Hurlburt Family – Eden Prairie Family Photography

Wednesday, October 26, 2011

Jennifer and I met along with 20 other amazing women at a photography workshop last year, she gave me the honor of photographing her family afterwards and I was lucky enough to get to do it again last weekend! The boys have changed so much in the last year, sometimes it surprises me they change that fast… can only imagine what it’s like being their parents!:)These boys are boys, through and through… Corbin is a leader and sets a GREAT example for his little brother Hudson! I had a great time with you all, so happy the weather held out for us and we got to enjoy such a beautiful day!! I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves!

LOVE this photo, even if Hudson isn’t up with the rest of the family, he’s still there:)

Tina and AJ – Just Because

Thursday, October 20, 2011

There seems to be a theme on the blog lately, love. Love between families, couples, kids and parents especially between two newlyweds like Aaron and Tina. This summer, about 3 months ago, I photographed their beautiful wedding day… needless to say Aaron wasn’t very happy when Tina said she wanted to do MORE photos. Why you ask? Well, I say why not.. but Tina’s #1 reason, her long red hair.. yes, it’s a very “girl” thing but still!  I have so much love and respect for you both, thanks for having me in your life!

I am NOT sorry you are SO beautiful Tina, nope not even a little bit!

I believe THIS is exactly why Aaron’s nickname is Jester:)

Earlier this week I posted a few sneak peeks of this family but it just wasn’t enough, there are more images that must be shared! I’ve been photographing them for almost 3 years now and have loved to watch the kids grow up, not to mention Mom and Dad are so much fun to be around! Thanks Melissa and Brian for being so supportive and allowing me to capture your two GORGEOUS kids, I’m still on team have baby number 3… don’t you all agree? They make BEAUTIFUL babies!!!!:)

Meet Brodie… he’s almost 3 and LOVES popsicles, Tangled and being a boys boy!

Big sister Riley is in 2nd grade and an incredible dancer, hip hop, ballet, jazz, you name it.. she does it! Even daddy-daughter dancing, I saw the video of her recital, it was pretty awesome!

Boys will be boys, there’s no stopping them!

Have to be quick to capture these moments, never know how long they’ll last!

A moment with Mom… priceless.

Inspiration

Tuesday, September 20, 2011

My name is Ashley and I’m addicted to Pinterest. If you haven’t heard of it yet, well here is my full warning, it is highly addictive. I’ve heard it best described as a virtual pin board, there are projects, tips and tricks, recipes and so much more, then you “pin” them to certain boards. For example, I have a yummy food and sweet treats board that are filled with, you guessed it, delicious food!:)Two of my other boards are photography related, one is inspirational photos and another just has some that I absolutely LOVE! I figured I would share a few, to give those who are new to the blog an idea of my style and what kind of photographer I strive to be!

This is real life, there’s no posing or direction.. this is their life. Beautiful.

Mini Sessions — Twin Cities Photography

Friday, September 16, 2011

Guess who is going to be a BIG SISTER….. AMELIA!!!!:)I’m so happy Courtney and Ryan got to share the news yesterday that they are having baby #2, because I’ll be honest the secret was eating me alive! I just wanted to shout it from the rooftops! They are incredible parents, and Amelia is going to be a GREAT big sister!!!!

On top of that AWESOME news, I’m thinking of offering two mini sessions dates for those who are interested… I know everyone gets super busy when it comes to the fall, so if you are up for a short… 25-30 minute session, 10-12 images on a disc… let me know and we’ll figure out a date.

Possible dates: September 25, October 23 if there’s a lot of interest, I will open up a 3rd date! Please e-mail me ASAP if you would like to do one of these days!
