As I mentioned in my other blog post, I’ve had family sessions with twin sisters back to back this spring season and they are all just too dang cute for words! This gorgeous momma is a fellow photographer and capturing her family every year is always a highlight. Even though we didn’t have tons of sunshine for this session, this location is so green and lovely it didn’t even matter.
I have had two sessions in the last two weeks with twin daughters plus a brother and let me tell you: twins. love. hard. They laugh hard and run hard and play hard and they love hard. It’s so special to watch. Is getting three kids to look at the camera at the same time and smile easy? No. But that’s why I’m the professional 😉
This family wanted to use a lovely flower garden close to their home with an amazing water fountain and that made their photos all the more special. In-home sessions are the most personalized, but outdoor sessions at a park or other meaningful spot to your family are the next best thing. And, when in doubt – if you live in a condo or not close to any parks – again, I am the professional and I’m here to help with lots of lovely location options in Edina, Minneapolis, Maple Grove, Minnetonka, Champlin and beyond. Email me today to get your next family photography session on the books!
This family – mom, dad, and their two littles – have come to me for three sessions in 1.5 years because they have brought the two sides of their families along to each of the last sessions. I love it! Extended family sessions are so important and meaningful, especially with the year we all had in 2020 due to COVID. Grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, cousins – you name it, I love it. Extended family sessions always have a few more traditional everyone-look-at-the-camera-and-smile images than single family sessions, but we make sure to leave time in there for those candid shots that are so precious to have. Plus, who doesn’t love a candid grandpa giggle?
In addition to not charging any extra per person fee for extended family sessions, I also have a handful of great locations around the Minneapolis suburbs that can be used for sessions earlier in the evening. No waiting around for 8:30pm golden hour in the summer when you have babies on hand! Email me today to book your generational family session; the more the merrier!
As much as I love maternity sessions with just the new parents, I have to admit that having a sibling, who is about to welcome their baby brother or sister into the family, are some of my favorite sessions. Capturing the last few days as a family of three are always so sweet and hearing parents talk to their toddler about the soon arriving baby are so precious. This session was one for the books! Adorable brother, lovely parents, perfect baby bump, sunlight, warm weather, love and so many giggles.
This location, in close proximity to Minneapolis and St. Paul, with its towering trees and beautiful blooming trees is a perfect spot for family and maternity sessions in the spring and summer. Email me today to get on the calendar for your own family photos!
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.
