• Hi! Thanks for stopping by! I'm Christina... a wife, a mommy of two gorgeous little ones, a dedicated (addicted) shopper and a baby & child portrait photographer located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

    I specialize in newborn, baby & children's contemporary photography & I love what I do! My style as been described as part contemporary, part classic and part lifestyle. What could be better than capturing a moment and creating art that will be cherished for years to come?

    We were honored to be nominated in Nickelodeon's Parents Pick 2010 for Best Family Photographer in Minneapolis & St. Paul. We made the cut from 35 amazing local photographers to the top 5!

    chrissie marie photography is a member of the National Association of Professional Child Photographers & United Professional Portrait Association.

    Every year I promise to be better about "blogging" and well...I am still not very good. I have good intentions about posting more sessions, sharing my shopping finds, doing "what to wear" features but honestly balance is huge to me & rather than blogging I enjoy spending time with my family, enjoying life or being behind the camera! Maybe next year "blogging" will be a focus...maybe!

    Take a peak...leave some love & I can't wait to meet you & capture your life! xo

Fashion Friday {by Anne} | Minnesota Child & Family Photography

Wow! I’m loving all the beautiful fall colors! If you have a photo session coming up it’s such a great time to take advantage of the bright reds and oranges, rich browns, deep blues and purples that we’re seeing in a lot of the fall clothes.

Try mixing texture and color…if you have a great plaid for one child try doing a solid color chunky knit for your other child–it will add interest to your photo without too much pattern. Some of my favorite patterns this fall are houndstooth and argyle for boys and for girls anything from paisley to plaid. I’ve seen so many great looks in all these prints!

Share your ideas with me! I’d love to hear what you’re loving for yourself and your kids this fall!

And don’t forget to follow us on pin our favorite looks on our CM Fashion Board!
