Mini Sessions at Krueger’s Christmas Tree Farm

I am so excited for these mini sessions and I can’t wait to create beautiful photos for you!
These minis will be outdoors at Krueger’s Christmas Tree Farm in Lake Elmo, MN.

Address:
10920 43rd Street North
Lake Elmo, MN 55042

WHERE DO WE MEET?
*Please plan on arriving 10 minutes early so we can start shooting right at your scheduled start time. Due to the fast paced nature of the day, I will not be able to accommodate extra time due to late arrivals. There will be a few minute walk from the parking lot to the Cut-Your-Own fields where the photos will take place.

Please park in the main parking lot when you arrive (parking in other areas in not permitted). I will be updating this page with exactly which field to meet in (or will have an assistant meet you at the parking lot 10 minutes prior to your time slot) so check back closer to the session date.

*A portable restroom will be available at the farm if needed. It will be located next to the small white warming house.

WHAT DO WE WEAR?
It’s best to keep the coordinating simple. Try not to overthink it.  I recommend picking 2-3 complementary colors and carry them throughout your outfits.  You will want to dress warmly (plenty of layers) since we will only be taking photos outdoors. **Scarves and hats make cute props as well as keep you toasty during your session.**

*Don’t forget to choose something that your family will feel good in!  It will shine through in your photos!

WHAT TO BRING:
It is not necessary to bring anything, however please plan for the weather. Large blankets for warmups can work great (as a prop too) as well as hand and foot warmers tucked into coat pockets. I recommend wearing coats (especially children) for the walk to and from the parking lot.
