I will be setting aside a day to schedule some mini-sessions for the holidays. This is a great opportunity to get some nice shots for holiday cards, gifts, or just to get some great shots without the investment of a full session. I am also working on some beautiful holiday cards to fill with shots of your beautiful children. Stay tuned to my blog for their grand debut!

Each session will be 20 minutes long – just long enough to capture some fun shots of your child. We’ll be shooting in historic St. Anthony Main. You’ll get 10-15 images to choose from in your own online gallery.

when: sunday, october 5, 2:30 – 5:30 (sessions will start on the 1/2 hour)

redheads :: minneapolis portraits

What is it about redheads? This family has the most amazing redheaded children. And not only redheads, but a set of twins as well! Some families have all the fun. We had a rockin’ good time down at the Mill City Ruins Park in downtown Minneapolis. I love this shot with the Gold Medal Flour mill. Now tell me, is it a crime to post a black and white photo of a redhead? I really waffled, but I love the texture in the black and white ones. The kids had such a good time exploring down by the river, then we wrapped it up with a treat from Dunn Bros coffee shop. Thanks for a great evening [K] family! Feel free to leave a comment – I love to hear what you think!

gwendolyn - I usually do some color work on the photos, to make them a bit punchier, but I would say that this photo is pretty close to their coloring. I love how bright their hair is…

Charles Raymond - I don’t think it is a crime at all. Some of my most favorite pictures of my little redhead are in black and white.

I have to ask, is the contrast on the last picture just because of the coloring of the kids or did you use some sort of filter on that shot?
