Noelle | Minneapolis Newborn Photographer

Baby Noelle came to the studio for her newborn photos not long ago.  Mom and Dad decided not to find out the sex of the baby until she was born.  What an awesome surprise to welcome a little girl to the family!  She is joining two beautiful big brothers already at home who truly adore her.  They were so sweet and loving to her at her session.  Noelle is on my Babycakes plan which means that I get to photograph her two more times over the next year and a half!  I LOVE getting to watch babies grow over the first year of their life.  I can’t wait to see this beautiful family again.

Eleanor | Minneapolis Baby Photographer

I photographed Eleanor’s milestone session this summer.  She was joined by her mom and dad as well as her big sisters!  This family reminds me so much of my own…one young sibling with two big siblings who simply love and adore her! I loved watching Eleanor’s eyes light up when her big sisters played with her.  The joy she brings the entire family is so obvious.  We photographed Eleanor’s session at Harriet Island Regional Park.  This is the same park that I photographed Katie and Jeff’s wedding pictures about 4 years ago:)  It was so fun to be back there again now that sweet Eleanor has joined their family.  Here are a few of my favorite images from Eleanor’s 8 month session.

The H Family | Minneapolis Family Photographer

This was my second time photographing this beautiful family, and the first time since baby brother arrived.  We decided on photographing the session in my backyard after they had seen previous sessions photographed there.  I’m so glad we did!  Not only does it make a gorgeous backdrop, but having the swing set 10 feet away makes a nice little incentive for the kids too!  Josie and Julian played on the swing set while I photographed Mom and Dad 😉  I think everyone enjoyed a couple minutes of downtime during the session.  We had a beautiful evening and I love the images we captured!  I hope you enjoyed our session as much as I did H family!Minneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family PhotographerMinneapolis Family Photographer

Eden | Minneapolis Newborn Photographer

Beautiful baby Eden is the newest addition to my friend Lindsey.  Lindsey and I were roommates in college and it was SO much fun getting to catch up after not seeing each other for a few years!  She was joined at the session by her other children Elle and William.  Unfortunately, Dad had food poisoning and was at home sick during our session.  I just love the images we captured during Eden’s session. We wanted the session to be mostly neutral with a bit of a girly touch.  I think we achieved it perfectly!  Lindsey, your kids are gorgeous, and so well behaved!  I had so much fun photographing the 4 of you!  Hopefully next time I can get your entire family in front of my camera!Minneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn PhotographerMinneapolis Newborn Photographer

Greyson | Minneapolis Newborn Photographer

I was honored to photograph baby boy #2 for this beautiful family!  I first met them 2 years ago when I photographed Devan’s maternity photos and later big brother Lincoln’s newborn pictures.  They came back with baby Greyson and it was so fun to see how much Lincoln has grown over the past couple years.  As you can see, Greyson is just as cute as can be; just like his big brother. It’s no surprise these boys are gorgeous, especially when you see their beautiful parents!  I felt like I was photographing models!  I don’t think they can take a bad picture.  I know I say it all the time, but I really feel like I photograph the most beautiful people!  Devan and Nick, it was wonderful seeing you again and working with you to capture your family of 4!!!!
