An Engelhard Invasion: Part 1

It's starting to become a tradition... the Engelhards come to Fargo and are forced into the studio. And boy do I love to photograph these bunch of hooligans! This time, Dana was along for the ride and Zachary was missing. One of these days, they'll all make it to Fargo!

Here are my favorites from our shoot. I still have a few more to share, but these, undoubtedly, are probably the best.

First, the model-in-making, Chelsey...









Dana!









Alicia!



...and a few with her friend Matthew...









...the girls...



...the Kerzman siblings minus two (Kelly and Kathy) (probably my best picture of these three, ever!)...

Boo to Snow

It's April in Minnesota. What else do we expect?

#3 Melinda and Joe

I used to work with Melinda and Joe back in the Forum days... and, with Joe at the Advocate when I was a journalism major at MSUM. It was a lot of fun to see them get married, and to visit with some former colleagues! They had a nearly perfect April day (aside from that darn Red River Valley wind), and the whole event took place in Moorhead.

















And, as always, you can find more here.

Onslow and Pauline

On Tuesday, Kris and I adopted a couple adorable (and quite playful) kittens. It's been a long time coming... since our apartment days I've LONGED to have a cat. Now that we finally have a house, we decided it was time to fill it with some extra love.

So, introducing Onslow and Pauline. Onslow, as you can probably tell, is very mischievous and focused. Pauline seems very sweet and thoughtful. They are both dare devils, climbing to the highest reaches of our home.

You can expect lots of photos as they grow... and since we're waiting a while to have real kids, you can probably guess that these guys will fill that void for awhile. I apologize in advance.

I picked up the kittens in West Fargo and had an appointment right after, so, I brought the kittens to the studio and took a few pictures. Onslow is the orange tabby and Pauline is the furry multi-colored kitten.









Here are a few pictures around the house. Kittens are a lot harder to photograph then I ever could have expected. They have so much energy, so, most the photos turn out a blurry mess.

Laura & Alex

The Jaw-dropping,friendly, happy couple of Laura and Alex... married April 5.

Tony & Erin's Wedding Shower

Woh, it's really been a Tony and Erin week! This is the last of the photographs from last weekend, I promise.

Tony & Erin had their wedding shower on Sunday at the Ruccolo residence. If my family wasn't so cool, I would want to be in the Ruccolo family. But, I guess, in a way most of Tony's friends already are members of his family.


This cake was good.... really, really good. As were Erin's awesome cupcakes.
