FFTC’s Guide to Family Photographers in the Twin Cities

I love looking back at photos of my littles when they were teeny tiny.  And I  love pictures of them now, too.
We know you feel the same way, so we’ve collected a handful of our favorites from the Twin Cities to share them with you.

This post is brought to you by participating photographers.

Ashley Elwill Photography

Helpful Tips in Choosing a Photographer
  1. Look through different photographers’ portfolios  and decide your favorite styles.
    There is a plethora of techniques to choose from.  How do you want to remember your family?
  2. Meet with your photographer before you schedule a photo shoot.
    Do your kids warm up to them quickly?  Do they communicate in understandable ways? Are you smiling when you leave?  Do you have a good feeling about this?
  3. Use price as your final decision-maker, not your first.
    The prices are fairly comparable.  The more expensive packages include more in the session or in the package.

  1. Please add this photographer to your list. She is the mother of my daughter’s dance teammate and is incredible! I’m not sure if this is how to get her on your list? If not please send me the right steps to take!
    Thank you-
