While there are so many images of baby Gabriella I could share, these ones are stealing my heart. These fleeting moments with a newborn preserved with a timeless grainy black and white.
Ashley & T | Minneapolis Engagement Session
I am an engineer. This means I absolutely love a quiet coffee shop to edit for hours (the reason why I can get you your wedding gallery in less than two weeks), am happy to go through all the details of your day, and am constantly challenging myself to learn new things.
What this also means though is I have a giant personal space bubble!! While my family, ENFP dominated friend group, and husband have been trying to break this (I am literally surrounded by people who's love language is touch) it still takes me awhile to warm up.
So I am not sure what was about Ashley and T; their inviting personalities, her contagious smile, the way he can make her eyes light up. But something called me to come in close. AND IT WAS SO POWERFUL. Combining story alongside these intimate portraits I can feel their love pulse right through me in these images.
SEPTEMBER - Personal 10
It's the 10th of September, how can that be? I have felt overwhelmed by the cold weather and quick changing of seasons as my days fly by. For this months 10-on-10 I decided to highlight our trip to the cabin, something that fully embodies summer and the slow moving days that help to fill me up. It is also a time for play, which includes getting my camera into Rich's hands as well as playing around with double exposures. While I had a huge hesitation about posting this (because hell its a lot of personal portraits, and in my swimsuit none the less) I decided to toss my self doubt aside for the sake of summer and all the light these images hold for my heart.
