Hey, hi, hello! I’m Kristen, the smiling face behind Kristen Elizabeth Photography, and I’m a family and senior photographer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I take a connection-centered approach to my work: I don't just want to photograph you once and say goodbye - I want to be your lifetime photographer!
Hi, I'm Kristen
Minneapolis Family & Senior Photographer
I can’t wait to meet you
Photography that warms your spirits
Hey there, I'm Kristen! I'm a family and senior photographer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota with a love for telling stories through the lens of my camera! I believe no moment is too small to celebrate, whether it's your teen's high school graduation, your newborn baby, or just a plain old Tuesday with your little ones.
I love capturing each special season as your family changes and grows. I'm not afraid to get down on the ground for that perfect shot of your little one or to hike through the woods to get that beautiful golden hour glow.
If you're looking for a laid-back, fun, and detail-oriented photographer, you've come to the right place. I can't wait to meet you and document your family's visual legacy.
“We had the most perfect experience working with Kristen for our daughter’s senior pictures! She took countless beautiful pictures, was so complimentary to our daughter during their time together and captured my daughter's sweetness in each picture! Our entire experience was off the charts amazing and I recommend Kristen for any of your photography needs!”
- Kathy G., parent of Ellie - Class of 2024

Frequently Asked Questions
Deciding what to wear can sometimes be a bit stressful; but have no fear, I'm here to help! I provide a styling guide to everyone who books a photo shoot with me.

You're welcome to text me photos of your outfits if you need a second opinion or an outfit tie breaker I'm always happy to help!
What should I wear to my photo shoot?
What happens if we need to reschedule?
Life happens and the weather in Minnesota can be unpredictable sometimes! If there's bad weather or a family emergency occurs, we can reschedule your photo shoot to my next available date. Rescheduling is free, so don't worry about paying a rescheduling fee.
What about posing? I’ve never had professional photos taken before.
Where will My photo shoot take place?
Don't worry! I have hundreds of poses and prompts up my sleeve! I'll show how to pose and hype you up the whole time. I often hear from past clients I've worked with, "I was nervous about getting in front of the camera, but you made it so easy! I felt comfortable the whole time. I had so much fun!"
Your photo shoot can take place outdoors, in your home, or at one of the many studios in and around Minneapolis. Keep in mind, the studio rental fee will be added to your session fee. I will send you a Studio Guide which contains photos of each studio and their rental price. Rental fees vary between $50-$100 per hour, depending on location and time of year. Once you choose your top 3 studios, let me know and I will reach out to the studio owner to reserve our photo shoot date and time. If you have any additional questions regarding location or studios, please reach out!
