    Located just 5 minutes from Lanesboro, Minnesota is the beautiful and quiet little town of Whalan. Tucked away at the edge of town is Cedar Valley Resort. Cedar Valley is an absolutely gorgeous lodging property with many log cabins tucked into the bluffs. Last Wednesday I met part of the Thompson family down at this resort for a family photo session. The family was from all of the United States and it was a treat to get to spend some time with them photographing them while they were all together on vacation. Several of the family members were from much warmer places (Florida and California), but they even braved our “warm” late November temperatures in the 40′s to get a few outside pictures at the end of our session. Here are a few of the images I liked the best from the day.

    Elaine & Harvey had their family together down in Whalan last week for a reunion and thought it would be fun to have some pictures to commemorate the occasion. Little Ella and Ian were so fun to work with & really loved those puppies Grandma gave them. It rained most of the day, but as luck would have it the clouds stopped the bad weather for just long enough. We managed to get outside for a few minutes and got some lovely fall photos.

    Little Ella's eyes just captured me.

    What a beautiful little family

    Mike, Lynne & Ian had so many smiles for the camera

    Ella had just gotten this princess costume for Halloween. I think she looks very royal in this image as she fixes her crown.

    I had the privilege over Memorial Weekend to photograph Marg and Milt and their beautiful family. They were together for a family vacation at Cedar Valley Resort in Whalen, Minnesota to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. Here are my favorites.
