I do love showcasing indoor sports outdoors or in unexpected habitats. It adds an element of “cool” to the photos to do something different with a sport typically played indoors or on a beach. I love to see how ideas look in a place unexpected, like a dancer in a back alleyway or a volleyball […]

Many seniors struggle with what to bring to their session as far as props & extras. I believe that there is a fine line between enough and too much. Start with the priorities. Are you in sports/activites? If so, make sure you have your uniforms, medals and all of your equipment. In this sense, I’d […]

I know, I know… sunrise is so early. However just check out Ella’s sunrise senior session. That gorgeous light on her face with all of the gorgeous flowers at Greenwood Nursery is absolute perfection. Sunsets are equally as amazing, but those session times go quick. If you want to take advantage of that glowy, summer […]

Murray County Central Senior, Camdyn, was literally one of the most fun sunrise sessions! It was an overcast morning, which gave us some of the most amazing light as the morning went on! The light cloud coverage gave off the most glowy light. Camdyn’s outgoing personality made for an extra easygoing, relaxed photoshoot! Time just […]

I freaking loved working with Aidyn, a Canby, MN senior. She brought so much energy, personality, and passion to her session! Aidyn chose to do her first shoot in the Madison, MN area to mix things up and have a variety of backgrounds different from her classmates. We explored grasslands, the golf course, downtown, and more—capturing her beautiful, happy spirit in every […]

Canby High School Senior, RyAnn’s senior pictures were absolutely effortless. This girl is stunning. She had all of the poses I gave her and modeling vibes down. Her style was on point, hair and makeup was on point. It was seriously so perfect! This was the first senior that I ever photographed at McGrory Gardens […]

There is nothing I love more than spending time with a couple who is truly, undeniably in love. Ethan & McKenna are exactly that. High school sweethearts can grow into something beautiful and lasting, as they are now engaged! All those years of memories, milestones, and growth together make their bond even stronger. During their engagement session, […]

If sunshine was a person, it would be Bella! She is such a light in the world and we had an amazing time at her senior session in the Madison MN area! She is going to accomplish so many amazing things in her life! I have no doubt about it! LAC QUI PARLE HIGH SCHOOL […]

Meet Kylie! Such a smart, funny, sweet girl! I may also be biased because this beautiful senior is my niece. We had so much fun exploring Dawson MN for her senior session. Her style was on point and her location ideas were amazing as well! So happy I was able to spend this time with […]

There is just something about these two. It’s as simple as that. Jacob & Kelsey are just so special. Their wedding day was filled with an incredible and indescribable love, not just for each other and their families, but for God. Both of these two live a life made to honor Him and it was […]

Senior photos are a reflection of who you are at this moment in your life. For some, that means showcasing their passions, hobbies, or achievements. For others, it’s about honoring and embracing their culture and heritage in a deeply personal way in their senior photos. Shaylee’s session was one of the most fun and powerful I’ve […]

Not everyone loves the idea of waking up before the sun, but hear me out—sunrise senior sessions are absolutely worth it. The soft, golden light, the peaceful quiet of the morning, and that dreamy, slightly hazy glow make for some of the most stunning senior photos. When Taylor chose a sunrise session, we knew we […]

For your senior pictures might not care about what to wear as a senior guy, but the right outfit can make all the difference. Your session is about capturing who you are, and what you wear should reflect that. Whether you’re going for a casual vibe, something dressy, or incorporating a sport or hobby, choosing […]

Have you ever scrolled through senior photos and felt drawn to those warm, glowy images? Chances are they were taken during golden hour, that dreamy time before sunset when the light is soft, warm, and absolutely magical. As a photographer, golden hour is one my favorite time for a senior session. Olivia’s shoot around Redwood Falls is the […]

Senior sessions are all about you—your personality, your style, and this unforgettable chapter of your life. But when it comes to choosing a look for your senior photos, you might be torn between going for a classic, timeless vibe or embracing a trendy, modern aesthetic. Both have their advantages, and the choice really comes down to what you want your […]

Your senior pictures should reflect you at your best, and makeup plays a huge role in making sure you look polished and camera-ready. Makeup for photos is a little different than everyday makeup! The camera picks up details in ways the mirror doesn’t, so it’s important to get it just right. Here are a few makeup tips to […]

During senior sessions, I like to make the most out of our time by choosing one location and then roaming around that place. Marshall Minnesota is an amazing town for location variety. One of the main spots I love shooting for “nature” is the SMSU Nature Park right by the football field. For Chidi’s session, […]

Tracy Area senior, Amber, was definitely not afraid of color for her senior session. I met her and her mom at McCrory Gardens in Brookings SD. This location is full of vibrant greens, neutrals and all the gorgeous flowers. Sometimes in order to match backdrops seniors will shy away from bringing lots of bold, vibrant […]

Ellen, Minneota High School Senior, was such an amazing person to photograph! Her fun ideas and great personality led to an easy going, enjoyable session resulting in so many beautiful photos of her!! We explored a small park by Marshall and then walked around Downtown to see what that had to offer to match her […]

Emily, a Miller High School Senior, came all the way to Marshall to see me for her senior session! How awesome is that?! We started off her session around the SMSU nature park and got this beautiful morning light, which highlighted how freaking stunning Emily is. This girl is such a beauty inside and out. […]

Minnewaska HS Senior, Colin, had the most epic colors and light for his senior session around Dawson MN. His grandparents are from that area so he thought it would be the perfect place to do his senior pictures. What a neat idea? He will have something so different than his classmate, which I absolutely love! […]

Chloe, a Minneota Senior, was the lucky winner of my senior session giveaway last year. I cannot tell you how much I was actually the lucky one in that situation! She is seriously amazing and such a photogenic girl. To say she brought all the model vibes to her session would be an understatement because […]
