Frequently Asked Questions

Do you travel for family sessions outside the Twin Cities?

Yes — I shoot family sessions across Minnesota: North Shore (Duluth, Two Harbors, Grand Marais), Brainerd Lakes (Nisswa, Crosslake), Rochester, St. Cloud, Alexandria, and beyond. Travel under 50 miles from Minneapolis is included; further travel is a flat $0.65/mile beyond that.

What's the best time of year for Minnesota family photos?

Late September through mid-October for golden fall color, late June for lush green meadows, and the first week of January for fresh snow. I book the fall window roughly 8 weeks out — earlier for Brainerd/North Shore weekends.

How much do Minnesota family sessions cost?

Statewide family sessions start at $395 for 45 minutes in a Twin Cities park, $495 for extended-family (8+ people), and $695 for destination sessions on the North Shore or Brainerd Lakes (includes my travel). All include 50+ edited high-res digital images delivered in 2 weeks.

Can we do a multi-generation or extended-family session?

Yes — I love them. I shoot grandparent / cousin / sibling groupings as part of every extended session and always get individual family-unit portraits, all-kids candids, and the full group shot. Plan on 60–75 minutes for groups of 10+.

Do you shoot families with newborns or pregnant moms?

Absolutely — many families book a maternity → newborn → 6-month family progression. Bundle pricing available; ask in your inquiry.
