Capturing this family’s pictures is something I look forward to every year. Not only are they so cute, but they’re equally as much fun as they are adorable. And this year… I got to help them announce something pretty exciting (see the very end of the post!). Thank you, Cole’s, for letting me come hang out for the last six years! – Kelley
Read MoreI didn’t do as many seniors as usual this year (instead more families!), so I was looking forward to Micayla’s session… and she didn’t disappoint ;) We had some fun locations and I loved her outfit choices! Micayla, thanks so much for choosing me to do your photos; I hope you’re enjoying your senior year and I’m excited to see what God has planned for your future! – Kelley
Read MoreThe Anderson’s all gathered from a few different states for a few weeks of family time up at Gull Lake, and while they were here they had me over to capture some family portraits. They recently had a new little addition to the family, so they wanted an updated picture while everyone was together. It was great to meet you all! Thanks again for having me capture your time together! – Kelley

Little Curtis has now made his appearance, and a updated shoot of the family of five will be on this blog sometime soon as well! For now, enjoy this adorable family! – Kelley
Read MoreBrandon and Paige are getting married next August. We did a few shots at the gorgeous gardens where their ceremony will be, and after their engagement session and hearing some of their ideas for the wedding I’m even more excited to be a part of it! Thanks for being such an easy going couple to work with… Looking forward to your celebration next year! – Kelley
Read MoreBrandon and Scarlett are good friends of mine (Scarlett is my buddy who is always hungry with me. haha), and so it was tons of fun to be able to capture their wedding day. Even though it was a nice warm July day, they had a lovely ceremony in Crosslake with a gorgeous reception at the Whitefish Lodge down the road. I love when couples are up for a grabbing a few extra images between the ceremony and reception like these two were… because the images that we took at the Lodge are some of my favorite! Thank you, Mr and Mrs Langenfeld, for letting me be a special part of your day! It’s fun to see you enjoying marriage :) – Kelley

I was lucky to shoot some senior photos for her, and she also was sweet enough to allow me to shoot my promo video at the same time!

Read MoreI am finally getting around to catching up on blogging… portrait sessions are slowing down for the year, and my next wedding isn’t until the end of January! This was a combination family/promotional session, because many of these lovely people are musicians too! Just the other day I saw one of these pictures in the local newspaper advertising a concert of theirs. :) Thank you so much for choosing me for your session, Schimp family! – Kelley
