Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

With my documentary-style wedding photography approach, I’ll support your wedding day by nurturing true connection and looking for the little moments you might miss in the blur.

I often hear from couples:
”We’ve never had our photos taken before.”
”My fiancé is shy, so I’m nervous about our wedding photos.”
”Wedding planning is stressful.”

I hear you! This is likely your first time planning a wedding. Luckily, as a wedding photographer, I’ve been part of planning dozens of weddings. Choosing me as your wedding photographer means you’re choosing my network and knowledge, as much as would be helpful for you.

If you’ve dreamt about a beautiful wedding since you were little, but still want your day to feel authentic and “lived-in,” we’re in good company.

Common Questions

  • My absolute primary goal as a wedding photographer is to provide you with images that have value in their quality and storytelling. If in the same time I could take 5 photos, we slow down to create one higher quality portrait that lasts with you for a lifetime, I feel like I've done my job well.

    The industry standard for a wedding is around 50 images per hour of photography coverage. I typically deliver between 50-65 per hour.

  • On your wedding day, I shoot your images to two SD cards so if something were to go wrong, we always have a duplicate copy in full definition.

    After your wedding day, I back up your images to a physical hard drive, online system, and my computer. Your images are safe in three locations.

    Once your images have been delivered, I recommend downloading and backing up your images to multiple locations. I guarantee your online gallery for up to 6 months.

  • Yes! I am a registered LLC in the state of Minnesota and am insured. I can easily and confidently work at any venue in the U.S. with these licenses.

  • My wedding photography packages start at $3,000.
