maternity sessions - your way

Let’s talk maternity photos! There are so many ways to do it, and it’s my goal as a photographer to make you feel as though we’ve captured this time in a way that’s just as special and unique as the experience itself.

Whether you want to do it solo, or with a partner or your family - it’s your body that’s growing and changing so how you want to document it is entirely up to you. 💕

Here are some options, along with some images from previous sessions, to consider:

in-home -

cozy, intimate

lifestyle

in-studio -

bold, editorial

relaxed, lifestyle

outside -

whether it’s somewhere special to you, or simply somewhere pretty

fun options? yes please! -

make it a vibe! let’s go to the fair, let’s lounge by the pool, let’s dress up!

every choice is a good choice - just pick whatever feels most true to you 🌼

in-home newborn - baby R

This session felt like the universe coming together just right where it was supposed to! This couple found me through Lucia (god bless Yess Yoga 🙏🏼), then come to find out we know so many of the same people from the town I grew up! On top of it, they are wonderful creative folk who were just such a breeze to be with while we captured this moment in their lives.

in-home newborn - baby E

Each new in-home session I do - becomes my favorite session I’ve done. 😅

Honestly I love these sessions so much. They feel so natural and tender. And although they feel like chaos in the moment (the dad at the end of this session sighed and went “well that went horribly” - spoiler alert: it didn’t), these are the priceless times to capture.

mindful therapies - occupational therapy

Mindful Therapies launched this week!

Mandy offers occupational therapy, as well as yoga services, to the Twin Cities! Mandy has a calm confidence that will put anyone who works with her at ease 🤲🏼

I was grateful to have the opportunity to shoot some photos with her while she embarks on this journey 🌱

Boss babes doing boss things 💪🏼

engagement - T + B

I spent quite a bit of time with these two this fall! We squeezed an engagement shoot, a wedding, and a little personal shoot all within a months time. And each and every time I fell more in love with them. :) I love their adventurous, outdoorsy spirits - and have gratitude for an excuse to take a little day trip up to the Duluth area to snag these wonderful engagement shots. 🍂

anxiously awaiting +2

This family is absolutely one of my favorites (am I allowed to have favorites??).

When we did this session at the end of the summer they were patiently awaiting the arrival of two (!!) babies. They have so much love and I know it’s only growing exponentially. (Spoiler alert - this mama is a SUPERHERO and she ended up carrying both babies full term and delivered ON their due date 😱)
