Teals Mini Session // Maternity & Family Portraits // Vermillion Falls Hastings, MN

When Jim & Michele pulled into the parking lot, there was a very sleepy child in the backseat, so we walked a few steps away to capture a few photos of just the two (well, three) of them before pulling Austin out from his sleepy slumber! Austin definitely was having a hard time waking up and was pretty straight faced at first -- that was until I said the magic word: "ninja." He instantly lit up and smiled at me. Ninja? Yup! Austin loves this word and is always wanting to show our oldest how to be a ninja and teach him some ninja moves.

​We love the chance to photograph our close friends! It's even better when they are celebrating such a precious milestone like a baby boy coming before the end of this year! We met Jim and Michele through our church and are so grateful for their friendship. Ethan and their oldest, Austin, are best buds and we're excited to meet their new little one who will be a few months older than our little one coming next April.

Jim and Michele, we are so honored to document this precious next step for your family as we know how hard it's been to bring another precious one into this world. We are so grateful for your friendship and commitment to our church, especially walking alongside us in this parenting journey through our small group! Let us know HOWEVER we can help as you transition to a family of four!
