Every year @minnesotabride does a Best Of recognizing local wedding professionals. Since I LOVE supporting local and HATE gatekeeping, I decided to write a blog post for MY OWN Best Of list just for you. You being a newly engaged couple, a curious supporter of the arts or a fellow vendor.
You can view the blog post below or find it at the link in my bio. While you're there, you can also vote yourself. Voting for me could help me be recognized and could result in me attending a fancy gala I have no business being at in the fall.

I love the people and places in MN so much. Continue to spread the love within our community, do what you are capable of to support our friends and neighbors and most importantly find ways to take care of yourself today.
OH and:
ICE OUT!
An accidental portrait of Meg on her wedding day that I think just became one of my favorite images ever. It's these unpredictable, unexpected moments captured in a fleeting moment that I live for. Meg and Adam. Saint Paul, MN. 2024.
It's my best friend's birthday and every year I sift through thousands of photos and videos of our memories together and it makes me laugh and smile but also makes me a bit sad. We don't get to see one another enough and that's not fair but someday we will live in the same country, in the same time zone, maybe even in the same city. I love you @johannaemysv so much and am thankful for every new year we grow older. Happy birthday my Swedish Princess!
I've been digging through the portrait archives and found these photos of Bei from my old studio - circa 2018….?! I am proud of these film shots and feel they haven't aged a day even though it's been 8 years. I've also been obsessed with the color red for sometime now and I think I should organize another shoot with the theme being RED. Thoughts?
My friend Gene, a local real estate agent certified in old homes needed some updated headshots to showcase "growing out his hair for the first time in his life." His words. He looks freaking cool as heck and deserves all the compliments. If you're in the market for a new home, follow @_genepease . If you're in the market for updates headshots - reach out or stay tuned for my next mini session date.
ANNOUNCEMENT!
I am hosting mini sessions this coming Sunday, April 26th from 12-6 pm at @mothoddities studio. I only offer these indoor studio sessions a few times in the spring season. I will have multiple vignettes set up with one pop of surprise color! I'm excited to play and create more beautiful portraits. Hope to see you there!
