Hi, I'm Serena!

I'm a lifestyle, wedding, and senior photographer located in Mankato, Minnesota. I discovered my love of photography during my college years. A little over 4 years ago, I decided to take the leap and follow my dreams, and its been an incredible journey ever since. I absolutely love capturing life's beautiful moments and turning them into cherished memories. Family is everything to me, and I understand the importance of preserving those special connections. One of my biggest goals during a session is to make everyone feel comfortable while in front of the camera. I'm here to make YOU look your best!

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME

My days are spent with my 2 favorite people, my Fiancé Justin & our sweet 3 year old son.

My comfort show is New Girl or Vampire diaries, I could binge watch either anytime.

I love scary movies but will spend 80% of the movie covering my eyes because i am a wimp

If I had to pick one food to eat for the rest of my life it would 100% be ice cream.

I love reading, and I have a bad habit of starting a book and feeling the need to finish it the same day.
