Thanksgiving in Tennessee

I had a lot to be thankful for this holiday, Jon has returned from Uganda Africa, my mom is around to enjoy the family, and we will have a new member added to the family-Alice.

I will add pictures of Alice once she arrives in the USA-maybe 6-10 months from now.

Ernst family

Isn't it obvious how much fun this family will have at Christmas this year?

Izzabelle and her daddy

Izzabelle will be missing her daddy while he's off to boot camp. Sometimes memories are hard to capture, but I'll bet her daddy will enjoy having a picture of his little doll while he's away.

Old news?

A couple of weeks ago this band of artists visited the SOFA SHOW in Chicago. When it comes to personal photography it tends to take a back seat.. thus this is not a timely post, but still FUN.

Guess what the biggest present for mommy will be.

congratulations to Eric and Jessica.

Minneapolis Wedding Photographers | Kyle & Holly

I'm already thinking about what to bring in January for the wedding of Holly and Kyle. I am sure it will be a rest from the cold and blustery weather of Minnesota. I can feel the sun on my skin and the sand between my toes.

Minneapolis Wedding Photographers | Arron & Nicole

Aaron and Nicole are looking forward to a Green Bay wedding in 2010. We are assured this will be a wedding boasting of Fun, Family, and Laughs.

Put on your hat and straighten your antlers

the holidays are approaching rapidly! Oh what a fun Christmas it will be in Brianna's and Kaylas's household.

Way to start the day...

I wish I could work with images I have taken more often, but time just does not permit me to make artistic decisions and treatments to the photos. Last night Charlie and I played around with some of the images. Feel FREE TO CRITIQUE.

Inspired by our colleagues

Last night a "Collection" of photographers met to share stories, ideas, and comradeship.

One of our colleagues sent me a site that inspired me to take some time for my own work and ideas. I thought I would share this image, shot from a moving vehicle, this young African farmer caught off guard, by the American voyeur in his land.

Tyler

The light was so good all day long, and we had the best models today. Tyler had a great shoot, it will be hard to decide what pictures to choose.

Oh Glorious DAY...

... the Photo Gods were with us--- weather wise, and subject wise! Megan was So much fun to photograph, and mom was just a delight. Thank you, we enjoyed our time with you today.

Landon

Landon is an expert at bubbles and sucking on his fists..he's also a pro at being CUTE.

Is it Christmas YET!????

Gobblins, pumpkins, and family

This family shoot ended with a light note of kids and costumes!
