As a Rochester MN family and maternity photographer, I know one of the most stressful parts of planning a photo session is figuring out what to wear. Coordinating outfits, buying something new, making sure it fits, looks good in photos, and actually arrives on time? It’s... a lot.

That’s exactly why I offer a free client closet with every session, and trust me, it’s not just a rack of old dresses. It’s a carefully curated collection of beautiful, photo-ready pieces designed to make your life easier (and your photos even better).

👗 What Is a Client Closet?

My client closet includes over 20 stunning dresses and gowns for women, plus a sweet and stylish selection of kids’ outfits from newborn through size 8. Everything is handpicked with photography in mind — flattering shapes, soft textures, rich colors, and timeless styles that look amazing in natural light.

Many of the dresses retail between $100 and $400+, and you can use them for free when you book your session.

Whether you're booking maternity photos, a newborn shoot, or a family session, the client closet takes one big stressor off your plate — and helps you look and feel your best.


💰 How It Saves You Money (and Time and Sanity)

Let’s do the math:

  • Buying a maternity gown for a one-time shoot? $150+
  • Coordinating outfits for a toddler who will outgrow them in 3 weeks? $40–$60+
  • Trying to shop last-minute while juggling kids, work, and laundry? Stressful (and usually ends with a Target run)

By booking with me, you skip the shopping completely. You don’t have to spend a dime on outfits — and you’ll walk into your session feeling confident, coordinated, and totally camera-ready.


📸 Designed to Look Amazing on Camera

These dresses aren’t just cute. They’re chosen to:

  • Flatter all body types
  • Move beautifully during outdoor family sessions
  • Photograph perfectly in natural light (my fave!)
  • Complement a wide range of skin tones and backdrops

Your photos will look soft, elevated, and timeless — without you having to spend hours outfit planning.
