Karissa {sparrows}

Karissa is kute. And yes, I meant to write kute with a "k" instead of a "c". Karissa and her brother Kollin came up from Iowa for the weekend to visit their sister Kaitlyn at Northwestern College here in Mn (see all the "K's"?) I've had the pleasure of getting to know Kaitlyn for the past year, so when she wrote me to inquire about taking her sister's senior photos I knew that I wanted to do them because she had to be just as cute as her sister! Karissa  is involved in cross country, show choir, and band in the fall so her schedule has been pretty packed, but she finally made it up for the weekend and we had a BLAST! Apparently, one of her favorite loves is Ice Cream, so she LOVED the idea of grabbing a cone for some photos. Karissa, I had so much fun getting to know you during our shoot. Good luck next year at Cosmetology School! 

We had to take a siblings photo just for fun: Karissa, Kollin and Kaitlyn.

Busy Bee

Bluejay and I have had a busy Autumn. We have shot a few weddings and several portrait sessions in the past month. Today I am LOVING the crummy dark clouds, the rainstorms, and the wind. I love it because I tore myself out from under my pink Snuggie and am currently sitting at Starbucks with my steaming mug of coffee with a shot of Hazelnut and cream. One whiff of that caffeinated goodness makes me feel like all is warm and toasty in the world. Even if it's cold and rainy. So here I sit, with photos to blog and weddings to edit. But got a little distracted by my Oh So Hansom Husband who is sitting next to me. How come he still makes my heart flutter when we are coming up on the five year anniversary of our first date? I think it's his dimples. Or maybe his soft plaid flannel shirt that makes me want to cozy up on his shoulder. Or both? Yes... both. I love my Bluejay. Maybe when we get home, we'll share a pot of tea and my pink Snuggie and listen to the rain falling on the roof. Here some photos of Bluejay helping me at our last wedding. He's my favorite second shooter!
