Services
Rochester, Minnesota's most trusted portrait photographer will work with you to create art from your life. Whether it's a baby being born, having a birthday, family portraits or a child going off to college. I help busy families stop time, just for a moment. You're pregnant with your first, maybe second, third or even fourth baby.
You're unique, there is no one else like you! That's why I custom design all my sessions to match the style and personality of each senior. What better way to celebrate your senior than to invest in a custom portrait session that will last for generations? Get them done, before they are gone and off to college!
Your kids will have a sense of belonging and worth of self from seeing themselves on the walls. I will help you plan clothing, location for your shoot as well as where in your home you would like to have your portraits. Wall art is our largest request for family portraits. Either a single larger image, or a grouping of multiple smaller images.
I'll make it easy for you! I know how busy you are. I get it! The headshot session takes at most about 30 minutes, unless we are doing a larger signature branding session. At the end of your session, I will show you your images instantly and you can pick your favorites. I will then do a final retouch to your images and send them via dropbox or online gallery.

Erin is amazing and wants to personalize each experience for you/your family. She is extremely personable and takes the time to get to know you/your family outside of just taking your photos. She is very responsive and will respond to texts at all hours if she is awake/free. She has been able to create the perfect images for us. We look forward to many more photo sessions with Erin in the future.

I googled Rochester, MN newborn and maternity photographers and came across Erin Young’s Photography. I was blown away by the artistry and creativity of her work. Then I saw that she has 20 years of experience and knew she was someone I wanted to have capture this time in my family’s lives. I submitted an email to her page hoping someone would message me back and she messaged me back within 24 hours to set up a consultation. When I met her, she was very positive and had understood my husband and I’s vision for our newborn shoot. I wasn’t planning on doing a maternity shoot but she incorporated

Erin is simply terrific! She is professional, kind, patient, responsive, and makes you feel instantly comfortable. I completely trusted her with my 1 week old. Safety and comfort were obviously her first objective during the newborn session. The prints can be expensive, but you get what you pay for and there is no minimum required. The quality of her photos are 5 stars! Highly recommend Erin Young Portrait Design

This was my first time working with Erin. After hearing great reviews and seeing her amazing work, I decided to book a maternity and a newborn session. She did not disappoint! From our first meeting through our ordering appointment, Erin was very pleasant and professional. The pictures turned out great and I can’t wait to receive our order. Highly recommend!

It has been so amazing to work with Erin Young. We did our maternity and newborn sessions with her. I also got to do her new feature of belly casting/baby in the belly cast. All of pictures are so beautiful and amazing. Erin has a great eye and is so talent. I highly recommend her. She is worth every penny!

Erin is a phenomenal photographer, and we loved working with her for our 2nd child’s newborn photo session. We have worked with several different professional photographers in the past, including a few here in Rochester, and in our opinion Erin is the best we have worked with. She is a true artist and has a great eye for lighting and photo composition. The photos she took and the album she made from the shoot were stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on them. I highly recommend her without any reservations!

My husband and I got our son's newborn photos done by Erin and I wish I could describe how incredible the experience was. From our very first time meeting Erin at our consultation appointment, she always listened and explained everything very well and she always made us feel very comfortable. The amount of time she spent posing and working with our son was incredible. It is obvious she is a professional and one of the very best. As someone who was on the fence about investing in newborn photos, it was beyond worth it!

Erin did a WONDERFUL job photographing our precious little peanut! From the very beginning of preparing for the shoot all the way through to the ordering appointment Erin was outstanding. She guided me on what outfits I should look at for the style I was going for and gave me tips on foods I should eat to make sure not to upset my little ones belly and make him sleepy for the shoot. She went quick and was super great at posing us during the family shots which was fabulous cause momma got toasty in the cozy warm studio meant for babies. After the family shots, my husband and I were able to take

I'm a wedding professional that has worked with Erin from Fine Exposures for many different weddings and photo shoots. She is a certified and professional photographer that captures your wedding/event beautifully. Her pictures tell a story and capture all of the emotions of your big day so much so that you feel those emotions as you're looking through her albums. She is so personable and fun to work with. She has amazing ideas and suggestions to get the right shots and keeps the whole day running smoothly and organized. Erin also creates very artistic and stunning albums and look books and has
