Ryan and Alisha got married this past August at the Arrowwood Lodge in Baxter. After having a sweet ceremony, they moved into the reception room to celebrate. You could see that these two really value each other and get along so well. I also appreciated how much the two of them cared about the people around them on their day. Alisha, you were such a radiant bride, and the two of you were absolutely wonderful to work with! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder! -Kelley

Read MoreI know I say this every year, but I just love photographing this family! I’ve gotten to take their images annually since the youngest was just a new little baby. The kids always remember me, and enjoy showing me all the new things around their place… this year the highlight was the trampoline, which ended up providing some adorable pictures :) Thanks again for inviting me out, Cole Family! -Kelley
Read MoreDezmond was the ring bearer in a wedding I shot earlier this year… And he was quite the little man in a tux. But he looks just as good in his baseball cap, on his trike :) We hung out in honor of his 2nd birthday, and did lots of little boy stuff!

Read MoreI’m blessed to call this gorgeous lady and her equally adorable kiddos my cousins. When Jayme asked if I’d be willing to come down and take their family pictures, of course I was super excited! :) The kids picked the location, because the creek is their favorite place to play. We also had some fun when we got back to their place and realized that the sprinklers had come on. Thanks for letting me hang out and capture your fam, Jayme. Love you guys! Kelley
Read MoreMegan is a Pequot Lakes Senior, but came my way for her senior pictures because she wanted some at the Staples depot. I was super excited to see all the props she’d brought with her, and we had some fun at all the different sites. Thanks for being so much fun to work with, and such a gorgeous model, Megan!
Read MoreMark and Rhonda got married on an absolutely gorgeous day early in August. Surrounded by their kids and grandkids, they said their heartfelt I do’s, next to the beautiful Gull Lake. Even though I was there for just a short time, I was so glad I got to capture the new Mr. and Mrs. Cornell. Thank you so much for including me in your day, you ( and your families!) were a joy to work with. Congratulations! Kelley
