I’m getting married!!

Besides being really excited about the usual things (pretty dress, yummy cake and lots of dancing) I’m SUPER excited that Teri and Greg are flying all the way to Minnesota to be my wedding photographers! I can’t imagine anyone else I’d rather have there, and we’ve got some great things planned. I’ve set aside extra time before the ceremony to get some really fun photos of the whole wedding party, and of course, a ton of me and Dan. We’re getting married at the MN Landscape Arboretum, which has over 1,000 acres of beautiful spots for photos - better bring some comfy shoes Teri!! And then, when we get back from our honeymoon in Maui, we’re going to trek around Seattle for some edgy, urban type photos. Can’t wait! I’m looking forward to all the fun photos we’ll take,
and so grateful Teri and Greg are willing to do this for me.

Check out the save the date card I came up with.
We're having a photo booth at our reception so it fits, right?

Cute as a bug!

Meet Avery, new to our "Cute as a Bug" plan. We're looking forward to
photographing Avery every couple of months - she's a great model!

Avery wasn't too sure about being stuck in a tub, and then into
a box, but we think the cute photos were worth it!

She really liked the beach though - shells and grass must not taste too bad!

I'm an Auntie! (sort of)

My best friend had her first baby on January 17th, so I flew back to MN last month to visit her (and take care of a few more wedding plans). I think Ellivia is the most beautiful baby I've ever seen (I'm not biased at all!) and I can't wait to spend more time with her. I managed to put down the baby and pick up the camera for a few photos.......


It's hard to imagine your best friend as a mom, but I think motherhood fits Taryn very well. And James is a pretty great daddy too!

Here's the birth announcement I made. Isn't she cute!?

Ellivia, you are going to be soooo sick of my camera! Can't wait to see you!!
