As a mother, I know how fast time slips by. There is never a better time than now to capture your brand new baby. Newborn sessions take place in my Minneapolis studio during the weekdays. All sessions include access to my private collection of bonnets, outfits, and props. From the moment you walk through my door your family will be taken care of. Each Newborn photo is the product of countless hours of practice, patience and dedication to excellence!
If you are a looking for a Minneapolis newborn photographer, I would love to chat with you!
Portrait Packages begin at $395.

JM Photography offers two types of newborn sessions, a newborn mini session and a full newborn session.
Our most popular session is our full newborn session, which includes 2 hours of studio time, photos of baby, with sibling and family combinations as well. We also offer the newborn mini session, which is one hour long and only photos of the baby.
In addition to newborn sessions we offer a Grow with Me package that includes newborn, 6 months & 12 month sessions.
It is best to schedule your newborn photos before your baby arrives. Sometimes I do have some last minute appointments available but it is always best to contact us about 3-6 months in advance.
Newborn photos are best done before the first 14 days of life. Your baby will be very sleepy and moldable during this time. After this sleepy period they tend to be more alert and harder to pose.
We know sometimes babies have NICU stays and can't get to the studio for photos in that time frame. We do our best to get you in as close to that time frame as possible and email you with lots of great tips to have a successful newborn photo session.

Maternity photos are an amazing way to document your growing belly! I offer sessions in my Minneapolis studio or outdoors at a location of your choosing.
The best time for your maternity session is between 30-35 weeks along.

I have a passion for creating timeless heirlooms. I want to capture your families story so you can remember all the little (and BIG) milestones that come with your kids growing up! If there's one thing I've learned, its that photos will only grow in value as the days...years go by. My approach is relaxed and fun so we can achieve authentic, genuine smiles.

I know the gram has been quiet but it’s been busy behind the scenes! Lots of editing going on as I wrap up my fall season with a few more sessions to go before things really slow down for Christmas. My 2026 wedding calendar is officially booked and I will now only be taking 2027 weddings and beyond! Thank you to all my clients who continue to support me 🤍
Last week I had the privilege to photograph Madeline and Aaron at Lake Superior. This week, I get to go explore Lake Superior and the Apostle Islands. I will be out of the office 8/7-8/10. Soaking up these last few days of summer with my family before back to school! Can`t wait for M&A`s wedding next August in Duluth!

I`m back!! I spent an amazing 2 weeks in Europe visiting multiple cities! Rome, Sorrento, Positano, Capri, Venice & Paris. What an unforgettable adventure I had with my family. So many memories made and thousands of photos captured! I`m slowly working my way through my inbox and getting back into the swing of things. I`m looking forward to the second half of my season capturing your special moments!

Not sure how my baby grew up to be an adult, but here we are! She turns 18 this fall and in just 3 more sleeps, we will board a plane with her sister and dad to explore Italy & France. I`ll be out of the office July 9-24th, so if you need to get a hold of me, I will get back to you when we`re back state side. Make sure to follow our adventures on IG stories!
