Hi, I’m Angela! ~ A Minneapolis-based photographer capturing families from maternity to high school seniors.💕

Light-filled and genuine portraits of your life’s most beautiful moments.

One of the best reasons to take family photos? Your family will never be exactly as it is right now. 💕

The way your two-year-old still fits perfectly in your lap. The little expressions you see every day. The way she reaches for your hand. And in this case, the anticipation of knowing that very soon, this family of three will become four.

These are the ordinary, beautiful pieces of your life that become more meaningful with time.

Fall is a popular time for family photos in Minneapolis, and I still have a few September + October dates available. Whether your family is growing, your kids are growing up way too quickly, or you simply haven’t been in the frame together in a while—this is your reminder to remember your family just as you are right now.

Petite + Signature Family Sessions are available. Reserve your date through the link in my profile.

You deserve to remember yourself like this. 💕

Your maternity session is thoughtfully planned around you — from wardrobe and location to gentle guidance throughout your session. You simply show up and feel beautiful.

Choose a light-filled studio, a beautiful MN outdoor location, or a little bit of both.

And if you’re planning newborn photos too, the Motherhood Collection is perfect for you.

Now reserving fall and winter Minneapolis maternity photoshoots, and winter due dates.

Your family will never be exactly as they are right now.

The way your little one still reaches for your hand. The way your kids make each other laugh. The way they fit in your arms today — even though you know they won’t forever.

Fall family photos are about so much more than having the perfect photo for your holiday card. They’re about preserving what your family feels like right now — the ordinary, beautiful moments you’ll want to remember years from now.

And your photos don’t have to live on your phone. I also offer beautiful, heirloom-quality albums and custom artwork design so you can bring these memories into your home and enjoy them every day.

🍂 Petite Family Sessions in Minneapolis are available for a limited time in September + October — perfect if you want a shorter session while still having beautiful, meaningful photos of your family.

Are you in the Twin Cities area and ready to update your family photos? Book your session directly through the link in my profile, or send me a DM if you have questions or aren’t sure which session is right for you.

One last little bit of summer. 🤍

My final summer mini session of the year is officially complete, and now it’s time to start thinking about fall family photos.

Minneapolis Fall Mini Sessions are fully booked, but I still have a limited number of Petite + Signature Family Sessions available in September and October—and I don’t expect those dates to be around for long.

The biggest benefit of choosing a longer session? Time for your kids to warm up, time to play and move, and time for those genuine little moments to happen naturally instead of rushing through them.

And with a Signature Session, even more is taken care of for you. Your session includes:

🍂 Personalized styling for your entire family
🍂 Access to my client wardrobe
🍂 A beautiful custom location chosen specifically for your family
🍂 Plenty of time for both the classic family photos and the in-between moments you’ll love just as much

You can reserve your September or October date directly through the link in my profile, or send me a message if you’re not sure which session is the best fit for your family. I hope to see you this fall! 💕

This little chapter of your life deserves to be captured in a way that feels as beautiful and personal as it is.

There’s no one-size-fits-all way to do a Minneapolis maternity photoshoot. You can keep it simple and intimate with an indoor studio session. You can soak up the beauty of Minnesota outdoors. Or, you can do both.

You can bring your partner and kids and capture your family before it grows, or come solo and make this time entirely about you and your growing baby.

I’ll guide you through all the details—from choosing the right setting to helping you find wardrobe that makes you feel beautiful and confident (including access to my dresses and gowns)—so you can simply enjoy this moment.

Your maternity session should feel like you. There’s no right way to do it, just the way that feels most meaningful to you.

If you're expecting this fall or winter let's get your session reserved before I'm fully booked. You can secure your date at the link in my profile today. 💕

Seeing families multiple times in one year truly melts my heart. This family came to me 7 months ago for their newborn session and now they visited again for the rose garden mini to capture their sweet girl at 7 months.

And.. honestly I don't think I've ever seen a baby smile at the camera so much! She's so sweet!

Although I'm still in the process of editing my last Summer Mini Session of the year, I am looking forward to shifting gears into Fall Minis not long from now! At the time of this post I only have TWO spots left. But if they're booked up or if you want a little more time I am offering Petite sessions this fall for a limited time. And of course, if you want the whole styled experience, more time, custom location I always offer Full Family Sessions all year long. You've got options.

I'm also now offering online booking for the first time this year. Visit the link in my profile to book your fall family photos in the Minneapolis, Edina, Twin Cities area.

A dreamy maternity session on a MN summer evening. In a glowy field at golden hour. With the ones you love. 💕 Does it get much better than this?

Maternity photoshoots are one of my favorite to photograph because it's such a special time for mom and the entire family. The anticipation, then the arrival. This family chose the Motherhood Collection, which includes maternity and newborn photos, creating an elegant cohesive story that they'll look back on for years to come.

There’s something especially meaningful about photographing a family during the months before everything changes.

This sweet family of three will soon become a family of four, and this particular session was less about documenting a pregnancy—it was about capturing them exactly as they are right now. The little moments, the connection, the way their family is today.

I currently have openings for Minneapolis family photos sessions this September and October. If you’ve been meaning to update your family photos, I’d love to photograph your family just as you are right now.

There’s something so special about photographing a mama during pregnancy and knowing that the next time I see her, I’ll be meeting her baby.

She waited so patiently for her sweet baby boy to arrive, and today is finally the day—I get to meet him for his newborn photos. 🥰

This is exactly why I love my Motherhood Collection. We get to tell the whole story—from the beauty and anticipation of pregnancy to the tiny details of those first days with your baby.

If you’re expecting a little one this fall or winter, now is the perfect time to reserve your Motherhood Collection. Elegant wardrobe included. 💕

Newborn photos should never be rushed. 💕

My newborn sessions are intentionally extended so we can slow down, take our time, and let the day unfold naturally. There’s time for feeding, cuddling, soothing, and all the little pauses that come with life with a new baby.

And my favorite Twin Cities studios have both a beautiful indoor studio space and an outdoor space, so we can create so much variety without ever feeling hurried. We can move from soft, timeless portraits indoors to peaceful, natural images outside—all while keeping the experience calm and relaxed.

For this family, we had plenty of time to capture beautiful portraits of mom, dad, and their new baby, along with the quiet little moments that make this time so special.

If you're expecting in Fall or Winter 2026 reach out. I'd love to capture these moments for you.

You’re welcoming a new baby. You shouldn’t have to feel like you’re watching the clock during your newborn photos. 🤍
