I love a girl who shows up to a session in pink shoes... now that's my kind of style!!

Much more pictures later from this lovely Minneapolis senior photo session taken around Lake Harriet and the Peace Garden.

This senior from the Blake School in Minneapolis has a confident, strong, ladylike style and I just love it.

Busy, Busy Busy here at Joy Orcutt Photography!!! Between senior portrait sessions and families having their photos taken for the upcoming Christmas card season... things are busy and exciting here!

Fall family photo sessions|Minneapolis Family Photographer

Yay! We have started to head outdoors for fall family photo sessions! The rush is on now, to make the best of this short magical time which is fall. Jason and I will be photographing A LOT of families between now and the first snow fall. We absolutely love this time of year, its hard now to with the leaves turning colors and the promise of the holidays nearby. It is also a favorite time for us because we love connecting with clients who share the similar desire to preserve a little piece of their family history by having their photos taken. This photo is already one of my favorites from fall this year, there will be many more to come I'm sure.

Thank you "J" family! I loved the outfits, your spirit, everything about this session!

Meet this lovely little family of four. Family photo sessions are definitely picking up now as everybody (believe it or not) is starting to think about fall, holidays approaching and that content feeling knowing that you have gotten your holiday cards, complete with beautiful family photo, finished and off in the mail.

They came to the studio for a Minneapolis family photo session. Mom had great ideas for coordinating outfits for the whole family. I do love those stripes!! And of course, having two little girls means a lot of pink, tulle and flowers! Our session left plenty of time for just having fun, getting some action photos and a lot of laughter. (This family giggles a lot) What lucky girls!

The pleasure was all mine "B" family. I'm so glad you found us and that you chose to have me capture your family at this time! I look forward to watching how they grow!

Minneapolis Senior Portraits|Wayzata High School Class of 2011

A lovely Saturday morning shoot for this Wayzata Senior...

This was a blast. If I could pick a client's wardrobe this year to steal.... ha ha, this would be it. I just loved her style. She has great taste, a warm personality and to top it off is gorgeous! She's got it all. Best wishes for senior year!!

What I love most about having studio in the NE Minneapolis Arts District is that it is so versatile. A lot of seniors want an urban feel to their senior photos. Something a little different, not the same old same old backdrops and traditional shots. There is so much character in and around the studio for Joy Orcutt Photography. We've got cobblestone streets, colorful doors, loading docks, traintracks, graffiti, old junk laying around... all things totally urban.

And with that versatility of the studio we can also offer portraits that are a little more casual, subdued, in case you've exhausted yourself on the urban streets and would like to relax.

This is so pretty Katie. Thank you for choosing Joy Orcutt Photography. I hope your experience with senior portraits was an awesome one!

Minneapolis Senior Photographer|Blaine Class of 2011

It is amazing to me to meet senior after senior and with all of their differences they seem to have one thing in common, their drive. I know when I was embarking on my senior year, I wasn't this sophisticated, and focused. This Class of 2011 senior plans to attend college in Colorado and will likely study Mass Communications (to my urging!! Yay Mass Comm!)
I just really have this feeling she needs an audience...

She really does have a gorgeous smile too... I couldn't help but be captivated by her "serious" faces.
