LIFESTYLE
Welcome to the lifestyle section. All the things that help me live a life recovered from anxiety, depression and being captive to negativity. Let’s carve out some space for your mind to breathe.
Ankenbauer Sneak Peek
This summer {is it okay that I'm still referring to summer...even though we are past Labor Day?} has brought me the pleasure of photographing three extended family sessions. Remember? The Rodins and the Rodgers? Getting an extended family photo poses it's...
Caleb Class of 2016 { baseball senior photos }
Meet Caleb. The first guy of my senior season. It's kind of surprising, really...because the senior season is nearly over. But I guess that's how boys roll--waiting until last minute and all. Girls seem to be on the front end of things when it comes to getting...
Three Generations {Sunflower Sneak Peek}
A couple weeks ago I was invited to capture some very special family photos. You may recognize some of these precious faces. I've photographed Jenna {remember her awesome senior portraits?}, and Kate {wedding, engagement, puppy portraits}. But on this {very hot}...
Cassie: Class of 2016 {sneak peek}
This is Cassie. During her session I took to calling her Sassy Cassie...like she's never heard that one before... Not because she was super sassy in her tone or attitude--but because she has total control over her face and can put out the fiercest "sassy-vibe" I've...
Kylee Class of 2016 { senior photos }
Meet Kylee. She's in the class of 2016--in case you hadn't figured that out just yet. On the day of her session I was pleasantly surprised when we met up downtown and were joined by an entourage of four of her dearest friends. Including this pretty face you...
The Rodgers Family 2015
I am so excited to be sharing the Rodgers Family's 2nd Annual Photo Session with you today. I love repeat clients--so I was super pumped when Janet emailed and asked if I'd be interested in getting together on their farm again this summer for some photos of their...
Sylvia { Country Senior Pictures }
Yesterday I showed you part one of Sylvia's senior portraits--senior pictures with her best friend Anna. Tonight I'm delighted to showcase solo images of Sylvia. So many things worked in our favor on the evening of her session...lovely temperatures, very little...
Sylvia and Anna { Best Friend Photos }
I really like repeat clients. It's super fun to see how people grow and change between sessions. So I was absolutely tickled when I was asked to photograph Sylvia's senior photos. I'd met her last year when I photographed her family--her large, gorgeous, family--on...
Sydney { Class of 2016}
A few days before Sydney's session I was driving north of town and was utterly taken aback by the gorgeous canola fields. I'm telling you--there is really nothing more stunning than a Practically Canadian summer. Nothing. The countryside is simply breath taking and...
Mr & Mrs Borseth
It seems like eons ago that I shot Anne and Jay's g-g-g-gorgeous wedding. In reality it was only weeks ago...but I suppose that's how summer goes up here in Practically Canada. We wait for it all year long, then before we know it it's practically fall again. ...
Mikaela Class of 2016 {Sneak Peek}
This is Mikaela. She's crazy photogenic. Like, seriously. I photograph a lot of people--and I love them all--but she was seriously easy to shoot. She's natural and confident in front of the camera, and magically has complete control over her face. {Something I'm...
The Basement { Part II : Closets and Contractors }
I'm kind of a hypocrite. I have a very strong dislike of wood paneling. But if I call it bead board and plan to paint it white...suddenly it's chic to me. I can't explain my thought process. At any rate, the stairs and laundry center are lined with bead board. ...
