Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | How to Look Great in Photos
How to Feel Great This is not a How to Look Thinner in Pictures post. This is more a How to Be Your Best Self during your session post. That isn’t to say that I spend a considerable amount of time posing you so that you look your best, but that’s on me. You should...
Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Finding Your Family Session Location
Perfect Family Locations Finding your perfect location has less to do with the location and more to do with your family and how you spend your time. I always have families asking where I think we should do their family session—which is great, I have a lot of gorgeous...

Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | COVID Protocols
COVID is Scary I'm not gonna lie guys, I'm starting to get the COVID fatigue. I'm tired of being scared and I'm tired of feeling like life is never going to go back to normal. I am not a fan of the rising pediatric hospitalizations being seen with this new Omicron...
Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Snug as a Bug
Toasty and Cozy The easiest way to get your newborn baby to sleep through their photography session is to wrap them up as tight as possible so they’re nice and comfy… and then taking their picture while they’re wrapped up because it’s adorable. Swaddled shots are...

Photos Make the Best Gifts Memories make the best presents. The most well received gifts I ever given have always been reminiscent of some memory I share with the gift opener. Now that I have a family, no one is ever mad to get a photograph of us or just my kid. I...
Minneapolis MN Family Photographer | Laughter is the Best Medicine
A Laugh a Day My mom always says she likes to watch movies with me because the humor pathway in my brain lights up more than hers, so sometimes she doesn’t get that something is funny until I start laughing. Like her brain needs to catch up with mine. Comedians thank...
Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Beyond Newborn: Baby’s First Year
They Won’t Stop Growing Listen, here’s the thing about babies: they refuse to stop growing. Every once in a while I ask my son to stop and he just won’t. It’s wildly inconsiderate. Where did my baby go? That’s why I love first year packages. My Grow With Me package...
Minneapolis MN Family Photographer | Making the Most of Golden Hour
Magic Hour When we’re talking about when to schedule your family session, I’m probably going to tell you to plan for an evening session. That is for two reasons; one, the best light ever, in the history of the world, happens about an hour before sunset; and two:...
