It's always so nice to work with someone for a second time!! I first photographed Allie back in March and we had a great time running around Minneapolis. One of my favorite parts about photography is meeting new people and making great new friends, like this wonderful human. So, when Allie reached out again for a summer session, I was overjoyed. She's one of those people who is so bubbly, cheerful, and humorous that whenever you're with her, you're guaranteed to be laughing the whole time. The candids of her laughing are honestly my favorite because I can hear her laugh and remember how much fun we were having!! 

The focus of our shoot was definitely color. We found a variety of colorful walls and backgrounds and had a hay day with them. Recently I've been obsessed with two things in my photography: color and candids. Allie was great for both because A) she's always laughing, and B) she does all the things I tell her to without hesitation -- "Hey Allie! Quick go dance in front of that cool brick wall!" or, "Smile at that lamppost!" Oh, and we also randomly decided to take some through-the-window coffee pictures at one of my favorite coffee spots just for fun. I've seen pictures like that all over Pinterest, tumblr, and Instagram and it had been on my bucket list for a while to try it myself.

I love the energy, confidence, and happiness that Allie consistently shows when she is photographed. You're a magnificent, glowing person. My mom was looking over at my shoulder when I was editing and she said that Allie should be a model! I totally agree.

Thanks again Allie!! Cannot wait for our next adventurous shoot :)
