Happy New Year!

I just wanted to wish everyone a safe and Happy New Year!  I will be heading up to Lake of the Woods with my husband and some friends for our fourth annual ice fishing/New Years party at Sportsman's Lodge.  It's lots of fun!  I will be back posting all my latest sneak peeks on Tuesday or Wednesday, so check back then.  I have loads of great new photos to share!

Claire and Emma

Claire and Emma were naturals in front of the camera!  They had such cute rooms with lots of color, and I loved their bright winter hats.  We went outside for a few shots but it was quite windy and cold.  They still smiled through chattering teeth and even gave each other a hug to keep warm--both inside and out!

Dylan, Ella, and Emma!

First off--I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!  Ours went great.  We had lots of family and great food and tons of fun.  Of course now it's time to get back to business! 

I left off posting more sessions I had right before Christmas, and this family was a blast with a set of twin girls and their big brother.  We played at the house for a little bit and then drove to a neighbors place where there were lots of trees and neat barns and even a covered bridge.  These kids were tough, as the session was towards the end of the day when the sun started going down and it got MUCH colder!  We all survived, even with cold fingers and toes.  Here are some of my favorites!

Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  Thank you to all of my wonderful clients for making this such an amazing year for me.  I truly appreciate each and every one of you!  I look forward to another great year and hope to be seeing all of you again soon.  I also wanted to share our family Christmas card with you, and also a few shots of our home all ready for the holidays.  We're hosting both of our families this year!

Alexis, Zachary, and Jade

I had another wonderful snowy outdoor session with this family on a beautiful farm, complete with a fabulous red barn!  They couldn't have matched more, and it really looked nice together.  I even took my favorite "throwing leaves" pose I usually do in the fall, and we used snow instead!  We had so much fun!

It was definitely a winter wonderland in this family's backyard!  Freshly fallen snow + frost = a photographer's dream.  We stayed outdoors as long as we could with the little ones, exploring the woods, and then dad even brought out a few snowmobiles.  Next we went inside to warm up and I took some fun shots of each of the kids in their bedrooms, which were colorful, bright, and fun!  Here are a few of my picks!

Keegan, Rylie, Tucker, and Brynlee

I had a great time with these kids!  It was a very white and frosty day, so we ventured outdoors to get some of the pretty evergreens in the background for a few shots.  I also toured their house and there were plenty of bright rooms to photograph in.  I love the first shot of Brynlee--babies make such cute/silly faces!

Shane and Kayla - 12.15.07

Shane and Kayla, who you first met when I took their engagement pictures this fall, had a pretty winter wedding with a little bit of a fairytale theme--I loved their beautiful castle cake top!  Shane even brought out his snowmobile for a few unique shots!  It was a lot of fun, even though we were all pretty cold by the time we headed back inside!  Here are some of my favorites...

Jay and Stephanie - 12.14.07

Jay and Stephanie had a beautiful winter evening wedding, surrounded by candles, poinsettias, and of course family and friends!  After the ceremony we headed over to the North Dakota Museum of Art for the reception.  It was a beautiful spot, with plenty of great live music and food!  I especially loved their favors--little hand made birds!

McRay, Connor, and Elias

These boys are growing up fast!  I last saw them a year ago in October at the park, but this time it was a little to cold to play in the leaves!  We settled for a quick run outside towards the end of the session, complete with some warm and fun hats.  It was fun to see them again, and they are as busy as ever!  Here are some of my picks...
