Baby Sam is ONE!

I got to hang out with this lovely crew in their beautiful neighborhood around Lake Harriet. For the second year in a row! Same babies, same spot, but a trip around the sun later. You can go here to see how tiny Elle and Sam were last year.

Elle is so full of energy, spunk and life. You can see it in her mischievous smile. I know she’ll be doing big things and going places - literally and figuratively! Sam was just a little nugget a year ago. Now he has a full set of curly blonde hair and sports the best toothy smile!

These images are reflection of why I love capturing family portraits, for the days are long but the years are too dang short!!

Meet Baby Maude!

/ Lyndale Park Rose Garden/

How sweet is Maude and her ocean-colored blue eyes! Her mom and dad call her by Mimi and I think that's about the cutest thing. We had a blast having the Rose Garden all to ourselves and just loving on Mimi girl.

Betty and Steve, you have the most darling baby girl! Thank you for having me capture this precious milestone of Mimi being 6 months!

Psst! leave this lovely family a note here and if they get 10+ comments, they will get a special snail nail from me with a couple of my favorite images!

Henry is ONE!

Henry boy is ONE!! This little blondie with blue eyes will steal your heart with his toothy smile!

Believe it or not, this is Henry's 5th photo shoot with me. (twice in utero!) With that said, let's go for a trip down memory lane, shall we?  First Trimester  - Maternity - Newborn - 6 months  

It's so sweet to look back at their year and know how fast babies grow in a year! Also it's rewarding to see how much I have grown, too. I love having this space in my little corner of the interweb to showcase each family and tell their story. I put a lot of time and effort in hopes to make you feel all-that-mush stuff as you scroll and I hope you guys enjoy it the same.

Enough about me. These five humans are the cutest. The Thiele crew, I love you!
