Photography is more than a career to me, it's my passion. I want to give you an inspired photographic experience. ‍ Your wedding images should tell your story, not mine or anyone else's. The images should evoke the raw and honest emotions of the love you share. Through my lens, I strive to faithfully translate the love and emotion you feel into timeless and genuine images, so five, ten, or fifty years from the future you can relive that day the same way you experienced it. The timeless photographs will become your treasured and preserved works of art, ready to be gathered together in an album or hung on your walls.

I am absolutely head over heels in love with the stunning photos that I had the privilege of shooting with Kenny. It’s abundantly clear that he possesses an extraordinary talent that truly sets him apart. Kenny’s ability to capture moments is nothing short of remarkable. Each photograph he takes is a work of art, a perfect blend of creativity and technical expertise. His keen eye for detail, coupled with an innate understanding of light, composition, and subject, consistently results in exceptional images. Working with Kenny was an absolute pleasure. His professionalism and dedication to his craft were evident throughout the shoot. He created an atmosphere that allowed my personality to shine, resulting in photos that not only looked incredible but also felt authentic and true to who I am.

I've always been a creative at heart. I thrive when I am able to fulfill my passion of creating something beautiful that others will enjoy. I discovered my love for photographing portraits and couples after taking photos for friends and family, and the rest is history! My passion is to creatively capture the beauty and authentic personality of a person, couple, or family. When I'm not out photographing a couple or editing at my computer, I enjoy going out to the best new restaurant in the city, being outdoors, or planning a trip to a new destination to explore. I'm a lover of coffee, traveling, reading and anything outdoors.

Toly Dzyuba Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,450
  • Serves Apple Valley, MN

Hi, I’m Toly Dzyuba, a Minneapolis based wedding photographer with over 10 years of experience capturing love stories across Minnesota. From the scenic shores of Lake Superior to charming rustic barns in the countryside, and elegant celebrations in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. My approach is all about blending the beauty of each location with the raw emotion and joy of your special day, creating timeless, authentic images that truly reflect who you are as a couple, infused with purpose and soul

We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Toly to photograph our wedding! From the moment we stumbled upon his portfolio, we were captivated by his ability to capture moments with such precision and artistry. His photos struck us as vivid, photorealistic memories that truly reflect how we perceive things in person. Unlike other photographers who we felt were over-editing or altering the natural beauty of a moment, Toly's choices in terms of setting, lighting, and editing style really capture those true vibrant colors while keeps everything authentic and timeless. Our first meeting with Toly for a consultation confirmed our choice. He was professional, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. His pricing was competitive and flexible to fit any budget or event. We did our engagement photos with him, and the results were perfect. That helped us get used to being photographed and find the poses we loved, and Toly delivered the photos quickly so we could use them for our save-the-dates. Closer to the wedding, Toly was a pro at helping us plan the big day, making sure the time and place was right for the portraits to get that perfect natural lighting. His scheduling helped put us at ease that he'd be able to capture all of those key moments, and that we could make sure everyone knew exactly when and where to be for formal photos. During the wedding itself, he was a calm, reassuring presence who organized the big photos really efficiently and professionally, and just captured every little moment perfectly without us needing to worry about a thing throughout the day. Toly is also just a great guy. There was even a moment of crisis (unbeknownst to me at the time) when my wife Katherine had trouble with the zipper on her wedding dress, and Toly was the only one able to fix it! His quick thinking and support were beyond what we could have asked for. Now, as we look back on our wedding day, we have over 800 breathtaking photos that bring back all the emotions, joy, and beauty of that special day. Toly, thank you for everything—you truly made our day unforgettable, and we can't recommend you enough! To anyone reading, my advice would be to just take a look at his portfolio, and set up a consultation ASAP! My wife and I plan to use him for all of our photo sessions going forward.

I have always been captured by the beauty of nature and flowers. There is something miraculous and poetic in the way flowers grow out of the dirt and bring such variety and delight. ​​​​​​​​ This is why we incorporate flowers into the most pivotal moments in our lives. Flowers are symbols of all the potential in these moments; they speak to all the possibility of our lives while reminding us that, though beautiful, life is fragile. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​Participating in this language of flowers is what I love to do with Bedecked. Capturing and framing life’s significant moments with all the beauty and mystery of flowers!

Becca was so much fun to work with and every detail, from the boutonnieres to the wedding arch, were beautiful and executed with creativity.

Hi there, my name is Sophie! I'm a Minnesota based couple/wedding photographer but am happy to travel wherever you need me. I would describe myself as organized and determined, yet bubbly and laidback at the same time.

