{All The Jazz} Eagan, MN Senior Portrait Photographer

Come on babe
We're gonna brush the sky
I bet you lucky Lindy
Never flew so high
'Cause in the stratosphere
How could he lend an ear
-To All That Jazz
{All That Jazz from the Broadway Musical Chicago}

What happens as a photographer when you show up to a senior portrait session for a fine young man and realize you were his school counselor when he was in sixth grade?
Now standing in front of you is an incredible young gentleman entering his last leg of his school experience.
Drop your camera bag in shock?
Yes?
Feel rather old?
Yes
Realize how fast time goes by.
Absolutely.
Congratulations to Connor Swanson, Eagan High School Class of 2012, a classy, talented, bright student whose year and future will take him to the moon and back.

the moment I let go of it was the moment
I got more than I could handle
the moment I jumped off of it
was the moment I touched down....

thank you providence
thank you disillusionment
thank you nothingness
thank you clarity
thank you thank you silence

{Sleepin to Dream} Fine Art Photography

It's just a little a lullaby to keep myself from crying myself to sleep at night
Oh just a lullaby to keep from crying myself to sleep
Oh just a, just oh, just a little lullaby,

Sleeping to dream about you
And I'm so tired
Of having to live without you
And I'm so tired
Well i am so tired....

{Broken Open} Fine Art Photography

Today like every day other day
we wake up empty
and frightened
Don't open the door to the study
and begin reading
Take down a musical instrument
Let the beauty we love be what we do
There are a hundreds of ways
to kneel and kiss the ground
