Thanks so much for visiting a little piece of my world! This blog will have updates on recent photo shoots that I have done, as well as photos from my personal life.
A little about me.....I was born and raised on a farm in South Dakota but now I currently live in the Minneapolis area. Growing up on a farm with a dad who loved to take pictures was definitely my inspiration to go into photography. I have always been a people person and I love watching relationships between people, whether it be a mom and dad with their family or two couples in love, it all makes me giddy inside :-) I love to have fun and have always been a happy go lucky kinda girl. Some of the things that make me happy are....my son, the smell of the rain, fresh mountain air, a trickling stream, the sound of a belly laugh, fresh baked cookies, planting flowers and watching them grow, skittles, a good board game with some competition, coffee, warm sand on my feet, and the peace that God gives me.
I hope that you enjoy looking at the pictures on my blog. They are what make my day brighter and my life truly blessed. Thank you for visiting!

"Find something in every day that makes your heart SMILE!!"
I met Jordan and Steph for the first time last week and wow, they are so perfect for each other. They seem to know each other so well and everything just seems so right, just like two peas in a pod. Once again….I had a great time capturing the love between the two of them and I can’t wait to photograph their fun winter wedding!!
I always love it when someone from my hometown asks me to photograph their wedding. South Dakota weddings hold a special place in my heart. Jamie and I had such a fun time, and Dan and Lacey were pretty much down for everyone of our silly ideas. I love it when the bride and groom are laid back on their wedding day and willing to just roll with it. Thanks so much for letting us photograph your special day, I wish you both nothing but love and happiness!! PS I might have gotten carried away, there are a lot of images in this post. ENJOY
What can I say….these two were a joy to photograph and so sooooo in LOVE!! They are going to be such great parents and I can’t wait to meet their baby boy! 


Maybe it is my upbringing but I can’t get enough of barns out in the country and the character they bring to photos. I think I am going to make a book on old barns. I am sure someone already has done that, but that would be a fun project
I wonder if I will ever get yelled at for trespassing. I guess all the good photographers always say it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission
Thought you all would like to see this fun family and how the barn adds so much to the photos. Even though it was 100 degrees out with 200% humidity, we got some awesome shots! 



Even though the day was a little rainy, we still managed to get some great pictures. Paul and Carla, you were such a fun couple to work with, thanks for having us photograph your big day! I wish you nothing but the best in the years to come! 

This little guy was a charm to photograph. He was such a trooper and I ended up getting some really fun shots of him. His parents ran their first marathons last year and after they got done running the marathon, she found out she was pregnant so they ended up naming him miles since he is already a marathon baby
How cute is that?? I stopped by TCRC before the photo shoot to grab the little shoes you see in the photos below. My friend Adam owns the store and I knew he had little baby running shoes from when he was a kid, so he let me borrow them for the day. I am sure Miles will be a standout runner someday, can’t wait to see what his little future holds.
Their day started out with a pretty wicked thunderstorm and right as we were starting their first look, the sun decided to come out and the rest of the day was perfect. They got married at the Nazareth Chapel on the campus of Northwestern and it was gorgeous! Such a great location with super cool architecture. Bret and Angie were such a fun couple to work with, super laid back and totally in love!! They are going to have a fun and exciting life together! Thanks so much for letting me be part of your special day! Oh and thank you to Tasha from Red Bird Hills for assisting me.
I am so glad that she can call me auntie. Tessa is a total girly girl and she can bring a smile to anyone in her presence. She has such a fun, spunky personality and I could probably go on and on with stories about her and what she says. We always have so much fun when we hang out and she is probably the most inquisitive little girl I have ever met. She definitely keeps her mommy and daddy on their toes! Have a happy weekend everybody!!
Adam and Julia have such a fun, down to earth love for each other, and it definitely showed on their big day. I love it when couples don’t stress on their wedding day and just go with the flow, makes for one stress free, happy day. Adam and Julia, you two are perfect for each other. I wish you nothing but the best!
