Christmas Blizzard
Just when we thought it was going to be both a lonely + brown Christmas, a blizzard came and made it seem logical we were sitting alone at home for the holidays.

The Jacksons + The Leaves
When work friends become life friends, you know it’s been a worthwhile job. I never got to hug my coworker Sarah goodbye because I left our shared workplace during the pandemic. I’ve really only seen her via Zoom since March, so it was an extra sweet treat to be able to see her and Paul and Baby T, who is NO LONGER A BABY, in person! It seems like just yesterday we were planning that hedgehog-themed baby shower at work.

Our Airbnb tiny house
A Driftless Halloween
Before election week, we took a little road trip down to Viroqua, Wisconsin. We stayed in a cozy tiny house, ate incredible food from The Driftless Cafe, watched almost all of The Queen’s Gambit, and hiked around the bluffs of the Mississippi.

Lena’s parents have one of the best gardens, and it grew up alongside her…her first year coincided with a move to a new house with a big yard. It was only fitting that she was most photogenic among the kale and pepper plants. This shoot was filled with all the best fall colors, and some of my dearest friends.

Courtney + James + Baby Bump
Courtney and James are two of my favorite people, so when they asked me to take some baby bump photos, I was both honored and excited. This was officially my first maternity shoot, and I couldn’t have asked for a more sweet or adorable family. We warmed up with a few trial shots at Keepsake Cidery in Dundas, Minnesota, then strolled around downtown Northfield before making a quick pit-stop by the Carleton Arboretum before the bugs devoured us.
I can’t wait to meet their little one and watch these two parent. For now, here are some of my favorites of these three.

Jenni
Jenni and I met through work. Before we were officially coworkers, though, we met up for a hobby trade. I took her headshots and she read my Tarot cards. Through this shoot, I got to see how fun and varied Jenni’s personality is, and also how varied the textures and colors are along 38th Street are in Minneapolis, right near our apartment.
