A few weeks back I met with Sarah and Jason and Jason’s sister, Christine, to photograph their little ones as Sarah and Christine wanted some pics of the cousins for a Mothers Day present. You may remember Sarah and Jason’s kids from our last session, taken when little Elias was just a wee babe! After quite a bit of bribing with jelly beans and playground promises, and a lot of patience from the wee ones, we ended up with some fabulous shots! Getting four children engaged at the same time is a challenge, but no joke, these are four fantastic kids!!!










I couldn’t help myself on this next one… Elias, Calvin and Sophia just look so…. concerned about poor Oden! Love it!

A few weeks ago, I ventured over to St. Paul for a session with Baby Elias and family in their super cute home on the most perfect little street! I just love St. Paul, always have…. maybe because I grew up East of the river, or maybe because my high school besties’ super cool first college apartment was just off Grand Ave, or maybe just because it’s a magical little city with adorable neighborhoods and the best dessert place EVER! (Cafe Latte, of course – have you tried their lemon creme torte? TO DIE FOR, I’m telling you – go NOW – you won’t be sorry!!)
I digress. Not only did I have a great time shooting little Elias, but I also got to play trains with big brother, Calvin. Calvin LOVES trains. And cars, and helicopters, planes…. We had a blast! My favorite part about this ‘job’ is getting to bond with my clients. Taking a time out to play in the sand or check out some toys or talk about the Jonas Brothers is a sure way to build some trust and ultimately capture better photos.
(plus, I get to have FUN in the process.) :)

Baby Elias has the thickest mop of spiked out hair I’ve ever seen on a baby, and I LOVE IT!!! Seriously, I could’ve played with his hair all day; every time Elias’ mom smoothed it down, I was right behind her spiking it back up. (I’m mean like that, but really, it made for much better photos…I swear.)
