Your baby fast asleep on your chest. Your three-year-old twirling in circles. The way you’re tired but oh-so in love.
This is photography to capture the messy, perfectly-imperfect moments of parenthood and your life as a family.
There are only so many moments you’ll have with your kids when they’re this little, and now is the time to photograph them. Right now, you may save them on your phone or post them on Instagram, but one day you’ll wish you had family photos that hang on gallery walls and take up space in frames. Photos that don’t live on disks or in storage drives but in the hearts of your family forever.
You don’t need me to tell you
your family is growing up fast.
FAMILY PORTRAITS IN MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA
When the kids are all grown up, you’ll want more than the posed ‘holiday card photo’ (as much as we love them). You’ll look back and treasure timeless, natural images of your children growing up and you, a fresh-faced parent learning and growing right alongside them.
You don’t need me to tell you your family is growing up fast.
As a mom and a photographer,
I understand the reality of being a busy family with kids running crazy. Photographing your family isn’t lining everyone up and getting them to smile at the camera. It’s movement and play. Big feelings and little moments. It’s playing with their favorite toys, running around, picking them up, and circling them in a hug.
Family photos aren’t about being perfect. They’re about remembering. Everything that makes you a family right now is worthy of being remembered for all of time. You may put on makeup for the first time in weeks and dress up, but ultimately your session isn’t about how you look. It’s about having an experience with your family– an hour spent with your family playing, laughing, and holding onto one another.
In other words… think of this as a family outing where you’ll capture a moment in time you can relive forever. Time flies, but with beautiful family photography, it can stop for just a moment.
CHOOSE FROM THREE LOCATIONS FOR ONE UNFORGETTABLE SESSION
02. Outdoors
01. Your Home
03. The Studio
Photograph your family in the space you call home– in the nursery, your living room, wherever feels natural to you. Children tend to feel more at ease, and these photos are delightfully candid and sweet.
I’ll scout a gorgeous outdoor location for your family session, and trust me– it won’t be your typical spot where you’re fighting for space with other families. We’ll find something unique and give you plenty of room to explore and play with the kiddos.
Meet me at my natural light studio in a historic Minneapolis building. With lots of natural light, amenities,, it’s an easeful and fun session experience.
kind words from A past family
“Marit has been capturing our family for over 5 years!”
What I love most about partnering with Marit is her chill and relaxed vibe. Getting everyone ready for photos can be stressful, but I feel so relaxed when I see her. Marit’s work is all over or home and all the memories bring us so much joy and nostalgia. We look forward to many more years of partnership!

“I trust she will always provide us the best pictures that showcase our true personalities.”
Marit has the BEST creative eye! I have used Marit for big milestones in our life and small “just because” family pics. I LOVE EVERY SINGLE PICTURE! I trust she will always provide us the best pictures that showcase our true self/personalities.
—Sheena
“She worked so well with our little ones during family photos and made the chaos look so beautiful in photos.”
Marit is so incredible! Not only is she talented but she’s such a great person! She worked so well with our little ones during family photos and made the chaos look so beautiful in photos. Love love love her and can’t recommend enough.
— Angela
“She knows just what to do to get ‘the shot’ when working with little kids.”
Marit is wonderful! Not only does she take bright, beautiful photos, but she’s fun to work with! Also, she knows just what to do to get “the shot” when working with little kids. She came to our house and was able to take the most gorgeous photos of our family in our home. I would definitely recommend Marit Williams Photography. We will be clients for life!
