Wrappin' it Up!

The last of season shots for this young man!

who just happens to pose very well by old vehicles!

After battling weather and sports schedules for both our families, we were finally able to meet - and lo and behold, my yard satisfied all our needs. ... Check out Doug's place of business in the upper right horizon! 

The Wilson 'Family

Love this!  Like it a lot!

A fine portrait of talented young men!

One of a kind graphics by "K design".

SUN and POOL-WATER were truly a fall *bright* spot to work on. 

Garrett @ the Wht. Pool = one of most fun locations to shoot at! 

Yup, there is no doubt, I am missing warmer, drier ... summer kind of weather!

Fall and Colors ... we beat the snow by hours!

ahhhh - timeless moments.
multi generations. 
a life just beginning and one well-lived.
max & great papa.

Ok,  I can't help it - 'tis the season,
and this is one of my favorite photos -
not to mention one of my favorite sons!

What a great day! ... not only a past teacher, but a family member was one of my first students when I began at the WHS system, PLUS a fantastic day to WALK FOR CANCER! 

Seniors

Seniors!  How exciting to be part of THEIR special year! 
I had SO much fun!  Thanks guys!

I had so many great photo opportunities this summer. 
To these families and people I am thankful!  Working
with families was so heart-warming; My own little circle

of family is so tiny that the energy and warmth from these

lovely people sucked me in!  This is Janet and "her men!"

Amazing isn't it?  ....

Grandpa's Edsel

It has been a while since there's been an update so, I, Kaitlin, figured I could take the matter into my own hands. Mom still seems to be caught in the whirlwind of summer even as it winds down. She's been a busy bee finishing up some packages and putting together portfolios.

Recently Mom took a trip down to Madison for a family reunion. As it ends up there was another little reunion in store for us to feast our eyes upon..check it out.

This is my Grandpa Beaumont, proud owner:

I absolutely love this photograph, it's timeless.

Makes for some great graphic shots.

just think of those Sunday afternoon drives...

Now, wasn't that a nice little treat? :)

Have a relaxing Labor day!

Summer began with a trip to Moosejaw, Saskatchewan. This prairie scene flew by our vehicle enroute to destination ... Kaitlin was kind enough to pull over on our way home. It has it all - red barn, babbling crook, rolling hills, pastureland. A train chugging by on the tracks would have been icing on the cake!

No Place Like Home

Imagine my delight on the discovery of baby robins being fed by mama in the soft evening sunset glow of the last baseball game of Peder's season.

Old International

I've followed this young man in sports since 10th grade - he kept getting in the way of my camera! Now he's a senior and moving on ....

Rain Kissed

Spring Rains ... on May tulips ...

May Moments

May: pulling out old foto files & saying goodbyes.

NYWA State Wrestling action Rochester, MN - catchin' the win!

A winning upset! MNSHL state wrestling.

Okay - I'm just a bit eager for Spring to arrive! Regrowth - Regeneration - Renewal.

Flowers - my Grandma's garden - dirt beneath my fingernails. I think I can smell Srping IN the air! ahhhhhh

Waiting ... for a bit of sunshine!

Calgary Chinooks

Rocky Mountain winds warmed the city during my stay with family ...

a walk with old friends on a fresh to-be spring day ...
smiles, laughter, memories, ... a chance to play!

Calgary

I spent almost a whole month up in Calgary, Canada, where I visited and cherished time with my family. I also met two nieces and a nephew for the very first time! Here they are: Svea, Myla and Marcus.

Can't deny the fun of trying new things. A grand piano and a talented young performer. These senior photos were exciting to be part of!
