St. Paul Portrait Photographer / Samien and Jason

This past fall I took some portraits of Samien and Jason and their kids.  Samien and Jason had a lot of fun with these photos as you can see from the looks on their faces.  Thank you Samien and Jason and your kids for taking a cold afternoon and making it warm.

St. Paul Wedding Photographer / Livin' the Dream, Elisa and Rob

I've known Rob and Elisa for several years.  In fact, I worked with Rob for a few years at a restaurant.  When working with Rob, I would ask "How's it going?"  and he would reply "Livin' the dream."  I know that he wouldn't always mean it, but he always had a great outlook on things.

A few days after their wedding, Rob said, "I can now say "Livin' the Dream" and mean it. I'm with my wife, on the bike, in the mountains."  This time, I know he really meant it.

Elisa and Rob, it was an honor to have spent the day with you both and to photograph your wedding.

A special moment....

Elisa and Rob, I know you both will always be "Livin' the Dream" with each other. Congratulations!

Cottage Grove Photographer / Maternity Photos

I recently did a maternity photo shoot with someone I worked with years ago.  We haven't seen each other for years and all of a sudden I'm taking photos of her belly.  We thought that it would be kind of weird, but as it turned out, it didn't seem like years, only days since we last saw each other.

Cottage Grove Photographer / Hello...

I've been toying with the idea of starting a blog and now have finally decided to start it.  I'm not sure how things will go and I still have to learn about this, but I hope you find some things interesting as we go on this adventure.  I will try to post some photos that I have worked on and let you know of things that may be coming up.
