{Luke - Class of 2011 | High School Senior Photography}

Last week, not only did I get to have fun shooting my friend, Luke's seniors portraits, I got to hang out with his super amazing family. Haha, the things his little bro's say, they're the best. We also shot portraits of the rest of the kids, which will be coming soon....

After we shot around his house, he had the idea that we should head to the unused gravel pit down the road. Best idea ever! It was epic, especially when the crane started moving :) It was pretty much a photographer's dream.

Alright... I know I've been very absent, but I've been crazy busy. Hoping to get back on track soon!

Last week I had the fun opportunity to shoot the promotion pictures for Splash School, the private swim school that I teach for. Teaching for them is usually a blast [of course there are always days ;) ] and I had just as much fun shooting.

If you live in the Brainerd, Crosslake, Sartell, or Duluth areas and are looking for private swimming lesson, check them out!

{Shoes | Staples Motley Sports}

I have this fascination with sports footwear, mainly because they're so specifically designed for a special purpose. They're all shoes, but completely different ones. Plus there also quite the personal statement... just check out some of the colors ;)  A few months ago I decided I wanted to put together a collection of a bunch of different ones.. so here are a few of my favs.
