At Tiny Hearts Studio, whether you’re here for a maternity session or coming in with your newborn or family, we want you to feel gorgeous! Our studio photographers will help you with choosing outfits and posing, and our amazing makeup artist, Marisol, can help you look and feel your absolute best!

Why a Professional Makeup Artist?

While you’re certainly welcome to do your own makeup, there are a couple of reasons you might want to go with a professional. First is the experience. A photoshoot should feel glamorous and fun—and getting your makeup done by a pro makes it even more special. There’s also the fact that makeup for photography tends to be heavier than what you wear on a daily basis. With a professional makeup artist like Marisol, you can be confident that your makeup is just right and will photograph beautifully. After all, these photos are your treasured memories, and you want them to be perfect!

How to Add Makeup Services to Your Photography Package

If you’d like to add makeup services to your photography session, please get in touch with us! We’d be happy to get you scheduled prior to your session. Makeup generally takes about an hour and your session will take about an hour and a half (for maternity) to two or three hours (for newborn), so please plan accordingly!

St. Cloud, MN Baby Photographer | Brother and Sister Milestone Session

It isn’t too often that I get a brother and sister in together for a milestone session! This family wasn’t able to get newborn photos because baby was born early and mom was sick. But just as baby boy was turning 3 months, their daughter was getting ready to celebrate her third birthday, so it turned out to be the perfect time to get pictures!

These parents were a little worried about how the session would go. The little guy is a fussy baby and doesn’t tolerate much at a time. And although the camera loves their daughter she doesn’t feel the same way! Dad bribed her with the promise of ice fishing that weekend if she did well at the shoot. (Smart guy!) They’ve never had good, smiley photos of her, so they were thrilled with what a great job she did! They said she felt really comfortable in the studio—which I love to hear! But I’m sure Dad’s bribe helped too!

Sometimes all it takes is a little creativity—and quick camera work before baby gets fussy—to make a session go way more smoothly than you ever expected! If you have concerns about how your little one will do for their milestone session, don’t hesitate to ask questions! As a St. Cloud, MN baby photographer I’ve seen it all and I have plenty of tips you can try!
