Your portraits are about you.

Having a portrait session is about more than just smiling at the camera. Your portraits are an experience that celebrates who you naturally are. The story of your life, your family, your business. You need portraits to capture these stories.

Preparedness plan for portrait sessions.

These plans are in place to follow current Stay Safe Minnesota Guidelines for businesses.

  • We’ll use social distancing you during portraits when possible.
  • As of March 14th 2021, I will still wear a mask for portraits.
  • Portrait sessions will be done outdoors when possible.
  • I will use best hand washing practices, carry hand sanitizer, and clean my gear before each session.
  • If you, me or anyone else participating in portraits feels unwell we will need to reschedule for a time when everyone is well.

FAQS

• How do we book?

Send me a message so we can have a conversation about what you want for portraits, and we'll choose the best session option for you. Then you'll book through my online client portal. A retainer and signed portrait agreement are required in advance to reserve your appointment.

• Do we get our files?

Yes. All sessions come with print worthy digitals and permission to use them for almost any way you want to.

• Where are you located?

I'm halfway between Minneapolis & Mankato, in Belle Plaine. I specialize in lifestyle and location portraits, which means portraits are done somewhere besides a studio.

• Can you travel to us?

For portrait destinations more than 2 hours away lodging, mileage or other travel needs will be added to your package. This policy is to ensure safe travel. Contact me for details.

• Do we have to buy prints?

I find people like help making photo books, cards or large wall art, and sometimes you want a few long lasting professional prints, so I offer those as add ons to your session if you want to order a special keepsake.

• How many clothing changes or locations do we get?

*With short portraits one location, and usually one outfit

*With personalized portraits we’ll create a session that works for however many clothing changes and locations you want.

• Do you edit these?

Yes. I do artistic color correction, natural skin softening, and removal of minor blemishes. I don’t do things like give you a tan, change your hair color or drastically modify your body.

• Can we bring pets?

Yes! If you want your pet in portraits please bring them. You can also bring an extra person to take care of your pet or take them home when their portraits are done.
