Family pictures at the MN Landscape Arboretum.

These summertime family pictures at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum were such a treat.

After hearing so much about this family of five through a mutual friend, I knew this would be a special session. It was so fun finally putting their names to faces and getting to know them in person. And to top it off, we really couldn’t have asked for a better summer night at the gardens.

So much love and energy flowed between this family. Scroll down to see how little brother is adored by his big sisters. He certainly kept us laughing and smiling through the whole session.

Their coordinating blue outfits with the white blooms, warm sunshine and greens really made these pictures pop. If you’re ever looking for ideas on coordinating your family picture outfits, be sure to check out my Pinterest boards for inspiration.

Are you looking to get your family pictures taken? I would love to connect with you and and help make your family pictures experience as easy and stress-free as possible. If you can, I always recommend booking your family pictures early. That way you have your preferred time of year secured and can check it off your to-do list.

Over the years, I’ve photographed families in a variety of locations, including local parks. But over time, I’ve noticed a shift in how families approach their sessions. There’s more intentionality, connection, and memories made during a photoshoot. Parents are playing fun, silly games with their children, and siblings are fully focused on each other, drawn […]
