Finishing up Olive’s senior pictures with a few from her second session at Ritter Farm Park. 🤍

We had a beautiful evening for pictures, and I love how different these are from her first session. She brought two great outfits, some fresh flowers, and we had plenty of the park to work with.

I really enjoyed getting to spend two sessions with Olive and capture so many different pictures for her senior year. There are definitely a lot of favorites!

Olive’s first senior session ☀️

We had such a beautiful morning exploring Northfield and capturing a little bit of everything — downtown, color, gardens, and plenty of personality along the way.

So many favorites from this one, and we’re only getting started. ❤️

Beautiful Senior Session from last weekend, this time with Payton at Ritter Farm Park in Lakeville. 🤍

We had such a beautiful morning for pictures and were able to use so many different areas of the park. The wildflowers were still blooming, the morning light was perfect, and I absolutely loved her outfit choices for this location.

I had such a great time getting to know Payton a little more throughout the morning. I have so many favorites from her session and am excited to finally start sharing some of them!

There was something so easy and genuine about this morning with Harper. 🤍

Books, flowers, her favorite things, her pup, bare feet, and a little morning sunshine — all the pieces that made this session feel like her.

Harper, you were an absolute joy to photograph. I love how these turned out. 🤍

One of my favorite parts of being a photographer isn't just creating images—it's getting to know the incredible people and families I have the privilege of working with. Every session tells a different story, and I am always grateful when clients trust me to capture these moments in their lives.

I recently added a few new testimonials to my website, and reading their kind words reminded me why I love what I do so much. Thank you to every client who has invited me into their lives, shared their stories, and allowed me to preserve memories for them.

Happy Spring 🤍 (even if it’s still a little chilly out)

I’ve opened up a small number of sessions for spring, summer, and fall. With a move coming up and continued focus on my full-time role, I’m being really intentional with how many I take on — so availability is limited - this thing of passion I have for photography and creating memories may be freelance - but it is a large joy in my life.

Weekday evenings and select weekend mornings/evenings are open, with May having the most flexibility and June filling up quickly.

I also updated my website — there’s a refreshed portfolio and a much easier way to view session options and book directly.

I’m expanding where I’m shooting this year, too — more of southern Minnesota and the Twin Cities.

If you’ve been thinking about booking, you can head to my site or message me, and we’ll figure out a time that works.

I’m really grateful for everyone who continues to support me — it means more than you know 🤍 as a thank you, if you refer someone who secures a session and mentions you - you will receive 25% off your next session.
