We couldn’t have picked a more perfect location too. Bethany is a landscape designer so as we walked around the arboretum, Bethany could tell me the names of all the different types of trees and probably which of the prestigious homes in MN feature them in their own yard. I am so happy with these images. I hope you guys enjoy them as well. Hope to see you guys again soon.

My Sister-in-law was in town with her almost 2 year old daughter.  I told Noah that I was going to the park for a shoot and asked him if he wanted to come with.  Of course, he did.  By the time we got to the park, he was uninterested with the camera and more interested in underdogs on the swingset.  So, I guess it was a good plan.  Here’s a few peeks at the images we shot.  It was a gorgeous night in the beautiful cornfields of southern Minnesota.
