Happy holidays and a lovely New Year to you all! First post of the New Year 2016 and I just have to say…I am so so SO excited for all that is ahead. So many good photos to share, adventures to be had, love stories to tell, couples to meet and fur babies to photograph. (Maybe we’ll get one of our own soon?!) One of the many reasons I enjoy holiday photo sessions so much is that I am often welcomed into families homes, we get to be outdoors (regardless of the sub zero temps) and families love to bring along their fur babies!

Mal and Tyler welcomed me into their home in St. Louis Park where we sipped on their favorite drink, Moscow Mule’s, and we toasted to another wonderful year. I gratefully got to meet their Goldendoodle, Sparty and enjoyed a fun walk around the golf course near their home. Many treats, smiles and laughs later and I had a great time with the Howell’s. I am looking forward to flipping through these photos non-stop because I can’t get enough of their love for one another and of course Sparty Doods puppy eyes!

Enjoy friends! Happy 2016! // xo-Rach
