:: Trina's Sneak Peek! ::

I will answer a question that I know has been on everyones mind. "Emily, is everyone in your family as good looking as you?" My answer is yes :) This gorgeous gal is my cousin Trina! We did day one of her senior session today and I couldn't be happier with the results. It seems like only yesterday we were playing some ridiculous game while laughter poured through our hearts (knowing my family, it probably WAS yesterday) but there comes a time for everyone to grow up and Im proud to say that Trina is well on her way :) Before I get all choked up and emotional, check out some sneak peeks. More to come later!

:: Oh hey Spring, Nice of you to join us! ::

Spring has Sprung! Forgive the cliche quote but it's true! The days of layering on clothing and seeing your breath in the morning are finally over, so pack away your ice scrapers and clunky boots and bust out your sandals. Today, I was looking for some inspiration and I noticed that the trees and bushes are all beginning to bud. There's something so magical about the process of plant growth (is that nerdy to say?). Whenever I see it, I think of being reborn. This is the time of year we should forget everything that is troubling us and just let it be (man, I'm just full of cliche things to say today). Spring is a time of happiness and growth. If we sit and dwell on the past, the beauty that surrounds us will just pass by. Here are a few photos I took in my back yard of some bushes, my sister and some lawn ornaments. Enjoy this wonderful weather everyone! :)

:: Sunshine State ::

I recently took a vacation to the lovely state of Florida! I love family vacations and definitely needed one I hadn't had a day off work in over 3 weeks, I was going crazy! It was so nice to sit and relax by the pool, listening to music, and reading a good book. We couldn't have asked for better weather. I even got meet up with my cousin Josh! He lives in Tampa so he took me out for a night on the town. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the trip! Go to Simply Emily I to check out some of the pictures I took on my phone! Enjoy your fabulous Saturday :)

:: The Great Flood of 2010 ::

So (almost) every year the Minnesota River floods causing the 101 bridge to be closed and shear pandemonium to anyone that lives close. This year I went down and took some pictures right at sunset and it was simply gorgeous! However , I was so wrapped up in all the beauty that I actually completely forgot to document the actual flood! You will just have to trust me when I say it was bad haha. Here are some of the shots I got! The first one is my favorite. Could a photographer even ask for a better sky!?

:: Sandi, Steph and Spirit ::

This trio of lovely gals are Sandi, Steph and Spirit Huntington! Aren't they all beautiful!? Sandi and Steph are good friends of mine so when they approached me wondering if they could get some pictures I had to do it! Spirit has been a member of the Huntington family for as long as I can remember and I think she fabulous on her modeling debut. She is no longer with us here on earth but we will always see her in all the beauty that surrounds us. I love these images and Im happy I was able to capture them for the Huntington family. I love you guys so much! Here are a few of my favorites from the session :)
