky!

Casi was up for leaning against damp bridges, cleaning rain and bird poo off of fences, and trying out frames and jumping in a sundress.  It certainly made for some beautiful photos!



   

















































Thanks, Casi!

Miss Claire - Six Months Old

Claire turned six months just a few days before I made the trek to Stacy, MN to hang out with 

Claire, Caroline, and Matt.  Caroline is an old coworker of mine, so I was thrilled to catch up with her 

and meet little Miss Claire!  You can tell that by the end of our afternoon together, Claire was tired of 

being fluffed and posed!  At least she held out for a few great shots :)

   

Victoria and Phil

"It's easier for two people to pull their red Radio Flyer wagon together than separately."  Despite the rainy morning, this wedding day turned out to be almost as lovely as the wedding itself!  Here are my favorite shots from their wedding day, May 21, 2011. 

Congratulations, Victoria and Phil!


   

Victoria and Phil

You never know when life will bring you happiness......!  Sometimes it's right in front of you or in the pew next to you at church.  Victoria and Phil are both part of my Parkway family and were gracious enough to choose me as their wedding photographer.  We met on one of the wonderful spring days that we had in April and were able to take some great pictures in and outdoors!  Phil's son Andy and his partner Kim were just finishing breakfast at his house when I arrived, so we snuck some family photos in, too.


   

Angela Needed Senior Pictures

Angela is a lovely young lady whom I go to church with.  She is a Senior this year in Hopkins and therefore needed some Senior Pictures!  This fall we had talked about pictures, and she had said that she thought pictures in the snow would be fabulous.  Turns out she was right!  We headed out for just a short while because the snow was falling and the temperatures were dropping.  She braved a slippery underpass, a snowbank, and even the frigid temps without her coat.....

Happy Senior Year, Angela!