We booked Sophie after meeting with a handful of photographers who just weren’t a good fit for us personality wise. Sophie is easygoing, punctual, thorough, and professional. On our day, Sophie was early, had such a bubbly, upbeat positive attitude and was SO helpful to us. She was often the first person to offer to help us with set up and take down. Our pictures turned out even better than we had hoped, and all of the crucial moments throughout the day were captured exactly as how we experienced them. Sophie was not only an amazing photographer, but a huge asset to us on our wedding day and we could not be happier with her services!

  • Serves Apple Valley, MN

Born in the French Alps and growing up together with my 4 siblings, in a stone house on the side of a mountain, it wasn't difficult to be moved by the beauty that surrounded me. It wasn't long until I turned to imagery as a means of interaction with the visual world around me and to use it as a means of communication with others. I hope to use the power of the image to make a difference and be a part of something bigger than myself. Camera in hand I hope to give you a chance to share and relive your special moments of life through the images we create together. Lets make something.

Morey and Miriam were fantastic to have as first and second shooters on our wedding day. Both my husband and I have large extended families, and our goal was to use the occasion to get everyone together for group photos (pre-COVID). It was a huge hassle, and took FOREVER to get everyone in the right spot but Morey didn't settle for less than great shot (even when people were goofing around and being difficult). Our sunset hour session was amazing. My husband and I are not natural in front of the camera, so I was so thankful we got to work with a photographer who is chill but decisive and who captured some really beautiful moments for us.

Cole Thomas is a pianist, guitarist, and singer with the ability to perform any song for any part of your wedding. Need a classical piece for your wedding party to process in to? No problem.

With over a decade of experience performing for ceremonies and receptions, Cole Thomas is your one stop music vendor.

Cole absolutely delighted and exceeded our wildest expectations at our wedding. He embraced the costume theme of our reception, performed significantly more music than we had expected (in a good way), and was the absolute heart and soul of our party. He improvised and adapted to every unique situation on the night with a musical and social sense of awareness that we continue to be grateful for. He even graciously agreed to play alongside Andrea's 94 year old grandmother on her accordion. Grandma is still beaming from this experience, and trust me, she's a hard woman to please. Seriously. I don't think we can ever repay him for the joy and energy he brought to our night. I couldn't get to the bar for a drink without answering the question: "Where did you FIND this guy?!" half a dozen times.

I don’t often leave reviews, but this is truly a remarkable crew to work with. Booking with Voyageur Motion Pictures should be at the top of your “getting married” priority list. We eloped in Glacier National Park summer of 2020. The team at Voyageur Motion Pictures were the ONLY ones present for our elopement outside of my spouse and I. Having such a small group, the energy of everyone involved is incredibly important. They were so fun to be around! They made us relax and enjoy the process and we NEEDED that outside energy. We laughed SO much. We cried. We celebrated. We continue to laugh and cry watching and re-watching our videos with our friends and family. Because of the work of Voyageur Motion Pictures, we had one of the best days of our lives and we get to relive it whenever we watch our videos. After the day has come and passed, having video will mean so much to you. We cherish our videos above any photo taken that day.

They are incredibly talented in their craft. They know how to make posing for video a natural part of the day. They are fun, vibrant humans with a gift for making you feel special. They love love.

You can talk to one person and plan your ceremony with our Officants and the rest of the day Class Act providing an MC/Party Coordinator with a Dj. One call, one person to plan with simple, easy and fun. Now that is Amazing

My finance’ had seen Class act at another family wedding, but it was before my time. He talked very highly about how much fun they were, but I still needed to be convinced. So we talked to them and then interviewed them and then it was very easy to decide that they were the right people for us. One of the things they let us know right off the bat was that they were working for us and even though other family members might have some ideas they would give us the final say in all matters relative to our big day. So we started out with their wedding officiant and DJ for an outdoor wedding. We wanted short, sweet and simple while having some amount of levity and romance and they delivered. The ceremony we just right. We then progressed to our social hour and dinner. Class Act moved the sound system they used for the ceremony in the outdoor dining area while keeping the larger system set up inside with the bar and dance area. The announcements came over both systems so that everyone could be part of the experience. At the diner we did some kissing games where the guests needed to entertain us and we judged their performance with the kiss. Everyone was laughing the whole time. They released tables and escorted the guests to the indoor buffet table. I cannot remember all the fun things that went on during dinner, but my guests really embraced the experience. Once the dinner was all done Class Act had the guests make two lines and we walked between them from the outside dinner tables to the dance floor then they all flowed in to watch us. We felt so special and supported. It was also brilliant because it got all the people into the dance area and the dance took off like a flash. So we danced all night it was and amazing time. Too bad I only get to do this once. Maybe we will have to have an Anniversary party. Olivia and Sam

If I could, I'd be doing this in person while sitting on my front porch overlooking our breathtaking 64-acre ranch in Hillman, MN that God has blessed us with. So, imagine we are doing that while I invite you into my world for just a bit. I'm Mindi with Mindi Jennings Photography. My husband, my boys and I own Pleasant Pastures Weddings & Events on our ranch property. We also run a small herd of cattle and sheep. I have taken my love of photography and created a business. I like to keep things simple, authentic & fun with true to color photographs.

