closeI always love seeing the Ulstad family. What a joy and blessing to watch them grow over the years and these three sweet kiddos are full of joy and love for one another.
They came out to the studio in November and we had a great time playing on the bed and capturing the sweetness of these fleeting moments!
I can’t wait to see them again soon.
The month of love and big engagements has arrived! Happy February! I look forward to connecting and hearing your love story!
I love connecting and chatting on-line!

When long time clients have babies, I get so excited. Adam and Andrea were married a few years back and I was grateful to do their wedding and now photograph their first born Henry. Being a few days late, Henry was so easy to photograph, his skin was perfect and his little cheeks, so squishy! What a joy to photograph such a handsome little man!!
The North East Minneapolis studio has been busy lately! In between hockey games I got in a session with the Jacobson family! I love how they are so in love with their little brother and all they ways he looks up to them.
If you are looking for a session indoors, I would love to connect. This space has been an absolute joy to shoot in!
Ryan was visiting with friends from Brazil when they asked him if he was dating anyone. The software engineer from Idaho, said he wasn’t and his friends began to rattle out names of friends that they thought would be good for him when Laura’s name came up.
The Brazilian geologist wasn’t looking to date an American either, but the friends persisted and eventually introduced Ryan and Laura to one another over Facebook.
Being that Ryan speaks English and Laura Portuguese, the two communicated through Google Translate and after a few months of doing that, Ryan jumped on a plane to Brazil to meet Laura in person. He thought he might be crazy, but upon meeting Laura, his suspicions subsided and despite the language barrier, the two got along wonderfully and after dating for a while, they were engaged.
Their winter wedding day was beautiful.Balmy 30 degree weather gave us a reason to do all the photos outside and we even headed to Parker’s Lake for photos on the frozen water.
What a joy it was celebrating with the both of you. I wish you years of joy and happiness!
No one said you had to do newborn photos inside! Taking lifestyle newborn photos outside and making them true to your style makes them even more meaningful and significant!!
“When should we schedule newborn photos?”
If you’re expecting (whether it’s your first baby or you’re adding to your crew), this is one of the most common questions I get
The sweet spot?
7–14 days after your baby arrives
Those early days are something special…
Your baby is still sleepy, snuggly, and curled up in that fresh, just-born way—and it changes so quickly.
But here’s what matters just as much:
You don’t have to go anywhere.
My newborn sessions take place in your home whether it’s a quiet morning with your first baby or a full, beautifully busy house with siblings running around.
No pressure. No perfect expectations.
Just your family, exactly as you are in this season.
If you’re thinking about newborn photos, I recommend reaching out during your second trimester so I can save space around your due date
I shared more about what to expect (and why timing matters) over on the blog link is in my bio!

On this gorgeous spring day, I find myself reliving Connor and Kristen’s wedding at Bavaria Downs.
An effortlessly timeless celebration layered with refined details, soft summer light, and a kind of beauty that never asks for attention, it simply exists. Every moment felt intentional, elegant, and deeply meaningful… the kind of day that lingers long after it’s over.
Truly, a wedding that defines what it means to be both classic and unforgettable.
If you’re envisioning a day that feels elevated, seamless, and entirely your own, I would be honored to document it.
