Halloween {SE MN Children’s Portrait Photographer}

Halloween is just around the corner…   So excited see everyone in their great costumes, watch the kids play the games and check out all the Halloween decorations in the studio.

We started this event in 2010, so this is our 7th year doing it, and with the community’s support we were able to help raise over $3,350 the last 6 years with 100% of the proceeds going straight to Spring Valley Park & Rec!

Here’s a video of the studio decorated in 2014….
