The Hahnfeldt Family - Rosemount Photographer

Weather was not on our side when it came to scheduling the Hahnfeldt family. Our first session was scheduled on July 16 at Hot Sam's Antiques and Collectibles in Lakeville but with the heavy rains the day before we had to reschedule. We tried again the next weekend but an unexpected storm that only lasted about a half hour ruined our plans. We rescheduled again for August 6, third time a charm? When I arrived at Hot Sam's they were closed! This could not be happening! So, I suggested we head to UMore Park in Rosemount. The day was beautiful and not so humid as the days prior. This family had so much fun exploring the grounds, looking at all the flowers and bugs. I even snapped a photo of the family with a butterfly flying around.

UMore Park in Rosemount

I have had such bad luck with my last three Saturdays, I'm hoping August can turn that around! One family we had to reschedule twice due to rain and then another family had a family emergency. August might be the month for reschedules and hopefully nicer weather!

My need to get out and take some pictures happened with a break in the weather, my daughter's favorite place to walk around is the UMore Park in Rosemount. All the pretty flowers and quiet pond makes this place an amazing spot to take pictures.

The Pranke Family - Farmington Photographer

I met the Pranke Family on Sunday, June 12 at the Dakota City Heritage Village in Farmington. I have never been here before so my daughter and I explored it that morning. It started to rain lightly but cleared up in the afternoon. These cousins had a lot of energy and I found it hard to keep up but they sure did have a lot of fun together. They also had their pictures taken with their grandparents, you could definitely feel the love between these families!



The Pye Family - Lakeville Photographer

I got to know the Pye family on June 11 at Hot Sam's in Lakeville, I have to admit this was my first family photography session so I was a little nervous on how it was going to turn out. This relaxed family was so much fun to capture through my lens, it reminded me why I love what I do!
