LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY

Family Photography + Senior Portraits

I photograph families all around the Minneapolis/St. Paul area of the Twin Cities, MN. I also do family sessions near my home town of Spring Green, WI whenever I am in the area. I’m constantly out scouting for new and interesting areas to ensure my clients are always getting fun locations and variety. For 2019 I purchased a photography permit for all Three Rivers Parks so will be primarily be using those for outdoor family photos, but I’m open to other areas as well! I have several favorite Twin Cities locations for photo shoots and I’m happy to suggest places that fit the look and feel that you’re going for.

I pride myself in providing finished artwork for my clients. In today’s digital world, the tangible aspects of photography are often lost. It is my job as an artist to not only provide you with a professional photo session but also a way to display your photos. In addition to digital files, I offer a full line of wall art, custom designed albums, and framed prints. It makes my heart happy to deliver your products and see them proudly displayed in your home!

Pricing Details

Creative Session fee: $250

This session fee is for family photo sessions for up to four people or high school senior photo sessions. Custom quotes provided for extended family sessions.

My time to plan, photograph, and edit your photos
In-person ordering session to select the photos you want to purchase

About the Session

My family photo sessions take approximately 30-60 minutes. Senior photo sessions typically take 1-2 hours and can include up to 2 locations (on the same day) and multiple outfit changes.

Those are just estimates of time as I will spend as much time as I need to create a diverse and complete gallery. I promise you will have plenty of quality photos to choose from!

After your session, we meet in person for you to select your favorite photos for custom products. I work with you to create wall art (prints, canvas, metal), albums, and other heirloom products.

Average Investment

On average, my clients invest $1500 – $2000 on a combination of wall art, albums, and the majority of my products include the matching digital file. Please email me at info@katiethering.com for a full pricing guide.
