A little about me...

Hello, and thank you for visiting my Photography business page! Please allow me to introduce myself; my name is Cheryl Carlson. I currently work full-time as an Office Manager, but I am slowly turning my passion for photography into my own Photography business. Now that both my children are grown, I have more time to spend doing what I love to do! I am a newer photographer, with a few years experience taking photos, but have really gotten into learning Photography, my camera, manual settings and editing, the past couple years. I live in Virginia, MN, but will travel to surrounding areas within about an hour radius. I have lived in MN all my life, mostly on the Iron Range. I have invested in, and am currently shooting with a higher-end Canon 5D Mark IV camera. I specialize in (mostly) outdoor photography of: barrel racing & other horse events, rodeos, animals, special occasions (such as: grad shoots, family, couples, engagements, holidays, pets, gender reveal, newborn, children, birthdays, or just for fun!...just to give you a few ideas), community events, fairs, concerts and meet n’ greets, nature, landscapes, waterfalls, etc. I offer digital photos, or I can order out for prints of any size, on canvas, metal, calendars, blankets, or pretty much anything you would like a photo on! I even currently have various photos on canvases of all sizes for sale! Please contact me via cellphone (218-780-9039), Facebook Messenger, or you can email me at [email protected], with any questions, or to schedule a shoot for your special moments! I would be happy to work with you on an individual basis regarding your personalized shoot, location(s), photo pricing and various photo sizes or product options! (I will be starting to do INDOOR photography as I get more equipment and lighting, backdrops, props, etc...and the knowledge, training and experience of it all!) *References I have done photography for available upon request* Thank you :)