Mindi is an amazing photographer and a great communicator. She will get the pictures you want while having fun. Highly recommend!

I am a trained pianist with a passion for sharing music with others. I enjoy playing a wide variety of genres including pop, classical, Christian/gospel, and jazz and take many influences from musical theatre and pop culture performances.

Kyara was wonderful to work with and the music so professional. She really helped craft our prelude, processional, and recessional to fit our wedding style and structure. Kyara provided suggestions but also gave us freedom to decide the music we wanted to hear. Kyara’s contract and booking process was seamless, her positivity the day of was noticeable, and her kindness sincere. Definitely recommend!

LOVE,LOVE,LOVE when Alicia photographs a wedding on the farm. She has been the only photographer we invite to our open houses for new couples as well. Her style is young, fun, romantic,fresh and timeless all in one. We wish all our couples would book her. We’ve talked pricing with Alicia because that is important to budget conscious couples. They want quality work at reasonable prices. Great price points. Hey look, when all other things go wrong at a wedding, the photos are the one thing you want done right! Don’t skimp!! Highly recommend!!!

Hi all, I’m Erin! I’m a wedding photographer based in Minneapolis but I’m always up for a destination or travel wedding/elopement. I feel my favorite images are always ones that are captured vs manufactured and embracing the true interactions between the couple, their friends and family. I LOVE love and I’ll probably cry at your wedding, all those feels get me.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't imagine anyone better to work with for our wedding pics. Erin effortlessly met our vibe and helped us keep everything calm, cool, and moving right along. She was essential in helping us nail down a timeline that maximized our priorities but also resulted in an incredible variety of photos that perfectly captured the day. We ended up with so many photos we loved that our moms scheduled a day to reminisce on the wedding and go back through the pics together. Everything 10/10, can't recommend enough!

I love capturing the moments that aren't posed or planned but that are special and YOU. I want you to be able to FEEL something when you look at my images. Your special day is unique and should be captured in a way that makes you remember every little moment as it was.

Macie does an amazing job capturing all of those special moments between poses. The moments that are raw and make you feel something when you look at them. The photos that Macie took on my wedding day tell a story and I am forever grateful to her. The photos are beautiful and edited wonderfully. I get to relive my wedding day as many times as I’d like through those photos. Also, Macie is a such a kind and genuine person. She is easy to work with and does an amazing job. I could not recommend Macie enough.

I was born and raised in Minnesota and absolutely love being able to photograph in the 4 seasons we have here! I have had a passion for photography since I was a little girl and owned a little blue Sony digital camera. I would capture times spent with family on vacation and take pictures with my friends. My mom got me into scrap booking at a young age, so I knew growing up I wanted to continue capturing all the special moments of not only my life but now others too!

From our first interaction with Photos by Morgan Ann, we were impressed by her concise, detailed, and timely communication. She listened carefully to understand our vision for the day and provided creative ideas to capture our special moments. On the wedding day, her efficient, purposeful, and skilled approach ensured the photography flowed seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration. The final images beautifully reflect the joy and love of our wedding, and we are thrilled with the exceptional value Photos by Morgan Ann provided. We highly recommend them to any couple seeking an experienced, professional photography team to document their big day.

My approach to photography is rooted in a desire to illustrate the emotions and stories of my clients in a way that reflects the honesty of their experiences. I adore capturing the uniqueness of each person I work with. It is by encouraging my clients to honor their story, their truest selves are reflected in these photographs.

Lauren was so amazing from the day we met her until the day we got our photos after our wedding! She did our engagement and wedding photos. She was so accommodating with us and very flexible as we changed a lot of our wedding plans due to covid. She was easy to communicate with and so so friendly! She felt like someone we had known forever and made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day. We were so pleased with how our photos turned out and how fast we got them back! Lauren knows what she's doing and is very professional while also being personable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

I’m Colby (he/him), your local neighborhood dog parent/beer lover/former mascot/barbershop singer/wedding and elopement photographer. My love language is shouting compliments at you. I love people and hate crowds. I prefer long hikes in the mountains to ones on the beach, but both are better than sitting at home. I really, really don’t like having my photo taken - and if we have that in common, we might work really well together.

Colby delivers the best possible product in the field. The lighting, composition and quality of his photos are unmatched. But he doesn't stop there... The communication from the booking date, lead up to shoot, and execution on the day is what makes Colby Campbell Photography an immersive experience that is unmatched.
