The Mill City Museum / Stone Arch Bridge area is becoming one of my favorite place to take seniors! And I can take them 5 minutes away to Boom Island Park for some beautiful bridge and water shots. It's pure perfection at sunset!

This beauty is Peyton. After capturing her older sister a few years ago, I was thrilled to have her in front of my camera as a 2026 senior. She is just stunning!

You may be a little late to the senior photo party, but you're not too late! Contact me today to get on the schedule for fall senior portraits. You can also purchase a session using the link below.

Happy Fall y'all.

Gaaaahhh she's just so gorgeous! I adored capturing Cadance's senior portraits at Tamarack Nature Center in White Bear Lake. Her dress gives gypsy vibes and her piercing blue eyes are mesmerizing. Wishing her all the best during and beyond her last year of high school! Yay for Class of 2026!

Senior photography is still going strong and I'm excited to post more sessions. Stay tuned. There's still time to get your senior photos with Blooming Portraits. I photograph Minnesota and Wisconsin seniors. Get on the schedule now before I book up!

Blooming Portraits is located in White Bear Lake and is a premier choice for Senior Photography in the Twin Cities and surrounding areas in MN and western WI.

I'm seeing less props in my newborn sessions. I feel like mamas are opting more for simple, neutral newborn sessions that showcase all the baby-cuteness and I'm loving it! This is a sneak peek from Augie's mini newborn session. Mini newborn sessions focus on baby only. We still used fun pieces like layers, pillows, wraps, newborn knits, and even a cute bear. The color palette was fairly neutral in white, gray and navy. We just didn't incorporate any baskets or bowls. By the way, Blooming Portraits provides all of the items for newborn sessions to make it easy on new parents. Everything you see in these images are available in our downtown White Bear Lake newborn studio.

Schedule a session today! Save $100 or more on any newborn session if purchase by 8/8/2025. No code needed. Link below.

Meet Lily! The most smiley, little bundle of joy ever! She is the exact reason I love capturing ages 6-9 months. Babies this age tend to be bubbly, full of smiles, haven't fully developed stranger-danger yet annnnd it's a bonus that they typically can't get away too quickly! Haha :)

All of the outfits and headbands you see in Lily's sitter session are available to use for your baby milestone studio session. Email christina@bloomingportraits.com to book today!

Blooming Portraits is your premier photographer in White Bear Lake for newborn and baby portraits.
