rhonda stark photography: minneapolis children’s photographer

i had the pleasure of meeting these two sweeties this morning .. they were so good for me and even sang me a holiday song!

mom & dad .. i’ll be in touch soon with the rest of the gallery!

ok .. well it’s not exactly her horse .. but she is taking lessons with him and mom thought it’d be fun to get some images of lil ‘E and her new friend!

and i loved this one in the barn ..

mom .. thanks for the fun day .. we couldn’t have asked for better weather! i’ll be in touch when the rest of the gallery is ready.

the last time i had a session at this location the subject was terrified of the chickens .. which at that time i didn’t realize were there .. well this time these girls knew it .. and loved the chickens (whew!!) …


look at these gorgeous eyes on big sister!

and this expression on little sister just cracks me up!

hope you enjoy the peek mom & dad .. i’ll be in touch with the gallery soon!

i had the pleasure of meeting this cutie on sunday …

along with his mom & dad .. they make such a lovely family .. i loved this shot in b+w!

i hope you enjoy the peek .. i’ll be in touch when your gallery is ready!

mom & dad wanted to get some family images with their son .. who i photographed in july as a sweet newborn and it was fun to see how he’s filled out! we took a very short drive over to the elm creek park trails and i was lovin’ the colors .. too bad it wasn’t warmer .. but we made do!

loved little H’s look on this one!

thanks mom & dad for having me out again to photograph you & little H .. he’s such a cutie and you make such a wonderful family!

mom wasn’t able to be at the session with miss M and so i’m sure she is anxious to see what we accomplished during our time!

miss M has personality overload (which i love!!) but i’m sure mom was home hoping that she would listen and be good and do as instructed .. and worried that all the shots would be like this ..

and well .. we did get quite a few with the thumbs-up …

but miss M listened so well and was just so fun to talk with and be funny with .. that we managed to get some without

mom .. i’ll let you know when i have the rest of the gallery ready .. and thanks for entrusting miss M to me for her session .. she really did fabulous!

i had the pleasure of meeting these three adorable kiddos last week ..

big sister was so sweet ..

and i loved her younger brother’s outfit (and this expression!) .. mom said he picked it out all by himself and she is her little ‘alex p. keaton’ from family ties! loved it!!

and finally the youngest of the family .. he was too adorable .. this age is one of my favorites!

i hope you enjoy the peek mom & dad .. you have a lovely family!

we managed to sneak this session in at the last minute .. and i’m so glad we did as its going to be COLD out this weekend .. maybe even .. dare i say it .. snowing! luckily this day turned out to be beautiful and we enjoyed a fun morning at the apple orchard (apple jack’s in delano) ..

besides apples we found a little friend ..

and then some yummy raspberries that B shared with his dad!

thanks again for lunch mom & dad .. hope you enjoy your peek and i’ll let you know when your gallery is ready!
stay warm

even though the weather wasn’t ideal the family and location was! and mom was thrilled that she was able to get G out of his usual sweatpants and into some jeans .. even if only for an hour. i think he looks quite good in them ..

thanks so much mom & dad for having me out again to capture your family .. hope you enjoy the peek ..

i’ll be in touch when your gallery is ready .. have a great week!

and thank goodness she does .. as i needed to get some practice using artificial lighting (OCF .. off camera flash) and today was the perfect day for it as it was totally dreary outside …

not sure on the processing here .. trying to go outside my 9 dots .. and ugh i need to fix my blog resizing action .. her fingers are NOT cutoff on the proof!
