More parks, swings, dirt & golden hour goodness, plus the season’s first popsicles….here’s a little peek into what the end of the month of April looked like for us!

April’s melting snow and warmer temperatures made way for trips to the park, puddle jumping, and muddy adventures. We had so much outdoor fun, that I’ve decided to share our shenanigans in two parts. So, here are some of my favorites of my silly girls from the beginning of April.

scrub-a-dub, sisters in a tub

Well, the spring weather came for a couple days and then it left again :(. We got another snowstorm last week, and in an effort to keep things positive, I let the girls go swimming…in the bathtub! They were very excited to get such a treat, and stayed in the water well past the raisiny-finger stage. I had fun watching them “swim” and play, and was so intrigued at watching them interact with each other. They are close in age, but have starkly different personalities. My little one is fierce and independent, observant and a real dare-devil. But, as I watched through my lens, I noticed she’s still very much in awe of her big sister, imitating her at every chance. My first-born is gentle, cautious, emotional and kind-hearted. Can you guess who each girl is?

mornings with the ‘r’ family

I had so much fun spending a morning following around these sweet children! Books, wrestles, legos, giggles, plush toys, cuddles and little feet…that’s what these mornings are made of.

well, that didn’t last long!

It’s a rare moment when my two energetic ladies take a moment to relax, but when they do, it’s often so they can sit down with a pile of books. It’s even more rare that these two can sit in the same room while also getting along. Imagine my shock and excitement when both happened….simultaneously. Naturally, I grabbed my camera to document the momentous occasion. Good thing I did, because things returned to “normal” within a few minutes. And I captured that moment as well.

it’s melting!!!!!

We were soooo happy that it was warm enough to get outside (without coats 🙂 ) last weekend! We took a little walk around the neighborhood and even made it to the park. It’s always exciting to find some of nature’s “treasures” when we’re out.

in the cold winter light

It was SO nice to have a touch of real spring temperatures this weekend! I can’t wait until it’s here to stay for a while. In the meantime, here’s a collection of images I took in the beautiful (but freeeeezing!) golden hour light this winter. My daughters are not exactly in love with the frigid temps. My oldest even commented during one of our outings, “mom, you can take as many pictures as you want when its warm out!” Glad she’s on board. And, don’t worry, they actually fight over who gets to go out on photo excursions with mom! Once again, I must give a nod to the talented Summer Murdock, instructor of The Magic of Light workshop at Bloom Forum, who provided much inspiration for these images.

finding light in the darkness

Here are a few more images I was inspired to take while participating in the Magic of Light workshop at The Bloom Form. This is a series I shot in my basement using only window light. Oh, and pardon the dust 😉

a girl and her blankie

It’s her cape, her dress, her comfort. It’s pink, it’s soft, it’s tattered. This girl with her mess of curls loves her blankie.

I just loved participating in the Magic of Light workshop at The Bloom Forum. I learned loads of great information, and enjoyed connecting with other photographers!

Happy 3rd Birthday!

What a joy it was to photograph this little lady, who just celebrated her 3rd birthday! She loves pink, reading, and being an awesome big sister to her four-month-old brother.

Baby Girl B

The cold winter months in Minnesota are perfect for in-home newborn photo sessions! Expecting soon? Or know someone who is? Contact me to get on the schedule! I am offering special pricing for sessions taking place in January and February. I was delighted to be invited into the B family’s home to photograph newborn Baby Girl B. She was just 3 days new during this session. I was in awe of her perfectly pink skin, and rosy red lips and cheeks. She just loved snuggles, too! The entire family was smitten…including her “fur” sister 🙂
