Happy Veteran’s Day! {Southeast Minnesota Portrait Photographer}

Today, I hope we all take a moment to thank a Veteran for their service.

In honor of Veteran’s Day, I wanted to feature some of my clients who have served or are currently serving.  If you’re a Veteran, thank you. Let’s not forget the sacrifices of those who are serving or  have served and their families! Thank you for your service.. I appreciate it to no end.

If you know a Veteran, tell them I said thank you.

Halloween Night {Spring Valley MN Portrait Photographer}

Gosh!  What a fun night!  Still am in shock and awe over the turnout we  had at the studio on Friday night. At one point when I happened to turn around and saw the line going out to the front room, I was absolutely amazed by the turn out even though it was so cold outside.  Each year, I think, how can we top last year?  This year will be a BIG challenge to top next year!

A HUGE thank you to everyone that came into the studio on Halloween night to help raise some money for Spring Valley Park & Rec, to check out the studio all decked out for Halloween, a treat and some games. We truly appreciate the support and hope you had as much fun as we did setting it up.

The final tally for the funds raised for Spring Valley Park & Rec is $950!!!!! Wow!  You all rock!  Thank you!

Also, a big thank you to Steph at Chateau de Chic for doing my make up for the night, my assistants and friends for putting in about 50 hours this year in total decorating and moving stuff in and out of the studio, and my Aunt Sandy Bauer for dressing up as Kristoff and helping everyone fill out their order form. Lastly a big thank you to my Aunt Lynn and Uncle Marvin Brandt for letting me borrow some of their Halloween stuff to deck out the studio once again.

With all that said, here’s a video of just some of the sights and sounds at the studio on Halloween.   Enjoy!

 

My adorable cousins!

Holiday Mini Sessions {SE MN Portrait Photographer}

Santa is coming and  giving out cookies to good little girls and boys! He has treats for pets too!

Come & meet Santa in your Christmas best or pajamas and get to know him with a  candid conversation, going over their Christmas list, seeing whether they’ve been naughty or nice, eating cookies, reading a book, or playing.  Best of all you will be able to skip the long wait in mall lines!

Join us in the studio for  a magical experience in his toy workshop!

Halloween {Spring Valley MN Portrait Photographer}

Halloween is right around the corner….. Can’t wait to see everyone in their great costumes, watch the kids play the games and check out all the Halloween decorations in the studio.

In 2010, we started opening the studio for Halloween photos, and with the community’s support we were able to help raise over $1,700 the last 4 years with 100% of the proceeds going straight to Spring Valley Park & Rec! Each year the proceeds have grown and we hope it continues this year as well!

Here’s a video of the studio decorated last year….

We are also beyond excited for everyone to see our costumes this year!

With that all said, here’s the info for this year…. Hope to see you there!
