{the dog days are over} Alexandria, MN photographer

...and you better run. Thank you Florence for a great song.

I had so much fun with this family! Mom wanted fun, relaxed shots of her kids playing, laughing, on the beach, in the water...wherever. Which to those who are looking for the same, there is a key to get this. Let me go. Give me the permission to get your kids all riled up, giddy, and yes, maybe bouncing off the walls in my cleverly controlled way. This is exactly what "S", "F" & "K"'s mom did. And I always say it turns out to the best photos and turns into what I think photographs are best for...a stroll down memory lane. Ok as corny as that sounds it's true. You will remember the day. The laughs, quirks, sillyness, even the tears (sorry Miss K), and the time of those kids' lives that they will never be that way again.



This one, I just looooove. (Amy just framed it up the other day with her vintage frames and it turned out soooo awesome, and unfortunately, I didn't have my camera that day.)




This family has the most amazing home. I just may move in when they are not looking. Everything looks as if it was straight out of a magazine. You see, Amy aka Mom, has her own business. You may have seen their work at Yesterday's. The name of the company is 67 Cottage. Truely awesome stuff!! Check it out!
First off, Mr. F.

Miss K...with her oh-so-serious-pose-that-she-couldn't-hold-very-long. ;)

And Miss S.





This is where a little tears came into the stroll down memory lane. Nothing too major, but maybe just had enough with the sailboat.




Beautiful September late day light bouncing off the water. Sigh.
FYI...August & September are highly sought after photo days. So if you are looking for 2012 family session for then...maybe calling now isn't such a bad idea.





And here... I was able to make a treck out to their home recently and luckily I had my camera in my car from a session I just came from. I had to show you what Amy did with some of the enlargements she ordered. There are two other 20x24s that she hadn't framed and displayed yet, so I will have to se those another time! But the mantel print is 20x24 cut down a little to allow for the vintage frame (old frames do not always have standard sizes) and the blue frame is a 11x14. If you are thinking you would like to showcase your Jennifer Guenther Photography session in vintage frames, let me know. Working with Amy is surely a blast and the outcome looks awesome!!
