Monday, I was shooting an adorable couple and their fabulous pooches (I'll share those images soon). While wandering around the lake, I noticed the grass moving beneath us. I zoomed in and watched for a few moments. I very quickly realized there were thousands of baby toads hopping everywhere! I was so uber excited that after the session I rushed home to pick up my kids. They grabbed a few buckets and off we went, back to the lake. When we got to the park Grant just screamed with joy and Olivia continually said, "the toads are sooooo hoppy!" : )
It might just be the excited mom in me but I'd have to say this was one of the highlights of our summer, so far. After a decent amount of time, we asked the kids to carefully release the toads. Olivia was pretty sad she had to send all her "little buddies" away but declared they should go find their mommies and go to sleep for the night. xo I've been shooting a lot with my macro this spring and thought I'd share a few of my favorites! A very real dream of mine is to see these beauties hanging on bland walls...So, in the spirit of having them showcased, I'll ask each of you to tell me (by leaving a comment below) which image is your favorite and why you love it.
In just a few weeks, I'll pick one random person to have their very own 8x10 fine art print! xo With this odd Minnesota weather we've had, we decided to pushed their engagement session out as far as we could in hopes of some beautiful floral landscapes sans rain and snow. With that said, we were still nearly rained out the day of their engagement session. We waited out the rain for over and hour but as things always do everything worked out as planned. I am excited to introduce the world to this incredible couple and their love for each other.
