      Celebrate your life with portraits.

      Your portraits are about you.

      The story of your life, your family, your business. You need portraits that stay true to your personality.

      Having a portrait session with me is about more than just smiling at the camera. I want your portraits to be an experience that celebrates who you naturally are.

      Your portrait session will be in a place that’s meaningful to you. This includes favorite or scenic outdoor spots, in your home, or in your office. I want you to have genuine expressions and genuine fun.

      FAQS

      • Where do our portraits take place?

      I specialize in lifestyle and location portraits, which means portraits are done somewhere besides a studio. I travel to your home, your business, outdoors or other locations around the Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Mankato areas.

      • Do we need to order prints?

      You receive high-res digital files with full permission to print yourself & share on social media. I offer optional print ordering through your gallery, as well as professional photo books and stationery. I want you to print your pictures in a way that's easy for you.

      • Do you have props?

      I like to keep shoots simple, and prefer natural posing without props. If you have meaningful personal items you want to use in your pictures you're welcome to bring them.

      • Do you accept Venmo?

      Venmo's terms of service specifically state that Venmo is not to be used for the sale of merchandise or other business transactions. Many money exchange apps have this rule and I follow it.

      Considerations for your portrait session.

      These plans will be in place starting May 18th, 2020, to comply with best practices for open businesses recommended by the state of Minnesota:

      • Distancing:  I will follow all guidelines for physical distancing by keeping at least 6 feet between myself and customers.  I will be using a telephoto (zoom) lens to accomplish this.
      • Outdoor locations:  Summer sessions will be done outdoors at locations that are open to professional photographers.
      • Posing:  All posing will be no-contact, which means I will guide you on how to pose from a distance.
      • Facemasks:  I will wear a facemask if guidelines continue to recommend I do this.
      • Gear:  I will clean my gear before and after each session with cleaners appropriate and safe for photography gear.
      • Handwashing: I will continue to use the best handwashing practices as recommended by the CDC.
      • Reschedules:  If you or I am feeling unwell or have a fever within 72 hours (3 days) of your appointment, your session will be rescheduled.
