Hello hello! 

Photo by Gabriella Dunn Photography

So excited you stopped by my little piece of the internet! (I’m the one on the bearded man’s back). I am a senior portrait photographer based in Cottage Grove, MN. I have been photographing seniors since my own senior year of high school and two years ago decided to specialize in only high school seniors! 

I am a laid back type of girl who loves to capture the real you! If you are a current junior or high school senior looking for a unique and fun senior portrait experience, you came to the right place!

Okay last one for today!! These girls were just too cute not to post a few 😉❄️
I can’t get over these snowy winter sessions 😍❄️
These two cuties and I got to shoot after the most recent snowfall the other day and it was perfect! 😍❄️
NOW BOOKING spring & summer sessions for the Class of 2020!! These dates are already booking so it’s never to early to get your senior session on the calendar! Each booked senior will receive The Senior Magazine as well! Let’s get you booked, DM me for more info ✨
YOU GUYS! I am so so SO excited to announce a new product I am offering to my senior clients - The Senior “Yearbook”! A beautiful album with thick pages that will showcase 150-200 of your personal photos from your senior year! Something you can have to remember an incredible time in your life when you go out in the world! Who else is excited?! 🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️
I’d say my first ever studio session went incredibly well with Ashley! Who would be interested in adding on a studio session to their normal session?!
I’m hunkering down today, we are forecasted for 6-10 inches of snow and the windchill is projected to be 55 below zero. So I’m sitting here wrapped in a few blankets, wishing it was as warm as this photo @tarynnleonard is and dreaming about summer. Always wondering this time of year why I live in a state where the air hurts my face 😂 Happy Sunday.
For the class of 2020 I will finally be introducing custom print and product collections! I am so excited to start offering this for my seniors - get those images off the computer, off of the phone and put them in your home! 😍 #classof2020 #michaelaeshanaephoto (amazing flatlay from @seanbrownproductions )
Aimee and I had her winter session on one of the nicest days so far in 2019. I am missing the sun so much lately ☀️
How about Christmas being only 3 days away ❄️🎄
I’ve been a little MIA but that’s because with my off season I’m prepping for class of 2020! But I had to share this image of the beautiful Jailee who is on Street Team ‘19! 😍
