Candy | senior

Long time, no post... somebody slap me! No, please don't. But seriously it is pretty sad how badly I've done the past several weeks. With a new job, updates to my [phantom] website, and so many other things going on, I could have plenty of excuse to fall behind – but NO MORE! With that, here is Candy (sister to Leo & Ashley), a sweet girl with a great future ahead of her. We had a fun time this fall driving around Minneapolis finding places to take pictures. We even ran into her old school, and got a chance to take some nice shots on her old stomping grounds. Wishing you luck finishing your senior year, Candy.

Chris + her boys | family

Chris and I got to really talk for the first time at an extended family reunion this summer... yes she is part of my family and I don't know that we've had a conversation before! But I'm glad that changed. She told me that she was planning to go on an African safari in 2012 (jealous), and wanted some advice on buying a new camera. She probably learned quickly not to get me started on cameras :). Enjoy these photos of Chris and her sons, Nick and Connor!

Ashley & Leo | wedding

Ashley has been a good friend of mine for a few years now, as I mentioned in last week's post. It was really an honor to have her and Leo ask me to do their wedding! Ash is a photographer also and has some awesome dreams of what she might do with it. Leo I'm just getting to know better, and from what I can tell he's a great guy, and is completely in love with Ashley. Which is a plus :)

Their wedding was very small and intimate, and under a willow tree. Totally beautiful. And at the same time as a marathon going on near us. Totally hilarious. And talk about memorable – I informed Ashley that everyone was really cheering for her and Leo, not the runners. 

Ash and Leo, I truly can't wait to see what exciting things are going to happen in your lives together.
