{Z} - 2013 Red Lake County Central Senior

This session just makes me realize that my kids are going to be grown and out of the house before I know it.  I started babysitting {Z} when he was just a newborn and watched him up until I met Nick.  I am lucky enough to call him my family....I remember just giggling at some of the funny stuff he would do (I better not add it here or he would get mad)  Now he has grown into a great young man and I can't wait to see what his future holds for him!!

Thanks {Z} for choosing me for your senior pictures, I can't believe the difference from the last time I got to capture you and {B}.  They were one of my very first sessions and I hope one day I get to capture his own family ;)

{E} - 2013 Red Lake County Central Senior

This is a long overdue sneak peak...I met up with a couple of friends a couple weeks ago and we traveled the country looking for some fun spots.  I would have to say we definately succeeded in that department.  The pictures speak for themselves!

Thanks {E} for choosing me for your senior pictures...hope you have a blast on your last year!

Sneak Peak - {B}

Some of you may have seen a pre-sneak peak on Facebook already of this beautiful girl but if not..here goes.  This is picture heavy but for as hard as it was to narrow down the pictures for your gallery I think I did pretty well at only this many.  I just love when sessions are that hard to pick ;)
We are so incredibly blessed to have this wonderful family in our lives, they have done so much for us in the years that Nick has been working for them that we could never thank them enough.  I was so excited when they called and asked me to capture some pictures of {B}.  And it was so much more personal, when I know how hard our husbands (and now their kids) work to get these fields in the ground and harvested.  And the next day after this session...all that hard work was gone and in the bins for storage.
Without further rambling, meet {B}...isn't she gorgeous!

And then...one of my favorite spots!

Thanks again for choosing me...it was great to catch up, you would think we would be better at it!  Hope you enjoy them as much as I have!

{H} Family Sneak Peak

One thing that I find very, very fun for me is going to clients houses to shoot a session.  I like that it is a lot more personal that way and it is so amazing how much fun their yards are with all the different landscaping they do.  A fun, fun change of scenery for sure!  I have captured this family quite a few times now, but this is the first time at their house, or even outside for that matter.  Each and every time I get to see beautiful {D} she has changed so much.  Last year I could only get her to smile after asking her to tickle her own belly..this year, what a change!  She was such a poser and was so much fun ;)  Makes my heart just smile when she is smiling because she is just so happy with life...couldn't ask for more.
This is definately a personal picture as her daddy is a farmer so we got to capture her in her normal setting..

And who could pass up these!  A special one with mom... <3 it!  And then we couldn't leave out a tractor picture with dad ;)

Thanks {H} family for letting me invade your yard...I say it everytime I see you that we really need to get together soon, this time I really mean it.
