I love music. It has always been a huge part of my life. I enjoy singing and would love to one day be able to play the guitar and piano. I envy those who can do these things! I am blown away by the incredible and talented senior I met in the fall of 2015. I would like to introduce you to Abby, Class of 2016 senior at Albert Lea High School. I would love to call her a master of musical instruments, but I know she would be bashful in her own humbling way and say "oh no I have so much more to learn!" Check out Abby's senior session blog!

Since I have been in business as a local twin cities portrait photographer at Monda Goette Photography, there have been many great stories told through my eyes. But this year - this year it felt different. In 2015, my clients have captivated me and challenged me to take my art to a whole new level.  Read on!

Reintroducing Hunter, Class of 2016 senior from South St. Paul Secondary. Hunter is one of my model reps for my senior model program this year. Join in as I take you on a journey of Hunter's senior photo session all around Minneapolis. He has style, he knew what he wanted for his session, and was super easy going during his session. Check out his images!

What comes to mind when you hear the words "Our Forever Family?" For me, it is this beautiful family of four: Two moms, a brother and a sister who became magically bound by the adoption process to become that forever family. An amazing story that will warm your heart!

This summer, the Class of 2016 Senior Model Program crew and I took a road trip for our destination model shoot. This year is the first year to relaunch an entirely different senior model program and I was super excited to do this destination shoot with these guys and gals!

It was a marvelous afternoon in September to capture images of a young boy for his first birthday, along with a fun family photo session. I hadn't seen Trisha and Jon in a while, so meeting up with them again was great - plus I hadn't seen the birthday boy since I took his newborn photos! It was wonderful catching up with this growing family and great friends!
