“Lisa’s outdoor family sessions are simply magical. She captured our family perfectly, and the album we created from the session is something we’ll treasure forever. The kids had so much fun, and the whole experience was stress-free and enjoyable. Lisa has a true gift for making everyone feel comfortable and bringing out the best in each of us.”





































Offering studio sessions and outdoor lifestyle sessions
Our full-length outdoor lifestyle family photo sessions are a client favorite and one of the services I’m best known for. These sessions are more than just a photoshoot—they’re an experience that your family will remember fondly for years to come.
The Experience
Outdoor family photo sessions are held at some of the most beautiful locations in the Twin Cities and surrounding suburbs, offering a variety of stunning backdrops. The sessions are fun and relaxed, allowing children to run around and enjoy the natural surroundings, which often results in genuine smiles and joyful expressions. The 90-minute session may sound lengthy, but it goes by quickly as everyone gets into the flow of the experience. Even the most camera-shy children end up having a great time!
Creating Heirloom Albums
Many clients choose to create a custom heirloom album from their outdoor lifestyle sessions. These albums are carefully curated to tell the story of your family, capturing the love, laughter, and unique dynamics that make your family special. Due to the detailed planning and effort that goes into these sessions, availability is limited, so booking in advance is highly recommended.
Signature Close-Up Child Portraits
One of the highlights of both my outdoor and studio sessions is the inclusion of my signature close-up child portraits. These detailed, intimate portraits capture the essence of each child, focusing on their expressions and features in a way that only a professional setting can provide. These portraits often become cherished pieces of art within the family home.
What to Expect
Every family photography session with Lisa Poseley Photography is designed to be enjoyable and stress-free. Here’s what you can expect:
After booking, we’ll select the perfect location and finalize session details. You’ll receive a session prep guide with tips on what to wear and how to prepare. I’m always available for a consultation to discuss wardrobe options and any other specifics.
On the day of the session, we’ll focus on capturing a variety of images—group shots, individual portraits, and candid moments. Outdoor sessions allow kids to move freely and enjoy the process, while studio sessions provide a more controlled environment for creating timeless portraits.
After the session, I carefully edit the images to highlight the best of each shot. The before-and-after images can be truly transformative, especially with fine retouching that enhances outdoor fall colors or uses AI to create seamless backdrop changes in studio images. Your final images will be delivered in a private online gallery, where you can select your favorites to be turned into custom heirloom albums, wall art, or other keepsakes.
