Sweet Newborn Portraits {Grand Meadow MN Newborn Portraits}

Posted in Newborns

Sweetest newborn baby girl H! Creating beautiful heirloom photos that will last a lifetime!

Baby H came to hang out in the studio in Spring Valley, MN for a newborn session and she was just a dream. I can’t believe she let us pose her every which way with hardly a peep. This whole session just flew by. Time flies when you’re having fun!

I know that Mom and Dad will cherish these pictures for years to come. The photos are beyond precious and will help everyone to remember this time when Miss H was new and happiest in the arms of her parents. And I know the photo of her with her Dad with him in his uniform will be a favorite of the entire family for many, many years. So perfect!

Senior Session {Spring Valley MN Senior Photographer}

Posted in Seniors

Senior season is off to an incredible start with this amazing session shot in Spring Valley, MN.

I enjoy working with senior guys as much as the girls and I think they want amazing senior photos just as much as the girls do but don’t say it! And, not in the same way. They may not start pinning ideas their Freshmen year like some girls do or shop for months for the perfect outfit, but at the end of the day, guys also want a session that is a reflection of who they are and what they love. And, of course, they want to look cool and feel confident in the process.

Kaden is no different. Heck when he was in for Spring Sports photos, he was teasing me that he wasn’t going to do photos and if he did he’d have a friend take them with a cell phone. lol I knew that wouldn’t fly and I’d be seeing him this summer. And we did.

For Kaden’s session, we bounced around to a couple of different areas in Spring Valley and ended the night at the basketball court which felt like a natural choice since it’s where Kaden spends a lot of his time. We had a fun night laughing with Kaden and he was a good sport with taking the photos for his Mom. Thanks, Kaden for putting up with us that night 😉 It was fun!!

Senior Guy with Guitar {Racine MN Senior Photographer}

Posted in Seniors

This past year I got to work with some very awesome Senior Guys. They were so relaxed and I really enjoyed working with them. One of the fun things about senior portraits is the unique perspective that each senior wants to capture about themselves. Using props from their hobbies always helps adds personality to a portrait and makes it a little unique.

Burkely brought 2 guitars to his session to use for props. We started his session outside around the studio in downtown Spring Valley, MN. During the session, we were talking to him and his Dad about his guitars and found out they had a large collection of guitars at home. So we decided to go to their home and do some photos in their backyard to capture more of their collection. Love that we were able to capture him in his element with something he is passionate about. It truly makes his senior portraits unique.

Also if you have a child or are an adult looking to learn to play the guitar or ukulele, Burkely is giving lessons this summer. You can find more information on Lessons with Burkely summer classes and privates lessons here: https://www.facebook.com/Lessons-by-Burkely-104588398500342/
