I have had the immense joy of getting to capture this family since they were pregnant with baby boy #1 – and now they brought home baby boy #3! So much love rolled up into one family almost doesn’t seem fair, but these parents are truly one of the most kind couples I have ever worked with and it’s so much fun watching them add another baby to the family. As always, we did their newborn photography session in the Minneapolis home. In-home newborn sessions allow for breaks to nurse or change baby, while offering older siblings the chance to go play and get some wiggles out while I capture solo images of the newborn; it really is the best of both worlds.

Expecting your own little one? Whether it’s your first or your fifth, I’d be honored to capture the precious few days after baby comes home. Email me today to inquire about current openings for Minneapolis and the greater Twin Cities suburbs.

Fall in Minnesota means family photos galore! This was the first time I had the pleasure of photographing this family but I’ve actually known the mom and dad since middle school which, seems like yesterday, but math seems to indicate it was almost 30 years ago now so… rude. Time you are a weird, weird thing! Anyway, this big brother was the sweetest and helped his little brother and sister get in the spirit of it all and we ended up shooting past sunset because it was just too nice of an evening to waste.

A quick mini session at a special location for this family just so happened to fall on the most perfect evening! I was even stopped by a gentlemen and asked, “what’s with all the photographers?” Ha! It’s fall and it’s lovely and it’s the Stone Arch Bridge area of Minneapolis my good sir, the place is going to be crawling with family and senior photo sessions. This little love bug always makes me work for those smiles but I mean, cmon, she is so worth it!

Email me today for current openings at this location and many others around the Twin Cities.

This lovely family of five were just the sweetest ever. Normally with multiple little kids I have to work a bit for those genuine smiles and loving interactions but with these kids? No work on my end! I just had to stand behind the camera and click fast enough to keep up with their joy at there family session in Champlin this fall. This field is so versatile and lovely year ground; super green in the summer, golden brown in the fall, and even pretty covered in snow in the winter! Email me today for current openings at this lovely field location and maybe we’ll be able to capture as many smiles from your little ones.

20 minutes.

That’s all it takes to get dozens of good images if you’re kids (and husband!) will cooperate.

A mini session isn’t for everyone but it can be amazing for so many situations, like this gorgeous family with two bigger kids who listen well and can take direction. If you’re in need of quick family photos for those annual holiday cards or updated “school photos” in the age of COVID, keep an eye on my blog for annual fall mini sessions and grab one while you can!

Ahhh autumn, every photographer’s most favorite time of year here in Minnesota. Pretty sun, not too hot, not too cold, not too many bugs, no snow yet. It’s win win all around and this family’s session at one of my favorite park reserves in the NW Minneapolis suburbs was pure gold. It helps when you have an adorable baby and a cute dog too. This location is perfect for families who want a variety of backgrounds with easy parking and only a little bit of walking into the reserve. Email me today for available dates to have your family photos taken at this stunning location in Champlin!

Another extended family session in the books! This lovely family has me join them at their private property in the western Twin Cities suburbs and the sun and the weather could not have been more cooperative. The toddlers? Maybe a little less cooperative, but I captured those precious little smiles anyway. This session was a gift for grandma, which is one of the main reasons clients come to me for family photography sessions – capturing the generations of your family are so important, especially in these trying times when COVID has forced us to go long stretches of time without seeing our loved ones.

Have a large family you want to capture? Email me today for current openings and we’ll capture those tried and true everyone-looking-at-the-camera-and-smiling photos, as well as smaller family unit images and priceless candid images of everyone interacting and loving on each other.

This family is always so great about making the trek into the city to have their session at a great urban location! We’ve done St. Anthony Main and the Guthrie area; this year we opted for Loring Park in the heart of Minneapolis and it did not disappoint. Cobblestone streets? Check. Brick buildings? Check. Cool bridges? Check. Great Sunsets? Check. This evening + this location had it all! Looking for a family session with some character? Email me today to inquire about current openings for this location, or any of the other great locations I have around Minneapolis and St. Paul for family, senior, and maternity photography sessions.

Extended family sessions don’t have to be boring and stuffy! Grandmas and grandpa and aunties and uncles can live it up with the best of them. I love multi-generational family sessions where we take a little extra time at the end to let loose and have some fun; for this family that meant getting in the water! This setting in the west metro of the Twin Cities offers so many great options for regular and extended family sessions and has tons of free parking (something that can be hard to come by in Minneapolis or St. Paul proper).
