Late Autumn Family Portrait Mini-Session In Minneapolis by Bradley Hanson

We’ve been having mild weather in Minneapolis and decided to use the opportunity to take some quick family portraits of my wife Jackie and I with our youngest son, Oliver, at sunset. Traffic was a little more congested than expected, but we arrived just as the sun was hitting the horizon. This left us with about 15-20 minutes to try a few things. As always, anything involving our son Oliver was a mix of fun and adventure.

These are in relatively chronological order as the light temperature kept evolving. Just before it got dark, the gray sky had deep background pockets of pink and orange.

My speciality is shooting family portraits in an unposed, natural style and wedding photojournalism. I photograph weddings as they happen rather than direct the action, which is often referred to as documentary style wedding photography. I’ve photographed weddings in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Seattle and many countries around the world.

Sunset Family Portraits On The Eden Prairie Bluffs Overlooking The Minnesota River by Bradley Hanson

Portrait and wedding photographer Laura Alpizar hired me to photograph her family and to incorporate a maternity session for a birth announcement photo. She and her husband met in Costa Rica and expect their second child soon. Their 4 year old, Oliver, was sweet and energetic like my own son Oliver!

For bookings in the months of September and October, I'm offering a reduced rate portrait session rate of $400 for a one hour session which includes a website gallery of images. I will travel up to an hour outside of Minneapolis (anything else, just ask me). My preferred way of working is to photograph you and your family in a casual, less-formal approach, interacting and hanging out rather than just posing so we can get genuine moments.
