Be My Valentine!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! Derek and I spent the morning driving back from Iowa. I went to work for a few hours, then Derek and I were able to relax and enjoy Valentine's Day! Mike and Laurie had us over for dinner. Laurie made chicken, seasoned potatoes, green beans with almonds, rolls, and for dessert we had chocolate gnoche (sp?!?) cake with pink icing hearts! I don't have any pictures to show, but it was a great time, and it was nice to just be able to relax and enjoy the company. Laurie set up the table with candles, and we ate by candlelight. How romantic! :)
Derek and I went very low-key this year for gifts! Partly because our schedules have been anything but slow so we were unable to really shop, and partly because we are all feeling the economic situation. I got Derek cute Valentine's boxers with lipstick kisses from Target, and Derek gave me a really sweet card and money for my MAC purchases I will be making on Saturday. So, I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day! Many X's and O's!!

About Me

My photo
Twin Cities, MINNESOTA
I am a graduate from the University of Minnesota. I have a B.A. in Communication Disorders, and I have taken classes in photography and visual arts. I have a wonderful husband, a house, and two cats. I am an office manager and photographer for a wedding photography company in the twin cities, and I am working to start my own photography business in child, baby, belly, family, and high school senior portraits. I love natural lighting and I like getting as many candids as possible. I also love setting up photo shoots with backdrops, props, and cute outfits! I enjoy "choreographing" shots, not posing! I feel my style is mostly photo journalistic with a little bit of traditional and artistic thrown in the mix. I started this sight to share my work as well as keep updated with my family and friends! We seem to get more and more spread out across the country, but I am hoping to keep everyone informed on what is happening in my life with this blog. I also hope to share a little bit about myself with the people I photograph. I feel like I am photographing important moments and people in their lives, so I want them to get a glimpse of who I am as well.
