These are the small details that we as mamas never want to forget. Our hearts hold onto these moments forever, but our minds slowly start to forget what those little details LOOKED like. 
This is what I want to capture for you and your family. The cheesy, toothy grins. The way she crinkled her nose when smelling the wildflowers. The way he sighs when dad tells, yet another, lame joke. 
Let's never forget the here and now.

...those baby toes get a little bigger
...their little squeal and giggle sound a little different
...their little curly cues fade to waves 
...those warm snuggles become a little less frequent

Every passing minute...

Morgan is the best! I was nervous how our session would be with two littles but Morgan was so fun to do a session with and the pictures turned out amazing! Will definitely be using her again!

word on the street

Hiring a photographer is a huge decision. You're nervous letting someone into your life and being vulnerable in the moment. It's an investment both financially and emotionally. As a momma who also invests in my family's memories, trust me, I get it! That's why I want you to know up-front about what to expect when you hire me. No fluff, no bullshit. 

What is the Five Willows Experience? 

  • Questionnaire to help me learn more about you (and your crew) followed up by a phone call or texting to start planning our time together
  • HAND EDITED IMAGES--NO AI HERE, SIS.
  • styling consultation to TAKE THE STRESS OUT OF SHOPPING

  • CLEAR COMMUNICATION AND PREP
  • access to a curated store with the best quality printing inks and materials to preserve your memories forever

Book your session

Have your session

To book your session, you'll sign a digital contract and pay a $200 deposit to hold your date. If you'd like to set up a payment plan at this point, we absolutely can do that! 

Sessions are scheduled during weekdays and limited weekends. Outdoor sessions start around 2 hours before sunset and indoor sessions are held between 9am-3pm for the best lighting.

I will send you a questionnaire to learn more about your crew and start generating ideas for our session. We will set up a phone call or chat through text to start planning our time together! 

02.

Show time, baby! 
We are going to have so much fun laughing, exploring, dancing and playing--that hour is going to zoom by! While yes, we are going to get a few photos of everyone cheesin' at the camera, the majority of our time will be focusing on your family's connection. What you get in the end are love-soaked images to last forever. 

03.

The big reveal

After about 3-5 weeks (depending upon the season,) you will receive a gallery of 60+ photos for you to swoon over.

04.

Download your images + shop the store!

Upon your gallery delivery, you will have instant access to download your photos and shop the gallery store. This isn't only the fun part, but the most important one, too! Get your art up on the walls or chillin' on the coffee table for everyone to enjoy! 

How it works

Nikole s. 

We always have a wonderful experience with Morgan! From start to finish everything was perfect. The sessions are relaxed and fun. Morgan has an eye for candid moments which truly showcase the love and connection within our family. The photos were edited perfectly as well!

"From start to finish everything was perfect."

I'm happy to go anywhere (schedule depending!) Your session includes 60 miles from Bottineau, ND. Anything further, a travel fee will be added. Please shoot me a message for a custom quote if you're across/out of state!

Eeekk! I know you're pumped to see them! My turnaround time is anywhere from 2-4 weeks (depending on the season.) Once you get that happy mail saying your gallery is ready, you can then view your slideshow and choose your collection! 

Absolutely, as long as they're behaved and listen to commands! (I say this because I've spent an hour after a shoot looking for a runaway dog one time lol!) Our pets are apart of the family and deserve to be in the photos, too! 

I know ND weather is prettttty unpredictable. I typically don't reschedule unless it's crazy windy, severe weather, or any condition considered unsafe. If weather is looking a little iffy, we will for sure be in contact and reschedule if need be.

With having two germ monsters myself, I get that this happens! We will reschedule at your earliest convenience.
