• Google review: Highly recommend Twin Cities Headshots. I had a wonderful experience with Bethany! She made the process of getting corporate headshots quick and painless and I’m so pleased with the results. Their light-filled studio was easy to get to and Bethany turned my proofs around quickly. Very pleased!

• Google review: Working with Bethany was a breeze. Twin Cities Headshots was quick to respond and schedule my photos. When I had an unexpected, last-minute time conflict, they were extremely understanding and accommodating (and they didn't even charge me extra despite my repeated offers!). They were attentive to my ideas for the photo shoot and offered their own expertise and recommendations as well. I am thrilled with the final headshots. All in all, I could not imagine a more seamless process. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with them!

• Google review: Jeannine is absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning of the planning process, she brings such intention and creativity that you know you’re in good hands. She doesn’t just take photos—she tells a story and brings your vision to life with a level of excellence that exceeds expectations every time. She’s done my brand shoot for my salon The Curl District, and more recently captured the most beautiful portrait session of my son. The images were so special and truly captured his personality in the most vibrant way. Her eye for detail, the way she plays with color, lighting, and emotion—it’s truly art. She makes you feel seen, celebrated, and confident in front of the camera, which makes the whole process feel effortless. Beyond her talent, Jeannine is just a joy to work with. She’s professional, kind, and genuinely cares about the people she shoots. Her studio, Block Portrait Studios in Saint Paul, is a gem, and I’m so grateful I get to create in such an inspiring space thanks to her. Whether it’s for business, family, or personal branding—book her. You won’t regret it.

• Google review: Jeannine is amazing! She is so very talented and I love her style! I've done multiple photo sessions with her: head shots, team portraits, pet portraits, family portraits... and she always brings such great energy and makes me feel comfortable in front of the camera! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful photo experience!

• Google review: 5/5 stars—I can't say enough good things about working with Kyra Nygard! She is the goto for professional headshots. Kyra immediately puts you at ease with her warm, personable approach, she's incredibly talented at directing poses and lighting in a way that feels natural rather than stiff or awkward. She specializes in headshots and portraits right here in St. Paul (with a beautiful studio setup full of creative options), and it shows in the results: the photos are high-quality, magazine-worthy, and captures exactly the confident, approachable vibe for LinkedIn and websites. The whole process is smooth, from booking to the fun session to quick turnaround on the edited images, and she really listens to what you're going for. If you're in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and looking for an outstanding photographer for professional headshots, personal portraits, or anything in between, Kyra is the real deal. I wouldn't hesitate to book her or recommend her to friends!

• Google review: I met Kyra at a corporate conference where she was doing headshots for attendees. Kyra automatically made me feel at ease in front of the camera, gave great direction on how to pose, and was super efficient. She was also kind and encouraging while doing it! Would highly recommend!

• Google review: I had a wonderful experience using Rod Wilson as a photographer to update my photos for my law firm website. He was referred to me by another professional who works with lawyers for marketing. Rod uses a "storyboard" method which really stands out compared to your average professional headshot with a white background. He even had the idea of traveling to a nearby outdoor location to integrate the community where my office is located. I loved seeing his creative ideas at work. He put me at ease with his friendly demeanor and clear instructions during the shoot. I would definitely recommend Rod to all of my colleagues, family and friends!

• Google review: Rod actually picks up the phone! (so many photographers don't now days) Working with these guys was great! I was able to set up my appointment in a timely manner, his demeanor was professional and I got great results. I'm a former commercial photographer who is heavier than I'd like to admit right now. In consequence, I've got high standards and ego reasons to dislike any photo of me. I like the photos of me. I love the techniques he accomplished and feel motivated to get serious about weightless so I can do another shoot where I feel like I look good AND the photos are good. He got the images to me really quickly and had flexible ways of receiving payment. Rule 1: make it easy for customers to give you their money. He follows rule one and has a great product. I know this is all over the place, but I'm seriously so happy about what I got. Thank you!

• Google review: Jason did a wonderful job on my headshots. I'm normally uncomfortable around cameras and bright lights, but he made me feel comfortable quickly. His prices are reasonable with high quality results. The shoot took about an hour at his studio. I will refer my friends to him when they need photography services!

