Kristen was absolutely wonderful to work with! From the set-ups to the outfits and headbands, I could tell she was very intentional and thoughtful in making sure everything looked cohesive. My 3 year old also had fun! We are thankful we got to work with Kristen to capture these special moments.

Kristen is an amazing photographer! She's done maternity, newborn, sitting/breastfeeding, and most recently wedding pictures for me. I would not trust anyone but her. The thought and time she puts into her sessions is amazing. She is so thoughtful and strives to make each session special and unique. She takes the time to ensure even the smallest detail is perfect, such as the clasp on a necklace, the way a blanket is laid out, to even how to trees in the background look. Kristen has captured such special moments in my life and each picture I have, I know was shot with love and care.

We LOVE our family photos from Kristen. She was extremely easy to work with and very patient with our toddler! She was also very responsive to emails, on time for our session, and had our photos back to us really quickly. Would highly recommend working with her for family photos!

Had a fantastic experience with Kristen. The pictures were beautiful and she even got my daughter to smile, which rarely happens.

Kristen photographed my family after we received sad news about one of our dogs. We wanted family pictures with them and she was more than wonderful to work with. She was up for a challenge working with an eleven month old and two dogs on a chilly day and she captured our family perfectly. I highly recommend her!

We brought our son to Kristen for a newborn shoot and it was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience. She is truly a pro's pro and we were very impressed with her studio and the amount of planning and customization that went into our session. I'm definitely planning on going back for future photo sessions!

Kristen was very patient during our 1 year old's milestone photo session. She was also willing to meet us at a park near our home to take some family photos last fall. She does exceptional work and stays true to the image during touchups. She offers multiple package options with various prices which helped us fit the photos into our budget. She also gives you the option to buy additional photos if you have a hard time staying under the limit (and I always go over the limit).

Kristen was so patient with my newborn! We realized a few photos/poses in that he wasn’t a fan of being swaddled around his hips/legs, and she was very adaptive and innovative to work around this and still take great photos. (We learned about a month later that he has hip dysplasia, so I think this is why he was so against swaddling during his photos).

This is my first baby, so I wasn’t sure what to expect with newborn photos. It’s very relieving to not have to worry about bringing outfits since everything is provided, and allowed for an easier session.

Kristen was wonderful to work with for my son's senior portraits! She was very responsive to all my question via email, gave us many options for great locations to shoot at, provided helpful wardrobe suggestions, and was overall a blast to hang out with on a Saturday afternoon. The proofs we received were GORGEOUS and she got them back to us much faster than I ever imagined. I will definitely be using her for my other two boy's senior portraits when the time comes.

"Kristen was so much fun to work with! She is amazingly talented and worked so well with our (at the time) 6 day old baby! She was so patient, kind and gentle with our daughter and is truly a baby whisper! When we arrived she was so prepared and had everything ready to go! She even knitted a wrap to match the color we requested prior to us coming-so thoughtful and dedicated! Kristen went above and beyond with our session and the final product exceeded our expectation! I highly recommend anyone considering to get newborn photos done to book a session with Kristen-you will not be disappointed!! These are photos we will cherish forever! Thank you so much Kristen 💗☺️"  - Shakopee, MN

"Kristen Herber Photography took our Christmas photographs this year. We showed up to the most beautiful outdoor set up. She worked hard to capture our busy family who never slows down.

The pictures Kristen took are gorgeous, we love them so much!"  - Stillwater, MN

"When people say she is the baby whisperer, that doesn't only apply to human babies!!!! Kristen was able to take some amazing photos of our foster kittens.

She managed to get the most unique and adorable pictures of all the kittens that we have brought to her studio." - Eden Prairie, MN

Highly recommend her!!!!"  - New Richmond, WI

“ Kristen was wonderful with us and getting the right picture for our first granddaughter.  She ask what you as a customer want and she works overtime to get it done. ”

"I really enjoyed working with Kristen. She was extremely helpful, especially since my photos were taken on such a short notice, she was able to help me get my senior photos on time and took gorgeous photos. Even though I chosen a pretty cold day to take them she was still a trooper and took my photos in the freezing cold and for that I am super great full. Kristen is very nice and takes beautiful pictures. She is extremely talented and anyone would be lucky to have their photos taken by her."  - Oakdale, MN

"Top notch photographer with outstanding personal skills who provides an excellent photo shoot experience. She captured the essence of my son's personality with great looking shots while making him feel at ease."
