Doug is head over heals for Beth and I don't think either of them could be more excited to start their life together as MR and MRS in a few short months. In fact, we started off our afternoon discussing the offer they had placed on a home just hours prior and much to their surprise they got a phone call from their realtor with the good news that their offer was accepted WHILE we were shooting our photos! I was jumping up and down right next to them as they hugged and kissed with joy! :)
A swing by the White Bear Lake hot spot, the Cup And Cone, for some treats and off to downtown for some photos in the warm and vibrant sun. The afternoon was perfect.

This past January I was THRILLED to have met them at the StyleLab Workshop (any photogs out there NEED to attend this by the way) when I was in California! They co-hosted, what was in my opinion, the MOST amazing workshop and life-changing kick-in-the-pants 2-days of information EVER! :)
Anyway, today I am thrilled to say that I have my very first FEATURE on the Wedding Chicks! YAY! They have been inspirational to me so to be on their home page among some of my most favorite wedding vendors is a big deal in my little world! Hattie and Dave's intimate St. James Hotel wedding was amazing.....go check it out and leave some love for the stunning Amy and Jocey of the Wedding Chicks! :)

This little gal is Elodie the polka dot elephant. She came from the super cute book that I just picked up from Darn Knit Anyway last week and I think the polka dot fabric I picked out suits her quite well, don't ya think!?! :) I imagine Elodie being carried around by a little girl, playing tea parties and princesses and lovingly gets kisses everyday! Sounds like a pretty good life to me...especially for a polka dot elephant! :)

Oh I love this! The fabric totally reminds me of a frog I had a child. Very cute!
(03.10.10 @ 9:50AM)She's adorable Em! Jill would love her and be so proud of you :)
(03.10.10 @ 10:17AM)That IS adorable! I have that book as well and I am loving it!
(03.10.10 @ 11:22AM)LOVE this. i also enjoy how theological and well-read this elephant is!
(03.16.10 @ 4:54PM)Em, that is the cutest little polka dot elephant I have ever seen. As my preggo friend is very all about polka dots, how much would you charge me to purchase one of your Elodie creations?
(03.19.10 @ 12:43PM)I also love the the elephant needs to sit atop a few books to reach the table. : ) WEll done!

This little boy is one of the CUTEST and most animated that I have ever photographed and I LOVE HIM! :) Henry turned one in February so we spend the afternoon together as I laughed at his facial expressions and he inquisitively explored at each spot we stopped. His personality is major mellow but you can tell that he is going to grow up to be extremely smart and unbelievably handsome! I just hope that he keeps his perfectly round eyes and chunky cheeks!! :)
