Today on the blog, we’re excited to share a special guest post from a young adult client, Isabele, who recently experienced one of our spring mini sessions with Keighla's Fresh Face Photography. With a fresh perspective and heartfelt storytelling, she shares what it was like to be part of this bunny-filled family photo day, capturing unforgettable moments with loved ones (and a few fluffy friends). Read on for her full story and behind-the-scenes look at this joyful day.
Our Spring Mini Session: A Sweet, Bunny-Filled Family Day to Remember
Hey hey! Just popping in to share the cutest little moment from this past weekend — our spring mini session with Keighla from Fresh Face Photography, a super talented Minnesota family photographer. It was one of those rare days where everything just kind of worked. No chaos. No stress. Just lots of laughs, cute kids, and even cuter bunnies.
The session was in this old warehouse building in Minneapolis. Total hidden gem. We had to hike up to the third floor (no elevator, RIP my legs), but when we walked into the studio, it felt like stepping into a little spring dream. The light was perfect, the space was full of charm, and everything just felt good.
Keighla had styled the whole space for her spring mini sessions, and it was so on point. There were two different setups, both super soft and fresh with pastel colors, florals, and cozy textures that made it feel like a Pinterest board come to life. You could tell she had a vision, and it was giving spring energy in the best way.
And yes. There were bunnies. Real, fluffy, ridiculous little bunnies. We brought three with us, and they instantly became the stars of the show. Every kid was obsessed. Every adult was lowkey obsessed too. It made the whole family photo shoot feel way more fun and way less stiff.
We brought the whole crew — my parents, my siblings, the nieces and nephews, and of course the bunnies. It turned into a full-on Minnesota extended family photo session, and somehow it didn’t feel chaotic at all. I got to take a few sweet shots with my parents, some with the littles, and it just felt like we were capturing moments instead of trying to stage them.
Keighla kept everything flowing. She was so organized, had everything ready to go, and somehow managed to get amazing photos while wrangling kids and bunnies. If you’ve ever done a family photo session before, you know that’s no small thing. She made the whole thing feel effortless, and honestly, I don’t know how she does it — but I’m really glad she does.
By the time we wrapped up, I felt so happy and full. Not just because we got great pictures (which we totally did), but because it felt like we made an actual memory. It was cozy and fun and just really special.
So yeah. If you’re in the Twin Cities and thinking about booking a spring mini or even a full family photo shoot, I 100% recommend Fresh Face Photography. Keighla knows how to bring the vibes, keep things easy, and make the magic happen.

Our whole crew came—my parents, my siblings, nieces, and nephews, and yes, the bunnies too. Each family got photos of their kids in the spring setup with the bunnies, which made for some adorable shots. I had pictures taken with my parents, and then a few with my nieces and nephews, and it felt special to have those moments captured. It was the perfect setup for Minnesota extended family photos, and having everyone together made it even more memorable.
What I loved most was how easy everything felt. Usually, photo days can feel a bit stressful with all the planning, but this was different. Keighla had everything ready to go when we got there. All we had to do was show up, and she took care of the rest. She somehow kept things moving on time, made everyone feel relaxed, and captured the sweetest moments—all while juggling small kids and animals. I honestly don’t know how she does it, but I’m so glad she does.
I walked away from the session feeling happy and grateful. It’s not every day you get that kind of mix of beautiful Minneapolis family photos, a fun family memory, and a smooth, no-stress experience. If you ever get the chance to do a Twin Cities mini session like this, I definitely recommend it.
