"Lisa is hands down a miracle worker when it comes to working with newborns and children! She welcomed us into her studio, made us feel so incredibly comfortable and immediately like family. She truly wants to capture your personal style and special moments perfectly! Lisa's quality of work speaks for itself and her product far exceeds expectations. Our newborn and 1 year old sessions were perfect! We shopped and shopped for a new born photographer and she was the perfect fit for our family. Will be using her talent over and over in the future!"

“Lisa was the perfect photographer to choose for newborn photos of our son. As first time parents, she made us feel at ease immediately. We could tell right away she was a mother herself and found ourselves soaking up all the advice we could while watching her take beautiful photos we will cherish for a lifetime. The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and the experience was better than we could have hoped for. We will definitely be going to her for future photos of our family."

"My family had an awesome experience during our one year old photo session with Lisa. She demonstrated patience, professionalism, kindness and the utmost care for us. When my daughter was crying almost through out her photoshoot and my 3 year old was running all over the place, I was ompletely overwhelmed and worried that we may have much time to take more photos. She offered to have us come over the next to complete it and to me, that was impressive and yes all the pictures came out so beautifully. I would 1000 percent recommend her and you will definately have a great experience. Thank you Lisa!!!"

Newborn Photography
Minneapolis Studio Sessions
Newborn infant photography is at the heart of what I do. Sessions take place in my Minneapolis photo studio and are carefully styled to create simple, timeless portraits. I provide all wraps, blankets, and props—each chosen for their texture, softness, and style. With a calm, baby-led approach, I guide you through a seamless experience that results in beautifully refined images you’ll treasure for years.
Maternity Photography
Celebrating Women & Motherhood
Pregnancy sessions honor this beautiful time in a woman’s life. Most sessions include elegant images with dresses or gowns, casual fun portraits with a t-shirt, and more sensual portraits with lace and sheer fabrics. We’ll create a gallery of images that celebrates motherhood's beauty, strength, and femininity.
Baby Milestone Photography
The First Year, Beautifully Documented
Milestone sessions capture the sweet, subtle changes of your baby’s first year. Whether it’s tummy time, sitting up, or pulling to stand, we’ll create timeless portraits of these fleeting moments in a clean, calm studio setting. The 7-month sitter session is a favorite for its simplicity and charm. Sessions include access to the studio wardrobe, thoughtfully chosen props, and a smooth, stress-free experience from start to finish.
Family Photography
Studio & Outdoor Lifestyle
Family sessions are designed to feel relaxed, natural, and effortless. Whether we’re in my Minneapolis photo studio or outdoors before sunset, I’ll guide you through the entire process—from posing to final image selection. These sessions are tailored to your family’s style and pace, with a focus on creating polished, connected portraits that feel true to you.
First Birthday Cake Smash
A Milestone Worth Celebrating
First birthday sessions are the perfect way to mark a year of growth and joy. We’ll begin with classic portraits, then move into a styled cake smash that’s simple, tasteful, and fun. I provide minimal props and backdrops to keep the focus on your child—plus a list of recommended bakeries if you’d like to bring your own cake. These sessions are a beautiful way to celebrate, while keeping the style consistent with your baby’s full-year gallery.
About Me
I'm Lisa Poseley, a Minneapolis-based photographer known for creating timeless, beautifully crafted images in a calm and supportive environment. I’m also a proud single mom to incredible twin daughters—who constantly remind me just how quickly life changes and how valuable these memories truly are.
I’ve had a camera in hand for as long as I can remember. My love for photography began in childhood and took me around the world doing documentary work—from remote villages to bustling cities. In the years I lived in New York City, I worked as a stringer for the Associated Press and Getty Images. After 9/11, I volunteered during the nine-month recovery effort at Ground Zero, documenting those historic and deeply emotional months with care and reverence.
Now back in my hometown of Minneapolis, I run a full-time portrait studio specializing in newborn, maternity, and family photography. My work has been published internationally and recognized with numerous awards. Each year, I’m honored to be named one of the Best Newborn and Family Photographers by Expertise, and I’ve trained extensively with leading photographers like Ana Brandt and Kelly Brown.
In addition to photographing families, I also mentor up-and-coming photographers—sharing my experience and helping them grow with confidence and clarity.
Health and safety are always a top priority in my studio, especially when working with babies and young children. You can expect a clean, calm, and welcoming environment from start to finish.
