{Dana and Ethan – Engaged | Pillager, MN Engagement Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | February 1, 2017

These two… so perfectly photogenic. It’s so much fun getting to do friends engagement session, watching them interact with the person they love so much! Ethan and Dana brought me back to the place where he first asked her to be his girlfriend, and where he proposed. :D I’m SO thankful you two let me capture both your engagement season and your wedding day! Look for pictures from their Pinterest perfect September wedding on the blog here soon! -Kelley

{Serpico Extended Family | Nisswa Mn Family Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 30, 2017

The Serpico family was in Nisswa for a wedding, and capitalized on the occasion of them all being together and dressed up… and invited me out for a portrait session. They’ve got a great cabin on an area lake and it made for the perfect location! Thank you Serpico family, for letting me capture you all together! -Kelley

{The Grove Family | Sebeka MN Family Lifestyle Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 27, 2017

Yes, I’ve said it before but I just love when families invite me to their home and incorporate their everyday life into their session. The Grove family did just that, and the resulting images are unique to them! Enjoy these pictures from their ranch! Grove family, thank you for having me out for the third year! -Kelley

{Seanay and Ben – Engaged | Nisswa, MN Engagement Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 26, 2017

Although it means that I’m wayyy behind blogging, I’m loving looking at all these sessions from warmer days! Not only are Seanay and Ben quite cute together, they were also game for anything I suggested, like heading to the top of the local ski hill! Thanks for putting up with all my suggestions, and letting me capture this season of your life! Also, if you think these pictures are cute… wait until you see their wedding pictures (coming soon, I promise!). -Kelley

{Mr and Mrs Furhman | Crosslake, MN Wedding Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 25, 2017

Sarah and Isaac became Mr. and Mrs. Furhman last May at the Pine Peaks event center in Crosslake. Despite the fact that it was snowing the night of the rehearsal (!!!), the weather warmed up and they had beautiful sunshine for their outdoor wedding. Everything from the setting, to the people there, to Sarah wearing her mother’s hat from her wedding day, was gorgeous. Thank you both for letting me be a part of it all! -Kelley

{DeCent Extended Family | Brainerd Lakes Area Family Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 23, 2017

This session was so much fun! I love letting kids be kids, and capture all the joy and zeal they have for life. These cousins reminded me off all the good times I had with my own cousins when I was younger. DeCent family, thank you so much for allowing me to shoot your family session and hang out with the kiddos! -Kelley

{The Cole Family | Motley, MN Family Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 20, 2017

I’ve been blessed enough to photograph this family for the past six years or so, and watch the kids grow. This year little Sarah was added to the family! I have so much fun with these kids, and we always have to end our session with them showing me all their new trampoline tricks! Thanks again Cole family!! -Kelley

{Amy and Steven – Engaged | Bay Lake, MN Engagement Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 19, 2017

I may be a tiny bit biased about this session… but I loved it when I shot in last May, and I still love it. But that could be because it’s my sister and her good looking (now) hubby! Like one of my recent post of Heather and Anthony’s ice fishing e-session, I love when couples choose to do something that they love for their session. It makes the images more relaxed, fun, and definitely unique to that couple. Not only did Amy and Steven play cribbage (in their cute house that Steven remodeled!), we also went to the lake for one of their favorite date-night activities, kayaking. And yes, I got in the lake… in the the middle of May. It was cold, but anything for the little sister ;) Love you guys! -Kelley

{Mihn and Audrey – Mr. and Mrs. | Denver, CO Wedding Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 12, 2017

Mihn and Audrey were a military couple that had a small ceremony previously, but were able to have this fun celebration with family and friends in Aurora Colorado. Even though it snowed on their wedding day (April 30th! I thought this only happened in MN! haha), it sure didn’t damper the warm mood of everyone there! And the wedding party braved outside in the blowing snow for pictures. Mihn and Audrey, we could feel how much you cared about the people that were there and that they felt the same way about you too! Thank you so much for allowing me to capture your celebration! -Kelley

{Hunter – Class of 2016 | Pequot Lakes, MN Highschool Photographer}

By Kelley Asbury | January 11, 2017

As I’m finally sharing his pictures, Hunter is already attending Concordia college where he’ll be playing basketball (so of course we had to incorporate some of his Cobber gear into these pictures!). Good luck Hunter, with your first year at Concordia! -Kelley
