Minneapolis Family Photography

Lake Harriet Bandshell Family Session | Ellen Ashton Photography | Minneapolis Family Photographer

I am so excited to share with all of you the adorable and oh so fashionable, Alves family! 

Let me just start off by saying, I think this is my favorite family session to date! Although, in all honesty, I love all my EAP family session! There is something so special about seeing a family unit interact and capturing the love they share via film. It's just so heart warming and one of a kind! 

I met Brandis (the mom) the very first year I lived in Minnesota and I had the privilege of second shooting a wedding with her last summer. I sent out an email letting all my clients and friends know I was coming to Minneapolis for some summer session. I was thrilled to get an email back from Brandis saying that they wanted to book a family session; I am SO glad they did! 

I had an absolute blast photographing Brandis and her sweet family! Her little girl "H" is so full of life and both of her kids are so precious!

I hope you enjoyed this session as much as I enjoyed photographing it!

"K" had a vision for a posed photo with mom and dad. So, here is a little sneak of him telling them what do to and the photo after was his inspiration. So cute! I love seeing his little minds at work! 

I love lifestyle sessions where you see people doing normal everyday things, like going to get ice-cream as family. I just adore sweet and precious moments like this! It's so important to remember your kids at every stage in their life, and lifestyle sessions are a great way to do that! Who wouldn't want to remember how their little loves ate ice cream?!

Thanks so much for checking out the Alves family session! 

I will be traveling back to Minneapolis this Fall to photograph more family session just in time before Christmas card season! If you would like to book a session or read more information, feel free to click the buttons below. 

Thanks again for stopping by! I hope you have a fabulous week! 

Much love,
