Tea Party for 3 {SE MN Children’s Portrait Photographer}

I had a blast creating and setting up all the details for this portrait session for these 3 little girls… buying new props and redoing the chairs we already had to make them match our color scheme…. and the photos, oh my gosh, so, so cute!

We had so much fun having the tea party, too. Making this session even more special, one of the little girls is visiting MN from Germany. I am so happy I was able to preserve this moment for them and their parents.

P.S. All 3 of these dresses are available at the studio to use for sessions, too.se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-10se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-1se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-2se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-3se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-11se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-4se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-5se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-8se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-12se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-9se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-6se-mn-children's-portrait-photographer-7

Business Team Portraits {Stewartville MN Business Portrait Photographer}

It was about two and half year ago that I found out at my 6 month dental appointment that my dentist was going to retire.  I have known Dr. Weinhold my entire life as his youngest daughter and I had been in the same class and he had been my dentist since I was about 7.  I teased him when he told me as we had had a conversation about retiring at my last appointment and he had told me it would be awhile.  He then told who was going to be taking over his practice.  And low and behold the new dentist, Dr. Lechnar, was married to another one of my classmate’s siblings.  Love being from a small town and having ties to so many people in the community.

Dr. Lechnar also just  happened to  stop in that day, so I got to meet him quickly and put a face to his name. Getting a new dentist can be nerving, but Dr. Weinhold had total trust in him, so I wasn’t nervous at all.  Anyway, fast forward, and Dr. Lechnar of Root River Dental has now been my dentist for 2 years and him and his team are absolutely great!

Dr. Lechnar and his team had us take some team portraits and headshots to update their website. We had such a good time, I wanted to share some of my favorites from their session to celebrate their their 2 year anniversary.
