You Make Everything Glorious

                   It’s been a tough few days here at the studio, but no matter what the struggles we face, children always brighten the day here. Kids are completely inspiring with their endless questions, fearless minds and open loving hearts. Here are a few of the angels I met with yesterday…

Time Stopped

You’re never too old or to young to have your portrait taken. It’s never too late or too early to be photographed. Many people have asked me over the years “When is the best time to be photographed (for seniors, for families for _fill in the blank_).” They ask me as if there is a special time of year that everyone else does it. The good news is… Today is the best day. Get out there and make some memories, take your kids on a nature walk, visit a grandparent, chat with a neighbor, and record it on film. None of us know what tomorrow will bring, and sometimes tomorrow means hardships, struggles and sad news you can’t control. So use today as a time to create , to capture something that only you can. You have the power to stop time, even if only for a brief moment, and if you don’t feel comfortable stopping time, call me and I’d be glad to.

Today I wanted to share with you what  A Portrait is: 

  • portrayal: a word picture of a person’s appearance and character
  • any likeness of a person, in any medium;

    GOONIES!

                   Kendall, Kandi, Lucas and I(and others) will be enjoying this beautiful day by ending it at the outdoor movie tonight! If you haven’t heard….tonight outside the civic center(behind the new Hilton) the city of Mankato is playing a movie, along with making pop and popcorn available for only 25 cents.  The movie will start at sundown, so bring your blanket, or favorite lawn chair to cozy up with friends and family. There is no charge for admission, so pick up the neighbor kids and get out of the house!

    If you spot us there be sure to say hello! We’ll have a special treat for any kids that give us high fives before the movie!

    Tonight’s movie is  The Goonies , a movie that thrilled us kids growing up in the 80’s!  Take note the movie does have some language and a scary pirate ship!

    Kids Rock the Studio!

                       So many sweet faces to share with you today! Each of them with his or her precious little unique story of life. A few of these children were just born and a few ready to take on the world, but each of them made me smile.

    It’s always an honor to me when parents choose us to photograph their kids. I see it as an opportunity to bring out the best in someone, to learn what makes then happy, giggle, and jump for joy. Here are some images of the precious children I met with this past week….
