Minnesotans have this deep resilience when it comes to cold weather. The first session date I booked with these folks ended up being  snowed out. In October. Yes. You read that correctly.  Wisely, these folks chose to wait for a true fall scene. (Boy that weather really shocked us all!) Hate to admit it, but our actual session was still cold weather. But Minnesota cold-weather endurance proved true again for little one-year-old Linden. I expected: fussiness during our midday shoot, the need for breaks from shooting and cuddles with mom and dad. What I did not expect:  the boatload of smiles, laughs, and this little man’s ability to keep coming back to joy in spite of it all!

I realized this little boy’s father is a well respected chiropractor in our town – I love when it happens that I don’t realize I know my clients before they arrive!

Courtney & Pete,

Thank you so much for trusting me to photograph keepsake memories for your little man’s first birthday! Your patience paid off, and little Linden could not have done a better job being himself in front of the camera. I so enjoyed working with you, especially your willingness to allow me to guide and direct our location.

Joyfully,

Jennifer
