The Fox Family | Twin Cities and Bayport Family Photographer

We got together last weekend for their family session. During the session we focused on the kids and especially Bennett for his "just over" 1 year portraits. We had fun playing at the park and by the river.

Ava LOVES her little brother! She smothered him with kisses the whole time we were together.

Emerson | Twin Cities & Stillwater Newborn Photographer

Emerson is the little lady I introduced you to while still in her mom's tummy in yesterday's post. She is such an alert baby we had to hang out for quite awhile for her to fall asleep but it was worth every shot.


Emmy just didn't want to keep her feet tucked into the swaddled blanket. She found a way to stick them out the end every time I wrapped her!

Peace!

Pretty in Pink!
I love baby stats (well anyone who knows me knows I like facts of any kind) so I thought it would be fun to start sharing them at the end of the blog posts.
Emerson (Emmy) 7 days
Weight 7 lbs 12 oz
Length 20 inches
I hope you enjoyed the images I'm sure you will be seeing Emmy around the blog a lot in the coming months (and years).

36 Hours... | Twin Cities Maternity Photographer

Suzanne and I have been friends since 3rd grade and spent most of our time together when we were growing up. I couldn't be more excited for her first baby, a little girl (!), to arrive. I asked Suzanne if she would be up for a maternity session and if she was we would have to plan it quick because she was coming close to hear due date. She responded she probably should and would do it if she still hadn't had the baby by the weekend. Well the weekend arrived and the baby hadn't so we spent the morning (of her due date) shooting this fun maternity session.
Big Sister Sadie!
Little did we know less than 36 hours after the session their little baby girl would make her appearance. Check back tomorrow for her newborn portraits.

Fancy {3 Weeks Old} | Twin Cities Newborn Photographer

Little Miss Josephine came for her photoshoot with heels and pearls most adults would envy. Her photos would have been just as cute even if her accessories had been left at home. We had a great time with Josie!

Newborn Casting Call | Stillwater, MN Newborn Photographer

In May I was extremely lucky to participate in a newborn photography workshop with Kelly Ryden and Tracy Raver. I am looking for 6 newborns with due dates between July 1st and September 15th. All babies must be 5 to 14 days old at the time of the time of the shoot to qualify. Participants in the casting call will receive a free session and 25 custom birth announcements when a model release is signed that allows Morgan Mosiman Photography to use images in our online portfolio and marketing materials.

If you're interested or know someone who is please email Morgan at info@morganmosimanphotography.com!

Here are a few of my favorites from the workshop! Stay tuned for a full post about the workshop and more images!

Kasey Thomas - Newborn Portraits | LaCrosse, WI Newborn Photographer

"As long as I'm home before 9" is the last thing I said when planning my trip LaCrosse with Kasey's mom. I just wanted to make it back somewhat early so I could prepare for work the next morning. That phrase was tested a few times on the day of the photoshoot.

My dad decided to keep me company on the, usually, 3 hour trip down to LaCrosse and more importantly the drive home that would occur later in the evening. Since he was coming along we decided to drive his truck. We got on the road right on time for our 10:30 arrival. We had an hour of the drive under our belts when all of a sudden the truck transformed from sounding like a modern day truck to what I can only image a tractor sounded like in the early 1900's. We pulled to the side of the road and called AAA. They scheduled a tow for us which was slightly delayed because AAA couldn't quite figure out where we were on the highway after we told them our location multiple times. They finally connected us with the local tow truck driver and he knew right where we were. Thankfully, it was starting to get cold in the truck and a little boring after sitting there for an hour!

We were towed about 45 minutes back to Hudson where my aunt met us so we could borrow her car. The dealership is only 7 miles from home but this part of our drive had taken us over 3 hours!!! We were on our way again around noon and arrived in LaCrosse around 3:00 only 5 hours late, not too bad all things considered. When we arrived we unloaded the car and my dad when on a search for a coffee shop with wi-fi. As he left I told him to give me a call if he hadn't heard from me in 1.5-2 hours, just in case our phones weren't working in this new location.

I realized 2.5 hours had passed and I hadn't heard from him. We were close to wrapping up the session so I though I would call so he could head over. I grabbed my phone and realized I had missed numerous calls from my mom and dad and for whatever reason my phone didn't ring. I tried my dad and the phone rang and rang. Then I tried my mom when I hear... you NEED to find your dad he tried to start the car and IT'S NOT STARTING. I thought for sure she was joking but nope it was true. I finally got a hold of my dad who was on the phone with AAA, again! We ended the session then and Kasey's dad drove me back to the coffee shop parking lot where my dad had been sitting during the photoshoot. Turns out they weren't open Sunday afternoons so he just stayed in the car and when he went to turn it on because he was getting chilly...there was nothing. We got jumped quickly and promptly started on our way we didn't want a chance for anything else to go wrong. We pulled into the drive at...8:59! "As long as I'm home before 9".

If you read my long story above thank you and I leave you with adorable photos below! I had to write the story down for people to read because it just too much to believe.

I'm sooo glad we made it to their house for the photoshoot that day. Kasey is adorable and was a great little model.



Who says newborns don't smile?

So sweet!




I hope you all enjoy the photos

Charles Nicholas - Newborn Portraits | Stillwater, MN Newborn Photographer

Charlie came to the studio with his mom and brother for his newborn portraits. We hoped to not only capture portraits of Charlie but Johnathan in his new role as a big brother. Johnathan was more interested in playing than posing for the camera. Instead we had mom step in to get her picture taken with her new little guy!



Charlie thinks modeling is hard work!

I have known both Charlie's mom and dad since I was in elementary school, if not before, and both of there families. Both Johnathan and Charlie looked like there dad when they were first born but I can't help but think Charlie now looks a lot like his grandpa.
Johnathan is ready to play with his little brother. He can't wait until Charlie can hold the car and race him!
I hope you all enjoy the photos!

Everett - 4 month portraits

Everett couldn't have been a happy little boy during his 4 month portrait session. I can't believe how fast the last 4 months have gone it seems like would should have been getting together for a 1 month photo session. In case you missed his first sessions you can view them here and here and see how much he has grown!

This outfit was his dad's when he was about the same age!
Could he be any cuter than in the overalls and sweet little hat!
I hope you all enjoy the photos!
