Frequently Asked Questions

What is lifestyle photography?

Lifestyle photography is documentary-style imagery of real life — family mornings at home, a couple making coffee, kids playing, a business owner working. No stiff posing, no studio lights. You live; I document. The result is photos that feel like memories, not portraits.

How much does a Minneapolis lifestyle photographer cost?

My in-home lifestyle sessions start at $695 for 90 minutes and include 40+ edited images. Day-in-the-life full-day documentary coverage (4 hours) is $1,495. Couples lifestyle sessions in your apartment or favorite Minneapolis spot are $495.

What happens during an in-home lifestyle session?

I arrive at your normal-life morning or evening hour. We don't 'pose' — you make coffee, read with the kids, snuggle the dog, cook breakfast. I direct lightly (move to the bright window, sit closer) but most of the magic comes from genuine moments. 90 minutes flies.

Do I need to clean my house?

Tidy the spaces we'll photograph in — usually the kitchen, living room, master bedroom (made bed), and one kid bedroom. Open the blinds for natural light. Real life can include toys and dishes; we just don't want the photos to be about them.

Lifestyle vs traditional portraits — what's the difference?

Traditional portraits are posed, looking-at-camera, dressed up. Lifestyle is candid, in-your-element, in clothes you'd actually wear. Lifestyle ages better — it captures who you actually were in 2026, not just how you wanted to look.
