The time spent planning for your photo session can be time consuming and intimidating. That’s why I’ve created an photo experience to help you with each step of the process. From wardrobe selection to designing family heirloom artwork pieces. I am here to take care of every step for you. 

The Client Wardrobe is available to use for all full session clients. There are a variety of dresses for women ranging from elegant to casual. Utilizing items from the studio wardrobe or similar dresses can really elevate both outdoor and in-home sessions. Client wardrobe dresses are available for moms and then style planning for the rest of the family follows. In person styling appointments are available for mom to come try on options or you have the choice to have 3 dresses brought to your session.

I hesitantly left my corporate marketing job but I had an abundance of faith in what this business could be. Photography was not my intended career but I truly know this is what the Lord has called me to do. It’s so much more than a job for me and I feel grateful every time I am welcomed into someone’s home to capture their new baby or a special time in their lives.

My Story

My style is timeless and natural. You won't find babies posed in buckets or put into positions that they otherwise would never be in. I create portraits that will stand the test of time, capturing both classic portraits and images that embody true emotion, interaction and joy.

The time spent planning for your session can be time consuming and intimidating. That’s why I’ve created an experience to help you with each step of the process. From wardrobe selection to using your portraits for albums, framed prints on your walls or baby announcements. I am here to ensure it is all a seamless process and you do as little of it as possible. The last thing I want to do is send my clients with homework like narrowing down a huge online gallery and figuring out how or where to print the photos. In some cases I will even come to your home to install the artwork on your walls! You should be spending that time snuggling your new baby! 

The Experience

Photography sessions take place in the comfort of your own home, outdoors or at  the St. Paul, MN studio. Enjoy you portrait session! I promise this is not a session where you're always going to be telling your kids to keep smiling. We'll play, tell silly jokes, and have lots of tickles and snuggles!

At your Design & Ordering Appointment you will see all of the images from your sessions for the first time in print. We will customize what your plans are with your images and design baby announcements, albums, story walls for your home and more. Then you leave the homework to me! Custom design is included with all artwork. Everyone leaves with their images in print. Even my digital file package comes with a luxe linen keepsake box full of prints from your session.

In most cases I deliver your artwork directly to you. No setting up appointments for pickup and no worrying about when you will fit it into your schedule. As soon as I have your family heirlooms I inspect for perfection and get them to you.
