Well, hello there! I’m Alanna Risser (fka Alanna Olson), a photographer based in the south metro of Minneapolis/St. Paul. Most of the work I capture is a blend of outdoor, in-home and various natural-light studio location sessions for families, couples and individuals around the Twin Cities.

As a mom to two young kids, my focus has shifted to family sessions, lifestyle in-home and in-hospital newborn sessions, various portrait sessions and smaller, more intimate weddings. My editing style will lean into rich, bold tones with an artistic focus and I will not over-edit you, or your family’s true beauty. I hope to create a sense of magic in every session. Please look through my work and make sure my style is a good fit for your vision before booking a session. My goals are always to keep you comfortable, to keep your session laid-back, and to provide beautiful & authentic images to help you document this point in your life.

Please reach out by email or through the ‘contact’ tab any time with inquiries, or to schedule a private half-hour or hour session. Alternatively, I do offer mini-session dates several times throughout the year, with set location and quick & convenient appointments- please reference my “minis” tab to view upcoming calendar dates for these mini sessions and you can book those directly through the link on each event detail page.
