On-location, storytelling family photography sessions can take place anywhere around Central Minnesota, including your home – where the heart of your family lies. All you have to do is be yourself, love on your family, let them be who they are, and I will document all the funny, beautiful, crazy moments that transpire throughout our time together. Every session is a custom experience from the start. You can simply go out for ice cream, play at the park, bake cookies, and truly enjoy any "I don't ever want to forget this" kind of moment. Unlike the Traditional Family Session session, these images are journalistic in style and completely candid. If you’re worried you won’t be getting those smiling images you’re used to, I can assure you there will be plenty of smiles, real expressions and emotion in your photos.
Minimum of 50-60 retouched portraits - color and black and white versions of each. On-location at your home or a favorite location of your choice. 1-2 hours of shoot time. Beautiful downloadable online gallery. $100 Print Credit. https://www.vividphotographystudio.com/vivid-portraits

We were able to get a last minute appointment with Vivid Studio to get headshots for dance photos. April was great to work with and very quick turnaround to get downloadable photos. They were excellent!!! Will be going again!

Our family loves April! She makes photos with our family of 6 a breeze and they results are always great! She also suggests the best outdoor locations to help capture our families personalities.
- Anna Tyler·
Does amazing work! I've loved all the photos she's done for my family so far!!
- Brittany Thielen·
The photographer is truly AMAZING! She produces quality work, was so patient and gentle with my newborn, and provided so many cute baby outfits. She is a baby whisperer!

April has done a great job again for team sports pictures! She has photographed the high school boys lacrosse team and our youth teams. She does great with the kids and take great pictures!
- Maddy M·
Was a wonderful experience! April knew exactly how to pose us and was great at directing us how to pose and get good photos. She had a great selection of maternity dresses for me to pick from and was able to use a few :)
