The face behind Jeannie Tribe Photography serving the Twin Cities, Minnesota + Western Wisconsin since 2017.
From a young age, I’ve always loved babies, children, and anything creative—which naturally led me to specialize in portraits from birth through the senior year and every meaningful stage in between.
As a mom of four, including one with special needs, I know how important it is to feel comfortable and cared for in every season of life. My goal is to create a portrait experience where you can settle in, feel taken care of, and simply be together—while I thoughtfully document the moments you’ll want to remember for years to come.
When I’m not in the studio, you can find me at a show choir performance, antiquing for unique finds, or planning our next travel adventure. I’m also a lifelong musician who plays the flute and loves to sing.
I can’t wait to welcome you in.
Hello, I'm Jeannie
The studio
Volunteering
I’ve been given the incredible opportunity to volunteer my photography services through the nonprofit organization On Angels’ Wings — providing free therapeutic photography for families whose child has received a life-limiting diagnosis or who experience the loss of a baby or child.
Through this work, I’m able to use my gifts to create meaningful images for families during some of the most fragile and emotional moments of their lives — ensuring they have something tangible to hold onto when memories feel too fleeting. On Angels’ Wings walks alongside families from pregnancy through a child’s 18th year, offering not only photography but ongoing grief-recovery and mental wellness support, always free of charge.
Teaching
With a background in early childhood education, teaching has always been close to my heart. In addition to serving families, I’m passionate about pouring into the next generation of photographers. I offer beginner photography classes right here at my Hastings studio, along with annual hands-on workshops designed to help photographers safely and confidently grow their newborn photography skills.
Teaching allows me to share not only the technical side of photography, but the patience, preparation, and client care that goes into creating a meaningful experience — especially when working with brand new babies.
