Perfect Fall Day!

It could not have been a more perfect fall afternoon for this session with my girlfriends kids! The fall colors were in peak, the kids full of energy, lots of fun! These kids are great buds and have a good time together being kids, they did a great job! I have known them since they were babies, not babies anymore! Thanks again Jack!

A Cool Fall Morning

The weather is definitely starting to change! These little girls did a great job at their session in Eden Prairie this morning though it was a little cool (50F) and dewey! What little cuties! And both will be big sisters in January to another sister, they were very excited! Happy Fall!

A 4th Place Win!

I attended a nature photography workshop this weekend through National Camera Exchange. The instructor of the course was Don Gale, a fantastic photographer! We photographed all day Saturday at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, a great place to spend the day playing with your camera! Tamron (a lens company) was one of the sponsors of the event loaned out all their various lenses, one of which I feel in love with and am hoping going to purchase for macro photography. Part of the workshop included a photo contest from the shots we took (straight out of the camera) in the morning. Each student was allowed to pick two of their favorite shots for the contest, then National Camera printed each photo in a 12x18 print and the winners were picked that night. I am so pleased that out of 6o prints, one of mine was selected as a 4th place winner! Wohoo!

One Year Anniversary!

It's official, Photography by Christine has been in business in the US for one year! Just one year ago, I was unpacking, organizing from an international move, getting our family settled, and rolling out my business all at the same time! It has been a busy year capturing lots of memories with tremendous growth personally and professionally! I look forward to what the next year brings...

Photos at Lake Harriet

It was fun to have a session at Lake Harriet today. I have not been there since I moved back from London, I really miss that part of the city! Of course it is always a very busy location, a benefit race was just finishing up when our session was starting, but you can always find a place to get away from the crowds.
This handsome little guy was really shy in the beginning of our session. He kept signing "all done" when we were just getting started! By the end of the session he managed to let go of mom and take a few steps away. I was very pleased I got a high five from him the end of the session! Enjoy!

One Year Session

It was a perfect day for a session today! This handsome little guy just turned one, what a cutie! He was such a trooper, poor thing is getting some teeth in, which can't be fun, but he was still very smily in between cuddles from mom and some snacks. Enjoy!

Gorgeous Girls

Today I got the opportunity to photograph two gorgeous little girls! They were so much fun, outfit changes, location changes,
lots of variety! Their mom is a big scrapbooker, so obviously a big picture taker, the girls were so comfortable around the camera, made my work easy! Enjoy!

Brothers

These guys were so much fun! At 2 and 5, they are balls of energy, but they were great about pausing long enough for me to capture a lot of their expressions! We had a fun walk through the Hyland Park Reserve in Bloomington...Enjoy!
