About Salina J Photography

Hi! My name is Salina, and I am a photographer working in the Minneapolis/St. Paul and southern Minnesota areas. I enjoy meeting new people, and luckily for me, my profession allows me to do that every week, whether I am photographing a newborn, baby, child, family or creating senior pictures. This blog showcases my recent photography, and will help you get to know me and my style of portraits a little better. I am based out of Northfield, but work on-location throughout the Twin Cities (and beyond) or in my studio in Burnsville. I work with my clients to choose the right locations, times and wardrobe pieces to ensure their portraits are beautiful and true reflections of who they are.

Anna – Maple Grove Senior High School – Senior Portraits

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

Anna’s aunt is a friend of mine, and when I was looking for a model last year to be a guinea pig for portraits taken at the Minnesota State Fair, she offered her niece! Anna, her mom and Anna’s friend Mike met me at the fair and we had a fun night of photography among the crowds and lights. Fast forward to this year and Anna is a senior at Maple Grove Senior High school and needed her senior portraits done! It was so good to see them all again, they traveled to Northfield and we used one of my favorite fields as a background.

Best of luck, Anna, as you head into 2012 and your last year of high school!

Kirsten – Northfield, MN High School Senior Portraits

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011

I have known Kirsten for several years. Kirsten has a sister the same age as my oldest son, and I met Kirsten’s mom when the two younger kids were in an ECFE class together. Kirsten has been a favorite babysitter of my children, as well! I am horrible about realizing how much time has passed, whether it be minutes or hours or years, so when Kirsten sent me an e-mail asking about senior portraits I couldn’t believe she was already starting her senior year at Northfield High School, since I’d known her before she had her driver’s license.

We had a gorgeous evening for her senior pictures, I loved the soft, beautiful light. Best of luck, Kirsten, as you finish your last year of high school!

A Field of Daisies – Burnsville, MN Senior Pictures

Thursday, August 4th, 2011

Senior portraits are among my favorite sessions to photograph – the soon-to-be-seniors always look incredible and are excited about their pictures. When I arrived at Kenzie’s (Chanhassen High School class of 2012)  house and she and her mom informed me they had a field of wildflowers, I was even happier. What an amazing setting! And Kenzie was a natural in front of the camera, she’s got a great sense of humor and a gorgeous smile. Best of luck to her as she starts her senior year!

Taylor – Northfield, MN Senior Portrait Photography Studio

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011

This is Taylor, a high school senior who drove all the way to my studio in Burnsville from little Rockford, MN to act as a model for me so I could experiment with more lighting set ups. He was very enthusiastic and outgoing, and would dance a little in between takes, then put on his serious face when the camera came back up to my eyes. Thanks, Taylor! When I photograph people, most often their portraits are in color, but with the lighting in these I really preferred them in black and white.
