I was so excited to join this family in their home for their newborn session. Baby L was so sweet and loved on by her big brother and sister! We had a great time getting special photos of baby L with the big kids, and then just with mom and dad. The natural light flowing […]

This sweet family officially snagged my last outdoor newborn session before the weather turned cold here in Minnesota. With baby boy just eight days old, we got together on a sunny (and windy) afternoon to capture their sweet new addition. I love the golden colors from the leaves and sunshine that made for such a […]

Outdoor newborn sessions are such a pretty (and safe) way to capture little babies! This whole session took place on the front lawn of this wonderful family. We threw a blanket down and took advantage of a few different areas of the property to capture little baby L and his family. His big brother was […]

I know that one of the most challenging parts of a family photo session is pulling together the outfits. From wondering what the weather will be like, to whether your toddler will wear the outfit you’ve carefully chosen for them, there are many unknowns! I always recommend choosing simple, neutral, light colored clothing. These colors […]

Morning newborn sessions are an absolute favorite of mine. I already love the morning, because #coffee, and the light is often so soft and beautiful. Add a precious, squishy newborn with doting parents to that, and I get so excited to capture images that will be heirlooms for the family. This session with baby J […]

This spring has been full of beautiful new babies, and I’m so thankful to have been able to photograph this sweet family again. This time, baby J had finally arrived and it felt like a celebration of his new life to capture these joyful moments. The best part about photographing families with their newborns is […]

Little baby J arrived just as the stay-at-home order was issued here in Minnesota. His parents waited patiently (and I did too!) to get some beautiful newborn photos in late May. We found a beautiful location in Excelsior where there was tons of space – social-distancing – and sunshine for this sweet family session. Baby […]

Little baby B made her arrival in the midst of the COVID lockdown in Minnesota. I was able to get together with this sweet family when she was four weeks old to document their newest member in a light-filled Minneapolis studio space. I photographed her older sister at home when she was a baby, and […]

Our own family welcomed a new baby girl in November, Norah. These photos are mostly film images, a combination being shot by my husband and myself. The snuggles of a newborn baby are the absolute best thing in the world, and I will always cherish these images of our first days with Norah.

I photographed Carolyn and Max’s maternity session earlier this spring, and got to eagerly await the good news when their baby girl arrived. Natalie was born this June and I photographed this new family of three when she was under two weeks old! So tiny, so sweet! It was so fun to visit with Carolyn […]
