Newborn, maternity and family portrait highlights of some of my favorite families in Minneapolis and the Twin Cities area. 

Family

{The Bayer Family} | Coon Rapids MN family and children’s photography

I just love these guys. They were my first ever “clients”, way before I had ever thought about becoming a professional photographer. I’ve known Jess since our college days, and when she had her first baby, she asked me if I’d like to take some photos. Of course, I said yes. I had never photographed […]

{Fall family photos} | Richfield MN family photographer

Another awesome session from this fall that I’m finally getting a chance to post. This family came from Richfield for their family portraits, and I’m so glad they did!

Senior Portraits

{Nate – class of 2014} | Forest Lake MN senior portrait photographer

Nate’s mom was referred to me by a mutual friend, which always makes me smile. But when our friend showed up to tag along for the session, I knew it would be a good time. :) I had talked to Nate’s mom a lot before the session, and I could that we were going to […]
