Evan & Ben

Posted on February 22, 2010

I believe this is my 4th (?) time photographing Evan and my 2nd time photographing Ben.  It was also my first session in my new studio!  I knew my way around my old studio, since I had been working in there for over 2 years.  I was a little off my game in this place.  There were no lights to work with, only the natural lighting coming through the windows!  I am very happy with the results, even though I had to work hard to get rid of some of that direct sunlight, which I plan to fix very soon!  Evan is turning 18 months and was definitely your average 18-month-old boy.  It was sure alot easier letting him run around in a bigger area than my old studio.  :)

Mom got him to sit still long enough for this quick shot.  Notice the bubbles in his hair :)

Charlie & Christian

Posted on February 22, 2010

These two are definitely in love.  You could feel it all day being around them.  It was my first same sex marriage ceremony, so it was a brand new experience for me… or at least I thought.  Aside from Charlie & Christian being the same sex, it was just like a regular wedding day.  Another first for me that day was working at the U of MN McNamara Alumni Center.  What a gorgeous, GORGEOUS facility!  It was so much fun working there all day.  They had both their wedding ceremony and reception there.  Charlie is brother to Luke from Luke & Kate, who’s Mom is really good friends with my mom.  I was honored when Charlie & Christian asked me to document their wedding day.  It was definitely a blast to be a part of!

Ok, this thing was cool.  It was the cake server in the shape of a stiletto.  The best part is, the heal pops off for use after the wedding ;)

This was a surprise for Christian’s sister and husband.  They were married recently in Jamaica, but never had a proper first dance.  They corrected that by surprising them with a first dance of their own!

Let the party begin!

Charlie loves to dance, as evidenced by this photo ;)
