Holiday Photos That Don’t Reflect Your Family’s Style

Do you ever feel like the typical holiday photos don’t really reflect who your family is? Maybe they’re too busy, overdone, or just not your style. You want something more timeless, a look that feels authentic and beautiful, without all the flashy decorations that overshadow the moment. It can be frustrating to find the right setting that truly matches the aesthetic you envision for your family’s holiday portraits.

Timeless, Elegant Holiday Portraits that Feel Like You

Imagine holiday portraits where the focus is entirely on your family – classic, refined, and beautifully simple. My studio offers the perfect backdrop for creating images that feel authentic to your family, with subtle holiday décor that adds just the right touch of seasonal charm. You can have elegant, timeless photos that you’ll love displaying year after year. Let’s make this vision a reality with my Holiday Studio Mini Sessions.

Wouldn't it be great to have holiday photos that truly reflect your family’s style – simple, elegant, and timeless – without the overdone holiday clutter?

Personalized Styling to Make Your Vision Come to Life

Your experience starts with tailored guidance, from outfit coordination to session styling. I take the time to understand your family's unique style and preferences, providing access to my studio wardrobe if desired. With my eye for detail and understanding of timeless, classic aesthetics, I make sure every part of your session is set up to reflect exactly what you want for your holiday photos. You can trust that everything is aligned with your vision before you even step into the studio.

An Elegant Studio Setup that Enhances Your Family’s Beauty

When you arrive at my studio, you’ll step into a beautifully curated space, designed to enhance your family’s natural beauty. My approach to photography ensures that the focus stays on your family, with subtle holiday décor adding just the right amount of festive charm. I create an environment where everyone feels comfortable and at ease, capturing the connection between your loved ones through timeless, elegant images.

Timeless Photos You’ll Love for Years to Come

As a result of working with me, you’ll walk away with more than just photos – you’ll have a collection of stunning, professional portraits that feel authentically you. These images will become part of your family’s legacy, displayed proudly during the holidays and beyond. The transformation is clear: from wondering how to create meaningful holiday photos to owning a set of timeless, cherished images that truly capture your family’s essence.

Michele is delightful! Her images are always beautiful and she is very patient with kids. I would highly recommend her! - Rachel W.

Holiday Cheer, Studio Style – Timeless Portraits with Michele

Hi there! I'm Michele, a family photographer with over 15 years of experience, and I have a passion for capturing those cozy, heartfelt moments that make the holiday season so special. My studio in Northeast Minneapolis, with its natural light and subtle holiday décor, is the perfect space to create timeless portraits for your family this season.

While I love the festive outdoor settings, there's something truly magical about the simplicity and elegance of studio sessions. Whether it’s the soft glow of holiday lights or the classic charm of timeless portraits, my studio provides a beautiful backdrop to focus on what matters most – your family.

When I’m not photographing, I’m spending time with my daughter, who’s a senior in high school, or snap chatting with my son, who’s now off at college. Seeing how quickly they’ve grown reminds me why preserving these memories is so important – for you and your family.

I can't wait to welcome you into the studio and help create stunning, lasting holiday memories together!
