Jess & Mark 6.9.07

I was given the opportunity to photograph my friend Jess and Mark's wedding in Carlton. This was my first "official' solo wedding (although I did have help from my wonderful gopher and soon to be husband Matthew :) Jess and Mark were the perfect couple to start out my photography in weddings, they were great! :)





Strike a pose :)




This is one of my favorite moments of the day- Jess' cousin Joey was telling his grandmother that she "smelled like an old ladies closet" Jess' grandma was speechless!

Monica & Corie May 19th 2007

In May I shadowed my first wedding- Matt's cousin Monica had her wedding at the Blaisdell Mansion in Minneapolis. It was beautiful! I loved that I was able to be a part of her day.










I love the lighting on this photograph.

Back in Feburary I was given the opportunity to photograph my boss' daughter. This was the first time I had photographed a baby, and to be quite honest- I was very nervous! I never realized how hard it could be to photograph a child, especially when they are constantly moving! Even though it was a challenge I was very happy with how the photographs turned out. I am really enjoying photographing people in their environment instead of in front of a backdrop. I think it really captures the moment and personality of the person. It is very exciting! :)

a new blog :)

Hello everyone!

So I have decided to try something new. I was getting tired of the way my photographs look on facebook.. becuase they do not look like that! This way I can talk about what I am doing, and let everyone have a glimpse of my work! Photography & design has became an addiction, I love how I am constantly learning something new through each project that I do.

enjoy!
