I had such a fun evening hanging out with Casey and his family and finding awesome spots for photos! I was really excited when they asked me to take his senior portraits, but I think my son was a lot more excited than I was! Casey is one of the basketball players that Tanner idolizes!
He is definitely a sports guy and you could tell immediately when we switched from 'nice' outfits to 'sports' clothes. His smile was a little wider and he had a twinkle in his eye!
I loved all the locations we found and had a really hard time narrowing it down to just these few shots for a sneak peek! Thank you so much Casey! I hope you (and your parents) love your sneak peek!

Lana. PRHS Class of 2012.
I met Lana and her crew at the park to start her session. She brought along her mom and brother and good friend to help us out. I am so glad that her friend was with and I might think of suggesting that to other seniors in the future! She warmed up to the camera and laughed so much more easily with her friend there! It was also great to have an extra pair of eyes to check for misplaced hair and other issues that can arise (especially when it was as windy as it was for her session!)
Thanks so much Lana, it was nice meeting you! I hope you love your sneak peek!

Kelsey. Class of 2012.
Kelsey is the daughter of one of my moms good friends and I was so excited when they asked me to take her senior portraits! I remember when she was just a little girl with her blonde head of hair and cute smile (wow, does that make me feel old!).
We found some great spots all around Fargo, but one of my favorites was just on the outskirts of town, in a wheat field that wasn't yet harvested! Yay!
Thanks Kelsey for asking me to take your photos and congratulations on passing your driving test!

Chelsie. PRHS Class of 2012.
Chelsie and I started at the park for her session the other evening and honestly, the weather couldn't have been more beautiful! There was no wind and the late evening sunlight was seeping through the trees making for some gorgeous shots!
Best of luck during your senior year Chelsie! Thanks for asking me to take your senior photos!

The Bakko and Isaman Families
I had a blast at this big family group session on the lake! I know both of these families well and have taken their photos on a few different occasions. Out of the five grandkids, the two little guys gave us a pretty big run for our money as we tried to chase them and get them to smile.
The girls of course were more than ready to ham it up and even had a bunch of ideas of their own!
Thank you so much to both families! I had a great time! I hope you LOVE your sneak peek!

The Roisum Family
I met up with the Roisums at their home last weekend and the weather couldn't have been more perfect! They are family friends of ours and when they asked me to take their first family portraits I couldn't have been more excited!
It took the little guy awhile to warm up to me and he gave me quite a few 'looks' but in the end, we were able to capture some fun smiles!
Thanks you guys for having me take your photos, I hope you love them!

Silseth Family @ the lake
I met this family one gorgeous summer evening at their lake home. Luckily for me, they had some great spots scoped out before I came that included the lake as well as an old red barn and antique, rusted car.
For me, meeting large family groups is always a good time. There are so many different relationships to capture and this family came with loads of character and smiles!
Thank you Silseth family for asking me to capture your families memories! I hope you like your sneak peek!

Casey. Class of 2012.
It was a perfect day for a session when Casey came to the studio for her senior session. When I met her, she seemed so relaxed and down to earth, I could tell right away that we were going to have a great afternoon taking photos! We took a few in the studio, but it was too nice of a day to pass up shooting outdoors!
We had a lot of fun driving around the country finding locations to shoot. Her mom even commented that we could take photos all day, there were so many great spots!
Thanks again Casey!
