Portraits that honor the real you!

No stiff poses or awkward smiles here — just you, feeling comfortable, grounded, and confident.

Every session is designed around your style, your energy, your vision, your family. As a Minneapolis photographer, whether we’re photographing at home or somewhere outdoors that feels meaningful, I’ll guide you with gentle direction so you feel natural and fully yourself.

GOT SOME QUESTIONS?

Send me a message to schedule a conversation about your needs. Afterward you’ll book through my online client portal. A retainer and signed portrait agreement are required in advance to reserve your appointment.

Yes. Editing includes color correction, gentle skin softening, and removal of minor blemishes. If you have specific editing needs let’s discuss it.

Yes! Tell me right away if you want to include your pets and let’s pick a location that allows pets. I also recommend bringing along someone who can take care of your pet during times when we’re not photographing them.

Yes, and I recommend it. When you want a few long-lasting professional prints and you’re so busy there’s no time to DIY it’s easy to order directly from me in your gallery.

I’m in Belle Plaine, Minnesota, which is a small town half-way between Minneapolis & Mankato. This gives me the flexibility to be a Minneapolis photographer who travels to other areas of Minnesota too.

Travel for the Twin Cities Metro or Mankato is included for sessions of 1 hour or more. For travel farther, there may be a travel fee so let’s talk about what you need.

Because I specialize in location and lifestyle pictures, I primarily do indoor portraits at your home or business. As an alternative to a traditional studio, I can suggest lifestyle themed rental spaces in the Minneapolis area. Rentals can be added on to your portrait session.

First off, I want you to be comfortable and feel free to be yourself for your portraits, whatever you’re wearing. 

When you book I’ll send you a what to wear guide, you can send me pictures of your outfit choices so I can advise you, and I can even refer you to a personal stylist.

LET’S

MAKE ART TOGETHER.

Whether you’re celebrating growth, identity, or simply being here — portraits are a reminder of who you are right now. Let’s make something beautiful together.
