Addink Children

The Addinks are college friends of ours. Within 4 years of marraige, Hannah (2), Eli (1), and Navalia (3 weeks) came along. They are sweet kids and Hannah and Lydia are buddies.

Chaffin Family

The Chaffin's are an amazing family! They are so genuine and real! They have adopted three of their five children and they are all so closely knit. We took photos of their family on such a cold day, although you'd never know it! The kids did a great job of acting "warm" although the temp was about 30! I think the entire shoot took us a whole 20 minutes, I think that was about all we could handle!

Shooting location: Kelly Farm: Elk River, MN

Hyster Family

Tis the season for family photos! The Hyster family brought me to the Como Conservatory a few days before Thanksgiving. The mums were in full bloom which was a beautiful fall backdrop. Check out these cutie girls! No, they are not sisters, just cousins! They both were full smiles and grins as we played around in the flowers and the paths!

Shooting location: Como Conservatory; St. Paul, MN
