Minnesota newborn lifestyle photographer
based in the Twin Cities North Metro
AUTHENTIC, JOYFUL, & UNSCRIPTED
Lifestyle Photographer in the Twin Cities
I capture babies & families as they are, not as we think they "should" be.
​
My goals when you're with me:
» Have my sense of calm rub off on you. Photos shouldn't be stressful!
» Capture the in-between bits & details that tell your story.
» Help you connect and look your best without feeling rigid.
​
We'll work well together if...
» You appreciate real moments vs. planned ones.
» Perfection is not your goal, and posing isn't your jam.
» You aren't afraid to be silly and show affection.
» You want photos taken in a meaningful place, not a random studio.
SIGNATURE LIFESTYLE WORK
"Called each of my six kids by name"
"Kara is an amazing photographer. The images she creates are so authentic and unique. She's friendly and personal (she even called each of my six kids by name multiple times during the photo session!), great with kids, funny, and easy going. So happy we found her!"

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
01
Get in Touch with Kara
Fill out my contact form, and I'll get back to you pretty quick! I'll send you some info and we'll go over your questions. If you're all about laid-back photos, we'll set aside a date!
02
Book Your Session
A contract and $100 retainer are required to book. The contract doesn't lock you in, just spells out all the details of working with me. I travel up to 30 miles from Elk River, MN without a fee.
03
Prepare for the Session
You'll fill out a simple form so I can get to know you a bit. It also gives you a chance to let me know your preferences. Then I'll send along prep info, style advice, and location suggestions.
04
Receive Your Artwork
Your gallery will be ready in just two weeks! You'll have the option to purchase prints & canvases through your gallery store. Albums are custom ordered through me.
"Kara is so easy going and friendly that it doesn't feel overwhelming."
