Airplanes, Aviation and Aiden | Baby Aiden

Shelly, Joe and Aiden make the perfect family.

One of my favorite things about being a wedding photographer is getting to know families. To a certain extent, my being there for one of most important days of a family’s life allows me to do this. However, when I get to see a family more than once, it’s really special. That is part of the reason shooting adorable Aiden was so much fun. I had previously photographed Shelly and Joe’s wedding and they asked me back to create this awesome aviation themed shoot for their newborn baby. Considering my love for flying, this task was such a blast.

His parents gathered all of the props, all related to their passions of aviation and baseball, and we had so much fun dressing Aiden up. The little airplane that Aiden is sleeping on is a 1920’s pedal airplane that they borrowed from the Golden Wings Air Museum! I was so impressed by what they had come up with. They made my job easy by creating an awesome atmosphere and most importantly by just having an absolutely adorable child. Watching this couple clearly having so much fun with the people they care about most was such a treat. It’s always a pleasure to be invited into your family, Shelly and Joe! Aiden is a treasure. I hope this isn’t the last time I see you!

Fly Away With Me | Family Photos at the Kahului Heliport

I’ve known Brandon and his wife Kelsy for a few years now.  We met through through the aviation community here on Maui.  Brandon is a medevac pilot and one of the best helicopter instructors I know.

I’ve seen my friend Brandon more than any of my friends on Maui this year. Why? Because he helped me get my helicopter license! Earlier this year he spent many many hours with me in a Schweizer S300 so I could take my license exam when I got back to Minnesota in February.  I am beyond grateful for his friendship and his amazing instruction!

Since Brandon and Kelsy are expecting their second child in May, I wanted to give them a maternity photo shoot at a Maui location of their choice.  Of course they picked the Kahului heliport!  Our goal was to get some shots with the helicopters on the ground, and if we could, capture Brandon’s co-worker landing the medevac helicopter in the background while Kelsy and Brandon kissed.  We nailed it! Kelsy looks absolutely stunning… What a gorgeous family!

Enjoy these Maui family portraits at the Kahului airport!

Newborn Portraits | Millie Joy

I’m an uncle… Again! My little sister Jennae and her husband Tyler just welcomed their little girl Millie Joy a couple weeks ago. She is named after our dear grandmother, Mildred, who passed three years ago after living a full and beautiful life that included gardening and shoveling her own driveway at age 98! Baby Millie is just the cutest little peanut. She’s calm, sweet, and she still has those baby blues… (Though probably not for long. All the kids in my family so far have inherited the chocolate brown Palmer eyes.)

Jennae and Tyler are overjoyed to introduce their baby girl! Enjoy these MN newborn portraits!

Brooks’ Newborn Pictures in Excelsior, MN

Jenna and Ryan have been my clients and friends for some time now, and I absolutely LOVE being their go-to photographer!  They are just so cool, and they have a beautiful (growing) family.  We’ve done a number of photo shoots together, from their engagement and wedding photography, to maternity sessions, family pictures, and now…. newborn portrait session #2!

WELCOME, LITTLE BROOKS!  We are in love with his tininess, his mellow personality, his healthy appetite and his fire red hair.  Jenna and Ryan swear they don’t know where the redheaded trait comes from, neither of them had it as a child… But Brooks and his older brother Beau are definitely rocking the ginger genes!

Thanks for the fun day at your beautiful new house in Excelsior, you two!  It is absolutely gorgeous… I can’t believe you packed and moved while Jenna was 8 months pregnant, with toddler Beau in tow!  But I’m glad you can both finally relax and have a beer at your outdoor bar. 😉  Enjoy these family and newborn photos!
