Evan turned One!!!








What seems like so long ago (it was actually only a few short months ago but during the Polar Vortex we are currently experiencing, it seems like ages ago!!), we went to Evan's family's new home to photograph Evan for his first birthday and their family at their new residence.  It was the perfect fall day with the sun providing the best light!!  Evan had started walking since we had last seen him and was having a ball exploring his surroundings-which included his grandpa's vintage super cool red car!!  What a morning we had!! Big sister Halle had her horse out that day so we were able to capture some beautiful moments of them together!  We are looking forward to this spring when Evan and Halle welcome a new baby to their house!  Hooray!!

Tucker the Boston Terrier!!


Okay.  How ridiculously adorable is this pup?  He can stop being so darn cute already!!  Tucker the Boston Terrier was about 10 weeks old when he came into the studio for his modeling debut!!  Tucker is lucky enough to be a part of a wonderful family we have known at Miroslavich Photography for many years!! He is an awesome addition to their home and we can't wait to see him again when he is all grown up!

Congratulations to Mike Wallus!



We have know "Mr Wallus" for many years as he taught all of my kiddos when they were in kindergarten/1st grade.  He was definitely a favorite teacher!  Last year we were asked by Mike to photograph executive headshots of him.  We were pleased to do so!  In late December, the White house Press Office released an announcement naming Mike as the 2012 National Winner for Elementary Math Teaching in MN for the Presidential Award of Excellence in Mathematics and Sciene Teaching (PAEMST)!! Recipients are also invited to Washington, DC, for an awards ceremony and several days of educational and celebratory events, including visits with members of Congress and the Administration. 
WOW!!  Congratulations "Mr Wallus"on such an accomplishment and honor!  It was an honor for us to create headshots to be used for such a special occasion!

New Year Wishes!







Welcome back to the blog! Our first post of 2014! We are back in the studio and ready to take on 2014 and make it the best year yet!!  Fun and exciting sessions planned for January already and you can be sure we will share them with you here!  But first, we thought we would start the year off showcasing a beautiful family session from 2013.  Such a lovely, fun family whose siblings were happy to partake in this session despite their busy lives and schedules! As our families grow up and move on, there is still a tie to each other despite school, jobs, distances away.  Let's make 2014 an amazing year- and we hope these images remind us what is important in our lives!  Happy New Year!!
