Introducing our first Senior Crew Member for the class of 2013. Whitney came in for her mini session so we could give you a sneak peak of what's in store for this year's High School Seniors! We've ordered several new cutting edge backdrops and are in the process of making many more. Check out more of Whitney here.  This happens to be one of my favorites so far from her photographic journey. Be sure to ask

I'm so thrilled to be providing the local hospital with breath taking canvas gallery wrapped prints of newborns and babies to decorate the halls. It makes such a huge difference when you walk down the hallways. I love being able to connect the caregivers with the patients by showing them a family bond that we all share. This is one of the many images you can find up on the third floor of the Bemidji hospital.

My favorite subject to photograph have to be newborn babies. There is just something so captivating about them. Here are a few from baby Marli's session. She brought her big brother with too.

Valerie was so much fun to photograph in her dance outfit. One of my favorite things about working with seniors is that I get to draw from their own personal interests.

Now that things are starting to slow down a bit after the Christmas season, I thought I'd take the time to share a few fun images with a holiday theme. Aveyn looks adorable in my fun holiday hat. Hat created by Elf Co. here in town. They come in adult sizes too!

And this little guy is dreaming of sugar plums I'm sure. Hope you had an amazing holiday with loved ones around you to share in the fun.

I just wanted to take a moment to recognize all the men and women that have served our country. Let's all be thankful for not only what they do but the families that they leave at home. I can only imagine how hard that must be. I get to come home each night and see my family. And I get to sleep safely at night. When I think of all the violence that happens all over the world I feel very grateful that I don't know that kind of fear. So much to be thankful for. So, to all those Veterans out there I thank you.

One of my clients asked me to make a donation to an auction for a little girl with terminal brain tumors. I of course said yes but wanted to do more. When I contacted the family to give my donation I asked them if they would be willing to let me photograph this amazing little girl with her Dad. They said yes. It's an incredible honor to capture the love these two share. Part of being in the business I'm in is giving back to others. This is my gift to Grace.

This isn't just a fun hobby to me or a quick way to make some extra cash. This is about creating lasting images that will be cherished forever. If you know of someone suffering from a terminal illness that I could help with beautiful portraits let me know. (there is no charge for this)
