MiCall and Dante created magic during this session! Lake Eklutna is located north of Anchorage, Alaska, and driving down to the lake meant you lost all cell service, and could find yourself getting very easily turned around and lost. What started as kind of a hectic “where are you?” sort of situation, ended with these […]

Capturing families in their homes, doing what they love, is what storytelling is all about. This session was one Ashley with The Fireside Kind and I had talked about doing for the longest time. This was very unposed with very few prompts, and a great example of how amazing moments can be captured by a […]

Mini sessions this fall did NOT disappoint! I was able to see so many returning faces, and some new ones. It was an uncharacteristically warm day (nearly 85 degrees and sunny!) but we all made the most of it. Thank you to everyone that made it out, and can’t wait for next year!

The perfect way to celebrate the start of October. When Samantha, with Hedin North Farms, reached out to me over the summer about wanting to host a spooky, witchy themed branding session at her homestead farm, I was over-the-moon, or should I say over-the-cauldron, excited! Branding sessions are an opportunity for me to work closely […]

Oh, how Autumn leaves bring all the BEST photography memories! I have always been a very cliché Minnesotan in this regard – I believe Fall time is the very best time. As I am writing this blog, I currently have all my windows open, sipping a warm cup of coffee, Fall pumpkin candles burning, and […]

Oh, where do I even begin with this wedding! If you know me at all, you know that I love the following things so much: Fall weather, Duluth and anything north shore, and intimate weddings. Well, Kellianne and Justin incorporated all of these things into their wedding day, and honestly we hit it off from […]

February is for lovers, and has the most highlighted holiday – Valentine’s Day. My husband and I use to plan far ahead for this holiday – setting up reservations at fun restaurants, planning little getaways, and spending time finding the perfect cards to exchange. Now, as we have aged, we enjoy cooking at home and […]

On a crisp and chilly January morning, Bryna and Christopher prepared to exchange their vows for a second time in their small wedding in St. Peter, Minnesota at The Capitol Room. Despite their plans changing multiple times and having an intimate ceremony back in California, they still wanted to share this special moment with their […]

It is always so fun when I get to watch families evolve year after year. I knew Amanda and Neil from the beginning of my business as wedding clients, and then as the years passed, their whole family became clients of mine, either for individual couples sessions or holiday cards. This was the first time […]

What Lindsay had to say about her session: “I sought Ashley out after a friend had told me what a fun, empowering experience she had during her boudoir shoot. This had always been something I’ve wanted to do but was a little shy and modest. I booked my session with the intent to give some […]
