Kierra’s senior session at Lebanon Hills was filled with fall color, laughter, and nonstop fun. With her mom by her side and 90s music setting the tone, this Class of 2026 session was unforgettable.

Alexa’s senior session at St. Anthony Main was pure magic. From flowers across the river to glowing evening light near Aster Cafe, this Minneapolis session quickly became a favorite.

Quinn’s senior session at Schaar’s Bluff felt like a gift from fall with warm October sunshine, golden light, and a supportive crew cheering him on the entire evening.

This year brought three sets of multiples, and Max and Will were the perfect way to wrap up senior season. Their session celebrated connection, family, and the joy of capturing this season of life together.

Senior season is in full swing, and Kai’s session was one of those evenings that reminded me why I love this job. With his energetic family cheering him on, his Class of 2026 senior session was fun, relaxed, and full of joy.

Jacob’s senior session in Northfield was relaxed, fun, and filled with beautiful golden-hour light. From photographing his sister earlier this year to capturing his Class of 2026 portraits, this session was such a joy from start to finish.

Emily’s senior session was pure summer sweetness—flowers in bloom, gorgeous light, and all the confidence that blossomed as the evening went on. After a few quick previews on the camera, she totally relaxed, and her portraits turned out stunning. A joy to photograph this family again!

Hana’s senior session at Whitetail Woods was full of warmth, laughter, and beautiful portraits. Even with a surprise softball ceremony happening nearby, she stayed calm and confident the whole time. Such a joy to photograph this family again and capture Hana’s Class of 2026 glow!

Fall in Minnesota is basically Mother Nature showing off — crisp air, golden leaves, cozy sweater weather… and the perfect backdrop for senior pictures! Whether you’re Class of 2025 or 2026, the autumn season is such a dreamy time to capture your personality and celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime milestone.
