Lilly | Downtown Minneapolis

This session hails from the archives — all the way back to 2018! My gear and editing may have evolved since then, but the joy, personality, and tail wags are timeless. Some moments just deserve another round in the spotlight, and this one still makes me smile. (Originally photographed in 2018. Part of the “From the Vault” series — rediscovering some of my favorite classic sessions!) Lily was the cutest little mini wolf! Her mom mentioned before the session that Lily was shy and would do best if she could sniff and explore without me invading her space — absolutely […]

Frank & Bell | Central Minnesota

Frank’s owner had won a session from a silent auction and contacted me before they moved out of the state for a new adventure. The day arrived, cloudy with threats of rain (but it held off huzzah!). We toodled area at their house out in the country with a MASSIVE yard, a quaint bridge, a vast wildflower area, cute pond and loads of running room. (If you want to do a session at your house, this is the IDEAL backyard!) Frank was adopted from Tri County Humane Society and his formal new name is actually: Franklinias! He, like all the

Lyra & Kaedo | Theo Wirth Park

Cue the muggiest day in July. Add a pair of epic corgis and the ginormous Theodore Wirth Park, and you’ve got Lyra & Kaedo’s session. The duo rocked their time in front of the camera, with Lyra stealing the show thanks to her MEGA cute head tilts.

Even though the locations were familiar, Lyra’s spunky personality made them feel brand-new. As the light began to fade, we headed