• Google review: I couldn't be more pleased with the experience and results from my headshot photo shoot with Jason Player Photography. His professionalism was unmatched and his timeliness of getting me final images in many useful formats was shockingly fast! His studio is extremely comfortable and convenient, as is his "bedside manner", for those of us not comfortable in front of a camera. Jason made this process not only painless, but fun as well! Thank you...I cannot recommend you enough!!!

• Google review: Jeff was absolutely fantastic throughout every aspect of my son's senior photo shoot. From the beginning, we communicated back and forth to ensure Jeff would be a good fit for my son, who is autistic. Jeff immediately put me at ease by expressing a genuine interest in learning more about my son and his passions. He even shared examples of his work with other autistic kids, which was incredibly reassuring. Scheduling with Jeff was seamless, and when it came time for the session, he knew all the best spots to capture stunning photos. He was so kind and patient with my son, and I was truly impressed by the natural smiles he was able to bring out. The final photos are absolutely breathtaking—Jeff has an incredible eye for lighting and composition. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Jeff again. He made what could have been a stressful experience feel joyful and memorable.

• Google review: We chose Jeff for senior pics. He is extremely talented! He is professional, yet makes the photo session so much fun! He has a great eye for perfect lighting, poses, and photo locations. Jeff communicates timely and always willing to help with all questions. We highly recommend him for all of your photo needs!!

• Google review: Really great working with Tim! I told him the vibe and personality that I wanted to convey in my headshots and he suggested a great locale! I was initially nervous but Tim has such an ease about him that made me feel comfortable. I thought he captured a bunch of great shots - I ended up buying an extra shot because they all look so great (that's a good problem to have!). It was a fun day!

• Google review: Truly a wonderful guy. We hired Tim to take our engagement photos and we were so enamored that we hired him back for our wedding! We can’t endorse him enough. Neither my fiancé nor I are good “posers” but Tim made us feel so comfortable - we love him, 10/10!

• Google review: Heidi is easy-going and patient, she made me feel relaxed and comfortable to smile and have fun at my photo session. Glad I found someone local and professional to take some great photos.

• Google review: Heidi is a truly wonderful photographer. Her eye for composition and detail is wonderful. My daughter was nervous about having her photo taken outside, in public, by a stranger - she is very shy. But Heidi had her comfortable in moments and therefore was able to truly capture my daughters personality in a photo. Not an easy thing to do. We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Booking was easy - Heidi was very prompt in responding to our request. She was flexible with scheduling - hot summer days are not fun to photograph in. Proofs were available quickly and the process of choosing the prints we wanted was fun (though hard because of all of the great options). Finished photos are wonderful. I highly recommend Heidi for your special family portraits.

• Google review: Wendy was so wonderful and welcoming!! The space was really nice and my photos came out beautifully. I got some headshots taken for LinkedIn, but she does all kinds of photo shoots. Really great experience, will be returning in the future!

• Google review: Wendy takes headshots and any shots you’re looking for! She’s so fun and lively and has wonderful energy that makes you feel alive, seen and safe to be authentically YOU in your photos. She’s got props, a billion background colors, racks of shoes, a wardrobe to choose from and even a professional makeup artist to make you look like a celebrity! It was an excellent experience to be remembered and I’ll recommend her to any and all of my friends family and ANYONE WITH A FACE!

• Google review: I’d highly recommend Megan! I’d never had professional work headshots taken, and realized it was time to upgrade from the 8+ year-old cropped photo I’d been using on social media. Megan made me feel relaxed and comfortable during our photo session, and had a great eye for color to complement my attire selections. The makeup artist was fabulous, too. The resulting photos more than met my professional needs and, most importantly, captured me in a way that I felt was authentic. So pleased!

• Google review: Megan is an extremely gifted photographer. She not only takes terrific artistic photos, but she has the gift of making everyone both lookg great and feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her final art, whether it be a senior photo, family photos or a headshot are simply wonderful. ( we were lucky to have her do all the above). I highly, highly recommend Megan.
