Just a typical day around here. You with a painted face…in your bike helmet (safety first!) fishing with an imaginary pole and using seashells for bait. You yelled at me when I was taking these photographs saying that I was “standing in the ocean, mom!”. Oops . I love you this way. I love 4.
Mornings. It’s our time. You come into my room…still wobbly from sleep…and climb under the covers. We fade in and out for awhile. Neither of us morning people. Then you are up. There are usually giggles and tickling involved. Silly stories. Cuddles. I know this special time will soon end when you start kindergarten in…
So I am the mother of a bookworm. Probably because I am one. As a kid I’d hear, “Put down the book and go play outside” all too often . So as I was preparing for her arrival and dreaming up all the ways I would raise my child as soon-to-be mothers often do…I vowed…
You don’t wear goggles to keep your eyes dry…it’s because you’re scuba diving. Looking for treasure. You’ve even given up bubbles because you are so serious about your endeavors. Scuba on little girl!

This shoot was inspired by 80 degree March weather and 2 beautiful girls about to say goodbye to high school forever and was of course shot in the Uptown area of Minneapolis. The rest speaks for itself . Insert shameless plug here: Olive Avenue Photography is looking for class of 2013 high school senior model…

Oooh personal…what is she going to spill now? Sorry…nothing juicy in this post . I’ve just been reflecting a bit on my own personal photograph taking. I haven’t been doing so swell…I am doing an instagram 365 photo a day project which has been great…but I haven’t hauled out my big girl camera in almost…
This little guy was the first newborn to grace my home studio! I went to college with his parents…so it was extra special to take his first photos. He is going to be VERY loved with 2 big sisters and a big brother! I love the photographs of him and his mommy…capturing that connection during…
