work it…own it… | minneapolis children and family photographer

The other night I was driving into the cities to meet a lovely family for some pictures in the park.  It was a beautiful, sunny evening as I got out of my super cool mini van and started unloading my gear.  As I turned towards the park, looking for the best location…I was taken aback by a sea of spandex butts.  Downward Dog, Happy Baby, Big Toe Pose, and breathe.  Yoga in the park.  Great, now where am I supposed to shoot these pictures?  As luck would have it, they were just finishing up when we started, so I only had to avoid the annoyingly flexible people for a few minutes.

Where was I?  Ah, yes…Miss M.  I believe last year when I took her pictures, I titled the blog post ‘the diva’, or ‘the poser’ or something.  All I know, is that she hasn’t lost her touch!

And yes, she does ALL the posing herself….her mom says she practices in the mirror!  They are going to be in SO much trouble when she’s about 14 or 15yrs old!

Love the sunflare on these…so pretty!

I love this shot…it’s just a little different than the typical ’say cheese’ shot…don’t ya think?
