Last week I had a great session with Lindsey, her mom, and 2 of her friends. On our way to St.Paul we stopped at a Caribou Coffee and I ran into a client that I worked with last year. (Chelsea, October 2008) Because I only work with 1 client per day (2 if I get backed up due to weather), I can actually remember the people I’ve worked with. In most cases I can rattle off what we did on a particular session, what they wore, and what they were going to do for school. Read more.. »

Last week when I returned from LA I had a session with Kayla. Kayla is a student at Coon Rapids High School. One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is getting to know new families, and in the case of Coon Rapids I’ve been getting to know a huge cluster of families. Each of the students come to their session with an entourage of friends, which makes for a fun time. Read more.. »

Last Saturday morning I had a great session with Megan. It was one of those classic crisp fall days as we started in Minneapolis around 9:30. Everything was still a little damp as the sun started to slowly warm everything. Lucky for us there was very little wind where we were shooting. With Megan’s amazing head of hair I was very thankful for the day we had. Read more.. »

From time to time a graduating high school senior comes through my door who makes me tilt my head and go… “huh?” Every session starts at my place with a consultation, usually a week or so before the actual session. It’s a time for us to get to know each other and for me to learn what makes each person tick. Read more.. »
