FALL MINI SESSIONS ARE NOW OPEN!
This October, I will be hosting fall mini sessions at The Cottage at Woodland Farm! As you may know, I am also a photographer through my business, Picturesque Photography :: Midwest Weddings & I’m bringing that same intentional, natural style to these seasonal sessions.
Sessions will take place on October 5th and 12th, with multiple 30-minute time slots available for $250.00 - you will get both color and b/w copies of your retouched images. We’ll explore the farm together, taking beautiful, relaxed portraits in a cozy fall setting. These sessions are perfect for families, couples, maternity, or anyone wanting updated outdoor photos before the holidays.

Go check out her flower farm during one of her u-pick events or even better, purchase tickets to one of her farm to table dinners!

COTTAGE COUPLE SPOTLIGHT!
Dakota and I have been friends since middle school. We were pretty inseparable, including going to fireworks and town festivals together. We stayed close friends while I went to college and he went to work. It took us quite a long time to realize that we were both interested in being more. Once we realized that, we grew an even closer bond and have since birthed two beautiful children, renovated a house, bought a puppy “for the kids”, rescued a bunny off the road, and continue to make each other laugh (and occasionally pull our hair out…what little hair he has left).
We chose The Cottage because we met/went to school in New Hampton and now call Fredericksburg our home. We love the locality of the venue; a small town venue with lots of beauty!
“Our song” would have to be Kiss You There by Ronnie Dunn. Dakota heard it on the radio many moons ago and immediately sent it to me. ❤️
