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.

Alex – Lakeville Senior Portraits

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Just a few weeks ago I met up with Alex (beginning his senior year at Lakeville North high school next week; ah, I remember when little old Lakeville had just one high school!) for his senior portraits. We headed to the Mill City area in Minneapolis and made some photographs near Orchard Lake.

Here are a few of Alex’s favorites from our session! Have to love the outtake I grabbed of him on his phone – if that’s not an image parents see from their teenagers on a daily basis, I’m not sure what is!


Never Too Early to Plan – Minnesota Fall Color Portraits

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

I know what you’re thinking – summer hasn’t even had a chance to begin and I’m asking you to consider dates for fall portraits? But we all know how swiftly summer will come and go, and before we can say “Labor Day,”  the air will turn crisp and the trees will display their glorious, rich colors. Autumn is prime time for families to schedule sessions with their favorite photographer, and dates go quickly. In the last couple of weeks I’ve begun booking for September and October, so if you are considering a fall session for yourself or your kids, give me a call or send me an e-mail so we can pick the perfect time.

As for the summer months, July has only a few open dates. I know high school seniors, especially, like getting portraits done in the summer, and it’s a great time of year for early evening sessions for anyone, when the sun is still out and it’s not too cold close to sunset.

In honor of our 50 and 60 degree weather this week, I leave you with a warm picture of two happy boys from last fall.

Nicole – Minneapolis Senior Photographer

Monday, May 31st, 2010

This is Nicole, who will be a senior in Lakeville this coming fall. She has the most amazing amber-colored eyes, they just pop right out of her portraits. Gorgeous! I loved Nicole’s choice of clothing for this session – the blue is bright and complements her blonde hair and light eyes, and the brown top worked well for the urban/industrial background we shot at later on.

Carlie – Minnesota Senior Photographer

More high school portraits, and yet another gorgeous Lakeville teenager. Carlie was a lot of fun, it’s clear she feels comfortable in front of a camera by her natural smiles!
