Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Beyond Newborn: Baby’s First Year

Dec 5, 2021 | milestone/cake smash, newborn

They Won’t Stop Growing Listen, here’s the thing about babies: they refuse to stop growing. Every once in a while I ask my son to stop and he just won’t. It’s wildly inconsiderate. Where did my baby go? That’s why I love first year packages. My Grow With Me package...

Minneapolis MN Family Photographer | Making the Most of Golden Hour

Dec 3, 2021 | family sessions, locations

Magic Hour When we’re talking about when to schedule your family session, I’m probably going to tell you to plan for an evening session. That is for two reasons; one, the best light ever, in the history of the world, happens about an hour before sunset; and two:...

Minneapolis MN Family Photographer | Just the Kids

Nov 30, 2021 | family sessions, locations

It’s About the Kids Anyway I love taking pictures of kids. First of all, they’re way less concerned with looking a certain way than adults are. They’re free from the burden of societal expectations and that’s awesome. And if they are concerned with how they look, it’s...

Minneapolis MN Family Photographer | Why Your Home is the Perfect Backdrop for Your Family Session

Nov 28, 2021 | family sessions, locations

Family Photography Locations Family sessions can feel like a daunting thing to take on, especially with uncooperative children (ahem… and husbands). Deciding what to wear, where to shoot, when to shoot--there are so many things to consider. I love shooting on location...

Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Why Digitals Aren’t Enough

Nov 14, 2021 | print products, the studio

Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Folio Boxes

Nov 13, 2021 | newborn, print products, the studio

Folio Mat Prints My product spotlight this week is my absolute favorite: the folio box. My folio boxes are window frame boxes filled with 5x7 prints matted to 8x10. I like to think of them as a deconstructed album. My first love is albums, I love perusing a book of...

Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Why I Ask What You Like to do on Weekends

Minneapolis MN Newborn Photographer | Creative Newborn Photography

Nov 2, 2021 | newborn, the studio

Minneapolis MN Maternity Photographer | Why Professional Maternity Photography is Worth Doing

Oct 29, 2021 | maternity, the studio

Professional Maternity Photography If there's one thing I've learned about professional maternity photography, it's that not all women feel as confident in their new pregnant bodies as they should. As a society, we're definitely getting better with equating worth with...

"We had an excellent experience with Tasha. She was quick to respond to our questions and easy to schedule. Her prop selection was great and she even made a little stuffie especially for our shoot. The pictures came out even better than expected. We shot during Covid-19 and felt very safe with all the precautions taken. Will definitely be using her again for baby #2."

Joan

"Our family has been fortunate to know Tasha for years. Tasha has taken our yearly family photos, maternity photos and most recently newborn photos. Tasha goes above and beyond to make your vision come to life! Or you can let her creativity go wild and you will not be disappointed with the final result. Our most recent pictures were of our precious rainbow baby. Tasha understood the significance of his arrival and captured that in every picture. Tasha is great with my 11 year old son, she always manages to get just the right picture that shows his personality in all its glory! While managing my husband who begrudgingly agrees to family pictures once a year! Tasha’s work is proudly displayed throughout our house, I would highly recommend her to capture the moments you don’t want to forget!"

Kathleen

"Dreadon Studios (Tasha) took my maternity and newborn/family photos and they came out so amazing! Well above expectations. She is extremely professional and easy to work with. I was so impressed with how well she knows how to pose people to make sure they look their best in the photo. I plan on using Dreadon Studios for my son's first birthday pictures as well. I am so happy that I have such beautiful photos that captured the beautiful memories to look back on for years to come."

Raine

"Tasha put in the extra time, energy and creativity for our newborn photo session compared to other photographers we have used in the past. We adore our pictures and will treasure them for years to come. I recommend ordering photos through her to get the best quality, the photos look like artwork on our wall. Our family photos will continue to be taken by Tasha, I highly recommend!"

Anya

"Our family had such a great experience working with Dreadon studios. The owner, Tasha was super easy to work with and was able to wrangle our wild kids into some great lifestyle photos both indoor and outside! The prints we ordered look beautiful in our home and the quality is fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lifestyle photographer."
