lakes area love | Alexandria, MN family photographer

When we have like 9 months of crappy weather, us Minnesotans can really play hard during the other 3. And since we live surrounded by water, chances are we are playing near, on, and in the water. Lakes area loving.

I met this adorable family when I showed up on their doorstep. Usually I have my sessions earlier in the late afternoon, but I decided to hold it a little later. And I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad I did. You will see why in a few scrolls.

First I will introduce you to Brogan & Finley. And of course I make siblings get closer than they ever would if they weren’t bribed.

And just warning you giving you a heads up, I will make you and your spouse do PDA for the camera. And it almost always turns out this stinkin’ cute. So promise to trust me. Ok?

Look at those cute kids and that glass like lake.

And this is why I am happy I moved the session later. Golden hour. That hour before the sunsets is just the best light. Ever. Couple that with a still, quiet lake, an adorable, fun family….well, that is the making of some really great images.

What is said on the dock, stays on the dock. 🙂

She was really ready for her close up….luckily so was I.

Thank you John, Jen, Brogan and Fin!
